This newspaper takes pleasure in an- nouncing for this city and vicinity that it will take part in a Nation-wide distribu- tion of a book that will appeal instantly to every American. The book is THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT TO- DAY, by Frederic J. Haskin. Impressed with the great value of this new and lat- est work on the Government and its activ- ities, we consider it a public service to afford all of our readers the opportunity to receive a first edition copy at a cost within the reach of all. This sale is not conducted by this newspaper with the thought of gain. The prime reason for undertaking it is the desire to help every citizen keep abreast of the times in the intricate and changing affairs of Govern- ment. The Page is Turning. A new chapter in Government is being written. The traditions, standards, and methods with which men have become familiar are being outmoded. Everywhere the page is turning. How far will the United States depart from its ancient way? This Government has changed radi- cally since March of 1933 —more than it changed in the first century and a half of its existence—and this book tells of these changes. Do you fly the Blue Eagle? Why? Do you subscribe to the code author- ity of your industry or business? Why? Do you know that the Section 7 (2), of NIRA affects you? Why? It's a big word—that “Why?”’ Get the answer! It’sin this new book. Everybody has his problem today— banker, industrialist, farmer, business man, all employers, all employes, all un- employed. This book tells of these problems, and explains how your Government is trying to help you solve them. .The Alphabet Bureaus. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, tak- ing office in the midst of the most wide- spread economic derangement ever experi- enced by the American people, instituted many changesin the Government. Whole new batteries of departmental machinery, almost equal in extent and powers to those which, up to 1933, constituted the American Government, were brought in- to being. They touch directly or indi- rectly the interests of every citizen—they reach straight to YOU. These agencies multiplied with such rapidity that they became popularly known as the ALPHA- BET BUREAUS. ; Your Copy is Waiting. Every American wants to know what these Bureaus are for, and what they are designed to do. This new book, THE DAY, will tell you in detail when you receive YOUR copy. AMERICAN GOVERNMENT - TODAY Frederic J. Haskin Mr. Haskin Will Autograph All Books That Are Immediately Ordered by Mail Persons who own previous books by M. Haskin on the subject of Government must not confuse this latest issue with the ones they have. This is a new book with a new title, bringing all of the per- manent departments of the Federal Gov- ernment up to date, and giving a detailed account of the new Alphabet Bureaus. To read this book is to know your Wash- ington—it shows Uncle Sam with his sleeves rolled up in his great workshop. It is a graphic picture of this mighty Government's valiant efforts to alleviate the distress of its people—to increase em- ployment, to feed those who are hungry, to clothe those who are not clad, and to shelter those who are homeless. Mr. Haskin, who answers questions, writes articles, and produces books from Washington, D. C., has a unique qualifi- cation for the great task he has just com- pleted. His many years in Washington have brought him into close contact with all branches and departments of the Gov- ernment from the office of the President in the White House, to the Capitol, and to the offices of cabinet members and bureau chiefs. Describing the workings of the great machinery of Government is no new task for Mr. Haskin. His former books have run into over 100 editions and have enjoyed a distribution of well over a million copies. No Propaganda. Most important—this book is written without bias or prejudice. Mr. Haskin holds no brief for or against anything the Government has done or is doing. He merely tells you about it. He tells it in crisp narrative style that all who read can understand. Itisthe book of the hour for you, whoever and wherever you are. Books at Star Office.
