SMALLER PAPERS PATRIOTIC
The smaller city dailies and the
country weeklies are the great force"
for good in developing the communi
ties they serve.
The big metropolitan dailies may
influence national affairs some but
it is the country community that de
termines things.
Many people have formed the habit
;f merely scanning the headlines of
the big city dailies, while smaller
pa pern are read through. '
In the recent election the contest
was between an extension of state
socialism and real Americanism, big
vity papers booking socialism. i
The smaller city and country pres J
s patriotic and consenatlve. and !
loes not rush hostilities with other '
countries hat lead to war.
There are big metropolitan papers t
hat would force our country into
war with Mexico and Japan for what
'hey could make out of it. Ex.

Eighty seven Per Cent In 1930
Against 83 Per Cent In 1919
Think Public le Opposed
to Radicalism.
The American public l more In
tensely opposed to Government opera
tlon thnn It wui a year ago. according
to the newspaper editors of the coun
try. Oul of 5.1M editor replying to
qiiest Ion n I re eeut out by the I'ress
Service Company of New York. 4.4(10,
or 8(1 per cent, gave It a their Judg
menl that the people of their cominu-
' ulilcs wpro overwhelmingly against
' the llovei nment competing lo busluesa

I In HM9 the Press Service Company
! conducted a similar canvass of editors
! on the government operntlon of rail-
roads That questionnaire showed thnf
, &l per cent of the edltore considered
1 their communities against Govern
, tnenl operntlon of public utilities.
' Apparently, then. If editors estimate
' public opinion nccurotoly, that opin
ion In a year, considered by commu
nities, lias swung 3 per cent farther
sway from socialistic experiments,
i Eleven Million Circulation,
j The combined circulation of the pa
. pers whose editors replied Is IM'-H,-!
817, which means, according to Ihe
usual estimated rstlo between circula
tion and renders, a constituency of al
i least 44.000,000. And this constituent
, cy Is pretty evenly scattered through
! out the country, no considerable sec
tion of any state being unrepresented,
j The estimate of opinion based on this
! thoroughly diffused 44 per cent of the
j country's population may, therefore,
j te considered a fair representation of
ti e people as a whole.
Another feature of the result Is U
evident lack of partisan bias. The
major political affiliations of the pa
pers represented are fairly evenly di
vided, being 1.857 Republican and
1,300 Democratic. There are si so 1. 4 S5
I Independent and 412 inim elluneotis,

sentiment on Ibis (fjestlun even lu
the more radical sections.
Judgment Apparently Unbiased.
The questionnaire closes with a re
quest for (he editor's personal opin
ion on certain concrete cases as fol
lows: "Do you personally believe that the
Federal Government should own and
operate competitive Industries lo pro
vide: (a) Fertilizer? (b) Clothing?
(c) Automobile? (d) Farm Imple
ments? (e) Foodstuffs?
Substantially all the editors who
gave estimates of their readers' opin
ions also expressed their own by re
plying to this last question. Proof of
considerable effort to ' ovoid personal
bias is found in the fact that In many
cases the editor differed from the
opinion he credited to his community.
The percentage of "nos" ran: (a)
78; (b) S3; (c) 86: (d) 82: (a) 7.
While the questions were based on
general principles Involved In the
Government participating In competi
tive business, the so-called Muscle
Shoals Ulll now before Congress was
used as a concrete example of a Gov
ernment operation scheme. Under this

THK handy llllle knife you carry In
your pocket was evicted of neces
sity In the days when people wrote
with quill pens instead of sleel. The
quills wore down or broke, and It was
necessary fo .reshape theiu. Scriven
ers found It unhandy to have a
straight knife always with thepi, so
the present folding article was Invent
ed to III! ihe want. The name survives
though the use has gone.

Common Errors In Foolish and
How to Avoid Them
THE USE OF "COT."
Till', word "k'et" and Its deriva
tives, "got" and "got ten." have
their roH-r place In the Ktigllsh lan
guage, but they are frripo-iiily over
worked and misused. "Get" means
"to acquire, to gain, to obtain, to pro
cure." and It tbies not menu to have
or to become. To say "lie got a for
tune," meaning that he acquired one,
I correct uge. but It Is not correct
to euy "lie's got a fortune" when one
means "He ha a fortune." Hay "I
have a cold." but d not say "I have
got a cold" or "I've got' a cold."
Some authorities permit the use if
"have got." meaning 'have." but they
call such use colloquial, meaning that
It Is common but Is not recogiilr.cd as
standard. It I. however, sometimes
defended on the ground that long
tisago has made R a part of our com
mon speech.
"I did not get to go there," and elm
liar expressions, are heard some
times, but they are example of an
other faulty use of the word "get."
Say. "I could not go there." or "I had
no opportunity lo go there."
