The Grass Roots Is Doing
The Best Job
WASHINGTON - Local news
papers serve local communities,
cities and counties. They cover
most OF the people of our nation.
Local papers are the only news
papers read by every member of
the family.
Local papers always carry good
deal Of information about affairs
in their states. Newspapers per-
form great service in keeping
track Of trends through the states
Within recent years local papers
have been giving more and more
attention to national affairs. They
are keeping in closer touch with
affairs that are rocking our cOun-
try.
The New Deal, the Raw Deal
the Fair Deal and thesLabor Unions
have upset the American Economic
System.
On top of all these disturbances
the United States is now sort OF
nurse-maid for all the world
Capital and labor should be
friends and work for the United
States, and pull together. We are
still a rich nation. We must ad-
Just the American Government tC
conditions of freedom, independ.
ence. and ability to meet the prop
er demands of all of our citizens
from the poorest individuals TO the
topsl
In short, we can do it! There
is nothing the matter with the Uni.
ted States except politics-and Oul
politics in the National Capital are
at the lowest ebb.
After all, we are unselfshly striv-
ing to restore normal living, work
ing, and other sound systems in the
American Government.
Say and think what you will
practically the entire population il
the United States is trying to re
store America as "the land of tht
free and the home of the brave.
So let's all be good, and strive t
make a better country, and better
world.
Taxes Are A Big Issue
Tax revisions next year are sur,
to be held down at least TO tn,
present figures. But you needn'
be surprised if the present taxa
ton will be knocked in the head b,
both the political parties. It is
sure thing that all the people ar
sick and tired of higher and highe
taxes. Even President Truman
