THE DAILY ‘ALASKA EMPIRE, MOND/ YiMAY;8,:1933. WHEN YOU BUY in Juneau You not only help the community in which you live but help yourself by saving money. WHY SEND AWAY FOR FURNITURE When you can buy the same article for less money at home? A comparison of prices may surprisé you but it will convince you that we are right.

An - educational campalgn is being conducted thioughout fiie nation to teach pedple the necessity of loyalty“to ‘their ‘own ‘coumtry. Loyalty to our own country. means more than loyalty to the Flag and to the Government. It means loyalty to our .traditions, our business-and everything that conduces to our spiritual, inteHectual apd material welfare. The moral effect of su¢h a campaign is beyond computation. ~We have drifted along for years, satisfied in our own minds that we lead .the world in everything, in patriotism, culture, -education; prosperity. and all .that distinguishes a Wt people and puts them in the van of progress. We have suddenly awakened to find that instead of ‘leading in prosperity as our great .ristural re- sources would entitle us,of ‘all nations in ithe world we are suffering the most from the effects of depression. ‘We have learned that our great European com- petitors have led us in patriotism and intelligent self«interest, and have for months been conducting an intensive campaign ,to educate their people. to buy at home and ‘patronize 'their own industriés, thus keeping their own workmen employed -and making their own countries prosperous. It is needless here to call attentian to the results .of such a policy. It stares us in-'the face every day. in .silent canneries, idle machinery, “de- serted logging camps and mining communities, theu- sands -of men out;ef -work and 'familles subsisting through eharity. 1s there no analogy between the position in whieh our nation finds itself and that of our: oewn .com- munities in Alaska? Is it not just as essential that the people of Alaska, and Juneau, should protect thelr interests, safeguard -theilr business and lend their efforts. to that end as that the people of the United 'States should unite to bring..prosperity to. their country? And is it not just as true that .if -we meglect | to safeguard our own interests to build ‘up our own business and stimulate” our, own trade, that those districts that are far-sighted and enserprising enough to do these things will lead us in business advance- ment, growth and prospetity? It is because The Empire feels that to be . the case, and .that Alaska has made the,same mistake as has our nation, that it has thought the present an opportune time to appeal to.the.people of the Territory to Buy Americdn—Buy -Alaskan,. Buy Ju- neau. We hope that a campaign of this. kind will focus mttention of -our gesidents ‘upon . their own section .and on. the need of patronizlng our own business institutions. A poliey, of this kind -will result in better stores, a hbigger shopping .enter, and nrore “cireulation ‘of money, in’ our town where we ‘will see it again. Buy ' American—Buy Alaskan—Buy Juneau.
