largely in the same spirit. This visitor wants Monroe Street extended to the waterfront; that one wishes to attack a building ordinance that forbids what seems to him a reasonable structure; another is scandalized by something radical said by a teacher at the Irving School; here is a delegation of farmers inconvenienced by a soilconservation project; next is a banker and advertiser, a good friend but angry, decrying yesterday's editorial on the branch-banking bill; now a soil-conservation expert from Washington to explain how rapidly the county's soil is seeping away and how urgently something needs to be done; then a pair of labor leaders pointing out a small inaccuracy in yesterday's report of the Iron Works strike, maintaining that it was intentional and important, and demanding a lengthy correction. This is but the beginning of the day's callers. One by one they come, hour after hour, day after day. Fathers of drafted boys, clergymen, generals in the army, utopian uplifters, sordid self-seekers, politicians, dreamers, certified public accountants, aesthetes, careerists, agitators, Townsend Planners, educational reformers, tax spenders, tax resisters, tax evaders,-these and many others all feel that what is printed will help or hurt a favorite cause, and all bring to bear on the newspaper varying amounts of suggestion and advice, influence or dangerous pressure.
