VEN in this age of enlightenment
some folks spend their money
- blindly. They buy with their
eyes shut. They grope in the dark as
truly as If their eyes were bandaged.
And all the time powerful light is
being thrown on the very things they
need and want!
Advertising is beacon to guide you
in buying. It shows you what to buy
where to buy-and when to buy. At
the same time, it protects you against
fraud and inferiority.
Merchants and manufacturers who
advertise deliberately focus thousands
of eyes upon their wares. Their values
must be honest and their prices right, or
they could not advertise successfully.
Don't play blind mans buff with the
elusive dollar. Spend a few minutes
each day running through the adver-
tisements in this paper. Then buy the
products that have proved up in the

j. S. RECOGNITION
URGED FOR RUSSIA
Senator Brookhart Says Ac.
ton Would Eliminate
World Unrest.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DES MONIES, Iowa. September -
Recognition of the soviet government Of
Russia does not mean official approval
of that government by the United States
any more than ii means approval of
the acts of several other governments
that have been recognized Senator
Smith W. Brookhart of Iowa declared in
a statement published here today in the
Iowa Legionaire, organ of the Iowa de-
partment of the American Legion. Such
recognition, said the senator, was ad-
rocated by him only on the grounds
that it might have a far-reaching effect
in restoring world prosperity and elimi-
mating world unrest.
Senator Brookhart's statement was a
reply to a resolution recently adopted
by the state American Legion conven-
tIon, in which the eX-Service men op-
posed recognition of the soviet govern
ment.
Mr.. Brookhart is member of the
Legion.
LAS matters stand now" said Sena-
tor Brookhart, there are three alterna-
tiVes in Russia-the present govern
nent, czarism, or chaos.
The present government is many
times better than czarism. which we
times better than the unspeaka BILE Turk
with his long history of Christian muir
dcrs. but whose government we have
always recognized and do now.
Does Not Mean Approval.
The recognition of a government
does not mean its approval II it did
i should oppose it. and there are sew
eral other countries whose recogni-
t1on L would withdraw. There is only
one argument for the recognition of
Russia. 1t may tend to settle the
world unrest and restore world pros
perity. The United States govern
lnent has already done much more for
Russia than apy mere recognition by
voting S24,n0O,n00 for famine relief.
Nohod! approves the excuses and
crueltIes of the revolution, even
though they We're inevitable. Every
body thinks CZariSm should have been
overthrown. The present government
although the voice of the peasant
grows stronger in it every day This
unltes the vast majority of the people
in its support.
"on The whole. l think they will
have to modify many things in their
government, even as We have done by
nineteen amendments to our ConSti-
tuition.
"Russia's propa ganda against the
United States is dead. 1t never was
une-tcnth part Of what We put out
against them. Every Russian | meet
expresses the deepest friendship for
Am" rica. There is every reason to
bcii"V" it was genuine"
