Not only are railroads now handicapped by duplicating lines and truck oompett-tlobut their expenses are being boosted $70,000,000 this year by the railroad retirement act of 1937, Most suggested remedial legislation calls for (l) government subsidies under the guise of national defense, and (3) government loans to help railroads modernize equipment and extend their lines.

Borah promise to oppose the plan. The U. S. and Great Britain are meanwhile taking a lead in consummation of tha Jewish solution first proposed by Joseph P. Kennedy, U. S. ambassador to London. While Great Britain is surveying her colonies to find new homes for Jews, the state department has commissioned Myron C.

American Jews ara voluntarily digging up 100 million dollars to finance the project if England can provide land for resettlement purposes. The most likely spot is British Guiana, in South America, where Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain hopes to set aside 10,000 square miles. But Germany is not Although George Rublee, director of the international committee, has offered to discuss tho Jew question with Berlin, he has received no definite reply. Preferring to ignnre tha U.

This win probably win popular favor, but railroad executives are not likely to look upon new government loans as a cure for their ailment At best borrowing will only provide a temporary cure, piling up additional obligations without attempting to solve basic transportation problems.

The answer denies every charge made by the United States concerning Japanese violation of the "open door" to China and asks Washington to take into consideration the new situation in east Asia. Although Japan courts maintain that a contract is invalidated by changing circumstances, the United States cannot agree that a strictly Japanese legal tenet should be applied to international law. The answer makes no mention of the 1933 nine power pact guaranteeing Chinas territorial integrity, but under Japans new changing conditions" philosophy it would seem that all previous International commitments have been thrown overboard. Consequently there appears to be no American recourse other than to accept Japan's domination of China.

To strengten democracy in this country and make it something that the people w ill gladly rally to, tho government must get closer to the principles of Thomas Jefferson, one of the ideal democrats of all time. Drawing away from democracy leads nations to tyranny and oppression. Man. says Jefferson , is the only animal which devours his own kind; for I can ap ply no milder term to the governments of Europe and to the general pey of the rich on the poor The aristocratic, tory-lik- e wealthy and influential classes are not always in the right when it comes to the progress of humanity. They are making much noise today and most if not all of them are pitted like a stone wall against the changes for the better that have come about. According Wm E. Gladstone, they are wrong, and have been wrong for a century or more. He said: In the great political and social controversies, the leisured classes, educated classes, have been in the wrong. In a fight for Peace, here are some of the foundations that must be laid: Religion, good and inspiring as it is, must be further spiritualized and removed from the commercialism in which it is steeped. Try as it may, it can never bring world peace so long as it is mired in the profit system. A new system of economy mast be set up. The causes of war are economic and these must be removed. A new cl of leaders most be raised up to do this. Greed and corruption in private and public life must.be rooted out. Politics must be changed from the dribble of present cammust paigns to something better and higher. Democracy in preference be perfected and made inviting and desirable to dictatorships. There must be great Cooperative and Got lective efforts for humanity as a whole. There must be World Courts set up in which nations must settle their differences as individuals settle theirs. People must get back to the Bible. q said on the best of authority that there are five times of families as many infants snd "mall children die in the homes with homes in are with an income of $1,000 or less than there born babies million one $3,000 incomes.

OBSERVATIONS ON TIMELY SUBJECTS BIG GATES SWING ON LITTLE HINGES Copyright CULLS By the President. Salt Lake City Townsend Club No. 1. On the street one day last weak, Joe Bush and me were talking to a young businessman one of the 2nd generation of his name in the State of Utah the Son of a Pioneer. Among other things he made the observation that The country, the United states of America, Utah included was being run by the culls of the country. That observation we suppose would include President Roosevelt, Governor Blood, Attorney General Joseph Chez, United States Senator Thomas, Congressman Abe Murdock, Dr. Townsend and all others who are persona non grata to the observer as Culls. According to the observer he specifically included all who for some reason or other have hit the toboggan and wlto now in there declining years, their ability to hold their own in the business worldir find employment and hold it, find themselves in need and because that need is recognized by an administration that can see around a dollar and see the value in a member of the human family, therefore, the country is in the hands of the culls. According to the observer he specifically included all or in a CCC camp is a cull; anyone on the WPA who accepts help from the nation the state or the church is a cull while those who grind out the lives of the poor and live on 10 per cent of the widows mite are admitted into courts of the mighty, their reward a crown and a seat in the holy of holys. It is interesting to look back over the pages of history and note what has been done when Governments were taken over by the Culls. When our Government was founded the royalists were satisfied to Let well enough alone" ; but rau-x-izieiiiy, one 01 me leaaers of I he Radicals" startled even the radicals when he said, Ceaser had his Brutus Charles the first his Cromwell and George the III may profit by their example was Abraham Lincoln coming up from the grass-roo-ts hooted at, bood, burned in effigy by the aristocracy of hij, age. Why, because he would free the slaves, the culls of the south. The man of Galilee who went about doing good who gave his strength to the weak his substance to the poor his sympathy to the suffering maybe he never was referred to as a cull but action sometimes speaks louder than words and they, the proud and arrogant leaders of the church ancT state of his day did nail him to a cross between two thieves, who would in the words of the observer be classed as culls. Ihe writer has no knowledge of what the holier than thou called the Utah Pioners as they killed their leaders, drove those of the Mormon faith from the Mississippi valley states into the desert of the then uncharted west, but whatever it was the Mormons were treated as culls. The American people of today are told by all the means of communication there are, that we are headed for a dictatorship every farmer, every laboringman, every businessman, every young man who would build an industry, every sheepman, every cattleman, every young man in search of a college education, every young lawyer and doctor with a degree, every young man and woman who would marry and build a home, every banker knows full well that this country has long had a dictator and his name is Dollar BilL And because the Government of the United States of America, would help the people of the republic to strike the hackle that the Dollar Bill has enslaved them with they are called culls by those who for the moment are free of the dictates of the most relentless, exacting, heartless dictator the world has ever known, and because the people and the admiqistration would unseat the dictatorship of Dollar Bill they are refered to as culls. In the words of Patrick Henry What is it that Gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery Forbid it All Mighty God. And quoting Moroni s 2nd epistle, Chapter 6CL verse 63, page 252 from the book of Mormon, I quote, Behold, I am Moroni your Chief Captain, I seek not for power, but to pull it down. I seek not for honor of the world, but for the glory of my God, and the freedom and the wellfare of my country. I am not of the Mormon faith, but I would like to write that quotation not only on the rocks of the everlasting hills, but write it deep into the hearts of the people of my country. I would like to write it over the mantel of the homes of my country where mothers build their alters and teach their children reverence to God and loyality to country, I would like to write it in letters of fire on the pulpits of Priests and Ministers in churches where they preach God and worship u. Mammon. . Whoso mockeths the poor reproaches his maker and he that is glad at calamities shall not go unpunished Proverbs Chapter 17, verse 5. FOR THESE WE ARE TLY tHANKFUL |
