DEAR OLD PETE:
.Winston-Salem, N. C,
Friday p. m.
Just wound up the one swellest day of
tny life! Since early 'this morning, when I
got an invitation to visit K. J. Reynolds
Tobacco Co. factories, I've been in the
midst of millions of Camel cigarettes.
Man the happiest idea you or I ever
had as to the size of this Reynolds enter
prise, or the number of Camels manufac
tured daily, is simply piker-stuff I Wipe
off the slate and start fresh! Why Pete,
it seemed to me like a couple of those cigarette-making
machines could keep half the
nation smoking Camels steadily BUT
honest to goodness, there are hundreds ol
. these machines batting out Camels at the
rate of 27,000 an hour EACH!
Pete, you wouldn't have to consult a guide
v book to know you were in the Camel fac-
tories! The atmosphere is charged 'with
, that wonderful aroma you get when you
open up a deck of Camels! And, you know,
. old elephant you've had a trunk full!
"i As the Camels dropped into the contain-
ers I figured the delight each one would
' supply! And, how Camels mellow, mild
body would hit the right spot and how
! Camels refreshing flavor would cheer up
some smoker's jaded appetite! And, each
Camel free from any unpleasant cigaretty
aftertaste or unpleasant cigaretty odor!
And
Pete I'll have to lay off and light an
other Camel! Write you some more soon.
Yotirs joyously
laws forbid the naturalization of the
yellow race. It. would not work more
than a temporary hardship on accept
able aliens from Europe or elsewhere,
because nil they have to do in order
to qualify for land-awnership is to
take out nuturaJiiation papers. This
is practically the same policy adopted
hy Camilla and other flritish domin
ions, and by a few of aur own state.
I he rainier and the farm hand neid
one another, and as (hev find the
purchasing power of the dollar 'as
cending; slowly but suicly, wage ad
justment will folhiw.
