MR HOOVER’S HANDICAP
(Detroit Free Press)
In order to get anywhere
with a program, or to do any
thing for the nation, the next
President of the United Sta
tes must be able to deal suc
cessfully with congress.
There is little or no likeli
hood that Mr. Hoover could
perform that feat.
He knows what is right and
he tries to live up to his know
ledge. But re lacks both po
litical instinct and disposi
tion.
He is unable to do what is
necessary in order to make
the turbulent, cross-grained,
selfish and self-seeking aggre
gation which makes up the
bulk of the members of con
gress, behave itself and help
the national interests instead
of crossing them.
This is unfortunate; but it
seems to be the condition.
It is not human nature for
the thrifty section of a nation
to suffer while another sec
tion benefits.

As soon as the average mer
chant forgets “How much
will it cost ” and does a right
about-face and says, “How
much can I invest ' then the
whole frame of modern news
paper advertising will be im
proved and results from ads
will be better.
Frankness disarms suspic
ion. People are afraid only
of those things which they do
not understand. If you have
an honest product to sell, the
more you can tell about it the
better the product will sell.
If you try to make the custo
mer take a substitute for an
advertised product, he be
comes suspicious and you lose
a customer.
There is bound to be growth
where there is action. People
are attracted to a community
that is alive.
