I Alcorn Says New Credit Restrictions
May Slow Down Wheels of Industry
Li..
Editor’s note: Achin Al-
corn, philosopher on his
Johnson grass farm on Sul-
phur is taking the wrong at-
titude toward the necessary
credit restrictions the gov-
ernment has established, but
you can’t tell him that.
Deer Editar: I found a copy
«f your paper out here yesterday
-which was only about a month
old, if you ain't seen a paper yet
it's still as newsy as it was the
day it was printed, and noticed an
ad in it offerin new cook stoves
for nothing down and $5 a month,
and since the terms appealed to
me considerably, as there ain’t
nothing that will build up pur-
chasin power like being able to
buy without puttin out any mon-
ey, I went into town and tried
to buy it.
But the store told me all that
was changed, said the govern-
ment has clamped down on credit
restrictions and requires as much
as a third down, with a shorter
time to pay the balance in, no
more of this dollar a week the
rest of your life.
Now, the government may
j know what it’s doin, but it seems
| to me this is a blow at the very
foundation of our economic struc-
ture.
If the government is gonna say
| you can’t buy a stove or a refrig-

erator or a car or a radio until
you can afford it, this country is
ruined. Won’t be enough stoves
or refrigerators or cars or radios
sold to keep half the people now
workin on such stuff in job's.
As I understand it, our whole
economy is based on the idea
there ain’t no point in waitin un-
til you can afford something be-
fore you buy it. Lack of money
ain’t been no bar to doin busi-
ness, and if for example auto-
mobiles was limited to just the
people who could afford em,
horses and buggies would still be
popular. Installment buyin was
a better invention for the auto-
mobile industry than the self-
starter or pneumatic tires. There
are some folks who still cling to
the idea a man ain’t entitled to
something till he can afford it,
but they are a small minority
who has been left behind in the
sweep of progress.
If the government is out to
ruin business, especially the kind
I do, settin up such old-fashion-
ed plans is the sure way to do it.
I ain’t lived within my income
for years, don’t know many folks
who have either, and we ain’t
about to start now. Let’s get this
law repealed and keep the wheels
of industry turnin and business
boomin.

Football Chatter
By the Editor
Woe is this editor—all three of
his football teams at Deport, Bo-
gata and Talco lost their games
last Friday night: Deport vs.
Pewitt, 21 to 20; Bogata vs. Dain-
gerfield, 12 to 0; Talco vs. Hughes
Springs, 6 to 6, and the game
awarded H. S. on penetrations.
Talco and Deport have both
won two of the three games they
have played: Talco 8, Avinger 6;
Talco 25, Winnsboro 0; Deport 51,
Roxton 0; Deport 21, Goodland 7.
Bogata has not hit the win col-
umn yet, losing to Paris B 6 to 0
and to James Bowie by the same
score. But the season is young
yet.
Mrs. Nora Everhart of Ft.| “’Mrs. Mattie Banka ot
4 .
Worth, spent the week end at her I port, is a medical patient at the
home at Bogata. I Grant Hospital in Deport.
Hospital in Deport.
Talco has won one and lost one
conference game. The Trojans
journey to Mt. Pleasant next FYi-
day night for a non-conference
game. Deport goes to Dainger-
field for a conference affair and
Avinger comes to Bogata for a
conference tilt. Soon we will be
able to have some idea of the rel-
ative strength of teams in Con-
ference 22-B.
The editor had a lot of fun at j
the Deport-Pewitt game. The ■
bleachers were crowded; he was |
forced to take a seat alongside I
the Pewitt rooting squad and j
wished for cotton to stuff into
his ears. He matched wits with |
those Pewitt boys and girls and
had a great time until Pewitt |
made its last touchdown to tie i
the score and then converted to
win. Did they get revenge! j
We want to warn Bogata and
Talco about Waylon Buchanon,
Pewitt fullback. Their team is
built around him. He is a big
man, a hard driver and not easy
to stop. •
Clarksville defeated the Good-
land Indians Friday night 33 to
19. A week previous Deport
took the Indians’ scalps 21 to 7.
In percentage the Deport score
has a slight advantage.
