The great social movements of the Nineteenth Century were nearly all originated and fought for by women. These women worked under severe hardships, without finances, without the right to vote, and under the handicaps of social ostracism and the fact that they then were living in a man's world. Today all that is changed. Now it is in many ways a woman's world, of women control the purse-strinThey have more pothe nation. tential power today than e ver before in history.

But, In the opinion of many an authority, the question of whether this country is to remain at peace or go to war will be answered in that vast Oriental . land that lies some 6,000 miles away from our Pacific Coast. We now have a very different Far Eastern policy than we had a year or two ago. We are taking a firm stand with Japan. Our efforts at appeasing her are apparently over. This new policy could have been forecast when the President appointed Mr. Stimson to the Cabinet. When Mr. Stimson was secretary of state under President Hoover, he tried to effect a Joint Eng- policy which would have stood squarely in the way of g in ' China.

Furthermore, they argue that we have an economic stranglehold over Japan that if we refuse to buy from her and sell to her she will not longer be able to obtain the resources that are necessary to building an empire. And lastly, they quote naval author ities who have testified that if war comes, and fleet is pitted against fleet we can wipe out Japan's navy in a matter of months. On the other side are those who argue that we have no business in the Far East Our investments there are comparatively small, and belong primarily to a few very large industries. The Philippines are, in the view of some, practically indefensible, and should be abandoned, along with Guam and other lesser outposts. So far as the natural resources of the Dutch East Indies are concerned, they say, we can use substitutes or find and develop other resources nearer at home. Lastly, they believe that we cannot afford the gamble that a war with Japan would entail it would mean that our naval power would be concentrated in the Pacific, almost a world away from our shores, thus leaving the Atlantic coast undefended and open to attack from Europe if England collapsed. Whether this will become a telling political issue in the short time remaining before election is still another factor. Mr. Willkie, like Mr. Roosevelt, is in favor of helping China and combating Japan. But, going by his speeches, he feels that this can be done without taking a chance on involving ourselves in a war which we might lose and which would be immensely expensive, in both dollars and materials, even if we won. Hugh John son, one of the leading columnists, recently wrote that Mr. Roosevelt is leading a war party and Mr. Willkie " Untha.rCY aftumnMi is in real life Ruth Yorke, promi nent actress on the legitimate stage and known to radio since the days when she played "The Little Princess." car-L- a 1 V wan"1"- .seK '' - ' .

Whitney Floyd, extension forester at Utah State Agricultural college, advises. For best results, the area should be prepared well in advance of the planting, he says. Organic matter in the form of grass, weeds, or a soiling crop can be plowed under and allowed to decompose to furnish food for the usu of young trees. Ground plowed in the fall will have more moisture for spring planting, it will also have a better mulch. By planting time, the soil will be settled and more suitable for working. Farmers who prepare their areas in the fall have more time for fencing, Professor Floyd says The construction of a fence is Imperative to protect the young trees from the grazing and trampling of livestock. Plans that are made this fall ahouVl include the location of the area, ;the type of trees to be used, the number of trees that will be needed, and,, if planted for windbreak, ' wbefe..the trees are to be planted in reference to the area that is td be protected.

Koean the first of the 17 western states to gain approval of a small reservoir pro ject under the $3,500,000 program. The Newton reservoir project in Cache county, was given an official okeh Thursday in Washington, D. C. Already the machinery has been put into motion for actual construction, according to T. H. Humphreys, state engineer. The project, located about two and one half roile3 northeast of Newton, was described last week by John C. Page, U. S. commissioner of reclaand mation, as the most clean-cu- t workable of any yet considered. Mr. Page conferred with Utah officials in Salt Lake City last wek. Another Utah project, investigation of which has been completed by the state engineer and the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation, and which is now being considered for approval by Commissioner Page, is the Price river project including Gooseberry and Scofield reservoirs. Action upon this project is expected in the not distant future, according to officials. It is expected that the bureau of reclamation will submit in the very near future, Mr. Humphreys said, reports of investigations on the Woodruff credit project in Rich county; also "Joe's Valley and Miller Flat projects in Emery county.
