NEFF SMART, Editor and Publisher Entered as second class matter November 19. 1937 at the postoffice at Orem, Utah, under the act of March 8, 1879. MEMBER: Utah State Press Association Subscription Rates: One year, strictly In advance $3 00 Six Months $2.00 CURB TO CURB . . . Announcement by the state road commission that the widening of U. S. 91 from the north to the south limits of Orem during 1948 is to be a project of the state, is hailed by every Orem resident. The project is one which the chamber of commerce, the city council, the Lions club and the Jaycees have been advocating for a long time. It will solve, for vehicles at least, a serious traffic bottleneck and hazard. For pedestrian shoppers, however, we suspect that life will become increasingly increas-ingly tenuous when the four lanes extend through the city. However, there are other aspects of the announced highway program which should be studied and discussed immediately. Mayor Gillman has said that the state has aigreed to pave the highway from curb to. curb, if there are curbs and gutters. That's an offer which Orem might well capitalize on. Few things, we think, could sell Orem so completely well to the traveler or to our neighbors as five miles of well-groomed well-groomed highway, paved and clean from curb to -curb, with our orchards, homes and business houses, polished up a little, to provide a landscaping. We believe that such a "boulevard," along with a traffic light or two, would make motorists willing to "take it easy" through Orem. And it would make Orem famous for what it is: the richest fruit section in the state, and the home of Geneva Steel. Let's talk it over with our neighbors, the city council, the Lions, the chamber of commerce and the Jaycees. Perhaps Per-haps there a way to curb and gutter State Street and cash in on the state's agreement to pave our main street the full width. INDEPENDENCE DAY . . . This Fourth of July, the American people should give Aober thought to what the day stands for and to what its implications are in the modern world. Those matters go a great deal deeper than fireworks and Independence Day decorations. We are the only major power left on earth which is independent in the fullest sense. We are independent of domination by. foreign powers and, equally important, with in our own borders our people are independent of dictation or oppression by any ruling class. That is what the American system means and that is the true wealth of this nation. We observe this Independence Day at a time when our economic machine is in high gear, the goal of full employment employ-ment has been pretty, well achieved, and wages are at record levels. There is no want in this country now. Under these conditions, it is a relatively simple master to preserve our institutions and our freedoms. The real test will come when and if major economic dislocations occur, with their depressing de-pressing influences on employment, income, and living standards. stand-ards. In Europe, great economic pressures have always paved the way for dictatorship. Nations have surrendered every human liberty in search of the chimera of bare security. It is to be hoped that the American people never have to choose between this kind of security and liberty. But if the time ever comes when that choise must be made, there should be no question in our minds. We have the privilege of celebrating an Independence Day because the founders of thi3 nation made their choice without hesitation. They chose liberty, and fought for it. If the United States ever loses that spirit, it will lose with it all that the nation represents, regardless of material wealth and resources. If need be, we must stand alone in the entire world as the one power devoted to the doctrine that the purpose of the state is to serve the people and that the rights of man are sacred. v i n e y a n d President of Mrs. Walter Holdaway entertained the members mem-bers of their family at dinner Sunday- Dinner was served to Mr and Mrs. William Facer, Jr., and three daughters of South Gate, Calif-; Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Holadway and family, fam-ily, Mr. and Mrs. Ross Holdaway and family, Mr. and Mrs. Howard How-ard Holaway and Robert Holdaway.
