G. 0. P. HEADS ; PLAN CAMPAIGN National Committee Reorganized With Hamilton Chairman Topeka, Kan., June 17. — fU.R) — Broad linea of the 1936 campaign organization settled, new and old Republican leaders moved today to fix the details of the strategy by which they hope to return to national power.

Other members of the revamped executive committee accompanied him. C. B. Goodspeed, appointed treasurer of the committee, will stop in Chicago, where he will establish new national headquarters. Meanwhile the party's nominees for the highest office. Gov. Alf M. Landon of Kansas, for president, and Frank Knox of Chicago for vice president, met again in Topeka to confer on details of speaking itineraries and their general methods of attack. The party organization was changed yesterday, with seven men members of the national executive committee joining eight old guard leaders on the group which will hold the reins of the party's drive. Hamilton and Fletcher traded jobs. Fletcher moved back to the post of general council and to the hands of 44-year-old Hamilton went the major duties of managing the G. O. P.

Charles Hilles of New York, Harrison E. Spangler of lowa, Daniel E. Pomeroy of New Jersey, and Ralph Williams of Oregon were returned to key positions.

“Barnum Was Right” THE one and only P. T. Barnum is alleged to have said many things that never found their way into our copybooks ... things to which few of us would wish to subscribe. But he uttered a profound truth when he said: “If you don’t advertise your business, the sheriff will.’’ Firms which intend to stay in business, that is, firms which deal directly with the public, must advertise. By the same token, it is a sign that they mean to stay in business when they do advertise. For they are offering, through advertisements, the values in their stores. You, the customer, will decide whether or not they are values. If they are not, it is “just too bad” for the firm that claimed they were. Don’t you sec, therefore, that no mercchant can afford to misrepresent himself or his goods in print? Advertising merely magnifies a misrepresentation—brings the fatal day nearer. Naturally, then, you can trust the advertisements in this paper. You can believe that the stores signing those advertisements want your trade, and are willing to earn it—with honest values and fair treatment. Read the advertisements. Patronize the advertisers. It is to your selfish interest to do so.
