AMERICAS TOGETHER
MAY SAVE A WAY OF LIFE
It is becoming more and more
obvious that the Pan-American
Conference which opened in
Peru this month presents New
World democracy with a great
■opportunity.
Events in th.; Old World are
giving this meeting an import
ance which no previous Pan
American Conference has had. In
the past, these conferences have
been productive chiefly of high
sounding talk: this year, th logic
of events is forcing the states- i
men to act.
While it is true that democracy I
as we understand it is not a very j
robust growth below the equator, j
it is also true that something,
fundamental to the New World j
way of life is bang threatened;
from Europe. The Latin nations!
fought to free themselves of over!
-seas tyranny, just as the people,
of the United States did: and al-!
though many of them have had J
dictators of their own for many j
years, there is a world of differ- j
ence between their kind of die- j
tatorship and the kind now dom- j
anant in Europe.
The European dictatorships are'
not simply one-man tyrannies. J
They call for a regimentation of
social and economic life such as
no New World tyrant '?ver dream ■
ed of. They represent the growth i
in human society of a philosophy
which would effect all interna-'
tional relations, all trade re-;
lations, all cultural relations. ^
They stand for a closing of op-!
•portunity “and a fixing of social j
classes. 1
The New World, both north
: and South of the equator, was
settled and developed by men
who opposed that sort of thing
from the bottom of their souls.
However imperfect democracy
may have been in. the United
Staks, however must it may
have been flouted in the Latin re
publics, the way of freedom has
nevertheless been fundamental
to the New World spirit.
So th;s conference offers a
great chance for the people of the
New World to perfect their de
fenses.
That is not. primarily a mili
tary problem. It calls for little in
the way of conferences between
military and naval authorities.
If the statesmen can find ways
to keep the channels of New
World trade clear, if they can
formulate some program by
which the New World nations
can, through the interchange of
goods, services and ideas, main
tain and improve their economic
levels and move forward toward
a freer and richer life — then
there will be much less reason
to be afraid of developments in
Europe.
The dictator states may co
erce a single nation; they cannot
coerce half the world. In the Am
ericas opportunity still exists. If
the Americas stand together,
they can make of their half of
the world a thriving, unregiment
ed trade area which totalitarian
economics cannot affect. And if
that is done, the New World way j
of life is saved.
This conference is thus an op
portunity — and a challenge. If]
the stat smen meet It, the steady :
J Wings on high, brings Christmas Cheer, J
+ Happy thoughts, throughout the year. +

THIS WEEK’S
ADVERTISEMENT
(Cordova Tames)
The reason it pays to buy fron
a store or other firm which ad
vertises is so obvious that men
statement of it must of necessity
sound repititious.
j When a mercantile or profes
sional establishment pays ou
money weak after week to broac
least its message to the world
through 'the columns of a news
paper, it is investing in good wil
3s well as inviting customers tc
come and get it.
When an advertiser invests
some of his money in good will,
he mak s certain that 'he gets his
[ money's worth by striving to the
utmost to give his customers
J more than they expect in sav
i ings. service and satisfaction.
If you have ever come out at
the short end of an unsatisfac
tory deal—and who hasn’t—it’s
almost a sure bet you were doing
business with a non-advertiser.
The class of businessmen who
are intent solely upon a quick
profit never invest, an advertise
ing dollar in good will. That
method of building business suc
cess is too slow for them. In time
how. ver, they may discover that
th route they selected is the
hardest one.
When you buy from the firms
whose advertisements appear in
this edition of the Times you are
assured of th most for your mon
ey in value and quality. This has
been connoted “a buyer’s year”,
and it certainly is—for the wise
shopper who buys from establish
men's that demonstrate their con
fidence in the valur of good will
by advertising their wares and i
their services.
