the association and its victories.
He pointed out that times were
changed and the association would
change its program to conform to the
new condition confronting the masses
of black and white people alike. He
said he believed the adjustment neces-
sary could be mad under our present
constitutional democracy. He pledg-
ed that the association would not re-
lax its efforts in fighting for full
equality for colored Americans be-
cause white America could not be

permit Mussolini to assert again
the necessity for Italy to annihi-

THE FARM HELP PROBLEM

Some of the farmers of this vicinity much in
convenenced account of the shortage Of help to take
care of crops One prominent farmer IN town
the other day trying to get three rrgators, which ne
needed very much but unsuccessful II seems that
the relief workers like their situation pretty well and are
reluctant 10 accept outside Jobs II this situation contin
ues the may find it expeden to follow the example
Of the midwestern states in cutting out relief en-
tirey the farming industry be served Another
situation that will confront the farmers Is the har
vetng OF their cotton which caused considerable con-
fusion last year 1t is likely TO be complicated this
year the that cannot expect the influx OF
pckers this year from Texas Oklahoma and Kansas that
had year those sections report fair and good
crops which will employ the pickers.
The relief work problem is quite eommendable for
the purpose for which intended which is to supply
work for those who were without jobs. and when other
is offered they not supposed to ride the relief
program. Yet can they be censured severely when
there are army Of white collars ong in ease from the
same fund? We might suggest that the farmers solicit
the aid of fe% of these said white collars and test their
patriotism II they spread the water like some do the
fertilizer they should be very valuable the farm

We think the government project to finance people in

interest to good many families of this community
who good citizens but not able to build homes.
They have steady jobs but their surplus above living
penses will permit them TO pay for lot and build
home Some have tried avail themselves of the gov
ernment funds for this but from our reports
those who have made the venture through the exper
ience of the fellow who goes into the Mile of Mirrors
and gets out II would appear that the architects
and contractors have to be employed, and if
there is anything left for home well and good If the
purpose to help the working to have home, why
not let him have enough money to put solely into home
of his design. and terms that he pay for what
he gets We advised that there have been number
applications for funds to build homes in Coolidge but
up the present time have not heard of that has
gone and been put into operation II there is such
project that has been put oyer should be glad to have
the information that may pass TO those who de-
sire to become home owners in Coolidge.

contrast him with another of
my neighbors who is on le-
lief. He made no effort to
raise a garden OF any kind.
He and his family live from
hand 10 mouth They always
have. The spare time that
he has he spends doing moth
ing.
How much better il would
be for this man if he would
make the same effort to help
himself How much better
il would be for his own self
respect and how much better
he and his family could live.
Ny observation is that the
average small town does a
poor job in supporting its
home industries.
In my town we have a
high class home baker
equipped with the latest ma
chinery and owned by a pro-
gressive and aggressive
young baker. yet there is
three times as much out Of

What We Think
(By Frank Dixon)

That reminds me. The fact
that women smoke 10 the eX-
tent that they do is due to
the cigarette advertisement
writer's. 1t is tribute of tes-
imony 10 the power Of ad-
verising suggestion. When
the publicity began to intlu-
ence women TO smoke cigar
cites the first advertisers
merely showed a package Of
cigarettes in the same pic
ture with an attractive
young woman. Later on the
boy friend came into the
picture smoking the adver-
tised brand The next step
showed the young lady light
ing the boy friends cigarette.
As time went on the attrac-
tive young lady finally got
the package Of cigarettes in
her hand and n little later
got one in her mouth. The
change was most gradual.
The advertisement writer's
sought TO keep Just a little
ahead of the reading public
and in most instances were
successful. In the later ad-
vertisements the young wo-
man is an accomplished
smoker and the same skill
ful advertisement writer has
succeeded in carrying the
impression and the convic-
ton TO the young women of
the land that smoking cigar
cites is smart. Once they
get that idea across their
work is over except that they
must still convince the young
that to be especially smart
one must smoke only the
smart cigarettes.
