THE JITTERS
While from time to time a certain wing of the reac
tionary press has visions of a rise of the communistic idea
and its possible development in the United States all ele
ments of reason and common sense indicate that the fear is
more the jitters or an effort to retard the efforts now being
made to bring about a sane readjustment of economic con
ditions.
There is too much common sense, too high a stale of men
tality in the nation for the extremists to make more than a
feeble showing.
The New Deal has demonstrated that our present form
of government is sufficiently elastic to permit of its being
extended to meet any situation which might arise.
While certain phases of the New Deal embody every
thing which labor might desire—providing it's honest labor
and not political agitation—it reckons nothing of the com
munistic ideal or program.
Take for instance the measures put into operation for
the relief of the worker. Of the $4,800,000,000 involved in
the giant program $400,000,000 goes into the construction of
highways; $50,000,000 more is going into roads in National
Forests, parks, Indian Reservations, and public domain;
$238,000,000 goes to bring the Navy up to treaty limits. Oth
er millions are going into such Federal projects as Muscle
Shoals, Tennessee Valley and Boulder Dam. One billion,
eight hundred thousand dollars is going to aid public works,
which includes sewer disposal, water works, transmission
lines, new areas for homes and industry, and model tene
ments.
All these funds are directed to creating employment
and aiding business as well as those dependent upon business
for a livlihood, including small investors. A more compre
hensive and rational program could not be conceived, for it
benefits everybody.
To the communist who shouts that this money is purely
for the benefit of capital, who exploits labor it may be point
ed out that on each project where federal aid is accorded
steps have been taken to safeguard labor against that very
exploitation alleged by the extremists.
It will be noted in the program that no obstacle is plac
ed in the way of the laborer to defeat the principle of collec
tive bargaining. In fact that is recognized by President
Roosevelt’s administration, which has set up a tribunal to
use its good offices to assist in adjusting labor disputes.

By adhering to the principle of utilizing hand labor in
lieu of machinery wherever possible in purely public works
under direct administration of the Federal government, the
program goes far toward meeting the demand of labor that
it be not displaced by the machine.
Here the rights of capitalism are defended even down
to the most humble day laborer. It is now up to all to use
their own brains in administering the returns from this sour
ce of income, rather than to lapse into a state of dependence
upon the political wing of the nation to guide their present
and future destiny.
If the communists have anything superior to this they
have not as yet displayed it to the satisfaction of America’s
intelligent citizenship.—Exchange.

DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?
By Edson R. Waite, Shawnee, Oklahoma
Benjamin Sosland, Assistant business manager of the
Kansas City Journal-Post, says:
“Advertising in its many forms is the most valuable
thing in the world for big or small business. It can do one
or two things—hasten your success or failure.
“Money spent wisely, carefully and without thought of
fooling the public will bring success.
“In checking advertising of all kinds, I find that many
times the advertiser feels that the wool might be pulled ov
er the buyers’ eyes and greater profit realized. This is
quite untrue—dishonest advertising will ruin a business
quicker than anything else.
"Lazy advertising is worthless. Copy thrown together
quickly without proper thought is damaging.
"It's a mystery to folks associated with advertising to
learn that the most important phase of the business is given
so little consideration. A concern spending hundreds of
thousands of dollars will investigate all phases of its busi
ness. take inventory of everything and carefully audit its
books, and then take for granted the advertising is all right.
“Advertising is putting a business on parade. It’s in
spection day for all who see the message. Why not employ
the best help and the most careful methods and make your
advertising dollar a profitable one?”

"And now. said the teacher, “can
anyone give me a sentence using the
word 'candor’?”
Please, ma'am," said the bright
little boy in the front seat, “my papa
had a pretty stenographer but my
mamma saw her and so my pop
candor.”
