Westerfield is the son of Mr. and
'Mrs. Charles 'M. Westerfield of Ce-
dar Rapids. The elder Mr. Wester-
field is well known to nearly all
Iowa newspapermen as the aMes-
man in Iowa for the Mergenthaler
Linotype Co. for many years.
Governor George Wilson has
made a recent appointment which
we heartily approve. It is of Tom
Purcell, well known editor of the
Hampton Chronicle, to the State
Printing Board. Tom has long
been both an outstanding weekly
newspaper editor as well as an out-
standing Republican. He will llring
a wealth of common sense and
sound newspaper experience to the
printing board.
pARTY IN I'O%VER HAS
TREMENI)OUS ADVANTAGE
During 1938, the government
sent through the mails, postage
free, 885,269,000 pieces of mail, or
over 94 million tons. If the regular
postage rates had been charged,
this would have brought in 35 mil-
lion dollars. During the last year
of the Hoover administration, 319
million pieces of mail were sent
out, free of charge. And this is
exclusive of all mail sent direct by
the postoffice department. The
circulation of this immense amount
of propaganda naturally gives the
party in power a great advantage
over the "outs" who want to gct
in. If the government were a pri-
vate ,business, marc than half of
this expense would ,be eliminated.
Contemplate the army of clerks,
stenographers and statisticians ne-
cessary to prepare this matter• The
government should fire about two-
thirds of these employees, put them
on relief if necessary. That would
lighten the taxpayers' load many
millions of dollars.
IOWA NOT l~OR TAI,'F
Former Senator I)iekinson is out
in an announcement that he favors
Senator Taft, of Ohio, for the re-
publican nominee for president.
The republicans of Iowa by a large ;
majority we ,believe, favor Senator
-~Vandenberg, of .Michigan, as the
repu,blican nominee over any other
prominent man who has yet been
suggested for the place.
~he small town ~business men and
the farmers have confidence in a
man like Vandenberg, and that's
the kind of a man the republicans
can elect.--Hampton Chronicle.
