Every line of type that goes into
a newspaper costs money to set and
print, yet some folks seem to think
nothing of asking an editor to do
nate a column or a half a column
to some scheme in which they are
interested, merely as matter of
news. In many communities the
practice is run into the ground. The
editors have neglected to educate
their public. They think nothing
of asking as a gift, publicity, the
only thing the editor has to sell, un-
der the guise that it is news.

It is rumored that the admins
tration contemplates an overhauling
of the social security program with
a sharp increase in payroll taxes
even to doubling the l percent now
paid by the employers and en-
ployees. A number of reasons are
given for the proposed change. One
reason is to create a cushion" Tor
a post war slump in business and
employment. The other is a curb
on initiation. The latter reason is
silly. There are more sensible ways
to prevent initiation which the ad-
ministration might use, but because
of fear of political groups 1t fears to
attempt to apply Them.

should never ask anyone for a favor
over a telephone. They just don't
have the telephone voice that gets
favors. On the other hand there are
those whose voices are music over
the telephone. They are perhaps &C
companied with just as pleasing per-
sonalities if the listner could see
them face to face. A pleasing voice
nearly always goes with a pleasing
personality and an unpleasant voice
with just that kind of a personality.

Local Publisher
Appointed as
Navy Editor
to help "sell" youth on
on advantages of join
ing US. naval forces -

At the suggestion of Secretary of
Navy Knox, r. E. Reed Of The Cour-
/, ier-Reporter has been made Navy
Editor, to help the Navy in giving
! ambitious local young men informa-
ton about the opportunities the
'Two-Ocean" Navy offers them for
technical training and advancement
as they serve their country in its
emergency.
According to an announcement
made public in Washington, limit
ed number of additional men be-
tween the ages of II and so will be
given chance, by enlistment in the
Navy or Naval Reserve, to get to the
top, with big pay, in jobs which by
their aptitude and as result of eX-
animation they show themselves
fitted, from among nearly so diff
ferent trades and vacations.
These include such callings as
aviation machinist, dental techni-
clan, photographer, diesel engineer,
radio technician, electrician, welder,
storekeeper and baker. Enlisted
men may also qualify for commits
sions as officers.
Limited Time
Beginning this week, the Navy
plans for a limited. time to accept
new qualified men for training.
These men will be sent to one of
four Naval Training Stations and
may have a chance to go to a Navy
Trade School even before assign
ment to the fleet. During this per-
iod they will be given regular Navy
pay and the Nays free schooling is
valued at hundreds of dollars.
Never in the history of the Unit
ed States has there been greater OPP
portunity for loyal young Americans
to serve their country and build
their futures than right now" said
Secretary Knox.
In outlining the many advantages
Doffered by enlistment in the Unit
ed States Navy, Mr.. Reed, Navy Edi-
tor of the Courier-Reporter said, "It
is possible for bright young man
to increase his pay seven times dur
ing his first enlistment and he can
earn as much at $l26 a month. This
much more when it is remembered
that the man has few living ex-
penses and is provided with the fin
est Of medical and dental care.
"You have all your food and lodg-
ing, and also your original outfit of
clothing provided by Uncle Sam
Free" Mr.. Reed continued. I'm adj
dition there are free sports and en-
tertainment- to the latest Hol-
lywood pictures. On top of this you
get free travel land adventure in
colorful places-a thing few civilians
can afford. -
Limited Number
when you consider the size of
this country and the fact that the
Navy viii select only 5000 apph-
cants a month from many times
that number throughout the United
States, the quotation, Many are
called but few are chosen will apply
to local young men interested.
Navy men are a rhand-picked' lot.
Candidates must be men of more
than average intelligence and ambi-
ton, of fine moral character and
must have the written recommends
ton of at least two local townspeo-
pie" aa.g, g." .,r

IN COMPARISON

Talk all you want about politics
disagreeing over farm programs, OF
dissension among the growers re-
garding agricultural restrictions, it
has generally been this way between
government and farm. But when
YOU can't find much in the news
but labor disputes among factories,
strikes, picketing and walk-outS, the
agricultural situation is peaceful in
comparison. Imagine every farmer
in the country belonging to a I'M
ion and all of them striking togeth-
er. They would stop feeding hogs
until pork reached a high, and the
housewife, out of sympathy for the
cause, refused to churn until butter
prices were raised. Butter or no
butter, she wouldn't cfrrn a
smidgen! The farmers helper be
longs to farm union and he would
reach the COW and then he called on
strike. No milking, not one drop,
until his wage demand was met! So
would the food supply be shut off
IN this country and foreign nations
depending upon us would suffer
too. Let the potatoes go, no digging
until this thing was settled. Thresh
not until We get satisfaction! The
buyer can do without meat and milk,
butter, eggs and vegetables. So has
labor, through the pickering of I'm
ions for personal grievances and
baking by union leaders, stopped
producing weapons with which to
defend it's country, its liberty, its
family and itself. Weapons that
might be more necessary than but
ter and eggs to our lives. The situa-
ton has gone beyond reason and
those in Kennewick who have al
ways been in favor of labor's rights
are wondering If it is fair that the
whole labor should have to suffer
because of the jealousies Of few.

Newspaper Week has come and
gone. We don't know just what the
fellows who set aside the weeks for
these various things had in mind in
designating a week to be known as
Newspaper Week., but the high point
in it to us came when subscriber
came into the office and said: II
notice it is Newspaper Week, !
don't know what it is for but I want
to pay my subscription the year that
is back and two years ahead. If that
isn't what Newspaper Week is for
it should be-" We agree with this
subscriber. His visit gave meaning
to the whole week to us that it 9TH
erwise wouldn't have had. We hope
the movement grows and that next
year when Newspaper Week comes
around again that response will be
more or less general sE

Americans who are assumed to
take a great deal of pride in the fact
that they can worship as they please
are noted for their inclination to lie
abed Sunday morning and not attend
worship services at all. Perhaps a
modern version of the expression
would be that American are ready
to fight for the privilege of worship
ing or not as they please.
