INDIVIDUAL EFFORT BUILDS COMMUNITIES
Individual initiative has counted most in the progress the
country has made in the years passed and it is still the major
factor to be reckoned with in the progress we make in the fu
ture, notwithstanding the helps and aids offered by outside
agencies. Progressive, prosperous communities don’t just hap
pen. They are the result of planning by the citizenship involved.
And loyalty to home town enterprises Is a responsibility
that rests with the people of the particular community involved.
Lack of loyalty can not usually be laid at the door of any one
class. Pride of home ownership, the desire to see property val
ues stabilized makes for hometown loyalty.
There has been a great deal said on the subject of patroniz
ing home institutions, but unless the subject has been approach
ed in the right spirit; that of giving the other fellow’s view
point the same right as our own. little can hope to be accom
plished. We can’t expect the other fellow to do something we
refuse to do ourselves and we can’t work out any plan of action
unless both the business enterprises and the consumers agree
on a plan.
Usually the lack of the proper spirit is the result of passing
the buck to the other fellow. It isn’t human, you know, to want
to take personal blame for our own failures. We like to lay the
blame at the other fellow’s door.

NINE BILLIONS TO SPEND
Budgetary demands of the present congress will exceed
nine billion dollars, according to one source, although all de
mands are not in at the present writing. Relief is still taking the
major share of the national appropriation with an estimateri
three billion. Agricultural subsidity somes next in line with a
demand for $1,500.000.000: national defense next with an esti
mated $1.400.000.000. Approximately a billion will be spent in*
paying interest on public debt and $600,000,000 will go for aid
of veterans of past wars. The other items in the budget will go
for emergency appropriations one way or another.
This is a huge sum to be spent on a huge peace-time pro

of course to stop demanding so much, but what community,

INTERNATIONAL MORALS
Twenty-one years ago we fought a war to end wars and
save the world for democracy, but apparently, like most wars,
this war did not accomplish its purpose. The world has made
great strides on many fronts, but not so with international
morals if the present rate the armament race is being conducted
is any criterion. Nations are spending big sums for armaments
and equally big sums in training their citizens to be soldiers, not
because they want to but because they believe they have to for
the sake of self preservation.
The people of most nations hate war as bad as we do, but
unfortunately are not in position to prevent aggression on their
part of their leaders. Thus it can be said that the present inter
national distrust can be laid at the door of three or four men,
who seek self aggrandizement. So far as that goes the basis of
past conflicts are due largely to the same condition, where one
or more individuals were ambitious for increasing power.
