Las*, week this paper carried ar. editorial on the need for legislation to control the law.ess element of our unions It r.as brought more comment back to us than anything we have earned since taking over the paper We haven't made direct inquines to get individual re action but apparently a lot of other people feel strongly about this matter A ll comments but one have been favorable for the action called for. or something similar that will free the honest members of the unions (and the public) from the control of lawless leaders The one dissenting vote merely said h<:- could not go along with all of it We are not trying to fool ourselves with the idea that all people agreed with us There are people who, if you criticize the unions in any part or respect, disagree with, you in whole— these are like the people who are so narrow that they can see nothing but good in their own political party and nothing but bad in the other one You will also find another group of people who feel that they should share in the accumulations of all other people who are better off financialv than them selves— a sort of “ SOAK-THE-RICH and DIVIDE-THE- S P C IL S " class One pitiful part of the whole thing is that our legis lators are taking their stand on labor legislation from a political viewpoint and not from what they really know is right and fair And as usual it is the public who w ill suffer As of Tuesdav. there were 500.000 steel strikers idle, more than 100.000 non-strikers of allied industries who were forced out o; w r . by the strike, the steel industry was losing 300 million dollar» worth of business each week, the idle workers wpre 1 - * 70 million dollars in weekly pay. ar.d McDonald, he; e * e steel workers union, was gone to Dn"t the picket He said he was not going to re tiate with the “ second-string” quar terback. R Cor~ad ^ per. who was selected as the chief negotiator for 12 ~ a ,o r steel companies involved It may be that McDonald has seen how successful Khrushchev has been in insisting on meeting with the “ top-man.” and so he won't condescend to talk to a mere vice president of one of the companies. The outcome of this strike and the pending labor leg islation are of great importance t you. M r Citizen, and the principles involved are much more vital than the mere price spirals that usually occur. 1958 was a very bad year in the U. S. automobile in dustry Sales were lower than anticipated and far lower than 1957, with but one exception—American Motors, with its Rambler car. whose sales increased 80 percent over the previous year. American Motors, in setting its 1958 record, spent six million dollars on advertising. More than two-thirds of this was for newspaper ads and absolutely nothing for TV Other car manufacturers spent large sums on TV It w ill be argued that 1958 was an unusual year and that these figures are meaningless, but another factor to dis pute this was that the one showing the most loss was the one which spent the largest proportion of the advertising budget on TV. TV and radio are great mediums but nothing can supplant the newspapers, when it comes to selling your products TV and radio are primarily for entertainment and are not designed for information or education. They are ideal for telling you about the weather, the current livestock market, and short newscasts But you must be at a particular place and at a particular time to see or hear the message they have to offer And usually vou must grasp the message the first time it is offered to you or it is long gone The old reliable newspaper tells you who has what to sell, the price, and when it is available And. if you are too busy to read it when it arrives, it w ill wait until you come in from the field It won't fade out in five seconds, and you can refer to it over and over for the needs of the entire family The merchant who does not advertise when business is bad because he says he can’t afford to. and who doesn't when it is good because he doesn’t need to is like the Arkansas Traveler with the leaky roof needing repairs— he just doesn’t get the job done IMAGINE!
