A STEP FORWARD
What better could have been
done in Mount Joy than to organize
a Building and Loan Association?
That is something our town needed
twenty-five years ago and at last it
will be a reality.
Thru it people will be given an
opportunity to start a small savings
account. As soon as they have
saved a few hundred dollars, they
have the “‘where-with-all” toward
the purchase of a home. They can
pay that home in the same manner
as they at present pay rent and in
eight or ten years they own that|
home,
When a man becomes a property
owner he invariably remains a per- |
manent resident of that town.
Property owners are as a rule, the |
better class of workmen as they try
to give their employer their best.
They boost their town instead of
knocking it. Show me a town in
which the majority of the people
own their homes and you’ve got a
growing, thrifty industrious com-
munity.

TRIPARTITE INTEREST IN
TARIFF
Agitators have claimed there is a
confiict of interests between capital,
labor and the tariff. The mythical
barrier between capital and labor
has been exploded, The public now
realizes that neither labor nor cap-
ital can exist alone.
' But there is still a tendency to
pit the farmer against the manufac-
turer on the tariff question, when
the farmer’s best market is labor-
ing men in industries.
Many of our farm erops and in-
dustries could not exist under our
present wage and hour system in
competition with cheap labor for-
eign competition, without tariff pro-
tection equalizing prices.
For instance, one little beet sug-
ar company in Utah paid $2,250,-
000 for labor and nearly $4,000,-
000 to the farmers for sugar
beets, in 1927.
Without a reasonable sugar tar-
iff this beet sugar factory would
not have existed with resulting hen-
efit to labor and agriculture. With-
out this domestic supply of sugar,
our nation would be wholly at the
mercy of foreign producers.
The tariff is a business and not a
political issue. It should be treated
as such in considering best interests
of American labor, agriculture and
manufacturing.
IF YOU WON'T SIGN,
DON’T SAY IT
; A great many of us have acquir-
ed the unfortunate faculty of talk-
ing too much. We purport to know
too much about the other fellow
and his personal business affairs.
‘Without making sure of our facts
we proceed to collect and pass out
gossip. A great many persons, as
soon as they see or hear of some-
thing a little suspicious, proceed to
make it the shaky foundation for
their conversation.
One of the very best methods to
jursue in ing to break ourselves
this Be habit of peddling
idle gossip is to adopt and live up
to the following rule: ~
Whenever you are Zempted_ to

WORLD’S GREATEST ROAD
BUILDING PROGRAM
Thomas H. MacDonald, Chief of |
United States Bureau of Public
Roads, addressing Sixth Annual As-
phalt Paving Conference, emphasiz-
ed need for good roads and said:
“The program of this nation in
building highways has had no par-
allel in all past history. The cumu-
lative loss to nation now from inad-
equate highways is prohibitive.”
He then went on to show that
there are over

necessity for improving as rapidly
as possible the great road mileages
that are necessary to connect up
our rural districts. This will ne-
cessitate doing away with much
road following section lines,
substituting roads of shorter
tances and better surfaces between |
important points.
He pointed out the tremendous |
mileage of roads initially improved
with rock and gravel which can be!
surfaced with a waterproof cover- |
ing of asphaltic character, thereby
salvaging old road investments and
providing thousands of miles of
new hard-surfaced highways suitab- |
