UTAH, H A HIGH LEVEL OF MANLINESS I ! New Yorker Believes Journal In The Right And .Will Finally Triumph Has Watched With Interest Present Paper Controversy. FRENCH MEDAL COMFAEMORATING AMERICAN LEGIONS PARIS VISIT New York City, December 18, 1929. , Mr. Charles England, The Journal, Logan, Utah. Dear Mr. England: Prior to entering business for myself back in the spring of 1916 as a publishers representative I had been part of the affairs, editorially and businesswise, of newspapers in both, the smaller and metropolitan centers. With one exception, all of my newspaper experiences were with daily newspapers appreciably below first place, and I know some of tHe'details bf battles. so to speak, all but to the death. The foregoing is inspired in the reading with interest of The Journal of December 12 and 13 and of The Herald of these two dates. Your greetings to Mayor Lundstrom in two panel measure upon the. first page of your issue of the 13th are well taken and the Mayors answer to the Herald covers in a manner most manly the situation. In admitting his unhappy mistake in human nature and in his make good this mistake in dollars and cents to willingness-tsuch merchants as may have lost money by reason of his endorsement is a high level of manliness. Since my high school days I have kept a series of scrap books, pasting miscellany, from prize fights to grand opera, from silly verses to philosophical gems. In my current scrap book will be shortly pasted Mayor Lundstroms answer to the Herald. Years ago I read as did many the colorful Call of the Wild by Jack London and I recall particularly the chapter relative to the dog fight in the far northern regions and the victory of the great ; COMES TO MRS.

It is sure disgusting and too devlish bad that you and your associates who have through the years kept the faith and have been factors of so great importance in the progress of Logan, the advancement of things worth while civically, and the protection of the home, find yourselves in this maelstrom of competition, no holds barred and the devil take the hindmost. Might sometimes tells the story and then again it doesnt and by might I mean simply the vulgar power of money. As something of a veteran in newspaperdom the" daily newspaper to me spells the soul of the publisher- - rather than a material home and a first class plant, and so I can but believe that The Journal under your guiding hand will not only weather the present storm of competition but grow in strength throughout the months. To this end, more power to you. For lack of a better opportunity we wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and may the New Year spell health unbroken and the sunshine which is chargeable to honest work well done.
