Morning newspapers in smaller cities are giving way to
the time-Bivving advantages of evening editions. The Eugene
Register for many years, the outstanding morning news
paper ori the Pacific'coast outside of metropolitan cities, has
changed to the afternoon field. Faster wire service, faster
presses, faster transportation and tiie fact that the Pacific
coast is three hours later in timio than news centers of the
east' were given as reasons for the change. It is significant
of newspaper tendencies. The Register has long been one
of the .best papers in the Northwest. Its publisher, Frank j
Jenkins, is recognized as one of the most capable newspaper i
executives in this part of the country. That The Register
has. changed from a morning to an afternoon paper means I
only one thing: The afternoon paper is better able to serve
readers ana advertisers alike. In liugene it means (Continua
tion of The Register's policy of a constantly'improvttl paper,1
improved service. '
HANK BOOKS
America leads the world in many things, but of them; all j
it derives the greatest satisfaction from its leadership in
.number 'of bank accounts. There are more bank books and
more bank books per capita of population in the United
States than in any other country. Even in this presidential
year, which by tradition is supposed to be an off-year econ
omically, bank deposits are growing at an amazing rate.
There is deposited in the banks of the United States
$3,000 for every family. And this does not begin to indicate
the; volume of private savings, In no other country are there
so wide a distribution of shares in business enterprises, so
many small holdings of bonds, so many people who, as owners
of capital, have a stake in the prosperity of business and in
the welfare of the country. Moreover, millions are saved
each year in jhfe insurance.
Why? Continued prosperity. A living wage for all who
will work. Public faith in the integrity and safety of bank
ing institutions and business enterprises. And deep-sealed
American thrift, which persists though living standards rise
and installment plans multiply.
Under such conditions radical social and political move
ments find this barren soil. , Tho man or woman with a bank
account, life insurance and a block of stock or bond or two
has no appetite for political or social experimentation.
Neither has he or she a taste for a political party supporting
an issue holding some threat for the nations prosperity.
