Show Flt Two UTAH VALLEY NEWS made toward subduing the earth". Nevertheless we are faced yet with inexorable and relentless nature doing her will upon us in the form of hurricanes and cyclones, devastating floods, earthquakes, and drought. We see the blinding, suffocating dust storms sweep the dust bowl" of America and we stand helpless. Is America to become another Gobi or Sahara, where todays excavations prove them the burial ground of vast civilizations, equally as great as our own? Again, as we study the problem a little deeper, we see mans own folly at work in bringing about these evils at which we stand aghast. Our floods are the result of our denuding the hills of their forest growth. Our dust storms follow our greediness in extracing from the top soils every available dollar In wheat and other soil depleting crops. Our famine and pestilence and dire poverty come entirely from mans inhumanity to man, for nature is prolific and abundant in her resources-Onlman is the tyrant, and his heartlessness toward his fellows has brought on these evils. What is needed is for man to concentrate on his own war against disease, ignorance, famine, greed, and other enemies which prevent him from subduing the earth". See how he has overcome time and "distance" by radio and airplane. Is it too much to expect that man shall ultimately control the earth as he does now the greenhouse, and be able to stride from one part of it to the other within a day, and direct and regulate its forces and its powers as he now controls the electric current which supplies his every day needs for light, power and heat? obOnly "war however can help him reach such cona toward directed be must war But the jectives. quest of nature, rather than toward for the next war of man against man, according to the scientists, spells destruction to civilization.

Man has always fought his own kind, often led like sheep to the slaughter, to fight each other over questions they never understood or really had any interest in, such as land, or empire sought by some ruling geniuB; or some Cleopatra whose whims turned from one conqueror to the other; or over some idea, religious or philosophical. Whatever it is or has been, man is always the dupe, and has been moved about as checkers on the checker board by the directing war lords. In the beginning" man was given dominion over the earth, and told to multiply and replenish it, and subdue it". It seems to us there is the real war. Why cannot man understand that his sphere is a higher one than the wild animals, and leave off fighting each other to turn his attention to the real contest of life the fight against disease, floods, drought, winds, and all the violent manifestatina of nature? TTue, we have gone a long way in this very type of fighting.
