Using, too, costs nothing-when its
benefits are taken into account.
Of course neither of these state
ments is literally true. The cost of
paint can be reckoned in dollars and
cents expended for the product itself
and for the labor of applying it. And
the production and placing of adj
vertisments costs sums which are
hugely impressive in the aggregate.
But advertising, like paint, amply
justifies its cost by doing job that
nothing else can do.
Advertising does major share OF
the work of selling goods. 1t not
only stimulates the sale of products
for which there is known demand
1t frequently creates markets where
they had not existed before. And il
broadens and develops those markets
amazingly.
Advertising has put hitherto un-
known and unsought fruit juices and
cereals upon countless American
breakfast tables. Advertising has led
millions to brush their teeth more
regularly and to visit their dentists
more often. Advertising has solo
travel on land, water and through the
air. By helping to sell millions Of
automobiles it has indirectly built 6
network of highways that has made
all America a neighborhood. By
stimulation of cosmetics sales it ha:

Advertising alone has made mas:
production, national distribution ano
lower prices possible. Net anyone
who can look back twenty years re-
call the history of automobile tire:
as one striking example out of many
which prove this statement). Like
paint, its benefits so far outweigh
other considerations that it canno
really be said to "cost" at all.

Human Side OF
The Vote

Let us take a look under the sur
face of the voting in Tuesdays cleo
tons, which showed such startling
reverSeS and upsetS. Not only in
Minnesota. where the Farmer-Labor
administration, which has held state
governmental reinS for the past eight
years, was the election surprising to
many, but throughout the country,
where it is expected even at this
early hour that Republicans will gain
more than 80 seats in both houses of
Congress.
The fact that Minnesota's admin
iStration was kicked out" and that
the LaFollette reign in Wisconsin
was broken, is not the only shock
to progreSSiveS here and New Dealers
everywhere, but the fact that Gov
ernor Herbert H. Lehman'S narrow
squeeze over his Republican OPP
ponent in New York, is sufficient
cause for the New Deal to take stock
of its situation.
The fact that throughout the mid
western corn belt states, Ohio, In
diana, Illinois and Iowa and west
ward into wheat-producing Kansas
and Nebraska, Republicans rolled up
their largest totals since 1882, gives
Henry Wallace and his farm pro-
gram real problem and furnishes
him food for thought as to the future.
These totals and other trends of the
elections need not be taken absolutely
as slap in the face" for New Deal
ers, but they might be taken like
the slap of half extended claws of
kitty to an overplayful puppy .
just a warning that the occupants of
the bread basket of the country are
getting to the point when they are
to do much of their own thinking
and to the point where they want
more than 52-cent wheat, 33-cent corn
and 25-cent butterfat
Even though the loss to the Re-
publicans by the Farmer-Laborites
in Minnesota, the Progressives to the
Republicans in Wisconsin,; the Demo-
Gratis to a Republican governor in
Michigan; the loss of a Democratic
governorship and senatorship in
Ohio to Republicans, and Democratic
losses in Kansas, Pennsylvania, Con-
necticut and a few other states is a
bitter ''pill'' to take by liberals in
thought and action throughout the
country, it should convince them that
no one is perfect and that no move
ment can keep the upward plane of
travel throughout the years without
setbacks along the trail
1t is well, then, that we take stock
of ourselves. 1t is well that we take
Tuesdays vote not as fluky acct
dent or a corruptly earned victory
by our opponents, but that we take
it as hint that something has been
wrong with ourselves. That, maybe
we have drifted slightly away from
the path which we set out to follow
The people have awakened; they
do not need a Paul Revere to ride
by their bedside every night to awak-
en- them; they are at last aware OF
their responsibilities of government
They no longer will ask others to
do their thinking; they are going tc
use their constitutional right at the
ballot box
Let's take stock of ourselves anc
see if we can't improve. Don't give
up in confusion, just because we have
lost a political battle! Build! Builc
for a better and a real rank and file
progressive movement in Minnesot;
and elsewhere in the nation.
