tation along this line, a cooperative
leader submitted an article, and Of
fered to pay space rates for publica-
tion, to the dailies of Wichita. but
they said him nay, to them it appear
ed to be a "smear against Wichita
merchants" However, the Wichita
Plaindealer, labor paper which prac-
tices the gospel of "free press"
rather than preaching it, did give
space to the article and the scoops"
eventually reached the public eye.
1t may be noted in passing that GIN

trouble in buying space to get their
side OF the story of their differences
OF opinion into public print. This may
have been, as the daily publishers are
alleged to have said, somewhat diff
ferent."
