Marias Fair Plans
Are Proceeding

Rumors, newspapers and radios
no doubt will continue pro and
con remarks relative to cancella-
ton of Fairs. These. however,
are definitely not affirmed, and
until such, we will appreciate
your continuance of the splendid
cooperation you have already
shown.
Speaking for the Marias Fair
Board, we all agree that we may
be somewhat hampered by the
various rationings and regula-
tons, but we are going ahead
with plans to present one of the
best Fairs possible under war
conditions. w e believe. IS a
matter of morale. it is better to
keep things going than to stop.
We have contracted tops in
the way of entertainment and be.
lieve that people are going to 60
somewhere, and the Marias Fair
does not involve a long trip.
We like publicity. we urge and
seek your support, and do want it
favorable. Frequent remarks
about cancellation are working a
hardship on US. Won't you
please close your ears to this sort
of talk, have no part of it, and
with everyone joining in we can
make this Fourth Annual Fair
success.

Why Pick The Fairs?

The co.ordinator of defense
transportation has again advised
the managers of the agricultural
fairs to cancel their shows fer
this season, despite the fact that
they have already gone to much
expense in planning their exhi-
billions and programs.
Such big events as the Mime
sofa State fair, one of the big
gest in the country, so far have
denied Mr.. Eastman's request
and have gone on with their plans
for the season. The fairs in fact
are becoming somewhat irked at
the pressure being put on them
when the big race tracks of the
country are going stronger than
ever without any interference
from Washington.
Much adverse comment h a 9
been heard over the fact that in
New Jersey a big race track has
been built this year using much
precious steel to give the New
York metropolitan area another
big race meet. Railroads run spec.
ial trains to the tracks in the
eastern race centers, race fans
burn up the road with thousands
of cars daily, while millions are
wageo on t h e pari. mutuels at
the tracks. That goes on with.
out protest from the ODT. Yet
rural America is asked to give up
its time honored shows as q war
measure when it has relatively
few big summer events as q re.
Taxation from the strain of anxi-
GUS times. Why pick on the fairs?
