Curtis Sees Better
Day For Farmers

NEW ALBANY, Ind, oct. 1l-tR
Vice President Curtis. in a repub-
lican political address here tonight
predicted q bright future for the
American farmer.

manner developed by American in
dustry and just as p~rofitably. Co
operative methods, he declared, will
stabilize the prices. Tonight's ad-
dress was the seventh the vice-pres-
ident has made In Indiana in "A
hours.
He also defended the tariff bill
In his speech here.
People in the consuming centers,
Vice. president Curtis said, have
come TO realize the danger OF con-
tinuance OF conditions which the
farmers have experienced in the
last 3 or 4 years. The consumer
now realizes what farmers have been
receiving for their products, and
that information has brought about
a better understanding throughout
the country" he said.
"The final solution Of the farmers
problem Is 10 get a price for his
products which will mean cost OF
production plus a reasonable prof
It," the vice-president said. This
can be done and will be done only
by and through the farmer himself
and the utilization of the necessary
agencies which the government has
created TO accomplish the result

What ether Cities Spend
A thorough stuSy reveals that
Atlanta, Ca, spends $500, 600 a year
on advertising, and has done this
for 6 years; Corpus Christi, $1,000
to $1,000: Galveston, 5000 to
$50. 900; New Orleans. s425. 900 per
year; Alameda County, Calf, $780,

year: and Atlantic City, ~. j..
5000. 900. The increases IN popula-
ton and tourist traffic has been
SO satisfactory that the cities listed
above and hundreds Of others are
continuing the expenditures.
The plan submitted by Mr.. Street
Is emphatic in stating that thor
ough preparation be made in
Brownsville first. Local citizens
should be boosters, and should
know what the city has to offer.
This should be done by talks be-
fore luncheon clubs, schools and
over the radio; stories in news
papers: window displays by mer-
chants and bankers; stickers for
cars: contests. mass meetings and
public speakers. In addition TO this
the Brownsville trade territory

Professional Aid Needed
AS soon as citizens are educated
up to the point where outside ad-
vertising woul be ready, profession
al help will be needed for city
planning. for a complete industrial
survey, and for composition Of ad-
vertising. Advertising suggested r
booklets. folders. radio, newspaper
magazine and outdoor signs.
Cooperation during the campaign
Is essential from the railroads,
merchants. and newspapers. Rail-
roads could aid by routing excur-
sions 10 Brownsville. by mentioning
the Valley on menus and literature
Merchants could help by tie-up adj
vertising. trade territory advertis-
ing, window and store displays. and
cooperation from employees. News
pape.s are expected to aid in edit

IL was further suggested that
Brownsville and the Valley be
prominently boosted On letterheads

RECORD IS SET
BY WESTERN
ELECTRIC

NEW YORK, Jan. l4-Sales of
Inc western Electric Company
curing 1929 reached $4OO, OO0, 900,
the largest in the history Of the
company, and comparing with
1881. 100000 for 1928.
AS indicated by the number
OF orders on its books for 1880
at this early date, sales for the
coming year will even surpass
the high level for the past year,
the company stating that the
orders books are the largest since
1t was founded so years ago.
Substantial expansions and In
proVements to the company's
three main plants are planned
Tor 1880, according to w. r.
Hosford, vice president in charge
Of manufacture.
Expenditures Of about $55, 000,-
600 are involved In the program
for the three plants at Kearney,
the Hawthorne works in Chicago
and the Point Breeze works in
Baltimore.
The extent of the expansion
contemplated, stated Hosford to-
day, may be better appreciated
from the fact that the additional
floor space to be provided amounts
to approximately 1850, 900 square
feet, which Is about 40 per cent
OF the present permanent floor
space in these works.
The company estimates that
during 1880 it will use in the
manufacture Of lead-covered cable
more than $1,000, 100000 feet Of
copper wire, a quantity sufficient
to reach from the earth to the
moon over 230, 900 times.
In drawing on other manufac-
turerS for finished products, it is
estimated that $50, 000, 900 will be
expended for the purchase Of tele-
phone poles, cross-arms, under.
ground conduit, copper line-wire
and insulated wire alone. Over
$50, 900, 900 900 additional will be
spent for a variety Of other ma
terials, ranging all the way from
pencils to motor trucks.
