CANTON. O..—-They hardly took
Don llieilett seriously when he told
them that organised vice had gained
a stranglehold on their city.
For nearly two years the youthful
publisher of the Canton Daily News
preached the gospel of a decent
citizonahip.
He told his fellow citizens that
bootleggers, pandere and done sell-
ers were operating in Canton un-
checked. lie told them that the
city was a haven for gunmen, a safe
heat for hi-jacksre and plug-ngiies,
a city whose law enforcement
agenc es were honeyconibed with the
dry r t of graft and incompetence.

utes a vital thought to New Eng-
land's industrial situation in an ar-
'tlcie. "How New England Can Be-
tain Trade Leadership." published
in “The Financial Digest." 1t fol-
lows:
There is no question but that in
the past New England has been a
leader in uality and quantity of
manufactu ed goods in nearly all of
the principal lines of industry. Of
recent years the leadership in vari-
ous lines has been taken away from
New England. This is a natural de-
velopment. for history shows clearly
- that; easily established leadership
and possession of wealth inevitably
leads to lack 0f aggressiveness and
most frequently te-deciine and fall
in any line of human activity. Add
to this the influence of the “dead
hand" recently mentioned in Wor-
cester. and the causes for the pres.
ent situation in New England are
evident.
“We all
know the situation in
New England today. We have de-
veloped enormous manufacturing
power. _We produce in large quanti-
ties. goods in many lines which com-
pare favorably in quality with any
produced elsewhere in the entire
World. We have our share of water
power. ports and harbors, transpor.
tattoo. skilled labor, and in fact all
the fundamentals for a succe-fui
and constantly increasing trade. Our
firmly established that it has led to
self—satisfaction. lack of aggressive-
ness ‘.and to e provincialisni which
has blinded us to the significance of
the development of manufacturing
country and to the need for develop-
ing new markets for our products.
Indonesians"
"I believe that our manufacturing
and production is amply cared for.
I also believe that our merchandis-
ing and sales methods are rotten.
and that our knowledge of markets
for our products. both domestic and
foreign, is infinitesimal. The remedy
for the situation lies in a realisation
of these facts and inmre-ive ao-
tion in merchandising. which in-
cludes advertising and publicity
proper packing and handling of our
products. and the belidlIg up of
sales and sales forces to balance our
splendid manufacturing and produc-
tion.
"We have today all the uses-s17

trade. Our government. and the
State Department in particular. Is

tives are more active than ever be-

That is the widow at Don Mnllett. .
She does not share in the (‘liv's
horrified surprise at the discovery:
that the underworld of which her
husband spoke is really in existence.
She knew as well as he did that
there were forces in t e city that
would stop at nothin to silent-nI
him. She knew of the anonymous
telephone calls he received. tth
vague, menacing hints of dangerl
that came ever and again. Shel
ltnsw that the unbroken calm of the 1
city's surface rested on drops that
were black and sinister.
Lurking Tragedy.
Yet—it was all so sudden. She
and her husband, with two friends
had gone to a party. Returning to
the Mellett home. the four had chat-
ted incdnsequentiaily on the froni
porch. while the breeze rustied fr.
the maples by the sidewalk.
All this while dusky figures lurk-
ed in the gloom outside, but she did
not see them.
Midnight came. and Mrs. llieliott
went to the kitchen to prepare a
lunch. Her husband stepped out the
back door to put their auto in the
garage.
Then there were five revolver
shots in the darkness. The quiet,
street, that had been a million miles
removed from danger and turmoil.
became. a place of veiled horror, of
deadly. mysterious shadows.
. Mrs. Mallett is not "prostrated by
grief." She bears up nobiy. But
she asks to be excused from talking.
And. looking in her face. you tinder-
stand that. she never, never will find
words to express the emotions that

and other agencies. is adequate for
export trade are available.
Going After Markets
“The essentials in addition to the
mechanical details are:
“l. Adaptability to our markets.
We must scrap. if necessary. all of
our former ideas as to modes and
manners of exporting.
"2. Study our potential customers
and give them our splendid quality
goods in the shape and form they
desire.
“3. Continuity of effort in our ex-
port business and we must protect
our customers and markets through
thick and thin and not. as hereto-
fore. consider the world markets as
a dumping ground in times of in-
dustrial and financial depression in
our home markets.
"4. Above everything else . we
must develop a personnel familiar
with the foreign end of the export
trade. This is utterly lacking today
and it goes without saying that all
discussion of development of export
trade without a. proper sales force
of trained Americans who know
world markets intimately. is nothing
but pure bunk.
Opportunities
“Our markets are waiting for us.
Our European trade is [well do.
veioped. fairly well understood. and
should remain constant without
much hope for large increase. The
undeveloped countries of the world
present. in my belief. a. great oppor-
tunity. '1‘ market in the Orient is
vast and on y partially developed. i
believe that our greatest natural
markets lie in Latin America. Its
potentialities are tremendous. it
produces the products and raw ma-
terials which we cannot furnish our-
selves and which we must hat. in
increasing quantities — t r o p ic at
fruits, sugar. tobacco. nitrates. tim-
ber. and hides, mention only a.
few. In return it ill need for years
to come all of our varied New Eng-
land manufactured products.
All we need is ability to visualize
our opportunities in the world mar-
kets. adaptability to our handling of
exports. development of personnel.
and the guts to stick to export trade
u l our efforts meet with success
Granting these points. there is not
the least question that New England
can maintain her rightful position
in the industrial and commercial
world."
