! O The Editorial Page Of The Daily Ardmoreite O
THE COMIC SUPPLEMENT

Missouri and Kansas publishers of papers
INl in the smaller towns and cities have done
well to petition the government to make
ruling against the printing Of comic supple
ments by big daily papers, The demand for
the elimination Of these unholy horrors Of non
art is economic, though it might be made also
on moral and aesthetic grounds.
The smal-town publishers aver, and with
right, because it is a fact, that the bg-city
fellows control and use about ninety per cent
of the available supply Of print paper The
small-towners figure that if the comic sup
plements and the magazine sections are elm-
mated there will be paper enough left to go
around amongst the fraternity, so that the
present pinch will not continue to be felt.
The comic supplement should have been
discontinued years ago because it is disgrace
to American journalism. The pictures and the
reading matter going Herewith have distinct
tendency toward vulgarizng the taste Of chill
dren and making the child a disobedient
tricky, impertinent young nuisance. We hope
sincerely for the elimination Of the comic sup
pement permanently

But for the back-fire of the United States
senate, it is highly probable that Poet-Pest
DAnnunzio would not be imperiling the peace
Of Europe and America by his foolishness at
Fiume; and that the Balkan states would not
be fighting between themselves and threaten
ing to fight outside themselves and that even
soviet Russia by now would have discovered
that she cannot endure and propagate her kind
against the world The back-fire in the senate
has kept the world upset If those fiery little
fellows abroad knew absolutely that Uncle Sam
was going to stand sturdily for world peace
they would be afraid to fight q bull pup.

Of town, he says, but whose name we do not
