THE ALLEGHANY TIMES Published Every Thursday $1.50 Per Year Entered as second-class matter at the Post Office at Sparta, N. C. D. C. SHORES, Editor TODAY and 10M9» ; PARKER I flDOCBPJDOEl WASHINGTON . . one industry I was in Washington for a few days recently, and what impressel me most was the utter ignorance of the people of Washington about what is going on the rest of the world. Building industry is booming, con structing new Government buildings. Government employees are working every day. yelping mildly about a small reduction in salaries. Streets are crowded with cars, driven with the utmost recklessness and most in efficient traffic regulations. Stores are doing as good business as ever, at prices much higher than in New York. Rents are almost up to the highest level. Washington has but one industry, the Government of the United States. It is so detached from the rest of the country that it might as well be in some other nation. It is difficult for the men who run the government to realize how bad conditions are else where, when they see evidence all around them of great prosperity. I have long believed that it was a serious mistake to locate the seat of government away from the center of business and industrial activity. If I could do it. I would move the Capi tol and the White House to Chicago which is where they ought to be if they are really to represent the American people effectively. IjA N I) .... safest investment In spite of the fact that many owners of real estate have suffered great losses in the past few years, land remains the safest, soundest in vestment in the long run. The sup ply is limited, for one thing. In creasing population means increas ing demand for land. Every baby born on Manhattan Island increases the value of the Woolworth building. The time to buy land is now. Dol lars'are high now; they will be much cheaper shortly. Land is cheap now; it will be much higher before long. The time' to buy anything is when everybody else wants to sell. If you own land, hold on to it; if you have dollars, buy land with them for safety! Don't speculate in land! Pay for it and hold it. Don't speculate in anything oh which you canlt always reali.. something at a moment's no tice. You can't move land around; you must wait until someone wants that piece at that spot. So buy land intelligently, in the path of the movement of population. Re gard it as an investment for your children rather than as a way to make yourself rich over night. The world’s greatest and most en during fortunes have been made by buying land and holding on to it.
