• And like the other great time savers, advertisements save
rmney and energy, as well. The reading of them is a genuine
iuman economy.
Limited trains, automatic telephones, special editions of
newspapers, sixty-miles-an-hour automobiles, airplanes still fas-
ter—we have these things in answer to our demand for speed.
And an equally important time saver in the lives of people today
is advertising. Just as surely as any other modern service, the
advertisements bridge hours and days for people who have wants
to be filled.

items that do not carry even a
smattering of interest to the
ordinary reader.
When newspapers start cul-
tivating their fields intensively
they will find the raw material
in abundance for their news
columns right in their own
field. Greater newspaper read- between the great oil refining
er interest can be acquired
most economically and most ef-
fectively by more and better
news copy. Ninety-nine times Whereas the interests of the
out of a hundred the most in- nation call for a first-class con-
teresting people in the world
bo the newspaper reader are
the people these readers know.

papers must come back to in
order to keep the newspaper as
an institution of inestimable
value and consuming interest
to every family of the com-
munity.

Readers of advertisements are the same people who demand
he utmost efficiency in communication, in business, in their
laxly life. They know that a few minutes’ reading of the ad-
vertisements will tell them more about products, values and the
ntelligent spending of their money than they could discover in
lays by ajny other method.

WHO OWNS THE AIR?
Practically everybody in the United States wants to get
something off his chest through his own radio station. At least,
it seems that way to the Federal Radio Commission. In spite of
the Commission’s repeated insistence that “the broadcasting
band is crammed full,” almost 200 applications for new stations
are stacked up awaiting action.
If sounds transmitted through air could be’ regulated at chan-
nel crossings as our motor traffic is controlled, all would be well
for 200 and many more applicants. But the congestion is al-
ready so bad that reduction of the number of stations now oper-
ating has been advocated as a necessary means of eliminating in-
terferences and “cross talk.”
This combination of few channels and numerous applications
has set up a turmoil of claims and counter-claims. Pioneers and
amateurs in broadcasting register strong protest against being
deprived of a field for experiment. Firmly entrenched chain
systems point to “superior service” in order to hold what they
have. Nation-wide organizations of every kind demand the
aethereal voice that tells the world. And on the door of the
Federal Trade Commission'falls the constant knocking of all
these supplicants and protestants.
A formal hearing is granted each applicant for a radio sta-
tion. Testimony must be presented showing that the desired
station is in the public’s interest, convenience and necessity, and
that it will not exceed the quota set up for each state and zone.

LA PRENSA OBJECTS
Since the close of the world war, America’s diplomatic and
business relations with the various nations of South America
have been increasingly friendly. One exception mars the gen-
eral rule, the reluctance with which Argentina accepts the cor-
dial advances of the United States government. In 1917 the
southermost Latin republic maintained a friendly neutrality
with Germany in contrast with America and other countries of
the new world. And a certain distant coolness has prevailed ev~
jr since.
La Prensa, the greatest daily of the Argentine Republic and
of all Spanish-speaking America, has decided that this splendid
isolation is a bad thing both for Argentina and the United States.
Conscious of the fact that the venerable Hipolito Irigoyen has lit-
tle friendly feeling for America, the Buenos Aires paper protests
the Argentine president’s stand. For sixteen months now that
nation has not been represented in the United States by an am-
bassador, the diplomatic relations handled by subordinate of-
ficials. In the meantime, American commerce with Argentina
has grown greatly, American capital is flowing into the markets
of the southern republic. Yet the business contacts of the two
nations are handicapped by lack of cordiality between Washing-
ton and Buenos Aires.
The United States is ready and willing to remedy this lam-
entable situation. La Prensa does not blame this country for
ihe misunderstanding, but insists that “the Argentine govern-
ment alone maintains its displeasing attitude, and its neglect of
Its diplomatic missions abroad characterizes the present policy,
if it can be called a policy, of the Argentine foreign office.
Washington, of course, manages to ignore the matter as
much as possible, realizing that the people of the South Ameri-
can republic are not entirely responsible for the policies dictated
by President Irigoyen. But La Prensa sees an unhappy lack of
harmony and properly objects. America and Argentina have
been friends for a hundred years. No temporary misunder-
standing can mar that, record of a century.—Houston Chronicle.

From a Minnesota community comes a story that serves to
^arm the heart. It tells how a farmer became illl just about
the time for gathering the crops, and was about to lose the fruit
of all his year’s labor, but the neighbors heard about his illness,
and they came and did the work for him, refusing to accept a
cent of pay.
Then, for four long months, while the farmer lay on his sick-
bed, some one of his neighbors made it a point to call daily,
bringing a little token of their regard—a glass of jelly, or a book
or other small gift to cheer and encourage him.
Most of us remember similar happenings of our childhood
days back in the country, but somehow, in the cities, where we
are crowded together so closely, we forget the old-fashioned
neighborliness that used to be so good and so helpful. Too
many love humanity, while forgetting all about folks.-—Shreve-
port Times.
James R. Rhodes, Publisher
of the Newton, Iowa, Daily
News, says:
THAT the time is coming in
the not distant future when
newspapers must turn their at-
tention from news features,
comics and. foreign or outside
news matter to the job of culti-
vating their local fields inten-
sively. There was a time not
many years ago when the
newspapers had reporters
meeting all the trains that
stopped in the old home town
to take on passengers and un-
load news items in the shape of
folks coming to the city. Dur-
ing the same period the sale of
an automobile was a news item
—but not now. When ordin-
ary folks were ill, the home
town newspaper carried an
item telling what the malady
was, how the patient was doing
and possibly a little editorial
word of hopefulness or bit of
praise for the sick person—but
not now. When twenty-five or
thirty relatives assembled to-
gether for a big Sunday dinner,
the event was good was a half
column in the home town news-
paper the following day—but
not now.
But things have changed in
present day newspapering. The
newspapers have no reporters
at the railroad depots, at the
bus stations or at the airports.
The comings and goings of
folks, especially the ordinary
“peepul” do not constitute the
present day news. -The aver-
age metropolitan daily news-
paper carries a personal news
column of about six to ten per-
sonals every day— possibly
less, and the smaller dailies are
patterned after their more
powerful neighbors.
Instead of the intensely in-
teresting news items about the
home community people, we
find all the daily newspapers
gone mad with features of one
kind and another, pages upon
pages of comics, page upon
page of news pictures illustrat-
ing (for the most part) news
nection of these important in- cloudiness tonight and Wednes-
dustrial centers in times of {day. Wrest m ~~
peace as well as in times of 5cloudy with showers in the
war ;
Therefore resolved: That
