featuring automobile advertising
throughout the country. Although
the motor car is admittedly a neces-
sity, the millions Of used car now In
service could be taken as disproving
the statement in this way: the present
demand is not so much one Of neces-
sity as of luxury. This could be trans
lated as having even greater import
ance, for it could not be a tight mar
ket that would demand and pay for
luxuries at this time.
More favorable weather has given
a decided impetus to building opera
tons over widely distributed areas.
1t is the spring season and activity in
all lines is increasing. With more
money to spend and a renewed conf
dence in the value Of this years crops,
the farmers are happier than they
have been for a year and are making
extensive plans accordingly. Higher
prices for live stock set the pace for
readjustments that came steadily once
the start was made. Banks are not
only willing to extend loans to farm
ers, but are seeking business. Alto
gether, the business situation is better
now than a great many careful OBJ
servers predicted.

NO PARK WANTED

The result of Tuesdays election
spoke so forceiully against tn idea
OF the city OF Brookints buying r park
that the Register is fotced % come to
the conclusion hat the people of
Brookirgs simply don't san a park
and don't care If they nc e. have ne.
In the past 30 years ever pa.k propo-
sition that has been put to the vote of
the people has been turned down. The
Register has been persistently ham
mering away for a city park for the
same length of time but, with the de
cisive defeat OF the park question on
TUESDAY. we lay aside the cudgel and
give up the idea forever.
Ii is not likely that Brookings will
ever again have an opportunity 10 Sc
cure a site suitable for a park so the
issue is dead. Ii is safe 10 make the
prediction that Brookings never will
have a park. II will be interesting 20
years from now 10 tell the next gen.
GRAFTON how the city refused TO buy
that most valuable tract Of land and
buildings only three blocks from Main
street for the sum Of SIl.500. They
will scarce believe IL And they will
probably say some very uncompliment
airy things about our judgment in
turning down such an exceptional op,
portunity.

A BONUS

From reports of a caucus Of Republi.
that a three 10 one majority are in
favor of passing an adjusted compen.
sation bill at this session. The house
of representatives has already passed
the bill by an overwhelming vote. The
majority Of public sentiment favors il
The reason why the nation should
justly recompense its soldiers is very
ably set forth by George Washington,
who on June Is. 1888. when financial
conditions were far worse thar today,
made a public address as follows:
In this state OF absolute freedom
and perfect security, who will grudge
TO yield a very little Of his property
10 support the common interests of
society and insure the protection OF
government? Who does not remember
the frequent declarations at the com
mencement OF the war that we would
be completely satisfied If at the *
pense of one-half. We could defend the
remainder Of our possessions?
Where is the man who wishes TO
remain indebted for the defense Of his
own person and property to the exer-
lions, the bravery and the blood of
others. without making one generous
effort to pay the debt of honor and
gratitude? In what part Of the con-
tinent shall we find any men, or any
body OF men. who would not blush TO
stand up and propose measures cal
culated TO rob the soldier of his sti-
pend and the public creditor of his
due? And were 1t possible that such
an instance of injustice would ever
happen, would it not excite the general
Indignation and tend TO bring down
upon the authors Of such measures the
aggravated vengeance Of heaven? -"
"As to the idea which, l am in
formed, has in some instances pre-
vailed that the half pay and commute
ton are to be regarded merely in the
odious light OF a pension, 1t ought to
be exploded forever; that provision
should be reviewed as 1t really was, a
reasonable compensation offered by
congress at a time they had nothing
else to give to officers of the Army
for services to be performed; 1t was
the only means to prevent a total
dereliction Of the service; 1t was part

WHERE THE TROUBLE LIES

Hot Springs Star.-Have you read
April s issue OF the Saturday Evening
Post entitled The Gulf Impossible? 2"
If not, do SO as soon as you can look
up a copy. 1t presents a statement of
the present industrial and business
conditions which is clear and convinc-
ing. It's opening paragraph reads as
follows:
"A great gulf has formed between
the country and the town, a gulf
so wide and so deep as effectually to
separate the two, and it must be either
filled up or bridged over before any
thing like a final revival of business
is possible. Unless this is done soon
the farmer will be forced back into
the elf-sufficing system Of pioneer
days, city investments will be found
largely Improbable, and a consider
able proportion of the town will go
hungry from lack Of employment"
1t further declares:
The American farmer is a good
liver and progressive when he can af,
ford il, but he is a past master also
in the gentle art Of getting along when
hard conditions come his way. So,
like other people, he proceeded to dig
in; and without analyzing what had
happened the people Of the town
called it a buyers strike, without
stopping to realize hat one-third of
the buying power OF the country had
suddenly and effectively been para
lyzed. How could We expect to lose
a third OF our best customers for man
ufactured goods without the results
being felt not only in reduced profits
in business but in unemployment as
we'll?
THE one absolute condition IS uni
'formity of price levels, and the total
abandonment of the idea of advantage.
Advantage means that the under dog
must eventually give up. This is
strategem in war, but it is suicide in
business"
The entire article should be thought
fully read for it is economically sound

favor of the United States was the
greatest since last November. All this
is very comforting, for it means that
commerce overseas is picking up. that
American producers are finding mar
kets, that the business trend is up
ward.
The first effect of the increased
export total is the creation in America
of a stronger confidence in the final
recovery. New York interests are en-
thusiastic and are moving forward
rapidly TO take advantage of the up
turn. For nearly two weeks the daily
transactions in Wall Street have been
in excess Of 100000 shares. Moth
ing like that had been witnessed since
the war boom days. American finan-
ciers have pricked up their ears at the
Bank of England's announcement that
its discount rate had been lowered to
4 per cent. That will release enor-
nous amounts Of money for trade
purposes, which, of course, will con
tribute TO the readjustments needed
in the United Kingdom. Thus England
also resumes its journey toward nor
NAL conditions, but undeniably has a
longer way to go than the United
States.
