CRITICS OF AMERICA

All Americans are aware that the
affections OF European nations toward
the United States have cooled per.
ceptibly, and an examination of the
phenomenon reveals the strange fact
that this GOODNESS developed simultan'
eously with Americas refusa. to pour
out any more billions without any as
.suranca OF lepayment. ms shead OF
Europe's gratitude manifesting itself
as a 'iively anticipation Of favors to
come" it expired promptly upon
learning definitely that the United
States Treasury was no longer to pour
out money on European account.
The manner in which Europe has
indicated it's suspension Of gratitude
takes various forms, according to the
temper of the speaker and the oc
casion of the speech. If the speaker
thinks there is a chance of reopening
the Treasury's doors his remarks take
a patronizing and conciliatory tone
almost concealing the sneer that lies
so near the surface. If he has given
up hope Of further financial prodigal
ity on the part of Uncle Sam, he
makes no further concealment of his
feelings, and gives out his real opinion

THE. AMERICAN PRESS SASSOCIATION
IN NATIoNALIsM's NAME

In his address accepting the Lincoln
Memoria, in the name of the Nation
President Harding returned to his
loved and favorite theme, National
ISM The white and shining memor.
ial of the Great Commoner given to
the Nation was accepted by him for
the Nation and not in the name of any
race, or creed, or color or strain of
Americanism, but for all.
The maintenance of the Nation was
the supreme page of American history
in the view OF the man from Marion
In his view, as in the view of millions
OF ether Americans, human slavery
vanished when it vanished in Amer
lea, because 1t was splitting the rock
of union, because it was dividing the
house of America and because "a
house divided against itself cannot
stand" Not emancipation" of the
slave but maintained union and ma
tionality" was the mighty purpose OF
Abraham Lincoln, says the man who
now sits where Lincoln sat in the
White House of the stricken sixties
Nationa.ism! 1t is the key to the
mind and heart of Harding. He feels
that it was the key to the heart and
the purpose of Lincoln. He points out
again what it is so easy for the Amer
leans OF hall century later to forget,
that it was the passion Of the ra..-
splitter from the Sangamon. Emanci-
patton was no more than great
means to a greater end, that Of the
preservation of the Union. Lincoln
took emancipation in his stride to,
ward that goal.
There is no grain Of comfort or
color Of illusion in the address Of tnu
Presii VT for those who lean toward
the aims and moves the sweeps and
trends of internationalism He sees
Lincoln less as an apostle Of human
ity than as an apostle Of nationality
and union. It is in this light that
President Harding sees himself. No
kiuGlier, more human individual ever
came TO the White House than TIE
nan from Maricn, hut the strong pas
sion in his heart is .he Nation.

ing pot" He sees the Nation living
its continued life in the sons Of the
men who climbed the Blue Ridge,
passed through Cumberland Gcp, who
set their faces to the West In the
great emigration that rolled on with
it's long rifles, its iron kettles and
its axes and finally came to the Pa
cific and the last West His appeal is
to the sons OF the old America that
found itself again in the great wal
and is beginning to reassert its aims
ideals and purposes that have come
down from days when the nationa.
cornerstone was laid.
His task, as President Harding sees
| it is to sail straight course by the
old charts. He will listen to major
tiles rather than to strident class
minded faction, racial groups and hall
ihysterical minorities. He will go on
holding to the road of the Constitu
tion, guided by the will of the major
ity and keeping to the aims of nation
alism. In this he has read the heart
of America, and its unchanging will

ADVERTISING is A
PUBLIC BENEFIT

Government figures prove beyond
dispute that business revival is mark.
ed-but by business revival is meant
manufacturing and production. Retail
trade has not yet caught up. Close
analysis Of this situation discloses that
Ore retailers have Jagged because
they have failed to put into the minds
of the people a feeling Of confidence
that prices have reached the bottom
and that better times are at hand. 1t
is amazing how few retail merchants
in the smaller towns realize the value
Of educational advertising. They are
so close to the picture they fail to see
its perspective. They look for the i'm
mediate dollar and in grasping at the
shadow they miss the substance. The
value of advertising is cumulative.
Indeed, that is its greatest worth. East
man has actually advertised the word
camera out OF the dictionary and ad-
vertised the trademarked name Kodak
into the dictionary.
The day Of misleading advertising
has passed. The public has come to
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1922-06-15

