P Hep is a vast land whose pro-
ducts we must have, and to whose
people we must sell our goods; it is
a land in which 200,000 of our citi-
zens in all walks of life have in-
vested some $1,700,000,000.
At the moment, depreciated values
are the bugbear of Latin America
and a barrier to mutually profitable
trading between our country and its
southern neighbors. But values will
come back and Latin America will
perhaps be the greatest single out-
let for our goods and the indirect
source of livelihood for hundreds of
our workers. It is a land worth un-
derstanding and watching. Closer
inter-American relations will help
mold the destinies, not only of the
Western Hemisphere, but of the en-
tire world.—Industrial News Review.
Yes, Latin America—the great un-
developed regions of the Western
Continent which lie to the south of
ns—is the one part of the earth in
which we of the United States ought
to be most interested. But most of
us, even here in Texas which is next
door neighbor to a great Latin
country, know nothing and care
nothing about our neighbors to the
south. We forget that in Mexico
there is a great university, center
of the world's rich culture and
knowledge, older than our own Har-
vard and Yale. And such universi-
ties are found in two or three of
the South American republics. The
writer met a very scholarly and lib-
eral-minded citizen of Chile on one
occasion. He was an author, a man
of large business affairs and of a
broad, cultured and itblerant world
outlook. Confidentially this distin-
guished Chilean told us that the av-
erage American whom Chileans gdt
to meet within their own country Is
erode and rude of manners, incon-
siderate and boorish. From things,
that we had read and heard from
other sources, we were not disposed
to deny the Chilean’s statement. The
first point is that Americans do not
understand—and they certainly do
not appreciate—the culture and fine
traditions of the Latin people; the
next point is that instead of travel-
ing in Europe those of us who “go
abroad” would do ourselves and our

the country man?
In the city you have got tp pay
your water bill once a month— in
the country you get that free; in
the city, winter gas bills keep your
purse drhined to the very bottom
—in the country you can burn hick-
ory back logs and pine knots; and,
oh boy, wbat a comfortable fire they
do make—and they can be obtained

K abroad
by your labor when that
wouldn’t otherwise be productive. In
the city you have either got to work
and keep on working every day, or
you lose out—and get thrower! out
of your house, if you are a renter.
In the country it’s not that way—
especially if you own your home, or
if you are a dependable and satis-
fied tenant.
Most city people have to buy ev-
ery particle of food they use—and
they buy from day to day, or at
least once per week—never have a
store of provisions ahead. In the
country (if you have been wise and i
thrifty of your time in food produc
tion and conservation from your
garden, orchard and truck patch)
you have got a year's supply stored
back in your pantry. We had the
pleasure a few days ago of getting
a peep into the pantry of a W. H. D.
dub member up at Mt. Sylvan—ab-
solutely everything for the table
except sugar, coffee and flour, milk
butter and eggs. There were two
fine sleek dairy cows in the pasture,
a bamlot full of 'fine laying hens
several big fat hogs in the pen —
and the man of the house was down
in the field making! up 600 gallons of
syrup to take the place of sugar, If
need .be. So there wasn’t a thing
lacking. The richest man in the city
hasn’t got a store of food equal to
the Stocks of food at that home—
and mighty few town men would
ive moryy enough to buy an equal
re ofWuch foods at one time.

eled in the lands of Latin America
who are our neighbors and whose re-
sources and development industrially
we might share—and the third point
is that the schools of this country
ought to give larger place to the
Spanish and Portuguese languages
and to South and Central American
social, poetical and industrial his-
tory. Why spend so much time and
mental energy studying the dead
civilizations of the world when so
fine and rich a field for study and
culture lies right at our door? :p

The owner of a country printing
establishment in Ohio, who is also
the publisher of two weekly news-
papers with a combined circulation
of 3,000, recently pointed out the
dire effect of government in business
upon his trade. For example, he
said:
“This competition is keenly felt
by printers. We use our newspa-
pers to help the government in
many ways. The public has been
educated to the * income tax and
all other forms of taxation
through the newspapers without
cost to the government. Yet in our
two offices, we lose from $600 to
$800 annually because the govern-
ment prints return cards on
stamped envelopes at prices that
cannot be touched by any printer.’’
, This isolated instance, the like of
which is legion, throws into bold re-
lief the.picture of private industry
maintaining the government by tax-
ation as its own competitor. Gov-
ernment printing office, as well as
government anything else, of course
pays no taxes. It creates taxes for
others to pay.—Public Service Mag-
azine.

has many big jobs to tackle up there
at Washington. But we hope he is
disposed to stop the Government
from doing so many things that
ain’t government, nor “kin to gov-
ernment.” That’s why the people are
crushed with, taxes. We want our
Congressman to vote like dropping
an anvil from an airship a mile high
against any more Muscle Shoals,
and Hoover Dams, and cement plants
and restaurants and “army stores in
fli»n communities” and all sich
