VOLUME 66, NUMBER 36
WEST, TEXAS, FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1957
of Cattle Ticks and Politics
By DORIS HENDERSON
Nineteen hundred fifty-seven
is going to be a great year! At
this time it looks as if news-
papers can "expect a definite in-
crease in circulation. I have a
very good reason for saying this
—although I haven’t heard any
broadcasts relating to newspa-
per circulation, I haven’t read
about an ■expected increase, and
I haven’t conducted any per-
sonal surveys—but last week a
momentous and historic event
took place.
J. A., our Philosopher, bought |
a newspaper. I am certain it;
was the first one he ever bought
and it was a brand new news-
paper, not second hand. Now
that he has enjoyed reading a
new newspaper, there is no way
of telling what it will do for
th'e circulation of all the pa-
pers in the country.
For once you have experienc-
ed the Joy of reading a new pa-
per, not a used one—it is won-
derful. Ones a paper is read it
Jecomes used and abused.
It is unfolded and refolded,
creased and recreased—no mat-
ter how hard you try you can’t
hut the pagus back like they
were when you began — they
never again come out square
and neat, and say, where is
page 3 or 4? Oh, I see it over
there, under the chair.
And now that J. A. has read
a paper that is new, he will tell
others about it too, and they
will spread the word around, and
soon all thu two car families in
town will be considered passe
unless they subscribe for a pa-
per for Papa and another one
for Mama.
And why shouldn’t they have
two newspapers? Why should
Mama have to sit sitent and
wait to read the news until
Papa is through? When he drops
it crumpled on the floor, then
she can pick it up—piece by
piece, and try to pick out the
pages she wants to read. At any
rate she must pick it up, even
if it is past the stage of easy
reading, it is so useful for wrap-
ping garbage and stuff.
What was it the politicians
used to promise? A car in every
garage and a chicken in every
pot?
Well, I am just waiting for
those golden days when every
family will have not only two
cars, two TVs, two telephones,
two suits for the Mr., two ovens
for the Mrs. but two subscrip-
tions to their newspaper!
According to Printer’s Ink, a
weekly magazine sold to news-
paper and advertising folks, in
1957 there will be more adver-
tising .Dollar wise it will amount
ijto a 10% increase; 5 per cent
of that will be in increased costs
and 5 per cent more space.
Since our space rate for lo-
^cal advertising has not gone up,
that means you folks that have
things to sell ate going to have
to use 10 per cent more space—
or that survey is going to be all
wrong!
We can’t have a national sur-
vey incorrect, so be sure your
next advertisement is 10 per
cent bigger, or we will just have
to take steps to uphold our part
of that $10,500,000000.00 that is
going to be spent for advertis-
ing this year. That is a lot of
money, did you know it?
There is a problem or two in-
volved in just buying that much
advertising space. It takes a lot
of people to compose that many
different kinds of advertise-
ments, and a good ad man is
hard to find. Thus, raiding par-
ties armed with fat checkbooks
and well papped expense ac-
counts, are on the rampage.
Their objective is to procure
key ad men from their rivals
in a fast, quick raid and bring
him back a willing captive.
These raids can cause delays,
serious problems, breakdowns in
supply lines, even economic
death for advertising agencies.
Which proves a good man is
hard to find—and harder to
keep.
Another problem that actual-
ly has ad men worried is the 5
per cent increase in sheer' vol-
ume of advertising; 5 per cent
more space means more huge,
immense, enormous, mammoth,
mighty, titanic, colossal, monu-
•mental, prodigious, stupendous,
/gigantic and great big adjec-
tives; more whacky ballyhoo,
more ridiculous counter claims,
jectives were so worried about
this (especially after they heard
that Congress was going to
closely scrutinize TV commer-
cials) that they consulted a psy-
chologist.
Contrary to what you think,
they didn’t ask the Dr. how to
improve their power of concen-
tration so that they could think
up bigger and better slogans,
but what the present ideas they
were pouring over thu Ameri-
can public would do. They asked
—Can the consumer absorb that
many ideas? Will he rebel and
refuse to listen, to swallow any
more?