see advertising in the light of news,
and it is news. The merchant who
advertises tells his story frankly {.
the public, knowing he will be checked
up and counting investigation of his
statements and prices. The adver-
tisement Of today is not the subject OF
suspicion. 1t is the merchant who is
afraid to tell his story over his sig.
nature that the public regards with
doubt, and properly so.
The boom in retail trade awaits only
little thought on the part Of the mer-
chant, plus the Fundamental! know
ledge that advertising is an investment
and not an expense and a duty owed to
the public whose support is sought
The whole business structure OF the
nation depends on advertising. In
creased business means greater pro
duction, lower first cost, a larger
turnove., increased buying and con
sequently provides a saving to the
buying public. The public should
support merchants who advertise be
cause they are the constructive force
that helps to keep costs down.
GIVE US A PLAIN CONTRACT LAW
Oregon has an unsound and almost
insane set of laws for letting contracts
for public work and buying equipment
and supplies.
First, in only one county-Multno
mah-must all $500 or over contracts
be let 20 lowest bidder. Why not
the same low for the whole statei
What is good for one county is good
for all.
Second the rest Of the state acts
under law requiring that the con
tracing officials advertise that 1t is
their intention to receive bids"
The law ingeniously omits to say
that the contracts shall be let ito the
lowest responsible bidder" See the
niger in the woodpile"? They dc
not have to let a contract at all.
The custom is growing up in
counties, cities, school districts, road
districts, and even the state, of hav
ing officials buy supplies and mater
als without bids, hire labor and take
the plan of the contractors.
OF course, If there are losses OF
work costs twice what it should, the
taxpayor foots the bill However
we don't believe this Is so in Lincoln
county.

LEARN ABOUT THE FARMER

Back of all lesislG lion must stand
united public opinion which always is
tc be trusted in this nation when the
people have intelligent understanding.
Most of cur troubles como from i'm
perfect knowledge and consequent
lack Of interest in public questions.
Fer years this has been the case with
tho American farmer whose situation
and Importance until lately has not
been even measuro bly, sensed AS
soon as the people genera,ly in the
great cities as well as in the smaller
communities cone 20 realize how much
Of the nations prosperity depends on
the farm then the wheels Of reform
will begin to turn With rapil!.y, and
all the people will benefit.
Almost half cur population Is rural,
| living on six and cne-half millions of
farms which employ approximately
/ thirteen millions CT workers. The
value Of the annual production Of
these men is $19,1T6, 1000, WHICH is
greater than that Of mining or OF any
branch of manufacturing
What sad commentary it is upon
Cur legislative intelligence when we
realize dat in spite of these stupen-
dous and important figures, the income
Of each farm factory or farm mine
whichever way we choose to Visualize
| it, averages only S2798.
The province Of government is to
create prosperity, the greatest good

written shorter Bible which will. per
petuate the orgy.
The astonishing thing is that there
are leaders connected with the Y. M.
C. A., and the Y. w. C. A., who have
lent their names and their influence
Ito the infamous, hell-born production
called the Shorter Bible. If the Y.
M. C. A. and the Y. w. C. A. organ
izations permit their names and the
names of their leaders to be attached
to this abortion, then the righteous,
orthodox Christian forces of America
should crush the Y NJ C. A. and the
Y. w. c. A. Our boys and girls can
not be entrusted to the leadership or
to the educational ond club features OF
institutions drawing their sustenance
from the churches of the living Christ
to have the faith Of these children
undermined by such infamous attacks
upon Gods infclIible Word.
The Shorter Bible, so called, is one
of the most blasphemous attacks that
has been mGde upon Gods Hoy Bible
Let the Y. M. G. A. and the Y. w. c.
A. repudiate their leaders Or suffer
the consequences.
Orthodox, selArespecting, consecrat
ed men and women will not be insult
ed by such attacks of the rationslistic
forces.
HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1872
One fellow said the carly bird catch
es the worm, and the other fellow
said the worm was fool for getting
up in the mcrning. Maybe they're
both right. It's funny how things ex
actly opposite ere often exactly the
same. It's as cold at the south pole
as it is at the north pole, if you can
believe what the explorers say, and
nobody seems to doubt them. Hustle
little harder, do "a bit more than the
other fellow, some folks say, and then
others say, that's scheme of the rich
to get the poor to work more for less
OF course, if everybody followed the
plan there wouldn't be Gnything to 1t
but what's the use of living in a
theoretical world when we have real
thing with us every day? Maybe do
ing the thing we have to do thoroughly
is the best bet. There's so few peop.e
delivering the goods nowadays that an
honest days work is curiosity. Also
it's an asset.

ONE MEMORABLE LAW

This fact stands out beyond dispute:
Cause and effect are absolute. :.
We violate life's perfect laws, which
constitutes the active cause,-it may
be passive, or neglect, which brings
the swift and dire effect,-effect com
mensurate with the cause, so strict
are life's uIvarying laws!
Mans wilfui sins may be forgiven
that mar his errant road to heaven
though scarlet-red, or black, we know
forgiveness makes us white as snow
- But-violate life's .east command
forgiveness lends no helping hand
anG grim effect will follow cause, in
this most stern Of human laws.
If you should ask me why it's so, Pt
have to say that don't know!.
Your own,
UNCLE JOHN.

the House bill fixing a new basis OF
pay for officers and enlisted personnel
or the army, lazy. marine corps. coast
guard, coast and geodetic survey and

ments were added and the measure

Chairman Wadsworth. Of the special
committee in charge of the bill, de
clared that the measure would save
the government a total of nearly Sic

against what he termed the "stagna-
