liIical party that wins from this
time forward must be, alive TO the
issues OF the day. No party can sur
vive now burdened by a lot OF old
traditions or hampered by age-old
preachments.
We are living in a fast moving
world, world of change and pro-
gress and political parties must he
alive to these indications. or pass
into the musty archives of oblivion,
So far as the issues Of the cam
paign just closed are concerned, the
Ardmoreite is inclined to believe
they clearly bespeak the nationwide
tendencies. We do not agree with
policies of governmental ownership
as outlined by the Shawnee plat
form, but the huge vote piled up in
favor OF just such theories indicates
to the nation as we'll as to Oklaho-
ma that the people are growing
tired of the old order, that some
thing must come to pass that will
relieve and satisfy, or the people
will take over all units of oppres-
sion and encroachment.
Mayor T. c, Walton stood for a
new order-John Fields stood for
the things that are--the result is
the best weather vane to popular
sentiment.
The Oklahoma victory was not
merely victory for the democratic
party OF the state, it was the voice
OF liberalness, OF radicalism il you
please. Let there be no mistake
about that.

EDITORIAL
OF THE DAY
Why Should You BE Interested i'm
Your Home City?

Should man who believes in his
home city, who boosts for it works to-
ward its advancement morally, indus
trially and civically be heralded as a
magnanimous citizen of vision? Is that
sign of generosity and big hearted.
ness that only a few possess?
We believe not.
II is just plain ordinary sign of COM
mon horse sense, because primarily
such interest and work for development
Of your city is merely work and de-
velopment Of your own interest.
No man living in a community and
owning property. or otherwise can pro-
mote that communitys welfare with.
out promoting his own and no man
who works for his own interests should
necessarily be known as great pub
lie spirited citizen.
We believe at heart, every man and
woman in Enid is actually interested
in the development and growth of this
city and would not knowingly do any
thing that would tear it down.
Therefore. when u chance comes TO
promote its welfare, the reason why
10000 people do not push instead of
the few. is because the 10000 do not
not see the same. That represents the
difference in the vision Of its citi2nry.
II IN opportunity comes TO boost
Enid, every one should throw away
differences. get behind the wheel and
push, because it Is by concerted action
that commonwealths are built.
Think of Enid first because it is your
home city. 1t is where you are spend.
ing your time your most valuable as.
set Keep a sharp lookout for the op.
portunities that come to you TO pro.
mote and advance your city.

YES AND NO

Are we Kidding ourselves when
We talk about the great advantages
derived from labor-saving devices
The Pennsylvania Railroad prints
this on the cover OF its dining car
menu:
Millions of tons OF ore are car
iied in solid trainloads over the
PENNSYLVANIA system every year to
iced the blast furnaces of the iron
and steel industry.
In order to transfer the ore from
cargo boats of the Great Lakes to
railroad cars, the Pennsylvania sys-
TEN operates giant electric unload
ing machines at its ore docks on
Lake Erie.
Prior to 1882 this work was done
by hand-shovel and wheel-barrow
at the rate of about 100 tons day.
To-day four machines at Cleve-
land can empty vessel and load
cars at the rate OF 5000 tons an
hour"
The actual mining and transporta-
ton OF iron ore have also been
speeded up by labor-saving devices,
the same as handling the ore at the
docks.
All this is generally accepted as
more economical
However, in the days when iron
ore was handled by wheel-barrow
and hand shovel, the ore cost 81
a ton at Lake Erie docks.
Today the price is between S.
and SO a ton.
1t looks as if, the more economi-
cal the process, the higher the cost.
You find the same state Of con-
tradiction in wheat. In 1860 the
cash price Of wheat at Chicago
was as low as 90 cents bushel.
Today, even with farm prices far
too low compared with other prices
wheat costs lot more than ID did
in 1860.
All this, despite the introduction OF
tremendous labor saving devices
and processes in growing the wheat
and shipping it to market
In general it seems that labor
saving devices tend to increase SELL
ing price, on the average and in the
long run.
This is concentrated by two i'm
portant things;
FIRST: The buying power Of the
dollar has changed. A dollar repre-
sents less buying power, today, than
30 cents did when grandpa was
boy. Every one has more dollars,
TOO, so the dollar is not fair
measure OF price.
SECOND: The introduction OF
labor-saving devices and processes
has released human labor for other
work. This enables humanity to pro-
duee thousands Of articles for gen
eral use, where in the old days such
commodities were numbered by the
hundreds. We OF today have a wild
er assortment OF articles, both ne
cessi,ies and luxuries, than few
generations ago.
That is the long range trend, a
higher standard OF living. Price is
secondary. When dollar would
buy almost anything, as old men
put it, "the trouble was no one had
The dollar"
