SAME MISTAKE EVERYWHERE.
[Ackley World


Ackley capitalists are lamentins the
approaching shut down OF the brewery

money in Ackley enterprises. In that

ber.-Cedar Falls Record.
Not necessarily 'Ackley capitalists -
aItho there is some truth in the state
ment. It was a legitimate investment
at the time and the investors can not
be seriously blamed. The World Is
familiar with the fact that considerable
! Cedar F falls money has gone to Water
loo into various enterprises real es-
tate etc. And so it goes the world over.
Cedar Falls. following the Records adj
vice could now be city OF $4,000, in
stead of $500.
During the past ten years not less
than $350,0O0 has gone from Ackley In
to enterprises" and other "sure thing
| investments, on which the investors
have received not a dollar In return,
but the "industrials' have faded away
from 25 to so per cent. This money
| was all made in Ackley" and altho 1t
did not bear the union label-well, the
fellow with the still, soft voice, and
the soft palm is tenderly caressing
those greenbacks.
These things are true Of our own and
other communities, everywhere. They

they "see greener pastures over yon-

Winston churehiIp. Confession.

For the first time in her history Eng
land has been obliged to confess that
she does not possess sufficient naval
strength to guard effectively her coast.
Winston Churchill, First LORD OF the
Admiralty, was the official medium Tor
making this startling confession. II
answering the charge that the Lusi-
tania would have reached Liverpool in
safety If she had had suitable naval
convoy, Churchill in a speech In the
House Of Commons b1untly declared
that the British navy was not strong
enough to furnish such protection to
all merchant ships entering British
ports. He stated that the Admiralty
had sent warnings to the Lusitania
and had given her general directions
for her last voyage. Continuing he
said: II must make 1t plain that In no
circumstances will 1t be possible to
make public the naval disposition Tor
patrolling our coasts. Our resources
! 10 10 not enables US to provide DESTROYER
escorts for mail and passenger ships.
Here is frank ayowal that the Brit
ism naval authorities have not the

just why should there be any fac
rttonal differences on the question OF
support for Senator Cummins? He Is
accounted a strong man for the party
in Iowa. There Is no going behind the
returns in his recent reelection to the
United States senate.
The indications at this time are that
Senator Cummins will have the united
support Of all Iowa republicans, in the
aeS: national convention. No nania
has yet been mentioned for the party
leadership in 1916 with SO much heal
ing in 1t. so much promise of party
solidarity behind it as that Of Cum
minis.
The Aberdeen News and its i'm
mediate factional adherents indulge in
a great deal of talk on the subject Of
dropping factional differences but
they always want the other fellows to
do all the dropping and accept their
judgments Of candidates and issues.
II the News and its coterie really de-
sire to drop fractional issues they
have fine chance right now by unit
ing with Senator Crawford and all
other progressives in the state to eend
a Cummins delegation to the next ma
tional republican convention. 1t has
been pretty we'll demonstrated that the
majority win not abandon its convic-
tions and accept those Of the minority.
Senator Cummins seems to be good
enough for all factions in Iowa, where
he Is best known. both on the ques-
ton Of general fitness and personal
tendencies. With such an attractive
candidate offered in behalf of re-
publican harmony, it is surprising I'd

WE NEED ROADS.
IGrnudy Repuhlican.1

Iowa's need OF something in the way
of hard surfaced roads was never so
aptly illustrated as during the month
OF May For the larger part of May
the roads were almost impossible for
auto traffic, and might just as well
have been impossible for any kind OF
traffic, so widespread has become the
use OF the auto. Can any man imagine
that business would have been 80 dull.
or the farmer so shut in, or SO many
people grumbling and complaining. II
it had been possible for people to trav-
ell here and there on hard surfaced
roads?
The modern auto does not mind the
rain. Il it can keep out OF the mud.
and IL a network OF hard roads had
covered Iowa there would have been
the greatest visiting season during
May the old state has known. Mir
anda living up in Allamakee would
have persuaded Josiah that they might
as well visit Mary and John in Han
cock county for few days. since the
wet weather had stopped corn plant
ing. and away would have journeyed
an auto for visit IN a rainy season.
And what was happening to Miranda
and Josiah would have occurred to
Mary and James, Susan and Joseph,
Marie and Algernon. and 30 on up
through the Iowa families from one
end Of the state to the other.
And when people begin to 90 VISIT
ing they begin to spend money. And
money put into circulation boosts bust
ness and good business makes greater
demands for products, so II Miranda
| and Josiah had not been mudbound w
in Allamakee, and everywhere else in
Iowa, during the month Of May bust
J ness would not have been bad. neither
would our dispositions and many Other
| things.
What Iowa needs is some roads thai
rain two days in succession or three
| inches in one night.

