" Western Migration Most of our western states are confronted with an ever-ijicreasing ever-ijicreasing problem -of -'relief" for newcomers. Western migration mi-gration of indigent people in search of "something better" is creating an extraordinary heavy burden throughout the west. The west isAmerica's frontier and it will naturally attract at-tract peopje seeking a new start in life. Our farms, scenery, climate, fine roatds, and industry will continue to attract homeseekers. Governor Olson of California reports that his state now has 275,000 applicants for state relief who have not been provided or. Thesarne condition on a smaller scale is true in Utah and other western states. Thrufmt history movements of population always have been westward, and even though many western states have warned eastern and mid-west people that no jobs are availably avail-ably here still the jparade moves on. It will be difficult to jltpp this present movement' and unemployment and relief problems will become more acute. It would seem that this far-reaching problem deserves federal investigation as regards indigent relief problems in western . states. It is apparent that these people see little hope in their home communities or there would be little excuse ex-cuse for their leaving. While it is important not to encourage encour-age people to become "transients," it is possible that many see new hope in the west. From a national relief standpoint it will cost no more and perhaps less to administer temporary -relief to these people in the west than in any other part of the country, A federal investigation mght prove this situation situ-ation to be true and additional federal aid could be extended states burdened with this problem during the adjustment period. What Price Sanctions? When a group of Americans pickets tlfe German or Russian Rus-sian consulate, that obviously is a move toward war And if this nation was to apply economic sanctions toward to-ward other countries, the effect would be to force us into war. That is the warning which wise old Senator Borah gives congress, following the speech in which Roosevelt threatened threat-ened the dictators. Borah, as an elder statesman and sincere advocate of peace, has seen how America entered two wars in the last half century. He saw the jingo spirit whipped up to fever heat so that we entered a war of conquest for the Philippines ; he caw us dragged into the world war by the propaganda mills Df Europe which turned out the greatest misstatement of modern times by calling it "the war to end war." Sanctions are a challenge to war. Japanese, for instance, in-stance, are making personal sacrifices and believe they are fighting a "holy war" in China. Whether they are right or not is not the question the thingis that they BELIEVE they are right, and when we vouidtell them they are wrong, they feel we are siding with their foe and became fighting mad. j u Our only hope Tor peace, as both Senator Borah and Senator Homer Bone have pointed out, is STRICT NEUTRALITY NEU-TRALITY and an arms embargo toward BOTH sides in any Qld World conflict. i . ,Our peace and our homes are too precious to trade for any War, except that of defense. r it: yea. let him and lay mine honour in the 'I Carry a Knife' souL and take QTJTOTJY7AY; THCTS 'TH LATEST THIN& IN STREAM UN Et t-ATHES.

S- Grant was not often given to witty sayings, and few of them have been passed down. However, there was one time when he did leave a witty morsel without with-out knowing it. There was a gathering, gath-ering, at which Grant was present, and talk turned to some prominent figures of the- day. Someone re-1 marked that Sumner did not believe be-lieve in the Bible. "Why should he' casually queried Grant, "he did not write it."

But she wanted passionately for her to understand, and she knew she never would. Then Marvel said, "I don't in tend to stand out nere and make a scene. Get in my car, Dwight. Drive to the house. Judy, follow us. I want to speak to you, too." "Maybe I'd better go home " Marvel's eyes snapped. "No. You're not going to sneak out of this. You wouldn't want me to broadcast it over the station that I found you two together, would you? That wouldn't do you any good. Better follow us." She got into her own car, and Dwight silently followed her. When he had started down the drive, Judy put her clutch in and shifted to first What did Marvel want with her? In a few minutes the strange procession stopped in the driveway of the white house. Marvel fumbled fum-bled in her handbag for the key, handed it to Dwight. Judy looked around the living room. The dust was thick on the glass tables, and curls of it rolled on the bare floors with their bold patterns. The blinds were drawn, there was a closed, choking air-lessness air-lessness about the house. As if no one had lived in it a long time. Since Marvel had left for Bremerton, Bremer-ton, it had been shut up. TUDY sat down in one of the low, angled chairs. Marvel lit a cigaret. "Sit down, Dwight," she said. Then she leaned-forward, "We're going to get to the bottom of this thing. I'm not going to do any hysterical, accusing, and Dwight, you can just swallow anything you want to say about Gary Tennant. I could have married him long before be-fore I- ever saw you, and I didn't." Judy thought, looking st her, that Marvel had never looked so weary. It was as if she were even too tired to put on her usual display dis-play of temper. She was simply hard, flint hard. She had a job to do, and she was doing it.

I tried to fight it. Maybe I lost. That's what I want to know. Are you going to marry her when I divorce yoU?" Judy squirmed at the cold, matter-of-fact question. She cried quickly, "Please, Mrs. Campbell! You don't understand! I'm engaged en-gaged to Jack Hanley. I I dn't love Dwight. Oh, you're wrong! You're wrong." She pleaded for understanding, her eyes on Marvel's Mar-vel's still face. 'Til admit when you first came I was hint. I I was foolish. I thought I 'thought I cared for Dwight. But now, I know better". Oh, I can't begin to tell you, it's all so plain now! There was never anything real between be-tween us. It was hard, to let go the dream I'd had, don't you see? But that's all it was. . A dream." CUDDENLY, as she watched Mar vel's face, from some deep well of intuition inside her, Judy knew that Marvel wasn't as cold as she tried to appear. She was suffer ing. Her eyes filled with pain, and her hand, holding the cig aret, trembled. Judy was talking rapidly, trying desperately to explain the neb ulous and only half-though t-o't emotions which had swamped her. "Dwight didn't ever love me. Even now, he only wanted to see me because, he was lonely and hurt. I felt soriy for him. Oh, I could see I fell you, I could feel how lost he was. He he loved you. Mrs. Campbell. It wouldn't have hit him so hard if he didn't. That's the only reason he turned to me. He didnt talk about me he poured out his woes, and spoke always al-ways of you!" . .
