Sentin . ;• oat • - feeurrenee of an ancient fallacy. That fallacy is * ' -t • r< is a- iT. inn teed a return of six per cent on ti. r in* *• i.cnt. by tbe government, and that if they are unable to earn it. tb* d licit i» made up from the public treasurv. Fortunately for tbe treasury, which has enough diffi Value In Advertising PROVED BY EXPERIENCE Does it pay to advertise in dull times? Is it I of value to put out money for publicity when busi nee is slow and cash scarce? Gilbert T. Hodges, president of the Advertis ing Federation of America- gives an emphatic af firmative of both questions. Mr. Hodges has made a study of the 17 year records of 120 corporations. Sixty of these con | cems failed to maintain their advertising programs, i The other 60 increased their advertising expense on j an average of 16 oer cent annually, regardless of | general business recessions' Of the concerns that maintain an increased advertising program many have grown from small companies to a standing among the foremost busi Ii’ses oi America. The other, pursuing an erratic course as to advertising, plunging in good times and heavily retrenching in periods of stress, have fallen out of the first rank of business enter ■ prises and a number of them have ceased business entirely. Does it pay to advertise in dull times ? Posi tively it does. The future history of many an insti tution of today will prove that fact, similarly to the 120 in the Hodges survey. culties at present, the railroads are guaranteed nothing of the kind. What the Transportation Aet says, in effect, is that the lines may, IF THEY ARE ABLE, earn a return of 5'* per cent. There is no intimation of a guarantee. If the lines earn more, half of it is taken under the recapture provision and put into a fund for the benefit of weak roads. If they earn less, that is their hard luck. 9 Their competitors are generally less regulated and wat erway competition is largely subsidized by the government. A good many tax dollars which are used to make up waterway deficits are provided by the railroads. The railroads face a problem that will not pass with the depression, because of changing transportation methods. It is a problem that grows more important to the public which owns, direct ly or indirectly, billions of dollars of railroad seeurties, and is vital ly interested in the employing and purchasing power of the lines THE LESSONS FROM DEPRESSION The lessons of depression should impress our group and cause us to seriously consider the value of substance instead of chasing shadows. It is time to take stock of our extravagance, and separate luxuries from necessities, cut down overhead and expense, and live more economically. Some of us have been living too high and fast, and spending more than we make. No thought of tomor row, eat and drink today. Thus when this misfortune came upon us we were unprepared to cope with this unusual condition. We can not grind with the water that has passed over the wheel, nor can we bring back “the good old days" by wishing their return, but if we have learned the lesson taught by this present depression, and pre pare ourselves against the evil days, which are sure to return, the lesson though severe, will do us good. A REAL INVESTMENT During a time when the general public purchasing power has been far below normal life insurance sales have held a high level. That is a good augury for the future of the country. The kind of thrift that buys life insurance is the kind that builds homes and factories, and makes for stability in government, busi ness and society. A lot of us who went wild in the boom years are com ing down to earth. We are realizing that when it comes to invest ments nothing is superior to life insurance. We've found that it pays good solid dividends, protects both the insured and his depend ents against the future, and is as safe as anything conceived by man. And we’re acting accordingly. WHITHER TAXATION If there is a more vital issue at this time than taxation, the average citizen and business manwill have a hard time finding it. In 1890 the total cost of government. Federal. State and local, was $875,000.000—$13.88 per capita. In 1919 it was $7,465. j 000,000—$71.10 per capita. In 1929 it was $9,792,000,000—$80.58 ; per capita. It is considerably higher now. What it will be in 1935 ' if the present trend does on, challenges the imagination. The new | revenue bill gives no cause for optimism. Is the United States going the way of England, of Ger many. of Australia! Are we going to be swamped by bureauracy. waste, duplication, enlargement of governmental activities, patern alism and an eventual dictatorship of officeholders! The future of industry, of employment, of home build ing and of individual progress is tied up with the problem of tax | ation. High taxes frighten the investor, take money out of circula tion. paralyze business. The assurance of economical, efficient and restricted governmental activity would do more than anything else at this time to bring depression to an end. — NO TAX SANTA CLAUS Unele Sam, tax collector, is the very reverse of Santa Claus, for whom some deluded people have mistaken him. says the Oregonian. He does not spread bounty: he collects with relentless hand from all of us, from the cradle to the grave. When we ask Congress for money, we might as well realize that it will be taken ^ from our own pockets. PREACHERS AND BIRTH CONTROL by R. A. Adams (The Literary Service Bureau) It is a long way from the ruth less persecution of the earliest proponents and advocates of birth control to ita advocacy by minis ters of the gospel. But it was in- i evitable that these results should follow enlightment. There is the case of a Negro ; | minister who is the father of seven I I children. His wife’s health is! ! seriously impaired, and he has not j been able to secure support for ; these children, all of whom are under sixteen. Another minister I has nine children, the oldest being ! twenty-five and the youngest ten.' j Only one of these children has 1 been given a high school educa-1 to ruin; the next two are on the! ragged edge: and already the ; tion. The three oldest have gone i younger ones have in them the ! virus of destruction. Then, there is another such min ister who has a family of six children, all under seventeen. He has a small charge and it is a safe : bet that his children often are | hungry. It is certain fhat they I are under-nourished. These three ministers are educated and should have known better than to abuse their wives and handicap their chfltfben. They were not altruis-! tic and considered it their duty to | do so much toward keeping "the human race alive; they were just careless, and negligent; and their wives were ignorant and pitiablv docile. Except in extreme cases where it is a matter of life or death for the mother, as decided by com petent authority, destruction of infant life is murder. Wilful mis-carriage, abortion and infant icide as prevalent today are mur der. But, birth control by means of self control, and rational meth ods of contraception, is not im moral it is wise and it is contri butory to human betterment. NEGRO LOBBY ORGANIZED Washington (CN8) The Better Citizens’ Bureau, a potential Ne gro lobby and information bureau has been organized here with of fices at 907 l Street. Northwest. Dr. W. FI. Jernagin. president I of the National Baptist Sunday School Congress and Baptist Young People's Union, is presi dent of the organization. He serv ed *s delegate from the District of Columbia to the Republican Na tional Convention in Chicago. The other officers are Morris Lewis, secretary to Representative Oscar DePricst, vice-president and treasurer; Roy A. Ellis, executive secretary; J. C. Olden, correspon ding secretary, and J. C. Waters, legal advisor. The bureau proposes to see to it that the Negro's legislative needs and desires are known in the proper places at the proper time. Tbe Better Citizens’ Bureau has already appeared before Congres sional Committees in the interest of government aid for the unem ployed, equalization of labor con ditions and wages on public work. It is now interested in legislation before Congress in the matter of high rents in the District of Col umbia.
