TEXAS DAILY PRESS LEAGUE
National Advertising Representatives
Spelling The Scenery

The automobile touring season Of 1880 is just about
over and If you asked the average tourist for his
chief impression Of the scenery along his vacation
drive the chances are that he would mention the great
national eczema Of advertising signs along the high
ways.
Looking back over a summer spent largely on tho
highways. one recalls these signboards in a dizzy.
ever-multiplying panorama. They make the ap-
proaches TO our cities hideous and they mar ones en-
Joyment Of quiet country roads; they intrude upon
pleasant vistas CT inland lakes, they dot the white
fringed seashore and they plant themselves at the
feet OF lofty. snow-tipped mountains; and the long
suffering American continues to endure them with
out protest.
a recent issue Of the Roadside Bulletin. a little
magazine published By the American Nature Asso-
citation, contains a series of pictures Of roadside adver-
Using signs. and the series is enough to make The
reader doubt the collective sanity OF the American
public.
With a magnificent continent criss-crossed BY ex-
cellent roads, and with the entire population on
wheels ready to go out and enjoy these roads. We
permit commercial interests to mar the scenery
desecrats the open country and inflict monotonous
ugliness on us from one seacoast to the other.
A number of states have tried remedy matters by
law: but the law, in this case, Is rather ineffective.
You can prohibit the erection OF signs on the high
way itself. and you can keep them from being placed
in the vicinity Of railroad grade crossings-but that
is about all. You cannot keep a needy farmer from
renting a vacant lot 10 some over-zealous advertiser.
You cannot keep a man from smearlng an ugly sign
across the side OF his barn. You cannot keep the
owner Of some dilapidated eye-sore Of an abandoned
grain elevator or rundown factory from p~lastering
it with screaming posters.
Why do we put up with It. anyway Is there
something radically wrong with our aesthetic sense.
that we permit these signboards to litter cur country
side in such profusion? No country on earth offers its
motorists such a variety Of tours to choose from: and
no country permits its tours to be spoiled as we permit
the billboard. the hotdog stand and the filling sta
ton TO spoil ours.
The remedy. Of course, lies not in law but IN an
aroused public opinion. The problem really could be
disposed of quite easily. If Americans generally
would VOW not to buy Of advertisers who deface the
landscape with bilboards. the nuisance would die
overnight. At any rate, it might be worth a try. You
can start it yourself.

The failure Of prosperity may be worrying the gov
eminent OF this colnfrv. hws thn n-~riom at Wash
ington is as nothing compared with the problem faced
in certain governments south Of the 1s-hEus OF Pana-
ma. In the United States, a business depression Is
apt to bring an unfavorable result at the polls. but in
South America. 1t is apt TO bring on a revolution.
1t Is hardly too much to say that practically all OF
the current South American revolts originated in
trade depressions. Citizens of any country get FESTIVE
when business Is bad. but in Latin America they get
downright violent
It is foolish. of course. for any country TO blame
hard times on the government in power. But al least
the situation here isn't as bad as II might be. Just
suppose that our disillusioned voters we're rushing TO
he armories instead Of TO the ballot box

Football is one Of the most popular outdoor sports
in autumn and early winter. Thousands Of people
crowd the stadia Of the country every Saturday after
noon. AS the games get better the crowds get larger.
The earlier contests are relatively unimportant
but as the season progresses the teams become more
evenly matched and public interest rises to great
heights. This is only natural under a democratic
form Of government. Our forefathers would not like
TO see IL otherwise.
When the so-called big college teams meet in a
few weeks millions OF persons will be unable TO get
tickets. This is because there are more people anxi-
GUS TO see the games than there are seats for them
This condition Will have been remedied only when
there are more seats than there are people to &C.
cupy them. This will probably take o time.