But the psychologists assured
them the human mind is able
to take it all in. They claim that
methods of communication are
perfecting themselves so fast
it’s easier for people to learn
now.
That is what the psycholo-
gists claim, but seems to me
that the more gibbblegabble the
ad men think up, the more we
ate going to have to listen to,
and the harder we are going to
have to try to sort the chatter
from the blabber, and then the
ad man and I will both be good
customers of that fellow who
claimed it was good psychology.
Of course from his side, it was!
It was!
So remember, if you too are
interested in good business dur-
ing the next 12 months, be sure
you advertise. Of course, from
my sidu, advertising is good bus-
iness. It is, it is!

Hillsboro Man
Shot Here Sat.
A. L. Helms of Hillsboro was
shot by Policeman Ned Odlu
Saturday night after Odle over-
took his car beyond Cottonwood
Hall. Odle fired into the rear
window of the car when the
driver refused to stop. Thu bul-
let struck Helms behind the
left ear and lodged in his neck.
Helms was brought to town
and a doctor removed the bul-
let; he was then driven to his
home in Hillsboro by Constable
Hollis McMahan.
The affair began when Odle
was checking the doors of build-
ings around 9:30 Saturday night
and he saw Helms’ car, driven
by Clum Brooks Jr., run a stop
sign. He stopped them, talked
with them, and requested they
follow him to the police hut so
that he might issue them a
ticket. In the car with Helms
were three negroes, Brooks, the
driver. Willie Smith of Brandon
and Nathaniel Washington of
Abbott.
Instead of following instruc-
tions they took off at a high
speed out of town and OdlU
chased them. He overtook them
near Cottonwood Hall, and when
they failed to stop he fired into
the car.
When the bullut hit Helms,
Brooks stopped the car, jumped
out and took off across the field.
Odle turned the police spotlight
on the field and tired at Brooks
several timus. It is not known
If he was hit or not, since
Brooks has not been located.
AIcMahan searched the field
the next day and found where
Brooks had slept. Hu was able
to trail him about a quarter of
a mile and then he gave up the
serach.
No charges have been filed,
however Odle resigned his posi-
tion Tuesday morning. Applica-
tions for the job are being tak-
en at the City Hall.

It Happened in West
Philosopher Breaks Record;
Buys His First Newspaper
(Editor’s note: The Philoso-
pher claims he has found com-
pany in his financial problems,
his letter this week reveals.)
• *
Dear editar:
With the Suez Canal jammed
with ships and Washington
jammed with Congressmun as
the new session got underway,
I naturally was interested in
getting hold of a newspaper be-
fore 1957 gets too old but I
searched this place thoroughly
and couldn’t find onu yester-
day, outside of one published
two weeks ago containing pre-
dictions on what Congress will
do this year and anybody who
relies on a newspaper column-
ist’s predictions is pretty hard
up and not very well equipped
to mace the future, so I went
into town and hauled off and
bought a copy and took it home.
I was just getting into it
when 1 read a statement by the
secretary of the Treasury say-
ing he felt sure the national
budget can be balanced this
year if a little increase in In-
come can be managed.
What this convinces me of Is
that the government operates
Its business about like I operate
mine. That is, I never have seen
the time when I couldn't bal-
ance my budget if I could man-
age to get a little more income.
People talk about tax relief,
about spending less, about eco-
nomizing, but me and the Unit-
ed States government have
found out long ago the only way
to make ends meet is to get a
little more money. I know I
could spend a little less, could
cut down here, do without there,
the same as you, but you and
me are rassling with the same
problem as Congress: the peo-
ple won’t let us do it. In Con-
gress' case, It's the voters. In
yours and mine, it's families.
The demands of the voters and
the demands of families ate the
two things that are keeping a
lot of noses to the grindstone.
Moreover, while 1 don’t know
about you, I know me and Con-
gress approach this problem in
the same way. That, is, about all
either of us has ever figured
out to dc about the need for
money is to wish for it and hope
for the best.
However, I'm proud to say
history is on our side. There
never was an administration or
ati average man who couldn’t
use a little mot" money, and
regardless ot how much cither
of us get tills year than we did
the year before, it won’t be quite
enough.
Yours faithfully,
J. A.
