REATL EDITOR DISCUSSES FARMERS' PROFITS 1in tne Central Union Mission Chapel, _ Virginia Press Association Midwinter Meetings Hears "t Plea for High Levels. ! By the Associated Press. RICHMOND, Va., January 19.—“If | we in Virginia do not maintain the | same sort of price level here as in other | parts of the country it simply means | that gradually we shall deplete our State of wealth, that we are being all the time outbargained by ‘the rest of the country,” declared Paul H. Apfle- by, publisher of the News Journal, East Radford, Va,, in a talk yesterday before | the Midwinter meeting of the Virginia Press Association being held here. Mr. Appleby spoke on the subject. “A Right | Price Level and Sound Practice.” A higher economic standard, he said, | would be of outstanding advaniage (o the State. “We need to preach the same | gospel (as applied to newspapers) for the State at large. When I came to Vir- ginia my predecessors kept saying to me, ‘You can’t do that here.” Now why shouldn’t I be able to do anything n Virginia_that is sound practice else- where? Do we want to admit for a m ment that Virginia is in some way in- ferior or on a lower living standard for | editors and everybody else? Why should it be? National Price Levels. “Here in Virginia we buy radios and | cars * * * and vacuum cleanersand a million other things made in other parts of the country. We buy them at na- tionally established prices, prices that return sound profit to everybody all down the line, pay good wages to work- ers in the factories producing them. If| we do not maintgin the same sort of price level here simply means that gradually we shall deplete our State of wealth, that we are being all the time outbargained by the rest of the country. In just the same way, if we do not maintain the right sort of price level in newspapering we are damaging the craft we love, are being outbargained by everybody else.” In speaking incidentally of farm re- lief Mr. Appleby said: “Much has been said for the last few years about farm relief, and it is a matter in which I am much interested. Many persons dismiss it all by saying that if the farm- ers would only work harder and not buy cars and radioes, they would need no relief. Lower Plane Feared. “If farmers accept that sort of judg- ment. they will simply lower the plane on which they compete for a place in the economic sun, and in the long run they will get less money—not more. “Why shouldn't they have cars and radioes and a high standard of living? 1t would be better for you and me, as well as better for the farmers, if all farmers would determine that they will live, not on a lover, but on a higher standard.” America today is in the midst of an era of business when service is the key- note of success, declared George .O. Leonard, director of media and research department, Campbell-Ewall Co., De- troit, Mich., in a talk. “Practically all of us,” he said, “who are selling commodities or a servics are in a buyer’s market today, and our major problems are, therefore, sales and advertising problems where a few years back they were quite largely those of production. “The big question today is how to sell zoods not how to build them.” DEATH DUE TO ACCIDENT. Coroner’s Jury Exonerates Student in McArdle Fatality. Edward Neal Anderson, 21-year-old student, was exonerated yesterday by the coroner’s jury at the inquest into the death of James P. McArdle, 69-year- old vice president of the Mutual Serial Building Association. McArdle died at Emergency Hospital Thursday as a re- sult of injuries sustained when struck by an automobile which Anderson was operating on the night of January 7. Coroner J. Ramsey Nevitt ordered the inquest to be held yesterday when he learned that McArdle had died. The juky after hearing the evidence decided that McArdle met his death acci- dentally.

MAN IS GIVEN SIXTY DAYS ON SECOND RUM CHARGE Morris Rosenberg, Convicted, Is Free Under $1,000 Bond on Appeal. Having been convicted of second offense possession by a Police Court jury last week, Morris Rosenberg, 1100 block street southeast, was yes- sentenced by Judge John P. McMahon to 60 days in jail. Defense Attorney Harry T. Whelan, contending that there was not suf- ficlent probable cause for the arrest, noted an appeal and obtained the re- lease of his client under bond of $1,000. Rosenberg was arrested October 16 by Sergt. O. J. Letterman's vice squad, who, upon entering a near beer saloon operated by the man, said they saw him emptying a bottle. Claiming they could tell by the smell that the contents was an intoxicant, the officers arrested Rosenberg. Although Assistant United States At- torney R. F. Camalier has twice before cenvicted Rosenberg of illegal posses- sion, an appeal from one of the convic- tions is now pending in the Court of Appeals, which prevents the filing of a third offense charge. Rosenberg asked for the mercy of the court before sentence was passed, caying he ~had a wife and seven children. These Beautiful $ Stone Homes have proved the sensa- tional Kome value of Mt.

Attempts to get away from Boston Harbor were so frequent that she all but lost track of the number of times, and the waiting was the most irksomie part of the proceeding. At Trepassy, Newfoundland, came more waiting, and a diet of “canned rabbit,” new to her and her two companions, whom she praised for the success of the crossing.
