We greatly admire newspapers of the 5 Unity States and the journalists who pirszent them to the public. Nevertheless, there-has developed quite a tendency, both onthe part of the newspapers and on the pert-of radio stations, and those connected hem, to over-emphasize incidental Sfacts and occasional occurences | so that She nét result isan untrue picture of the Zituation as an entity. . i TAX REDUCTION WAS UNWISE * The national debt totals around $250,- $0,000,000, with annual interest costing the people of this country about $5,500,- 200,000. = With this enormous debt, the people #f the United States are enjoying a dollor Drosperity that is unequaled. Incomes, Doth individual and corporate, are setting Dew high levels. * With these facts in mind, it becomes extremely difficult to understand why gpast Congresses saw fitto reduce taxes aipon two occasions. Certainly, it would Jiave been wiser to collect the taxes and Zut down the national debt. M4 It may be easy to carry an annual in- Terest charge of five and one-half billion Jiollars in the present economic eireum- tances but the burden will become in- reasingly severe if and when there is a Secession.

Most of the economists -have stated that a recession or a depression is not like-, ly to occur this year, and yet state, after | Pposition. The mind is fertile ott state has reported increases in unemploy- ment. New York City alone. has experi- enced decided falling off of employment during the last three months. During that, time the number of unemployed has gone up to 350,000. i Economists try to explain away. much of' the unemployment as due to the taking of: inventories or to the buyers’ strike which recently spread to hundreds of cities in the United States, Past performances sometimes provide the basis of reckoning regarding what the future may have in store. It should be re- called that the first sign of the coming of a depression after World War I was buy- ers’ strikes. Prices of foodstuffs and cloth- ing tumbled all over the country, and mer- chants with large stocks were hard hit. One packing house in Chicago reported that it had lost $1,000,000 a day for 125 suecessive days. Other companies or cor- Pporations also reported losses, though not on so large a scale. Those conditions brought about re- cession; from which the greater part of the country gradually recovered. Florida was an exception because of the beating it took during the real estate crash. But the Stock Market perked up and began the greatest boom in prices in the history, of the country. That boom forecast a depres- sion, and it struck destructively in 1929, when as many as 16,000,000 shares were sold on the Stock Market in a day. Your guess about the coming of a re- cession or depression would be only an- other guess. The best thing for all of us is to begin now to shear off all unnecessary expenditures due to the attitude that our present prosperity will continue forever. The Russians are ready to with all nations that do as gests. cooperate Moscow sug- STRESS “FREE COMPETITION” The current ills of Western Europe ”in large part result” from the: failure “to un- derstand the importance of free competi- tion,” declares Charles E. Wilson, presi- dent fo a large auto-making corporation. We are inclined to agree with the in- dustrialist that maintenance of free com- petition in this country is of widespread importance and that, perhaps, the failure to accomplish this in Western Europe had a harmful effect upon that section’s econ- omy. r In the preservation of competition, it is necessary for the leaders of ‘American economy to positively promote it and about the best way that this can be done is to actively oppose the formation of monopol- ies by large corporations. In calling attention to this viewpoint, we cheerfully admit that the automobile industry, asa whole, has not yet been monopolized. There seems to exist, to the uninformed at least, real competition be- tween the makers of automobiles. Since this industry has done so well, without monopoly and without the protection of tariffs, it offers a striking example of the private enterprise system of free tition. compe- All men are not homeless, men are home less than others. but some SEEK LONG-LOST TREASURE Another expedition has left a Cali- fornia port for Cucos Island, forthe pur- pose of finding a treasure, supposed to be long-buried and representing pirates in the days when the almost ruled the waves. The new expedition carries bulldozers and heavy equipment, designed to locate the $65,000,000 “loot of Lima,” which tradition asserts, lies off the island.

You might as well know they don’t like me—and I don’t give a hoot,” he “added with what seemed like unnecessary vehem- ence. Betty’s expression did “not change. Oh, he wasn’t fooling her. She had seen. his left eyebrow shoot up in that odd little quirk, ! and was convinced he was joking. “What are you trying to-do— .get rid of me?” she asked. “Don’t tell me you’ve been out robbing banks and things? Now I know you're joking.” 2 He did not answer immediate- ly. He sat with his hand on the ignition key, staring down at it, but he still did not start the car. | At last he turned and his eyes | met hers steadily. : “We might as well get this straight here and now,” he said. “They don’t like me.

During the past ten days, she had known Betty. was e ing, Gertrude had tried v to find out from her fatl just what her cousit was like. Bi David Warren, engrossed in his — own problems as Carrolton’s post= master and never an_ observant man, could tell her little. He had, however, vol ‘ one bit of information t dis turbed Gertrude. Bray Mathers it seemed, was interested in — nursing as a career. She had, in facet, been in training for @ while before her mother’s death, Chances were she would want io take it up again, omce she over the shock of her loss, In case, Carrolton Hospital would be just. the place for her and he, avid Warren, would see that she tin. Pall of which would have been highly satisfactory to Gertrude, were it not for the fact that a new doctor had arrived in town, She'd be lucky, in fact, if Mother allowed her to take the new car out in this weather—even though it was her own car, a gift from her parents on her sixteenth birthday only a few weeks ago. Chances were she would have to go to the station in the rickety old jallopy, with Father at the wheel. He might even forget to come by for her. : She resumed her stance in front of the mirror, and began to take up where she had left off, Today, she resolved, she would go as far as she liked with lipstick, mascara and rouge—never mind what Mother said. Mother, like Father, had a lot to learn. Times had changed. Mother must be made to realize that the arrival of a new girl—especially a New York girl—in a town of Carrol- ton’s size was not to be taken lightly. It meant real competition. It was a challenge no girl in her lright mind would ignore. Even if the newcomer was a relative, as Betty Matthews was, she could do a lot of damage in He was young, single’ and, in Gertrude’s opinion, almost un- bearably attractive in a homely, wistful sort of way. As yet, he had not been accepted by the older, more conservative resi-~ dents. But quite a few of the lo- cal girls had contrived minor ail~ ments as an excuse to go to work on_him. - Now, as she stood adding thé finishing touches to her toilette and looking much older than her ixteen years, the pout was more in evidence than usual. She then smiled at her reflec- tion in the mirror, lifted a coral- tipped hand to her blonde hair in what she considered a properly dramatic gesture. She was glad she’d decided on this sophisticated upswept hairdo. é : “It’s ever so becoming, and it makes me look every day of twenty,” she told herself happily, “If Betty Matthews gets ahead of me, she'll have to be good—darn good!” (To be continued) TODAY’S ANNIVERSARIES (Know America) 1651—Sir William Phips, poor | Maine-boy, who found a million- dollar treasure wreck, w knighted, and became English royal governor of Massachusetts, born.
