Merchants and Farmers United

The merchants of saltwater and farmers from this
vicinity got together not long for evenings dis
cussion of the problem of trading in Saltwater
the merchants and the farmers learned things things
kind that merchants and farmers of other commune
ties might learn if they would get together tackle
the similar problems of their bawicks.
The farmers told the merchants for example:
That they could get lower prices elsewhere.
That dealers in certain articles (impements) did
not keep complete stocks which parts could be
readily supplied.
That habit has much to do with the place of ones
trading.
That lack of attention often shunted a possible
buyer to a rival merchant community.
The merchants back with propositions to the
effect that:
They could and would meet prices made elsewhere.
They could carry complete lines as merchants
elsewhere.
They would make the farmers trading with them
their guests rather than depart from any lack
of courtesy.
They would pull together for the good of entire
community including the farmers vicinity as we'll

The upshot of the meeting a better understand

AMERICAN PUBLIC GETS THE FACTS

There most significant paragraph in a news
story written by of the American correspondents
in Germany last week. 1t said:-
Little is known here as to the plans of con-
gress-------This reveals again uncertain the
channels between the two countries. If actu
ally it will chiefly the liberation for

TONS"
When the history this great war comes to be
written by those who sufficiently the
passions the day view the progress judi
ciay it will be found that the
standing of people by another people
tributng if not the principal great
conflict.
Dean Walter Williams, of Missouri world travel
and student and formerly president of the
tohal Press Association-an organization including
Journalists from every continent nearly every
ry-says that this never would have happened at
all if the of every country of Europe
the press of the United States.
Since the broke out various governments have
established censorship of the press-mos proper
far as military movements concerned but re-
prehensble far political censorship concerned.
The peoples of the warning nations Europe-espe-
cially continental Europe what is going
in Europe than the newspaper readers of the
United States and there is ample evidence they
have clear idea at all of what going on in the
United States
The surprising thing to most American newspaper
readers will be to learn that the newsgaherng assoc
atiOns of Europe not only but before the in
of the government In this country Assoc-
ated Press the United various other organiza
tons and these gather the papers of all shades
of political opinion without any governmental reguIa-
ton whatever On the other hand the Overseas Reu-
ers HaVas and other gathering organizations of
Europe absolutely under governmental control and
have been during all the years that great conflict
has been growing and the which the papers of
those countries publish is thus controlled at it's source
The American citizen but to take the dis
patches in this mornings daily and dstort
the various items as a centralized government would
wish to have them distorted how easy it would
be to control public opinion if the government con-
troled the wsgathering agencies This per-
sisted in thru a number of years would sodify public
opinion just as the government wanted it thoroIy
1mpant all manner of Impressions regarding
peoples.
So whatever the future may have in store for this
nation, it is certain that the public has the
least deceived The press is Free information all
kinds is freely published and when the people speak
they speak with full assurance that public opinion is
founded on true and full knowledge of the facts.
