COMMUNITY SUICIDE
champion (Iowa) Chronicle)

\iONdJ Vii OlliSAC/
1t has been said that towns do not
die, they commit suicide. And it is
true. If everybody who makes his
money in this community would spend
his money in this community, the
home town would double in population
in a few years and everybody in and
around it would be prosperous. Why
are filing stations out of proportion to
every other line of business in num-
Der? Because people buy almost all
of their gas and oil at home.
1t is really inexplainable why peO-
of town needlessly, when the results
of this practice are so costly. We
know of one individual in the city now
out of job. This particular indi-
vidual rarely spent cent in Hamp-
ton, even when he could have saved
money. Some two or three years ago
this person was informed that if his
practice of spending money out of the
city continued, he would work himself
out of job entirely. And that is
just what happened. How can the
business men or anyone else hire en-
ployes if they have nothing for them
to do, or no money to pay them?
When you spend dollar outside you
take it right out of the pocket of some
local citizen.
And speaking of the penny wise
and pound foolish" policy, this is it.
Save a few cents by spending your
money in some other city, and then in
the course of time you find your
husband out of job because business
conditions here will not warrant his
remaining in some ones employ.
The fight is on in all smaller cities.
This does not apply only to Hampton.
1t is becoming very serious ques-
ton, and that must be reckoned with
in the near future. Just as mentioned
above, the small city is not dying;
it is committing suicide inch by inch.
Instead of casting this idea off like
SO many snowflakes, it is time, and
right now, when every individual
should give the matter serious
thought. Otherwise, therell be more
vacant stores in the city than we re-
greet to report today.

EDUCATION AND UNEMPLOYMENT
(The Blooming Prairie Times)

(The Blooming Prairie T1meS)
New situations bring emphasis on
new angles of a problem. For years
discussions have been centered on the
comparative earning power of the
schoOled and underschOoled individu-
ais, the average upward curve varying
almost directly to the degree of edu-
cation acquired.
A large mid-western city recently
conducted a survey of thousand job
less persons who were being support
ed by the taxpayers of the community.
Ninety, per cent of this thousand had
less than an eighth grade education.
1t would seem unnecessary to go far
Their for that figure should be con-
vincing. OF the remaining hundred,
only seven of them, or seven tenths of
one per cent of the entire group, were
high school graduates. None had been
to college. On the basis of these fig
ures, the high school graduate has

Even though it was outwardly ap-

MUNITIONS AND WAR
springfield Advance-Press)

The federal government might not
show quite the efficiency of our NUM-
tiOn manufacturers but if the United
States manufactured its own war ma
terial, it would do so in the hope that
its use would not be necessary. NUM-
tion makers must have a war &C.

evidence is being uncovered to indi-
cate that they are not averse to start
ing one. If all governments would
eliminate private munition factories,
there would be fewer wars. The pro-
fit motive is strong. 1t should be
eliminated from all war preparations.
Public sentiment in this country is
due to kill this one private industry.

A GRAND SHOWING

The recent primary election in Wis
consin at which the new third party
made its debut showed to the amaze
ment of the old parties and to the joy
of Progressives that their Babe in
destined to grow into a robust per-
sonage. When it is considered that
the combined Progressive vote exceed
ed that of the Republican party and
pressed hard the entrenched Demo-
cratic party in the state, Prcgressives
have cause for much citation.
Phillip LaFollette the candidate for
governor on the new Progressive party
ballot made the following statement
after the returns of the election were
made certain:
Never before in the history of
American politics has a new political
party displayed the comparative
by the new Progressive party on Tues
day."
And it must be remembered that
there were no major contests at the
top of the Progressive party to bring
out a vote. In the other parties there
were spirited contests for the NOM
ination for governor and United States
senator, but it was a foregone con-
clusion that Robert NJ. LaFollette, Jr.
and his brother, Phil, would be named
as the new party's choice for United
States senator and governor respec-
lively, therefore there was not so
much incentive for Progressives to get
out and vote.
In commenting on the outcome of
the election the Capital Times reports
as follows:
"In the vote for governor, Phil La
Toilette and Meisel polled approx
mately 10000 votes on the Progress
sive ticket On the Democratic ticket
Schmedeman polled approximately
10000, Rubin 10000, and Lehman
$4,000. But the Rubin vote was an
anti-Schmedeman vote. 1t is safe to
say that the big bulk of the Rubin
vote will not be found in the Demo-
cratic columns in November. The
Rubin vote was a personal tribute
Milk Pool and Farm Holiday associ-
alton who remembered Mr.. Rubin's
work in their behalf. 1t is more than
likely that large proportion of the
Rubin vote will go to LaFollette in
November"
In further comment the Capital
Times said:
But the verdict in November will
be decided by huge block of voters
who remained away from the polls on
Tuesday. The total vote cast for all
parties on Tuesday was approximately
100000, only so per cent of the vote
cast in the presidential primary two
years ago. 1t is fair to assume that
the Democrats got out a bigger share
of their vote on Tuesday than did the
other parties. The Democrats had the
benefit of huge political machine
and spirited contests within the party
for the nominations for governor and
the Republican party. 1t is safe
prediction that the Progressives will
benefit largely by the increased vote
in November.
But the Progressives have great
cause for satisfaction as a result of
Tuesdays vote. The vote is ample
vindication of the judgment of those
who decided to break away from the
Republican party and create a new
political party. For political infant
to be able to poll a larger combined
vote than the Republicans in it's first
time out is indeed a remarkable ac-
complishment. 1t demonstrates that
the new Progressive party is here to
stay in both Wisconsin and the ma
tion."

extra $1,000 t. the salesman with
the greatest cash total, exclusive
of trade-ins.
