ENJOYS FRANKLIN TIMES New York, Nov. 19. ? If you were to visit Burrelle's Press Clipping Bureau in downtown Manhattan, you'd find a hundred young girls doing nothing but reading newspapers and maga zines. The offices, which overlook the Hudson River, are as quiet ( as a library reading room, and all you see are newspapers stack- I ed in piles ready to be read and : clipped. Harold Wynne, a young , college graduate, who is the pres- I ident of tfiis unusual organization j says: "Our girls enjoy reading j the FRANKLIN TIMES, Louis- j burg. N. C., because it contains j so many interesting items about' our clients." Burrelle's Press Cipping Bu- j reau was started back in 1888 w it'll two readers and a handful j of papers. Frank Burrelle. the 1 originator of the clipping bureau j idea and founder of Burrelle's, } overheard one man ask another il he had seen the article in the morning paper which mentioned his name. From this conversa tion began an organization which j today has branch offices all over ! the world and spends more than j $40,000 a year for newspaper and 1 magazine subscriptions. j The loss of European markets | as a result of t'he war cut ex ports of American food products to $15,279,000 in September as ! compared with $28, 693. 000 in the J same month a year ago. The 1940-41 world's cotton [ crop is placed tentatively at 30. 500,000 bales as compared with ! 28,900.000 last season, reports i the U. S. Department of Agricul ture.

Sloan, Jr., Chairman of General Motor#, set* forum them*, "Mobilizing America's Economic Strength," at luncheon given by him for 500 of the country's leaders to hear an expert discussion of this important phase of the national defense program. Participating In the forum (left to right) were: Paul G. Hoffman, president of Studebaker Corporation; C. F. Kettering, of General Motors research fame; George V. Denny, Jr. (standing), Town Meeting of the Air, who served as moderator; Mr. Sloan; Or. Harold G. Moulton, president of Brookings Institution, and Dr. 8umner H. Slichter, Harvard University economist. With it* vast untapped resources of men and materials America has an economic potential of sufficient reserve power to take the defense program in 1U stride and emerge stronger and greater than ever be fore in its history. This was the ringing challenge Issued recently to 500 of the na tion's leading industrialists and business men in New York at a forum discussion of the subject "Mobilizing America's Economic Strength." As guests of Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., Chairman of General Motori, the luncheon gathering heard two prominent economists, an Industri alist and a research engineer. Join In urging industry not to curtail unnecessarily the normal flow of goods and services in this period of emergency but to mobilize Its strength on all fronts. A strong right arm and a rugged I constitution to back it up was the prescription recommended by these ! authorities. Defense has first call on the country's resources, they said, but America has sufficient re serves of power to build high its defense ramparts without having to neglect those foundations of normal productivity which underlie both the ramparts and the way of life behind them.
