EDITORIAL
WELCOME, SIXTEENERS
To all the surviving sixteeners and their friends who will
trek back to Mount Joy the scene of their childhood days—
we welcome you.
Our town and its people extend our heartiest greetings and
sincerely ‘hope you have a most enjoyable fifty-first reunion
here on Saturday.
May all of you survive many more years to return and
celebrate these events annually.

106,000 dead and 9,900,000 injured is the accident toll for
these United States last year. That is exactly double the
casualty list of the World War.
As a comparison the calculable costs of these accidents
was $3,600,000,000, which was enough money to build seven-
ty-five Empire State buildings.
Broadcasting such information should at icast make some
people careful but they should worry. The traffic fatalities
were 4 per cent. higher in 1937 than during 1936.
How to reduce this annual slaughter of human beings is
certainly a problem.
ADVERTISEMENTS SERVE ALL
The dual utility of newspaper advertisements—the alert
business man is advertising in the newspapers as never be-
fore, and the wide-awake shopper, in many cases, relies
wholly upon the ads in the press as a shopping guide—was
demonstrated during the late economic unpleasantness when
penny-saving was compulsory.
Now that money is becoming more plentiful, and business
is discovering that public responsiveness to advertising of
better grade merchandising is growing, the newspaper has
become a shopping aid to the busy buyer unapproached by
any medium in the past. —
Not only are large city mercantile establishments and na-
tional advertisers using newspaper space more generously
than ever—as demonstrated in the weekly increase of adver-
tising linage in the big city newspapers in comparison with
a year ago—but the small businessman has also discovered
the unique indispensability of getting his message to his
prospective customers through the columns of the newspa-
per. Neighborhood stores, which in many cases had never
been known to advertise, are telling the people they seek to
serve why it will pay them to deal around the corner. Again
the newspaper is the medium most often used.
If it were not for the myriad-times demonstrated fact that
both the advertiser and the consumer are benefited im-
measurably, newspaper advertising would now be as dead
as the dodo. But emergence from the depression finds it
universally regarded as the one indispensable adjunct to
good buying and good selling.
PINK LEMONADE POOR SUBSTITUTE
The old news rule that it isn’t “news” if a dog bites a man,
but that it is “news” if a “man bites a dog,” might be added
to as follows:
It is news when municipalities refuse to be seduced by “45
per cent cash gifts” from government bureaus to put private
enterprise out of business.
Washington press releases broadcast it far and wide when
municipalities fall for federal gifts and take their first step
toward socialism, but no Washington press bureau com-
mends a city for refusing to take such gifts, and thereby save
some taxpaying private enterprise from destruction, and the
community from useless debt and increased taxation.
San Jose, California, should have been in the
but it wasn’t. By a vote of some 14,000 to 2,500, that city
voted down municipal ownership of its water system in fa-
headlines,
vor of continued private operation under public regulation.
In addition, two veteran members of the city council who
sponsored the municipal ownership project at a cost of $5.-
520,000 in bonds, were overwhelmingly defeated. This is
real old-fashioned anti-socialistic news from a typical Amer-
iean city of 75,000 people.
Immediately following the election, the San Jose city coun-
cil was offered $800,000 of “free” government money to
dredge a useless harbor out of the marsh lands at the south
tip of San Francisco Bay. The city councilmen, remember-
ing the election, decided that if the acceptance of the “free”
money meant another local bond issue, they wanted none of
it.
Too often the citizens of our communities are blinded by
the lure of “free” government money and “alluring” prom-
ises. But when the real facts are stripped bare of political
camouflage as was done in San Jose, the citizens will go to
the polls and sign a new declaration of independence.
Let us hope that San Jose has shown some other com- |
