Some folks seem to trouble a heap
about the dipping of stock, but it
seems to me that they are too late
about making their kick Why didn't
they kick before it became law and
before they went to all of the expense
of building the watts? But to kick now
seems like foolishness. After spend
ing so much money in anything then
trying to kill it, that would seem as
though it was a waste of time and
money for nothing. I think that since
we are into it we should take hold
and give it a fair test, then we can
tell whether it is a real benefit or
an injury. But personally 1 think it
will prove to be a great benefit if it
is conducted in accordance with the
government instructions. For it has
been a great benefit in other sections
of the country and why should it not
be a benefit here?
