A feature writer in a^Chicago paper uses a letter from a Xenia business man, under copyright, that asks the above very important question. The writer was applying the NRA to small city and small town business and we take the liberty to venture the guess, reading between the lines, that the Xenian was none other than our old friend, Frank L, (Hoke) Smith. Xenia recently lost a shoe factory over labor trouble that is credited to the NRA. The factory was started by a local citizen and later joined with Cincinnati interests and the Cin­ cinnati branch moved to Xenia because of labor trouble. The peak pay roll at times reached $7,000 a week, which meant much to Aenia business interests. With labor trouble over the NRA the company finds no advantage in a smaller town and removes the plant to Cincin­ nati resulting in vacant homes, merchants hard hit because the NRA took away the advantage the small city enjoyed over the large city. What the nation is suffering from most is the fact that our center of government was in Washington, where influence of the industrial east easily outweighs demands of the west. The eastern influence has dominated our national governmental pol­ icies for many years and it has made little or no difference as to the political complexion of the administration in power. Under a former administration Wall Street was the domi­ nating factor. Under the NRA union labor, with various trusts hiding behind the anti-trust laws, now find a new way to pull at the purse strings of commerce and retail trade. NRA may have been inspired as a “noble experiment" and a protection to small business but captains of finance, heads, of trusts and labor leaders now dominate the code situation and are fighting to surpress all small business that has been overburdened with overhead expenditures' at a critical time. There are some manu­ facturing institutions owned by Wall Street that openly favor the NRA plan and are urging that Congress make it permanent. The problem of the small business institution is that it can­ not get a large enough volumn of business to justify present overhead. Large department stores in cities have profited by the NRA and boost its cause at all times. What the administra­ tion has failed to take in consideration is that the largest per­ cent of purchasing power of the people as a. whole has been in the rural section and small towns' of America. The cities can not exist, any number of years depending on consumption of their own products manufactured. The industrial east has never had much concern for the rural west under any administration. In former years the United States Senate has been completely dominated by great financial interests and it has not been often that the average citizen or farmer has had a spokesman in that body from Ohio. We have no great hopes of the NRA being a success as it stands or is how being operated for Gen. Johnson is digging a deeper grave for it with each speech he makes. Our concern as the situation is surveyed is' that Congress is to be asked to make the NRA permenantfby legislation at the next session. The fact the steel trust is renewing its code with the administra­ tion. should cause small business men to begin at once to de­ mand of congressmen and senators as to how they are to vote on legislation of the NRA brand at the coming session of con­ gress. Ana Xenia should be the first to start this movement in Ohio. THE DANGER OF FIAT MONEY The economic health of America is vigorous enough and its economic resources are great enough to warrant confidence that our business fabric will withstand the pending or threat­ ened experiments* with one exception—-resort to fiat money. The experiment of the NRA, even if it proves unsuccessful, -will not be fatal. The price-fixing and processing-tax methods of the AAA may fail, but agriculture will survive. But if the country is plunged into an orgy of uncontrolled inflation stark disaster lie 3 ahead. The suffering this would entail would be confined to no class and no region. It would destroy debtor and creditor alike. It would rob the wage earner in his modest home no less than it would strip the rich man of his possessions. The plain, unmistakable lessons of history teach naught else. No nation which resorted to the printing press ever escaped, and the economic law which brought them ruin operates no less effectively in America than it operated in France, in Germany, in Russia, in Austria, or wherever it has been put to the test. There are two directions from which this danger may . come. The f) *st of these, and the most obvious, and consequent­ ly the least ikely, is through deliberate congressional action, authorizing the printing of unsecured promises of the govern­ ment to pay, to be used as lawful money. We sincerely believe that the President, in company with an overwhelming majority of the American people, is opposed to such a proposal, and would combat it if necessary by veto power. The other direction from which the paper money evil im­ pends is less easily discerned. It is, therefore, the more danger­ ous. Resort to.printing-press money can be forced on the coun­ try involuntarily if expenditures by the treasury are permitted upon so great a scale as to impair the credit of the nation. If the national credit is undermined, and the treasury can no long­ er borrow for its necessities,.then the sole resort left is to fiat currency to meet current obligations. If we once reach that point the descent to ultimate disaster will be swift and certain.. There are multiplying signs on the economic horizon that the federal credit structure has been subjected to the maxi­ mum strain within the limits of safety. Under such conditions the country has the right to expect that the President will listen to the counsel!* of his soundest and most experienced financial advisers, and put aside for a safer and less critical time experi ments with our monetary structure.—-Chicago News.

The establishment of the church nt Corinth Is nn exnmple of missionary endeavor for all ages. The method employed and the message delivered which resulted in success then will re­ sult in success now, I. The True Missionary Method (Acts 18:1-3). ■ Paul came to Corinth a stranger in & strange city. His method of gaining a foothold was, 1. Finding a home (v. 2). This he found with Aqulln and Priscilla who ' had recently been expelled from Rome. Being of the same nationality, there was a natural affinity with them. 2. Toiling for dally bread (v. 3). Paul was of the same craft as bis host. Every Jewish child was taught some trade by means of which he could gain his livelihood, should occa- ■slon require.- Missionaries should not lie nbove honest toil. II. Preaching in the Synagogue at /.Corinth (Acts 18:4rS). r 1. Compelled to toll for a, living, (v. 4). Though compelled to toil for a living, lie did not lose sight of his main work, tie reasoned In the syna­ gogue every sabbath, persuading the Jews anil the Greeks. 2. His activity increased through the coming of Silas and Timothy (v. b). This was caused by, a. Favorable report from the church at Thessalonlca. This report put new "vigor into his labors. b. They brought pecuniary gifts Tram the Macedonian church (Phil. 1:15; II Cor. 11:0). Being now free 'Torn the necessity of tolling for a liv­ ing,- he could devote more time nnd energy to preaching the gospel, c. Silas and Timothy became help­ ers to Paul in the work. 3. Increased opposition (v. 0). Paul’s increased activity met witli increasing opposition. 4. Paul announces his purpose to turn to the Gentiles (v. 0). This was •necessitated becau.se of the- opposition and blasphemy of the Jews. . ,5. Paul in the house of Justus (vr, 7, 8). He remained sufficiently near those whose hearts God lind touched that they could enslly find him. Ills success .here was such, that Crlsptis, the chief ruler of the synagogue, was converted. Paul departed from his usual custom and baptized Crispins. III. Paul's Vision (Acts 18:9-11). This vision was for the purpose of giving encouragement to Paul at this time. His experiences'In Europe were most trying. 1. “Be not afraid" (v. 9). The one who is doing the will of the Lord need not he afraid. 2. “Speak, and hold not thy peace" (v. 9). The one who lias heard the voice of God cannot refrain from speaking, 3. “I am with thee" (v. 10). All who faithfully curry out the. divine commission can be assured of the dl vine presence. 4. “No nuin shall set on thee to hurl thee” (v. 10). No harm can come to the Lord’s servant until his work It . done. 5. "I have much people in this city’' (v. 10). The one who goes forth with the divine message can be assured thaf Ills ministry cannot fail. IV. Party Spirit In th* Corlnthlar Church (I Cor. 1 :10-18). • In this church rival faction* were contending against each other. Soni* were for Paul, some for Apollos, sonu for Peter, and some for Christ.
