This is a threat we are facing today. Conditions are such at the present time that control of fires would be extremely difficult were they to start.

The results of fire are loss of timber, loss of grazing, damage by floods and erosion, death to game birds, fish and other wild life, and in too many cases, loss of human life. 90 per cent of the fires which occur are caused by man and in each case there remains for many years a desolate black scar as a monument to someones carelessness. will soon be upon be going to the will us and many as Used Seat Flatboat County The seat of Bolivar county, Mis mountains and streams for recreasi'sippi, used to be on a Mississippi tion and forest use.

A delegation from Arcadia, headed by Lynn Rosa, asked the commissioners for use of the No. 90 grader on the road to Ah thro mountain to open up an area for1 wood hauling. The commissioners granted the request and the grader will be put on the road within a short time it was promised. To Investigate Roads Another group of taxpayers asked for some attention to the Red Creek and Strawberry roads. The commissioners will go to this section Friday to look over the situation to see what can be done.

A motion was passed at the request of the Arcadia delegation to authorize the payment of $50.00 to the Clark clinic for medical care for Mrs. John Taylor of Arcadia.

Reuben Clark, Jr., speaking at the University of Utah Institute of Public Affairs, held annually in connection with the summer session. "Our navy is over in China, and there is always danger when there is trouble in foreign countries and our navy is present. Mr. Clark former undersecretary of state and former ambassador to Mexico is now first counselor in the first presidency in the L. D. S. church. "From all signs about us we are on the very brink of war, he told the university audience, with particular reference to the far east. He explained the war in China is a war de facto (in fact) although not a war "de juri (by virture o'f law.) The war hinges on the United States, Mr. Clark said. France is reluctant. The British are waiting. If we come to clash with Japan in the East, we can very easily, without action of Congress, have a de facto war, quickly to become a de juri war. If we go to war we are almost sure to be joined by Britain and France, and then Germany and Italy would join Japan. That would mean war in Europe as well as the East, and it could blossom out into a first class European Bn A son was bom Thursday, July and Mrs. Dean Mitchell of Upalco.
