Show COMMENT ON THE NEWS ' i-4 OTP T 1 :- PUNITIVE EXPEDITION Japan's invasion of China may be likened to the United States' punitive expedition into Mexico a few years ago with the difference, of course, that the Chinese fight in the open to a great extent, and villages and towns take the place of mesquite and sand dunes. But the same publicized reason, suppression of bandits, is given. And, at the rate the invaders are killing off the Chinese "bandits," thousands at a crack, the punitive expedition appears to be" getting results. It isn't going to be necessary for Japan to officially declare war.

President Roosevelt apparently has started something. The only thing which bothers us new is where will it end? Everyone, quite naturally, is expecting it will be for the better. That is about the only direction in which anything can go anymore. M . . WILL ROGERS PANICKY Even Will Rogers got a little panicky the other day when it was announced the United States had forsaken its standard of gold, and referred knowingly to Roosevelt's campaign promises. But he was back to normal the next morning and admitted that while he didn't understand it, he was willing to go along with the rest of us. We thought he would. TEACHERS WANT THEIR PAY Chicago, site of the approaching "Century of Progress" spectacle, has some cleanup work to do if the word "progress" is to hold any actual meaning. That city's teachers have not been paid in a year and a half. If that be a sample of Chicago's progress during the last 100 years, then we'll all be millionaires when the depression ends. If one is inclined to be the least optimistic, developments the past week or two, local as well as national, are decidedly encouraging. However, it is apparent at this time that while prosperity is preparing to turn the corner she evidently isn't going to do it on two wheels. MODIFIED COAL PRODUCTION SCHEDULE Reports available from mines at this time indicate that shipments of coal during several weeks past, mostly slack coal, are showing a substantial gain as compared with last year. Noticeable, also, is the fact that the large mountains of slack coal so common at the mines only a short time ago now are almost depleted and unless production is maintained during the summer the customary fall demand for slack will not be met. The Journal understands that most of the mines will endeavor to continue production thruout the summer on a modified scale, altho there still exists possibility of shutdowns on one or two of the smaller mines. SMELTERS ARE BUYING COAL Coal shipments over the local rails show an apparent increase and it is reported that some of the copper and silver mines and smelters are beginning to purchase small tonnage. ' Prices in the stocks and bonds markets are showing a healthy upward trend and the public is justified in feeling that the long looked for upward turn is approaching. Local Drug Policies BUY AT HOME Our Thanks to the Band Friends o, SEND THE BANDS TO THE CHICAGO FAIR bands chosen to represent the State of Utah at the World's fair come from Carbon county is an honor the people of this vicinity cannot afford to overlook. These bands must go to Chicago. There are many ways in which the money can be raised to send the bands to the fair, and they probably will be utilized. But it appears now that the county commissioners and the county school board will be asked to raise the greater portion. We believe there would be little, if any, protest against such a diversion of county funds, as the honor is one which would bring credit to every citizen of our county. The band students well have earned this crowning honor; it is up to the public of Carbon county to see that they are rewarded. On to Chicago! Because of the high honors won by the Carbon county high school and Helper junior high school bands at the state contests held in Logan last week, these two bands now are entitled to attend the Century of Progress fair to be held in Chicago this summer representing the State of Utah, together with the winners of like contests in other states of the nation. The Journal is informed that the total cost of sending the two bands to Chicago, including private cars in which to make their home while in the eastern city, would approximate $7500. Of this amount, there exists a possibility some may be secured from certain state educational funds. The balance probably will have to be raised at home. The fact that the two , PRICE FIVE CENTS GIRL IS MISSING At a late hour last night searching parties still were hunting for Marcia, the three year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. F. of Price. The tot disappeared Thursday afternoon and could not be found. Later the child's hut and coat were found near the Price canal, causing fear she might have fallen in and been drowned. The canal and stor- age ponds were drained last evening in the search, but no word of discovery was to be had at the time of going to press. Plain, honest facts sometimes are not appreciated by some, but The Journal believes the time has arrived when local people should be apprised of the manner in which the local drug stores con duct their businesses and handle sales. Helper has two very fine local the drug stores, home-owne- d Helper Drug company, and the Greenhalgh pharmacy. And then, we have one of the branches of outfit. the Schramm-Johnso- n d stores where In our service to the public is of greater importance than the small profit which may be gained by slipping customers gyp brands of merchandise, one may be certain of securing reliable brands. Schramm-Johnsotoo, stocks certain reliable brands of merchandise but, did you ever try to buy any of them after they had advertised them with handbills printed over the hill and paid for with good Helper money? Did the clerk get for you the article you requested, or did he make serious effort to sell you some other brand which he thot nicknamed was just as good "long-shostuff by employes because it carries a long profit and brings warming compliment from headquarters when a sufficient amount is unloaded. It is said that Scram employes are required to sell a certain "long-shoamount of this stuff if they wish to retain their popularity with the company an amount which it is understood must represent a specified portion of that employes average sales. That possibly is one of the reasons why the scram outfit seemingly does not encourage its employes to take too great a part in civic life. Interest in community activities causes one to make friends and one hates to sell long shot stuff to friends. We would, of course, rather see our townspeople spend their money d with the drug stores, but if for some unexplainable reason they must patronize Scram's just watch the next time and see whether the clerk graciously hands you the nationally advertised brand which you ask for, or whether he waves two or three d varieties In your face and tries to sell you one of them. That puts the scram employes on the spot: If they sell a lot of the standard stuff and too little of n, t" home-owne- The M M will hold a track meet Friday of next week, May 5, at the Kiwanis athletic field in Price, commencing at 1 o'clock, according to Dean Nielsen of Helper.

BUY LOCAL TEAM HAS A STRONG LINEUP AND IS OUT TO WIN BOTH GAMES SUNDAY er BUY R Carbon county's rating as the home of exceptionally talented young musicians was given another boost last week when four of the school bands from this county walked away with many high honors, and Helper junior high and Carbon high received ratings that entitle them to attend the national contests which will be held in Chicago during the Century of Progress fair this summer. With Helper taking first place in the class D contests at Logan, A. B. Caseman, director of the local band, again has demonstrated his ability to develop junior musical talent and, with the students, should be given much credit for the very excellent showing the band has made this season. Principal W. H. Wardell, who also has taken a very active interest in the Helper school band, has expressed his appreciation of the fine courtesy and spirit shown by local organizations and individuals thru the raising of funds and the furnishing of cars with which to send the band to Logan. While much time and space could be used in lauding the splendid achievements of Carbon county school bands in the Price and Logan contests, we believe a simple recounting of their wins will speak for themselves. Last week we published the winners of the band, parade and drum major contests at Price; in this issue we give the local solo contest winners in the intermountain contest, and the Carbon county winners in all contests at Logan: Helper Junior High School At Price Winners in solo division: Baritones, Burke Berry; saxophone, Jimmy Keisbergen; french horn, John Malecker; drums, Jimmy Jouflas; trombones, Ben Neme-nicscusaphone, Joe Biondich; clarinets, Donna Lou Wardell and Norma Laboroi.

She will be committed to the state hospital for insane and th" nation rejoices with her in her Victory. Not because she is entitled to one iota of sympathy but because a wise nation knew there must be some legal loophole thru which she could escape the penalty for her crime, and wanted to see her win to prove their contentions. The farcial angle to the whole thing is that dread of her approaching execution caused her to become mentally unbalanced, altho it is agreed she was sane when the crime was committed. Thus, she is entitled to clemency and a precedent is established for future murderers.