Washington. - There was general
impression among cabinet members
that the. visit Of Ambassador Won
Bernstorff to the White House might
relieve the stress existing between
the United States and Germany. Close
observers declared that Count Won
Bernstorff indicated that MS country
does not wish severance OF f1enoiy
relations. President Wilson was SAID
to be hnnefnl that Count Won Bern
storffs good offices might be useo 20

MIR. MILLER'S GALL STONES.
ICarroll Herald.1

Charles w. Miller. that red headed
pest of the medical profession, has
been under the surgeons knife, and
the attending doctors say that they
will save his life. Miller as representa-
tive from Bremen county has done
more to demoralize the practice OF
medicine in Iowa than anything else
that has happened. But he has done
his worst and it is likely that the sur
geon did not care about killing him:
so he will live to make life burden
to the profession in the future as in
the past.

TWO CENTS ENOUGH.

Testimony brought at the inter
state commerce hearing at Chicago
recently indicates that the railroads
of Iowa are paying fair dividends up
on the capital invested. In fact they
are paying dividend that is above the
average. The railroads Of Iowa are
not in state of penury. They are not
subjected to confiscatory rates. Still,
they persist in agitating the question
of increasing the passenger rate to 21a
cents mile. The 2-cent rate is high
enough.

KILLING THE SMALL TOWN.


Here is how the interurban kills
country towns. LaPorte wanted the
interurban out Of Waterloo. A set OF
pessimists said it would ruin the town.
that half OF the trade would go to
Waterloo, as that larger city is only
ten miles OF SO distant. But the oPs.
mists prevailed and the interurban
was built. Since then LaPorte has
taken on a growth never known be-
fore. Many new residences have gone
up, a few business places and one or
more factories. The census Just COM
pleted shows population OF 1,525. a
gain OF z1 per cent Il; Ave years, nearly
all OF which was made since the
trolley cars came. The interurban
builds up rural communities. It Is
great benefit to towns Of any and all
sizes.

candidate of the VETS"

remarks that ..if he should get only the
votes of the men who remember what
office he was elected to, and whether
they voted for him or not, he would not
stand as high as a seven spot in
euchre hand"
And we say it," says the Jefferson
Bee without fear or favor that the
worst kickers on taxes In town are the
men who are the best able to pay taxes.
1t is not the poor man with his little
thousand dollar home who kicks. But
all the talk by these men of means is
that 1t is not hurting them. but 1t is
hurting the poor man. And the poor
man. with his home taxed at from 5000
to $500 Is paying only about 81 OF the
school bond tax each year, sum that
is surely not hurting him. He is not
found objecting, but, nevertheless. he
Is the great reason why the bonds

A. I. MYERS COMPANY WRITES
LARGEST POLICY EVER
WRITTEN

Insurance circles were somewhat
surprised when sometime ago the
Equitable Life Insurance company
announced they had insured all the
employees of the Baldwin Locomotive
Works, the Westinghouse Air Brake
company. Then came the recent an
nauncement that they had insured the
$1,000 employees in all the factories
of the Studebaker Corporation, ag-
gregating six million dollars of in
surance. Now it is announced that
the $4,000 employees of the B. T.
Goodrich company of Akron, Ohio,
manufacturers of rubber goods of all
description are insured by the Equit-
able. This policy will amount to be-
tween nine and ten million dollars,
probably the largest life insurance
policy that has ever been placed,
The Goodrich people state that it
is their purpose to further the we'll
being of its employees by Encouraging
thrift among their employees in this
manner. Besides these employees are
induced to carry this insurance for
the benefit of their families. which in
turn tends to relieve the employees
of a certain amount of financial
worry. 1929
