MOST ABE HONEST
i The Psalmist admitted that he
was hasty when he Bald: "AH
men are liars.” Most men probably
are liars in certain emergencies but
the average man generally comes up
to scratch. Take the matter of
commercial debtB.
| Credit is safely extended because
the overwhelming majority honor
their obligations.
At the recent meeting of the Na
tional Foreign Trade Council the
auestion was asked: "Can credit be
successfully extended abroad?”
The answer was a simple "Yes.”
Experience has shown that "gen
erally speaking, foreign credits are
99 Mi to 99% percent safe. Credit
losses in export trade average from
one third to one half of one percent.
It is only rarely that they are as
large as one percent."
Geography, color of the skin,
language, and that sort of thing
have not much to do with hopesty,
racial prejudices to the contrary
j notwithstanding. —Exchange
[.ADVERTISING AN INVESTMENT
The idea prevails among some
i business people that advertising is
j merely an expense, something to
be added wholly to the operating
costs of a business.
It is of course true that advertis
ing is one of the necessary operat
ing costs of a business, but it is
also true that it is an investment
creating values for future use.
Wl>en a concern advertises re
fularly, it builds up good will. It
creates a reputation- for that con
cern for enterprise and progressive
ness, and it draws people to the
at.ore to see the goods thus describ
ed, and a good part of these people
will become permanent customers.
The good will of a business is
as much a part of its assets as
money locked up in the building or
fixtures it owns or the stock that it
carries. If you buy a good busi
ness, you usually have to pay a
heavy sum for that good will. You
are building that permanent invest
ment every day you advertise—

Have You
Met
"The Union Oil Company?”
Do You Know "Who It la” and What It* Aims Are?
The Purpose of This Announcement is to
Introduce It to You t
NO DOUBT you buy tbe products
of this Company—non-detonatteg
Union Gasoline and Aristo Motor Oil.
And you know they are efficient in your
motor.
But that doesn't satisfy us. We want
you to know these products“personally”
—the organization behind them and tbe
Standards and ideals on which it is built.
“Union Oil of California" is an organ
ization that is forty-three years old. It
is all Western. Its founder, Lyman
Stewart, whose son is president of this
Company today, drilled some of the first
wells in the West in 1883.
Since that time “Union Oil" has de
veloped as the great wide West has
developed until it has become one of the
biggest industrial institutions in this part
of America.
The management and progress of
“Union Oil" has always been in the hands
of Westerners. Many of the most prom
inent pioneers in California have been
associated with it. And in the growth
and expansion of the oil industry “Union
Oir has been a prominent
figure for four decades.
Today, as in the eighties,
the control of “Union Oif’
is vested in dbectors who
are business men and “oif
men" with years of practi
cal experience behind
them.
But the mere produc*
tkm and refining of crude
oil is not their sole inter
eat. Their main interest is
in you who drive a motor car—to sen*
you to this company's best ability.
Because you are the buyer of their
products, and you must be served in
such a way that you will be friendly, be
pleased, be well served, so that you will
buy and buy again.
For 10,200 stockholders—76% of
whom are themselves Westerners—look
to these men for dividends.
So these directors work for people—*
for you, so that you will gladly buy
the Company’s products—and for thoat
thousands of stockholders so that their
investment will earn a reasonable profit*
When you use non-detonating Union
Gasoline and Aristo Motor Oil, thera*
fore, you are dealing with an institution
which is a community affair—a Western
institution, paying ^15,600,000 yearly
in salaries to Western employes and
the greater portion of its dividends to
Western people, a Company directed by
Western men, whose products are
“Western made" for Western motoring
conditions.
“Union Oil” waft tool
less—it is human. It want*
you for its friend. It
den service and mansgss
ks business with that do»
sire uppermost in all of ke
endeavors.
Thus it is “introduced to
you.” And it invites you
to enjoy a closer, better ao>
quaintance in the futuro
through the use of tht
products that it makes.
Union Oil Company
of California
This is one of a senes of announcements by the Union Oil Company which we believe wiB be of special interest
to all Westerners. Others acquainting you with the development of die cal industry will appear from time to time.
Look for them in this publication.

MR. MURRAY’S LETTEI
The position which Mr. Murray
chooses to assume in connection
with the contest for the delegate
ship is not the business of the Times.
His vote is his own to cast for
whomsoever he chooses, and it is his
privilege also to engage actively in
the campaign on whichever side he
please; it is even fair in politics as
played nowadays, to make use of
personal correspondence for cam
paign purposes. But it occurs to
The Times that Mr. Murray exposed
himself to criticism when he defer
red his declaration until after he
had been safely nominated. Repub
{ean supporters of Mr. Sutherand
who helped to nominate Mr. Murray
will be inclined to question his polit
ical integrity because he permitted
it to be assumed that he would be a
part of the regular Republican tick
et, instead of making his position
clearly understood by seeking elec
tion as an independent.
But if he appears to have “pack
ed water on both shoulders” during
tho primary campaign, it cannot be
said of the Cordova candidate that
he has not endeavored recently to
make his position understood,.
His letter appearing elsewhere in
today’s issue of the Times should re
move from the minds of those who
;ead it, uncertainty regarding his
attitude.
Ostensibly written as a personal
note, but in reality prepared for
public consumption, the letter
“•macks of political trickerv to get
free publicity. If that is the
way it was intended, it has gone
over big, for the letter has
made almost the complete rounds
of the Alaska press carrying
its belated message into every
community in the division, and
beyond. But its publication Is jus
tified in a way, because the letter
contains statements of interest to
voters on both sides of the political
fence and it is passed on to them by
the Times for what they can get out
cf it. —Anchorage Times
The letter written by Mr. Mur
lay was published by every paper
in the division. The gist of which
was condemnation of Delegate Suth
erland for his placing before the
Senate Committee on Judiciary evi
d3nce and affidavits that discredited
the nominees for office in the Terri
tory. The records so stunk to high
heaven that even the late Sen. Cum
mins, regular as he was, went to the
President with the request that the
names be withdrawn. When this
was not done some of the Senators
seriously talked of impeachment
proceedings.
Through the entire political pro
poganda the alleged independents
declare only that Alaska has been
defamed and that there must be a
“whiteman’s party. We wonder if
said party is like that one when a
certain legislator in the presence of
Governor Scott C. Bone and other
rice ladies of Juneau, vomitted on
the floors of the legislative halls; or
perchance it will be with a certain
editor who staggered up the streets
of Wrangell taking more than a
a half of the side walk; or per
chance it will be with that one who
found that he was being “bilked”
thirty dollars the case and got up a
party to save that much of his le
gislative salary. All for the sancti
ty of the ballot. Such trickery as
Murray pulled off is typical of the
so called independents.
What say aside from “Get some
one else than Dan, anything even a
“squawman” what kind of a pro
gram does this great independent
party of trough feeders have. Lets
hear some constructive planks now.
