He is one of the and is Cooperator-patriot- s doing his level best to make a better world. of More money among people is the need of the times. A greater volume of circulating medium would insure greater purchasing pover, and greater purchasing power among the masses would be a healthy wave of prosperity. To prove this we wish to cite readers to a bit of movie history. When they decided to film the story of the notorious Jesse James the movie colony moved into the county where the principle scenes of the bandit's career were laid. They found the people in that and adjoining counties as poor as poverty itself. There was no money there and the depression had done its worst. The condition seemed almost hopeless. The fences were sagging, the lawns dying, the houses beginning to tumble and much of the land refusing to produce as once it did. Bacon and corn were about all the people had to eat. Half of the people were unemployed. The movie people came into that sparsely settled district with a quarter of a million dollars, remained a long time and spent very freely of the money. They employed every soul in the community but one, who couldnt stay sober What time t was for the people. Almost a millenium of prosperity. Every one had plenty of money and every one proceeded to spend it. Some fixed up their homes, painting, repairing fences, barns, etc- All bought clothing and dry goods, bicycles, cars, radios, etc., and business thrived as never before. It was the greatest season of prosperity and happines ever witnessed by these poor people. Thats what an increase in the circulating medium did. And thats what it would do for the whole country. If it was worked right every community could be always as prosperous as a movie colony. The circulating medium could be increased by remonitizing silver, or by printing and distributing greenback money like Abraham Lincoln did to help save the union, or by the General Welfare Plan now before congress. Why not? Why not? - mtr how many times we knok down Mr. E. Rollings with arguments, or he knocks us, he always retags sufficient courage to come back. And the last time he came with silver in his hand and laid his offerings on the altar with good will. He sure is a missionary for his cause and we dont mean maybe No Fred Huffner takes kindly to the paper and has remembered us with a remittance.
