As a citizen of this nation and one intensely inter Wsted in its material development, I want to add my ap proval to the "Buy It In America" movement. Commer c1al Patriotism and business pride are the foundation stones of success in industry and no country can become supreme in commerce and trade without it fosters a spirit f friendship and partiality for its own products and insti tutlons. It is the spirit of the hive that makes the Wheels of industry turn and each community should be a progressive unit in our industrial universe. All things being equal the farmer should patronize the local mer chant who is always a good citizen, a heavy taxpayer and friend of the farmer. The farmer sends shiploads Vf'raw material to foreign markets and factories that meet on their way vessels laden with finished and foreign , lag to America.

YOUNG WHALEN KILLED. Apparently thinking more of his spiritual welfare than of his bodily hurts, as his strength was slowly ebbing as the result of fatal burns of the face and hands, which he receiv-,l at 1o::11 Saturday morning. Henry \V. B. \\halen's piteous pldea to be taken first to the Church of the Holy Name of Mary, before being sent to the Touro Infirmary, was granted, and he rPeceived the last rites of the ('atholic faith. tie died six hours later. Whalen. who was only 19 years of lage, and employed as an apprentice -teel car repairer by the Southern Pacific Hailroad, came about his burns In a peculiar manner. He was inside a large tank on a flat car in the rail road shop yards in Algiers, driving rivets. There still was a small quan tity of the oil in the tank, and the gases, arising from it, exploded when it became ignited by some sparks cauqed by the friction of the hammer striking against the rivets. Whalen was blown out of the tank uy the explosion. His screames and the explosion brought fellow-workerst to his rescue. Whalen's first thought [ seemed to be of the churchlt. He seemed to realize the seriousness of his condition, and begged to be firstt taken to see Father Thomas J. Lar kin. His request was granted, after c wRbich he was hurried to Touro In- " irmary. Y'oung Whalen was a son of Emma andry and the late J. J. Whalen. Be ides his mother, he is survived by wo brothers. John and Emile a Vhelan, and two sisters. Miss Annie Vhelan. and Mrs. Frances De Rocha, tl -ife of Bernard P. De Rocha. a mem- e ,er of the New Orleans police force. , The funeral was held from his l nother's home. in Sumner street, near hi )iana. at 3:30 o'clock Sunday.
