MERCHANTS IN TRADE
If all the articles that have
been written about trading at
home were stretched, end to end,
they would reach around the uni
verse and back again.
The idea that it pays citizens
to patronize home industry is
such simple truth that some
“smart’ people believe that there
is a catch in it, and they prefer to
be wise and send off for some
thing that the “foolish” town
boosters miss.
This paper has heretofore urg
ed its readers to buy everything
possible in their home town, be
cause a town or city has a money
balance just as vital to progress
as any individual budget. The
more trading done in Nome the
more profits there will be and the
more prosperity, and besides
those who have faith enough to
open up business here are entitled
to the patronage of their com
munity.
However, lets keep the argu
ment on a sound basis, and to do
this we must consider the mer
chant’s obligation. He is not en
titled to the trade of local citizens
unless he is really a merchant
and not a mere storekeeper, con
tent to pluck random profits of
desultory trade. Local merchants
to merit local patronage must
be modern in their methods, up
to date in their appeals and effi
cient in business. They cannot
and should not expect a commu
nity to support incompetency
through misguided home spirit.
Having said so much about our
merchants let us point out that
Nome, like other places, has effi
cient as well as inefficient mer
chants. We have reliable and
honest business houses, and, we
regret to say, a few that are not
above taking the profit and for
getting the true principles of
modern business. Readers are

CAMPAIGN SLOGAN WANTED
(Valdez Miner)
• Wanted—A Campaign Slogan.
For many elections past we have
had a good rousing campaign slo
gan. It mattered not that it was
inane and nonsensical—so we had
the Full Dinner Pail, Two Cars
in Every Garage, a Chicken in
Every pot and He Kept Us Out
of War. It sufficed if it was eu
phonius and made the forgotten
man’s briskest expand. But this
campaign we are up a tree. We
have been caught napping. Our
cheer leaders are so infatuated
with their isms and brain trusts
that they have forgotten the most
important part of an election.
What can one accomplish without
a slogan We sent a telegram to
the Democrats suggesting three
R's — “Roosevelt Robs Reason”—
and received no answer; we got
in touch with the Republicans
and suggested three L’s — “Lan
d.n Lobs Loonies” — results the
same. We contend they are as
suggestive as slogans we have in
dorsed in the past, and should be
given a trial. We insist on a slo
gan.
The Chinese may be too weak
to fight the Japs but they can get
up a war of their own.
