MORE MONEY NEEDED.

The citizens of Newport News
hove been fairly generous in their
contributions for the exploitation OF
! the city during the jamestown ey-
position but If the truth must be
told the sumo of about $4,000, which
Is the amount raised by thecommlI-
tee} is not an entire credit to the
town, The people OF Newport News
are looking forward to the expo
s.tioE rs something of a gold mine
for them but their expectations will
,lnot fully 'be realized unless there
Is more money raised,
Il. is,,.true that some people Will
como here whether money is raised
or not and would come II there
had never been such thing as
m exploitation committee organized,
y 5G. the patronage secured by tho
city II such had been the case
would have been relatively small 1t Is
an age of advertising and the people
have been educated to patronl2e that
which they most often see In the
papers and periodicals whether 1t To
"a city bidding for visitors or a mer.
chant endenvoring to sell his goods.
The people will not be attracted
to the city unless their attention
is called to 1t and while this is
( going to be done in way still it
could be more deliberately done. The
reason why 1t will not be more ex-
Atensively advertised in because OF
4 the lack Of funds. Four thousand
dollars Is very small amount of
money to be used in printers ink;
ut will hardly leave an impression,
but 1t is the best the exploitation
\ commission can do and IL the great
expectations of the people OF this
city are not realized they have
aonly themselves to blame.
The Daily Press realizes that this
lis q day of demands on the purses
cot the citizens of Newport News,
but Il is certain that unless the
strings on them are unloosened
there will be no need of an extra
length of string to tie them up after
the exposition comes to an end.
