In fact, Napolean is qubted as having said on one occasion that history is but a pack of lies. “Raivertiaicg, according to the dic- tionary is “to give public notice to”, but this defiiition is inadequate and the Ad- yertising Federation of America suggests that “Advertising is the business of creet- ing a desire for, aud accomp ishing the sale of merchandise or service.” Certainly we are™not lawless; we've got mors Igws than you can shake a stick at, And we don’t even know when we break "em; it would take a week on an eight-hour shift to read ‘em all.

The Winter Haven Daily Chief is “‘sur- prised and disappointed at the apnounce- ment that Ruth Bryan Oweii will vote for that beer bill in the December short term of congress.” The Chief should remember that the “wise change their minds often, fools never,” and that Mrs. Owen still rep- resents the people of the Fourth district— not her own idesse-and that the people of her district have voted for a change in the prohibition lew. She is right in casting her vote as directed by her constituents.— Jasper News. Mrs. Owen favored prohjbi- tion until it was too late. She stil] Tepr resents the Fourth Congressional district and will obey the mandate of the peeple, and justly so, IS CAPITAL OVERPAID? Some of our economists declare that | ithe trouble of the world today is due as | much to the overpayment of capital ds it lis to the over-production improved | machinery. by of dollars which accumulated in the hands of a comparative few, haye impoverished the people of the world because of the terrific ixterest cost of the money so em-! ployed in the business world. Prior to the world war, the accepted vate of return on inyested capital was 6| per cent. The world war, while at the same time destroying intrinsic | yalues, at its close found the amount of world capital practically doubled. The six per cent return on capital, based on the pre-war supply, should have been reduced to 3 per cent, due to the doubling of the available amount. This seems to be simple arithmetic. Yet capital, instead of accepting an earning rate of 3 per cent, in reality, by the manipulation of high finance, insisted on a return of many times this amount. There would seem to be something in favor of accepting the theory of these economists. A program that would seem to have its strong’ points would be to stert with the establishment of a legal rate of interest at 3 per cent. As fast as the money could be borrowed at this rate, it should be used to refund interest beariig colirations of al’ kinds. Lower interest charges, more workers and freedom from unfair competition should restore prosperity to the American people. And if the program were to be universally adopted, it would a working balarce and prosperity to the en- tire world. A great improvement in the world’s economic structure ~vould be possible it capital could be induced to accept a 8 per cent return as its rightful earning. Such a return on capital, were it gen- erally accepted, wou'd permit the refund- ing of much of the indebtedness. of the commuuity, corporation, state and. nation, with a consequent lowered interest. cost to the taxpayers and a real relief from present day tax burdens. The country must reduce its interest payments in some such manner if a finan- cial catastrophe is to be avoided. The lowered cost of capital would benefit everybody. The worker could be paid a higher percentage of the profits of the business, and capital would be bene- fited by the securjty and protection which it would enjoy as the result of a prosperous and contented people, . 3 w HOME GIRLS ee FILMS College girls from New York to Cali- fornia are arising to open war on being made discreditable figures in overdrawn movies and scandal mongering news- papers. Co-eds resent such film scenes of campus life and point to the size of. this fall’s new home economics classes in prac- tically all the country’s colleges and uni- versities as proof that the cigarette-smok- ing, bottle-brandishing set in the microscopic m‘yority. “More giris, by far, are studying the mechanics of a washing machine than un- derstand the inner workings of a motor car,” says one authority. “Classes of earn- est-minded girls are learning every step of how to wash clothes, with equipment sup- plied by washer makers as part of recita- tion room equipment. “Even in ‘arty’ Greenwich Village, girls in New York University’s school of oduca- tion home economics classes swish gar- ments clean in washers, learning the easy, Sanitary short-cuts to avoid oldfime drud- gery, just as hundreds of thousands of their mothers have done. “For every girl idling her time away, hundreds are thus earne:* ly training them- selves to exce] as future home- makers by using the methanical aids wlich already save tfme and money for so many others,” Al Smith is certainly not a good ad- vertisement for book-worms.
