PAYING THE
CHILD
LOIS SMELLING

Tommie Deane and Joe Land were
going to the movies together, and
Tommie, accompanied by his mother,
arrived at Joe's home.
"Have you your money, dear?" Mrs.
Land asked Joe, when the boys were
ready to start.

out of his pocket to show her.
When the two were gone, Mrs.
Deane, who had come to visit with
Mrs. Land, while their sons were away,
remarked, what does Joe do to earn
his money!"
"Oh, he's pretty good about tasks
around the house. There are a num-
ber of little jobs that he understands
are his, and that it is his responsibility
to get them DONE"
'Well, do you pay him for each job,
or lump sum for all of them?"
"Why, | don't pay Joe for doing his
work. | don't like the idea of CONNER
cializing the home in that way. When
| married Charles, and we launched
the project of carrying on home, /
wouldn't have liked to have him say,
Now, here is a quarter for cooking
dinner today. Get the dishes washed
up, and I'll pay you ten cents more.
The home was mutual affair, and our
income was also. Keeping the house
was my job, while Charles ran the
office that produced the income. We
decided on an allowance from that in
come for the family expenses, and it
was my problem to keep within it.
"Then when Joe came along, we
just considered him a third member of

DEMOCRACY
Our nations slogan is that we are
preparing to defend the last strong
hold of democracy in the Western
world. In the last war we were said
to be fighting to make the world safe
for democracy. Negro Americans
have no quarrel with these aims. But
they believe democracy ought to be a
reality at home. They think democ-

SAN FRANCISCO VERSUS
LOS ANGELES

There is a big lesson for Us all IN the
recently released census figures for the
cities of Los Angeles and san Francisco.
if we will Just look for that lesson.
Los Angeles showed population gain
of approximately 25S,000 residents
San Francisco showed a population
loss of Approximately 4,S41 residents.
Both communities have similarly IA
vored market areas. Both are thanked
by rich agricultural territory Both are
"naturals" insofar as manufacturing and
industry are concerned. Both have eli
mates which are respectively claimed to
be ideal. Both have fine harbors and
are metropoli of the Pacific coast.
But why has San FranciscO's beautl-
full harbor. once teaming with world
shipping. dropped lower and lower until
it has almost reached the classification
of deserted inlet in comparison with its
former glory? And why on the other hand
has Los Angeles which had no really
natural harbor produced one and finds
within it constantly growing world COM
merce? Why is finance and industry
and payrolS and people increasing in
the southern city and decreasing in the
northern?
You know the answer. IT is the STRIFE
between industry and employees in San
Francisco It is the unintelligent union
ism being practiced in the northern city.
Everybody realizes what is happening.
That is. everybody but those poor, de-
luded workers who do not, or cannot
resist the blinds being pulled over their
regimented eyes by leaders who shame
the high purposes of unionism.
San Francisco and Los Angeles are
living examples of the fact that neither
you nor anybody else can WIPE OUT
THE LAWS OF ECONOMICS AND
NATURE BY EITHER LEGISLATION
OR FALSE MOB OPINION OR FALSE,
TRAITOROUS LEADERSHIP.

ations because they dared to oppose and
indicate mistakes or errors.
In California we have witnessed nu-
merous political reprSals" against those
of different political creed. or even slm-
lar creeds but different ambitions and
objectives.
AT a meeting of our own city council
in FL Centre an organization refused to
reveal its membership claiming that II
feared political repriSalS' against the
membership. While We believe the eN-
cuse a ruse and completely uniustfied.
the theory is there Just the same.
1t is a sad state Of affairs when we
permit political battle To enter this far
into government. Politics should and
must end at the polls Our voting meth
cd is designed TO determine public Off
cialS who are TO operate our government.
It is not designed to determine what
politicians are to win "A position of want

ANY person who carries his or her

not deserve the privilege of participat-

MODERN ADVERTISING
{ Riverside Daily PresS)

I'm 1897. manufacturers spent over
5000. .OOO. 900 for newspaper, magazine
and radio advertising. This does not in
clude the millions spent for other types
of advertising nor the millions spent by
local merchants in communities such as
Riverside.
Why is the expenditure of this Staggcr-
ing amount Justified Why isn't the
amount passed on the the consumer IN
lower prices? The answer lies III an I'M
dcrstanding of the economic function
of advertising.
Advertising is news Just aS the news
columns of the Press and Enterprise
bring the readers information as to the
happenings of the world, 50 the adrer-
tising columns bring facts about mcr-
chandiSe available 10 make life comfort
able. convenient and complete.
The only reason that you can obtain
merchandise at constantly lower prices
is because advertising has brought thou
sands of buyers In each seller. Ihat Is
the reason for advertising
How many persons could have afford

American. your answer Will he very
few"
WHY? Because few people knew about
the product and the price to those few
was very high. as il cost more to manu-
facture the few than the many of today.
Ii is safe To say that practically every
worthwhile convenience in the home to
day is ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS product
If il weren't. il would either cost too
= - hn
Without advertising. sales volume would
shrink tremendously and prices would 90
up i'm proportion.
Chronic agitatorS question the truth
of advertising. They say many advertise
mentS are exaggerated. misleading, un-
true.
Once i'm while, they may be right.
Even though we have laws that prevent
unScrupulouS advertisers from making
false claims. government agencies TO pro
tect the buyers. and rules made by ad-
vertiScrS' groups for their own protcc-
tion, an occasional advertiser CVadcS the
rules.
But there is one thing sure as fate,
and that is that the final iury-thc pub
lic-wil declare him guilty. No adver
tiser can fool the public very long about
the quality of his product. and most of
them are smart enough not TO try. Some
NAV be over-enthusiaStic. which is, after
all. only human.
So. knowing what advertising has done
for the common people. and knowing
that prices are continually being lower
ed and quality raised as result of large
scale manufacturing and advertising,
let's be thankful that America has the
manufacturers and the advertising and
the well-to-do homeOwncrS 10 take adj
vantage of the combination.
