FRIDAY, DECEMBER X4, 1923. The Farmer Won’t Be Fooled Whatever may be public opinion in refs-mioe to a soldiers * ♦bonus. whether approval spring from the welttug; of gratitude ir, the American heart, or disapproval come from calm examination of the country’s finances, Senator Smoot, who apposes the bonus, is likely to stub hie toe in his proposition to meet the emergency by establishing a sale# tax. And he is not likely to fool the farmer by alluding to his proposed bill as an ’’expenditure tax.” The people are already taxed to death. The farmer already is suffering severely from having to pay Sxhorbitant prices for the things he has to buy while obtaining very low prices for what he has to sell, and, unquestionably a gales tax will not lessen this burden. The Senator who ad­ mittedly is one of the country’s foremost experts in taxation, tries to cross this bridge and assuage the farmer by providing tha t all expenditures below $5,000 shall be exempt from the pro­ posed tax, but it is difficult to sea how this will affect the farmer any more than any other class of our eitisesw. The expenditures of the farmer, as a fact are usually on a. larger scale than the expenditures of men personally engaged in many other industries. Moreover, Senator Smoot should re­ member if there is one characteristic that Btands out in the-man with the hoe i t is the spirit of fa ir play which always bespeaks opposition to class legislation. "The farmer’s cry iff for a square deal. He does not ask anyone to discriminate in his favox1. All he asks, is that the government shall not discriminate against him. No matter how sincere the senator from Utah,may bo, the farmer will not silently agree to be placed in a position where he may be pointed to as accepting benefits under a system of class legislation when he has consistently and persistently pro­ tested against this sort of thing. Hd knows, too, the ills from which he suffers never can he soled by any sales tax, and that the proposed exemption is aimed only a t obtaining his approval of a measure that will add a still greater burden to the American people. I f Senator Smoot wants to find a way to wOet the soldiers; bonus problem, let him approach the task from a, different angle. The farmer is opposed to a sales tax, call it what you will, and he won’t be misled by the exemption clause.

The home town pnbfiea- .titm is a mirror of the life of the community, inspiring, suggest­ ing, helping, and usually Sacrificing A great deal to the.genoral work of upbuilding. It ts the concentrated reflection ’ of ihe • home town interest, as opposed to activitiesdb its midst, whose sole aim is to take the home town dollar Out of town and attach it to the bank account of sortu foreign corporation, The appeal of the foreign corporation for the home town dollar is usually an appeal to cupidity camouflaged as safe and economical buying. ,Fot the roost part it is made in secret— direct by-mail—-the circular, the booklet, the disguised mimeo­ graphed letter systematically prepared by expert mail salesmen, with the usual “ follow ups” destined to extract and carry away to the distant bank account the money of the unthinking. Tbo very secrecy of the appeal is its own condemnation. I t a amazing to note how slow is the average newspaper reader to appreciate the value of frank and open newspaper advertising. Not only in this way is the housewife enabled to learn what the market has to offer, but in the frank open adver­ tisement lies an absolute security from exploitation, Newspaper advertising is the housewife’s weekly insurance. The day has' passed when the ad -ertiser dare be dishonest. The statements in an advertisement are shouted from the housetops. They are too easily checked op. They become the guarantee of service and of honest dealing. The direct-by-mail appeal is like the secret whisper passed from ear to ear but without any general publicity that ensures complete honesty of statement. As a rule, its underlying principle is sinister. To supplement and become a part of any well-organized campaign it has its value, but stand­ ing alone it should arouse suspicion rather than confidence.
