YOUNG o FACE H TOUGH TASK
OF DECIDING UPON WHAT THEY
SHALL DO AS A LIFE WORK
The sooner that can be determined definitely, the better it
will be for them. 1t may save a few Years of expensive
experimenting and dsiappointments.
Every line of endeavor has its advantages and short
eominss. There is N O utopia" in the working field.
Business is manysided. 1t demands men and women with
abilities along many lines. Its doors are open to both men
and women. In business men and women have opportunity
for self-expression, achievement, and social standing worthy
of the education of the college graduate.
Business employs the analyst as an accountant, the nurse,
LAWYER. doctor, the artist for welfare and personnel work;
for sanitation, hygiene and legal work; in advertising, dis
plays, etc. Business requires those who are adapted to
marketing, manufacturing and managing. Positions as man
ayers, organizers and leaders are numerous and usually
difficult to fill.
Young People Have to Be Developed for
All Positions of Responsibility
Executives train their future executives by taking in young
people as stenographers, secretaries, bookkeepers, account
ants, etc. While doing the regular routnes in these posi-
lions they learn how to do more important duties that are
closely connected with their starting positions.
If you have ability to learn and are willing
to do the work, you can do your best at the

Mexican Papers
Strike Over
NewsDrint Cost

NOGALES. Sonora, Mex, Sept. 22.
UP)-Protesting newSprint prices
that more than trebled in the last
three years, 18 Sonora newspapers
Friday began a two-day publishing
strike"
Jose Pomposo Salazar. publisher
of Nogales La Accion and president
of new organization of newspaper
publishers in Sonora, said the shut
down was designed to focus atten-
ton on the nt-approVed
system whereby company known
as PI.P.S.A. holds a complete mo-
nopoly on importation of newSprint
into Mexico.
Asserting that the cost of paper
has skyrocketed from the equiva-
lent of 50 for 1000 sheets in l94l
to about $640 at present, Salazar
said:
I'VE feel that we are being ex-
plotted under this system. If Ameri-
can companies could import paper
directly to us, we could buy 1t
cheaper than the prevailing rate
even though We would have to pay
a duty. P.IP.SA. does not have to
pay any duty.
I'VE have appealed to President
Comacho and other government Of
ficials and Thursday night we sent
a telegram to congress denouncing
the monopoly. We hope that our
suspension of publication will throw
a strong light on this vicious situa-
ton and help to end it,

Dewey made his initial bid for
