A WORD TO THE WISE
« “Other media are important, but the news
paper is the final vital link between the pro
ducer and the consumer that must be, in the
ff#My nature of things, an essential part of any
prell balanced program”, so states H. T. Ewald,
president of the Campbell-Ewald Advertising
(Agency in a letter this week to the publishers
jof the Wallace Enterprise.
This assertion by the head of one of the
^country's greatest advertising agencies needs
fio elaboration. But its short, factual state
7 taunt should serve to acquaint local merchants
{with the possibilities available when advertis
|ng ifi the Wallace Enterprise.
I NEUTRALITY LAW PROBLEMS
| 'Apparently, thje question of neutrality is
proving to be a bigger problem than most Con
gressmen thought it was when Congress un
Bertook to restate a policy to keep the United
IStates out of future wars.
At one time, it seemed possible for certain
■Bvocates of a policy of self-denial in the in
terest of peace, to pass legislation providing
for an embargo on the export of war material
|to belligerents in excess of normal peace time
(volume, and to permit trade with belligerents
land travel in war zones at private risk only.
However, before the legislation could be
passed, there arose a mighty conflict of voices
Bo that any change in present legislation in
cited prolonged debate. With this mind it
jwas generally agreed to extend the present
law with amendments to exempt Latin-Ameri
can countries when fighting non-American
(powers and to forbid credits to foreign belli
gerents.
a - ■ — ■ ■
prive any person of life, liberty, or property
without due process of law, which the Court
interprets as forbidding the. States to restrict
rights which Congress itself may not violate.
The Supreme Court, in the words-of Justice
Sutherland, who wrote the opinion, called the
Louisiana law "a deliberate and calculated de
vice in. the guise of a tax to limit the circula
tion of information to which the public is en
titled by virtue of its constitutional guaran
tees.”
PENALIZING ADVERTISING
It is somewhat interesting to contemplate
the recent decision of the Supreme Court up
holding a New York milk law which permitted
dealers who do not advertise to charge a low
er price.
It seems that the State of New York, in fix
ing the price of milk, provided that non-adver
tising dealers might sell to stores at one cent
a quart less than the distributors of well
known brands, and the contention is made
that any other decision would upset the es
tablished custom and drive non-advertisers
from business.
Apparently, the Supreme Court recognizes
the power of advertising to attract business.
Seemingly, the advantage thus secured by ad
vertisers can only be equaled when non-ad
vertising milk producers are permitted to un
dersell advertisers a cent a quart.

TACKLING A PROBLEM
CHECKS FOR FARMERS
RURAL ELECTRIFICATION
The AAA and the soil conservation program
attempt to meet the same situation. With ag
ricultural production far in excess of domestic
markets and with no prospects for a foreign
market for the surpluses produced, the Govern
ment seeks to assist farmers in adjusting their
output to effective demand and by benefits to
assure them a just proposition of the national
income.
Admittedly, something like 30,000,000 acres
of land are being planted each year in excess
of what is necessary to provide for reasonable
needs. Under the AAA program the Govern
ment was compelled to move toward market
control because, when crops became profitable,
farmers were inclined to increase acreage. This
would create new surpluses to depress prices,
which would cut down farm income. The deci
sion of the Supreme Court precludes the con
trol of markets and leaves the same problem
of preventing unwieldly surpluses.
The soil conservation plan will pay farm
ers to plant grass, alfalfa or trees on land for
merly planted in wheat, cotton, or corn. This
would of course, decrease production, but the
danger still exists that improved prices would
cause farmers to increase yields either by in
tensive cultivation or the use of additional
land. Apparently, without some definite crop
control, the Secretary of Agriculture is not
far wrong when he insists that foreign mar
kets must be recaptured and that these can be
secured only if, and when this country is ready
to buy a billion dollars or more additional for
eign merchandise every year.
The money recently made available by Con
gress could not be paid out beforehand on ac
count of the decision of the Supreme Court
which declared the AAA unconstitutional on
January 6th. Funds are also provided to dis
charge moral obligations to producers who had
complied with the requirements of the 1936
programs although not actually entering into
contracts prior to the decision. Funds are also
available to make cotton price adjustments to
producers on the amount of their Bankhead al
lotment, giving them the difference between the
price at ten designated markets and twelve
cents on the day of sale but not to exceed two
cents a pound.
A
A permanent Rural Electrification Adminis
tration is provided for in a bill introduced by
Senator Norris of Nebraska. The measure sets
aside $100,000,000 a year for ten years, to be
loaned to states, municipalities or non-profit
organisations to build generating plants and
distribution lines in areas without power.
Morris L. Cooke, Administrator of the Rural
Electrification Administration, operating on an
emergency basis, reports loans of $4,000,000
for the construction of nearly 4,000 miles of
distribution lines, Mr. Cooke inveighs against
the policy of the utility companies “who skim
off the cream of the business”, tints preclud
ing extension of service to nearly ninety per
