Real economy in clothes means
to spend enough to guarantee
real genuine quality.
Men’s clothes will be higher in
price before they are cheaper.
The shortage of wool, the de-

all grades of wool, and the labor

for any erratic change in price

signed by Edwin B. Scholl appear-
ed in yesterday’s issue of the Call-
er. We desire to make it gener-
ally known that, while we believe
that the German nation was in-
strumental in launching the war
in Europe, we absolutely repudi-
ate the sentiments of the Scholl
letter, which contained ungener-
ous statements, many of which
were not provable. The Caller
has the most profound respect
for the German people, their insti-
tutions and methods of social .con-
duct. No more stalwart race ex-
ists, nor any that is characterized
by greater integrity.”

The reading public will therefore
understand why the Big “K” Organ
declines to publish the greatest news
item of this century—the surrender of
the kaiser and his gang and the end-
ing of the bloodiest war of all time.

Notwithstanding the bitter fight
that was made on Senator Archie
Parr of the Corpus Christi senatorial
district by every “yoke” democrat in
Texas from Gov. Hobby and Chairman
Wolfe down, even after the courts
of last resort had declared him to be
the regular nominee the final returns
show that Parr beat Glasscock by be-
tween 500 and 600 votes in spite of
the claims spread broadcast over the
State to the contrary.
Owing to the fact that all demo-
cratic precedent was destroyed when
Governor Hobby and Chairman Wolfe
Stepped down from their exalted posi-
tions and advised the democrats to
scratch the regular nominee of the
democratic party and the additional
fact that the State, through the suc-
cess of Glasscock would have entered
into an era of the worst machine con-
trolled politics in the history of the
State, an era in which party pledges
would have been no more than “mere
Scraps of paper” and the honor of
men would be destroyed, The Tribune
reproduces the following very inter-
esting editorial from the Corpus
Christi Times in its comment on the
results of the election.
The Tribune is not interested in the
so-called democracy of Texas as it ex-
today, but it is interested in
sou are-dealing and the truth, and for
that reason gives the true situation in
the- Corpus district as it actually ex-
ists. that just men can form right con-
clusions. No one cares a rap for the
conclusions of any other kind of a
hran. anyway.
meetings December 2 to 7: commun-
ity public meetings will be held over
Texas on December 3, preparation for
these meetings being worked out at
the State conference. Miscellaneous
county meeting will also be held dur-
ing the week of December 2 to 7.
Womn’s organization meetings will be
held in Texas on Wednesday. Decem-

school exercises will be held on Fri-
da v, December 6.
The purpose of the entire campaign
is to brin gforcibly before the entire
food administration organization and
the genera! public, the change of the
food administration activities from a
war basis to a world relief basis.

WHAT IS IT?
Stenotypy is written on the Stenotype—the fastest writing machine in
the world. Stenotypy is the machine way in shorthand—the fastest,
easiest and best wav for every boy or girl who wishes to become a
high-paid secretary. It is the way to bigger, better opportunities and
to a larger salary from the start.

The Big “K” Organ in the face of
the real bona fide reports in its pos-
session still publishes that Glasscock
received a greater number of votes in
the election than Senator Parr. An
honest newspaper publishes the truth
when it knows it.. To do otherwise is
a rank imposition on the public. Some
people are still possessed of sufficient
venom and spleen and prejudice to
believe as true statements appearing
in the Big “K” Organ. Reasonable,
fair-minded people, are less credu-
lous. The Big “K” Organ cavorted
around and continued to tell its read-
ers that Glasscock carried the district

program which will be general over
the United States has been worked
out by Mr. Hoover prior to his de-

of the week is the conference of Texas

conference will be held in the ball

voters in Zapata were
blue Americans; when Parr

carried Nueces, the Big “K” Organ
said the voters in Webb are illiterate,
machine-controlled Mexicans, but the
voters in Nueces, are white men.
Since Parr has carried Nueces
Glasscock carried Webb the Big I
Organ has changed front and says the
voters in Webb are white men and
those in Nueces illiterate machine-
controlled Mexicans. When the slush
. fund got in its good work and the
Mexican patriot lined up for Glass-
cock he became a splendid citizen
Glasscock has lost. The majority is
for Parr. The will of the people has
been determined as fixed by law. Wil
Glasscock and his supporters respect
the will of the majority, or will they
try to take the election by force. Come
clean, and admit defeat and if you
still want the senatorship and want it
bad enough, to steal it, trv that. Get
