of other Latin-American countries,

Accordlngto Ambassador Nson.
the batln-Amerlcans cannot conserve
of war between Mexico and the
United States. Naon pleaded the
preservation of Pan-Amerlcaniara.
He I'egards the Mexico-United States
crisis aa the teat of thoae principles
for which the powers of the. three
Americas have been striving for.
With all of the rest of the world
fighting, he contends that the two
continents must join their interests.
? diplomatically, financially, com
mercially and industrially.
Latin-American and administra
tion officials, .working in the inter
ests of Pan-Americanism, declare
that It is imperative that peace be
zialntalned now and a Way found to
enforce future peace. This brought
about the suggestion by the Pan
American peace force.
The Bolivian minister, Oalderon,
stated today that he would call on
Lansing at any time that seemed

was Informed, however, that Car

Want To Know If People
In Country Will Have to
'"Order" Certain Supplies
{Taken from Items sent in by Qne of our Country Correspondents)
This itemizer is interested in the "Buy, It At Home" movement.
Not a few of the people in the Surrounding country have been faked
by the mail order business, although there are times when things have
to be ordered. For example, a teacher gives a child a list of the
books needed at school. Upon going to the book store the father is
told that the supplementary books on the list are not carried in stock,
so teacher has to send an order, "off," wait a week or two before the
books come and Johnny is jnst that far behind in his studies. f
Just now the tanning season is on, but after carefully searching
the advertisement* we fail to find our local merchants advertising tin
cans, glass jars, rubber rings, solder and outfits for canning. Will
these have to be ordered f ifow will the people know where to buy
unless the merchants advertise f
It seems to me that if our merchants did as nnich advertising as
the mail order houses there would be little cause for complaining.
An oooasional Advertisement telling what the merchant has in stock
would bring results.

PEARSON WANTS TO KM
HOW ABOUT CHAUTAUQUA?
'* '?
Mana^fr of HWiu Association
Wr<t?? Secretary Regarding
the Matter.
My dear Mr. Goerch:
You will be Interested to know
that Elizabeth City signed and pre
sented their contract on the third
day. Henderson did the same on the
second day. Klnaton. Wilson. New
Barn, Burlington, all of the North
Carolina towns have signed before
I the close, except Washington.
Naturally 1 am puzzled to know
what went wrong atJ Washington.
We presented the same program aa
| elsewhere.
Please understand, Mr. Goerch, we
I are not disposed to urge unduly, and
If Washington does not want Chau
tauqua then we. will say no more
about it. "
From a financial point of view we
cannot afford tq return.- The single
admission sales were ^bly $108.40.
So we lost heavily. But our polloy
is not to give up any town for finan
cial reasons. We explain this to
towns like Elizabeth City where ouy
income is large, and it Is with their
aprporal that we continue Che plan.
We insist that towns that are go
ing to sign up do ao while we are
there. This iB leas expensive, and
what is more Important, it leaves a
better organization In the town. One I
of the chief difficulties with your or-|
ganlzation this year was that the
whole matter was not closed up and ;
announced to the audience, thus
committing the town and the com
mittee to work together. It may
seem to you an unimportant matter
but our ernerlence shows it to bo
very important.
There are a ?bw other towns that
want on the circuit. Wo have no
place now to give them. I have
agreed to give them an answer not
latef than July 10.
Please let me hear within a few
days what Washington proposes to
if you really want ub wo will be
happlhto return, but we will not an
noyy%#f'
With personal good wishes,
PAUL M. PEARSON.
