LETTER ' E1iioR
Dear Editor:

For over two years we have been trying to get sufficient water to carry on our crab canning operations. Last win ter due to lack of water we lost approximately five thous- and dollars worth of crabs at the prevailing fresh market price. These crabs could have been canned had water been available and we would have suffered no loss.
 At the present time there is another crab cannery being built on the city dock. His rent has been set at $65 a month for the first year to help a new industry get start ed. Our rent for over three years has been $100 a month for a much smaller warehouse. At the present time we are paying the city a total of Sl836 yearly in rentals, plus $900 in city taxes, plus 5000 in sak- mon and crab taxes to the ter ritory. They now have the ci- ty crew putting in water to this cannery and also putting new piling under the cannery at a cost of approximately s3,OOO,
 Last winter we were repeat edly denied water by the city water supt. because of an all- eged shortage. The capacity of the system has in no way been changed. Where is the water coming from this win- ter? What cannery will get the water during any shortage this winter?
 We are also a new enter prise with a yearly payroll of nearly $50, Why can't we get a deal like the Union Oil and the new crab cannery? Whom do we have to have in- terested in the cannery to get a so-called new industry" rating with it's attendant low CT rents and city aid? What is the policy of the ci- ty fathers? Is it to encourage new industry for the benefit of all, or do these new busl- nesses serve individual inter- | ests?
 Very truly yours, Pete Deveau

That is an assurance of authenticity.
The individual incomes of the
American people have doubled and
trebled during the last fifty years,
since 1900 But in 1850 were we
better off than in 1900? Did we live
better?
In 1900 the cash income of the
American farms averaged $3.50. The
farmers of that time had in addi-
ton to that amount of cash, the
greater part of the family food,
produced on the farm, and the fam
lily fuel from the wood lot of the
farm. The cash income of the av-
erase farm to-day is fully three
times that of 1900, and the farm
still provides the greater portion of
the family food. and much of the
family fuel.
In the matter of clothes, and
home furnishings and farm equip
ment, the cash receipts of today
will buy but little, if any more, than
did the cash receipts of 1900 The
farmer, while he receives more
cash, is not much better off than in
1900. More of them own more auto
mobiles. more farm equipment but
farm life and farm living is much
as it was half a century ago.
In 1900 the hourly wage of the
average industrial worker was l6
cents per hour, with an average
working week of SO hours in 1900,
and only Ais each week in 1850.

Mail call Is a language all its
own. Henry Roskan, an ex-
change student at the University
Of Cincinnati and a counselor
at the summer village near
Cincinnati, is the center Of all
eyes as he distributes letters
from home.
Yet, for four weeks, they lived
in harmony and laughter, learning
the language, quirks, games, de-
lights and angers of strangers, and
they emerged friends. They returned
to their native lands with a better
understanding of International rela-
tons and harmonies.
1t is hoped that this experiment,
financed solely by public support
from the citizens of Cincinnati, will
SNOWFALL all over the world, and
already similar villages are being
discussed for next summer in Ger
many, Sweden, England and other
countries.
How did it come about? DR.. Doris
Twitchell Allen, a psychologist and
member of the faculty at the Uni
Verslty of Cincinnati, started think
ing in terms of such village short
ly after World War H. Her own
enthusiasm fired others. Finally,
the camp site, former children's
summer camp, was acquired in 1850.
The children arrived June of this
year.
The children to attend were select
ed by committees from their own
cities. While scholarship was not
deciding factor, it turned out to be
important. Actually, qualities of
leadership and the ability to mix as
extroverts with others were primary
elements in final choices.
IN ADDITION to tn e children,
two adults accompanied each group.
The entire assembly from Europe
gathered in London and was flown
to this country. Those from Mexico
City came separately. The adults
lived in another camp and learned
how to set up villages in their own
countries.
While the program included out
door sports of every kind, there
were additional activities, such as
trips around Cincinnati. For stay
at-home times in the evenings
there was television. The Crosley
Division, Avco manufacturing cor
poration, installed sets in the dormi-
tories and lounge.
Television proved to be another
fascinating facet in this strange new
world of America. Only one or two
of the children from the foreign
countries had seen it before.
And in this study of harmony, 1t
was soon learnd that Hopalong
Cassidy and the Lone Ranger pro-
vide meeting ground in any Ian
guage.
Visitors at the village were quick
to pick up one granddaughter. It
is possible that this sound, brought
on by understanding fostered in
future generations by such villages
as that one in Cincinnati this sum-
mer and those being planned in the
future in other countries, can offer
realistic approach to curing some
of the worlds ills.

GOOD WILL EXPERIMENT
Cincinnati Citizens Sponsor
Summer Village for 81 Children

If there is universal language,
other than the love that poets muse
about, it certainly is the laughter
of children. No better demonstra-
ton Of that can be found than in
the story Of the first Children's In
ternational Summer Village, an ex-
pertinent Of four-week's duration
this summer in the hills near Gin
cinnati. Perhaps it will not be the
last.
The village was inhabited by 81
children-six each from Vienna,
Oslo, Stockholm, Newcastle on-Tyne,
Mexico City, Paris, Copenhagen and
Cincinnati. They ranged in age from
10 to IL years and they came from
various income groups.

For industrial workers the aver

Much of the increase has been

Doctor Wills came just the same
and set up his practice on Elm
Street. He was single SO he fixed
himself bachelors quarters in the
upstairs over his house. Old Mrs.
South who used to do for DR.. Boggs,
went over to the young docs now.
which made old doc madden than
ever.
TT SEEMED strange the way
young doc took on when Doc
Boggs finally passed on. Not many
even shed a tear at the funeral.
But young doctor Willis sat there
crying openly. 1t made everybody
think even more Of him than they
did before, for they knew that tho
old man had absolutely refused to
cooperate with the younger one and
that he lost no opportunity to run
him down to his patients.
What a wonderful husband Doc
tor Willis would make" was the
thought in the minds of more than
one mother of manageable aged
daughter.
The girls themselves busted about
inviting him to parties and dances.
There was open rivalry for his at
tention.
For while he dated this one
and that, playing no favorites.
One summer after he'd been
away on his vacation he came
back with wife. a girl from
his old home town in Ohio.
Jean, that was her name, had
such a nice way with her that she
soon made friends. When people
kept saying over and over that her
husband was the sweetest, most
tender hearted man in the whole
world, she sometimes looked a bit
surprised. Sure, she thought he was
great. That was one reason she
married him, but nevertheless she
felt bit puzzled at times.
And then she found out something
that nobody else knew. She kept
still and just smiled when they be-
gan to rave about her husband

Doctor Willis, on the other hand
was just pushing thirty. He was
alert, dependable and pleasant to

were most enthusiastic about him.
"Why," Mrs. Preston said, when
I called him for my Willie when he
had the measles, he worked like a
trooper. When Willie didn't do so
well at first he actually cried. a
doctor. What do you think of that?"

cried over my Martha, too. We both
cried. He's sweet. l just love him."
You see, at first Doc Boggs was
the only physician in town. People
called him just because he was
there. If they wanted somebody
else they'd have to get man in
Bloomdale, thirty miles away. So
everybody was mighty glad when
young Doctor Willis came to Linn
dale to see about locating there.
The business men and the
farmers gave him a lot Of en-
couragement. The young mar
ried women who were expect

fact, the only person who OPP
posed him in any way was old
Doc Boggs.
