Subscription Sales Rackets

MOST of the local veterans organiza-
W. tons throughout Montana and north
ern Wyoming turn thumbs down on the
high-pressure, sympathy appeal, circulation
building drives that seek their sponsorship.
Some of them have innocently fallen for
such schemes in the past and have reaped
the usual harvest of criticism that inevita-
bly, follows the operations of most of these
sales promotions.
Other local posts have been warned
against lending their names to the SYM
pathy statesmen, the points-for-school oper-
ators and all the rest of the tribe that use
such appeals to sell magazine subscriptions.
Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1950-06-15

But every season few local posts here
and there about the state allow themselves
to be sucked into deals of this kind by clev-
er, fast-talking, subscription-crew manag-
ers. The offer of small percent of the SUBJ
scription collections in return for state
ments on the organizations letterhead spon-
soring the drive for wheelchairs, iron lungs,
hospital beds or polio equipment seems
harmless enough to the uniformed.
Local officers of the organization who
have not been informed of the tactics so
often used by such circulation promoters
don't realize that their letters of endorse
ment have the effect of turning loose a

group of fast-working, fast-talking opera
upon the local rural community
Too often, the statesmen give the farmer
the impression that most of the money he
pays them will go to the local organization
for badly needed hospital equipment Ac-
tually only small percentage of collections
go to the local post and, in many cases that
have been investigated, the hospitals in the
area are fully equipped with the apparatus
for which the statesmen claim such a dire
need.
When the real story gets around after
the high-pressure boys have departed for
new pastures, the farm people quite natur-
ally resent the manner in which they have
been imposed upon. Their confidence in,
and respect for, the local sponsoring organ
ization is greatly lessened.
Most of the national veterans organiza-
tons have exposed these sympathy -rackets
in their official publications But new
groups of officers are elected by the local
posts from time to time and inevitably some
of these new officials are unaware of the
danger of sponsoring drives of this kind.
That is why continued educational work on
the part of national and state organizations
is so necessary if local posts and local rural
communities are to be protected.
Farmers who belong to local veterans
posts will do a service to their organization
and their community if they make it point
to inform new officials periodically about
these high-pressure schemes Subscription
promotions of this kind prefer the "spon-
sorship" of veterans organizations above
all others because their clever sales pattel
can then play upon both the sympathy" ane
patriotic" appeals in their drive for "contri
buttons" donations" or just plain subscrip

Your love for your wife, how
ever beautiful and complete 1t
was, was just boys love. It was
nothing to the passion that you
will be able to feel some day for
a woman who meets all the needs
of your mature manhood, and for
this reason it is dangerous thing
for you to marry girl who comes
UP to your ideal but does not fire
your fancy.
OF course, marrying a girl who
adores you has its advantages.
The wife who loves her husband
better than he loves her is always
breaking her neck to please him
His august word is her law, and
she is as humbly grateful for a
little kindness as a starving dog
is for bone.
But in love it is more blessed to
give than to receive. Especially is
this true with men, and so think
that it is dangerous experiment
for a youth of "a to conclude that
he has lost all power Of loving and
to marry woman on the platonic
basis. He will want something
more Of life than just a makeshift
wife who is good cook and saves
his money,

Young Widower Urged to Avoid

DEAR MISS DIX: am young
man of "a, widower. I am very
settled. There is a girl who loves
me very dearly, who is quiet, dig
nified, thrifty and a good house
keeper.
I admire her and enjoy her
company very much, but when
my wife died my heart died. too,
and I feel that I cannot love this
girl as she loves me. Another OBJ
lection to this girl is that she is
very short. am nearly II inches
taller than she is. Do you think
If married her we would be
happy? x. x. x.
Answer: Certainly the girls
height should be no bar to- your
union.
AS for your feeling that you have
buried your heart in the grave OF
your first wife and that you will
never be able to care for any
woman again. that is the pessi-
mism of youth. We who are ole

