NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING VALUED BY THE KROGER | GROCERY & BAKING CO. “As usual, we are depending on | newspaper advertising to insure the | success of our Fall Value Carnival i in progress in all of our stores,” declared Albert H. Morrill, president 1 of The Kroger Grocery and Baking [ Company. I “No matter how many fine Values [ our purchasing department is able I to procure, or how effectively they 1 are displayed, it takes newspaper adJ vertising to tell our customers about I the sale", he continued. i “Ror last year’s Fall Value CarniII val we placed advertising in more I than 1,000 daily and weekly newsi papers with a combined circulation | of more than 12,000,000. We are reI peating the program this year. I “Not that the Kroger company uses | newspaper space only during the i sales," Morrill added. “We advertise i in these same newspapers week after | week throughout the year. Long ex- , perience has convinced us that this i sort of consistent and persistent ad- | vertising pays. It pays us, and it i pays our customers, too, because in- | creased volume permits us to offer better values.” i "The company has prepared strik- [ ing newspaper advertising using j safety markers familiar to all motorI fsts to depict the theme of the sale, l “Shop-and -Save with Safety.

[ "The late B. H.

NAPPANEE ADVANCE-NEWS, NAPPANEE. INP.

von Brauchitech arrived from Poland. Gone was the last chance for peace {See WAR OF WORDS) and the lethargic fighting of earlier weeks developed into serious warfare. Though French-English troops repulsed the Nazi sorties staged for Adolf Hitler’s benefit, the real battle was yet to come when Germany’s 70 divisions arrived from Poland. Seizing time by the forelock, British and French planes reportedly bombed the Friedrichshafen Zeppelin works and pounded their way right up to the main Siegfried line. War of Words Biggest revelation of the week was Britain’s “blue book” on prewar diplomacy, showing that Ambassador Sir Nevile Henderson had been warned on August 16 that Russia would join the Reich in partitioning Poland. This disposed nicely of the Soviet excuse that she had marched to protect Poland’s Ukrainians and White Russians. Biggest propaganda news was the British announcement that Germany’s “freedom” radio station was active again, urging people to desert Herr Hitler. But the biggest word battle of all was found between Rome and London. To Bologna Fascist leaders, Dictator Mussolini pointed out that Poland was “liquidated” and that the justification for war was therefore ended. Next day a British spokesman reiterated Prime Minister’s earlier recitation of Britain’s war aim: “To redeem Europe from the perpetual fear of German aggression.” II Duce’s peace feeler had failed. PAN AMERICA: Job, Opportunity Undiplomatic as happy kids who know a secret are U. S. business men who stand to profit from South American trade expansion during the European war. In late September, while 22 American nations met at Panama City to weld their friendship and neutrality, there was much bustling among tradesmen in New York and Washington. The National Economic and Social Planning association said the U. S. stands to gain “tremendously” in Latin-American trade, but was wise enough to warn that expansion must proceed on the “basic principle that the only justifiable purpose ... is to benefit all concerned.” Next day American Express company’s Lynde Selden announced his firm was opening a chain of Latin-American offices to help the U. S. in a boom trade he expected would reach nearly $300,000,000 a year. Gone are the days of U. S. “dollar diplomacy” in Central and South America, a policy which reaped as much ill will as it did profits. But there is every, indication that Eu-

SUMNER WELLES AND WIFE He bore no gifts. rope’s new war will indeed bring a trade boom, mqreover that U. S. profits this time will be instigated just as solidly by our southern neighbors as “dollar diplomacy’s” profits were instigated by American profiteers. , This turning of tables was obvious at Panama City. First off, the conference talked about neutrality and a 300-mile defense network around the entire hemisphere, in which belligerent activities would be banned. But U. S. Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles drew just as much attention as neutrality. While longhostile Argentina was negotiating a" reciprocal trade treaty in Washington, Undersecretary Welles was kept busy explaining why his country could not arrange more financial aid like it recently extended to Haiti, Nicaragua, Paraguay and Brazil. Reason: Congress’ failure to pass the lend-spend bill. Thus the Ex-port-Import bank, which financed Brazil’s recent purchase of 14 freighters, could not underwrite a similar bid from Chile. Though he bore no gifts, Undersecretary Welles could go back home with a pretty good idea of the job and opportunity confronting the U. S. in Pan- America relations: To “carry” its economically strapped markets until world markets are restored to normal. i Jf THANKB TO FRIENDS . Having sold my grocery to S. B.

JAPANESE BEETLES TRAPPED IN EIGHT CITIES; 311 CAUGHT Three hundred and eleven Japanese beetles were trapped in eight of the seventeen Indiana cities surveyed for this insect pest during the past three months, Virgil M. Simmons, commissioner of the Department of Conservation, says in his report. A majority of the beetles caught were in Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, and Logansport-76 in Indianapolis, 105 in Fort Wayne, and 98 in Logansportand control measures for treatment of infeted areas In these cities will be mapped by the Division of Entomology in cooperation with the U. S. Department of Agricultural. Other cities in which beetles were found during the 1939 survey included: Whiting, 11; Elkhart,s; Bluff ton, 3; Richmond, 2, and Muncie, 1. No beetles were found this year in South Bend where 53 beetles had been found in the last three years or in East Chicago where one beetle was found in 1938. No beetles were found this year in trapping at Elwood, Frankfort, Goshen, Mishawaka, Nap. phee, Plymuoth and Warsaw where no trapping was done in 1938. Tn Indianapolis Fort Wayne and Logansport, where soil treatment to kill the beetles has been done extensively, few beetles were trapped 'this year in treated areas. Most of the beetles found in the 1939 trapping were in new areas where the soil had not been treated with arsenate of lead in the past. Whiting, Muncie and Richmond were trapped in 1936 but no beetles were found at that time. It is estimated that approximately 38 acres of ground in Logansport, 20 acres in Fort Wayne and one hundred acres in Indianapolis should be treated to kil! the beetle larvae before it emerges ii#the adult state next spring. Th<y city of Indianapolis is cooperating with the control program through the purchase of arsenate of lead.