have outlived sorrows and out

Wonnen's Clubs
1850 AAUW Achievement Award
Presented to DR.. Elizabeth Crosby

/ students, DR.. Weeks spoke enthu-
siastically of the programs success
yesterday in an interview at ma
tional headquarters.
"One of the things that most
impressed the women I met" DR..
Weeks declared, was the idealism
of American women, in raising
money for the program through
benefits and all kinds Of fund
raising projects"
DR.. Weeks decision to inspect
the results of the fellowship pro-
gram was made when she re-
ceived a Guggenheim fellowship
to study spectroscopic laboratories
in Holland and Sweden. She is
professor of physics at Wilson
College in Chambersburg, Pa. To
achieve her purpose, she added to
her itinerary England, France,
Luxembourg, Belgium, Denmark,
Finland, Norway and Germany.
DR.. Weeks particularly had
praise for the women in countries
which have not yet fully recov-
cred from the effects Of the war.
In Finland, for example, where
she visited the Chemical Insti-
tute of the University of Finland
at Hallitusk, she found women
scientists working under the
most difficult and trying condi-
tionS."
THE laboratories are grimy,
dark and crowded" she said, "and
the teaching schedule is heavy
and they don't have enough help"
/ Pointing out that equipment is
hard to get in eurrency-con-
trolled country like Finland, DR..
Weeks recalled seeing one sci
enlist trying to build an electron-
microscope.
Generally appraising the results
of the fellowship program, DR..
Weeks expressed the opinion that
the majority Of the women she
interviewed have gained more
recognition in their own countries
and respective fields, as q result
of their training here.
Among those with whom she
spoke were a Norwegian museum
curator, a Finnish woman doctor,
a French psychologist who con-
ducts her own school for normal
and subnormal children, and
social workers, chemists and re-
search scientists.

 ACCOUNTS BETTER

WASHINGTON, March 21-lR-- Gold holdings of the United States government have declined more than $37O,000,000 in the six months since the foreign currency deyaiu- ations last September.
 Officials here expressed belief to- day that the chief cause for the withdrawals has been improvement in the balance of international ac- counts. This, they said, is taking the pressure off foreign countries to send gold here to pay for goods and enabling them to rebuild reserves with gold from this country.

SEARCH FOR
 THREE MEN
 ON ICE FL0E

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, March 2l -R-Three men, reported trapped on a 150-foot ice floe, were believed being carried out to sea today by the racing current of broad, lengthy Cook Inlet.
 Military and private search planes were scheduled to renew their sweeps over the ice-choked passage at dawn. An air and ground hunt begun late Sunday has been fruit less.
 Police were told just before dusk Sunday that the trio had been spot ted on the floe near here. No per- sons are known to be missing, but all agencies in the area are heinz checked.
 Railway passengers gave strength to the report when they sighted what appeared to be three men yesterday morning huddled on a floe near Fire Island, where the Inlet turns west for a 200mile course to the North Pacific.
 Three khaki jackets were believed seen on the ice pack yesterday by an aerial observer, but propwash from the low-fiying plane blew them into open water before they could be scanned closely.
 A 10th Rescue heiicopter was dis patched to investigate the report late Sunday but it's search was cut short by nightfall.
 Searchlight beams from an Army portable battery placed along the shore swept the fast-moving rack throughout the night without suc- cess.
 Helicopters and private planes, flying as low as 30 feet off the tloes, continued the search yesterday and spotted occasional seals.

 At the same time, a report Of mems khaki jackets being sighted on the drifting ice was deflated. It. Donald Griffis, a helicopter pilot, expressed the belief they were just paper bags. He was the pilot who first took them for jackets.
 He said today that the objects might have been garbage bags Harry Silver, Anchorage newspaper man, also got close look from the air and said they were paper sacks.
 The report of three men on an ice floe in Cook Inlet was first made Sunday night. Treacherous tides move with speed and force in the long inlet.
 Another report of sighting men on the drifting ice at high tide was made last night by worker on a power vessel.

 "Evidence also shows that some claim local residence, verification of which cannot be undertaken until pursuit of evaders ends with close of the season, and upon dis covery, the evader is invariably out of the Territorys jurisdiction.
