Two Ford Anniversaries ft ' FRANCE REFUSES to pay anything, any-thing, Poland refuses to pay anything, any-thing, England instead of $75,000,-000 $75,000,-000 will play $10,000,000, In silver, and get credit for fifty cents an ounce, although silver is worth only thirty five cents. And that Is the grand total of our grand "foreign debt collecting enterprise." Uncle Sam must remind himself of the criminal standing on the gallows gal-lows with the rope around his neck, asked if he had anything to say, and replying, "Yes, I want to say that this will be a lesson to me as long as I live." Europe is "very sorry" she can't pay what she owes, but is generous gener-ous with good advice, especially concerning our own money. Foreign countries will fix a price at which our dollar shall be "pegged" compared with the British Brit-ish pound, and we are quite docile about it'. Meanwhile, England is accumulating accumu-lating more gold and France aids constantly to her supply: England's gold reserve has risen to one hundred and eighty eight million two hundred and forty-five thousand pounds. A good deal o gold. France has three billion two hundred and forty-fcur million dollars dol-lars worth of gold in her yaults.

That made it asy to pay off the French internal debt, and to pay Englishmen that bought French "franc bdnd3" at the old price.

SEARCH AWAITS C AID Hi 1illV NOME, Alaska, June 17 (U.R) Hope for the safety of James Mattern, round the world flier believed be-lieved down somewhere in the remote re-mote Bering Sea area, was not abandoned by airmen today. Because of dense fogs and clouds, an organized search for the Texas aviator, who left Khabarovsk, Khaba-rovsk, Siberia, for Nome Wednesday; Wednes-day; appeared unlikely for several days. Two coast guard cutters searched Bering Sea, however. Airman heie believed Mattern landeu on one of the Aleutian chain of islands or an an island in the Bering Sea. They said he could live in safety with natives for weeks before establishing communication com-munication with the outside world. Mattern's route up the Kamchatka Kamchat-ka Peninsula and then over the Bering Sea was considered one of the most dangerous in the Arctic. 66 WORKERS TO ENTER CAMPS Sixty-six men who registered for work in the civilian forest conservation conser-vation camps have been ordered to report for physical examinations at the city and county building, Monday morning, according- to W.

Pleasant Grove is sparing no work to make the festival this year equal or surpass that of any other former celebration. The fact that the bill of free fare has been increased from a dish of strawberries straw-berries and cream to shortcake, is an indicator of what is being done in all branches of the big festival.

W. Robinson, who returned to Provo Saturday from Washington. Delighted To Return Expressing his delight at being back in Provo after a strenuous three months special session ' of congress, Congressman Robinson declared his willingness to co-operate in every way with state and local officers to secure the maximum maxi-mum benefits from the public recovery re-covery legislation for this state. He will resume his law practice with his brother, J. Robert Robinson, Robin-son, to remain here until the beginning be-ginning of the regular session of congress, which convenes in January, Janu-ary, 1934. Mr. Robinson was in the thick of congressional activities during the session, and saw service on three important western committees, commit-tees, the first time a western congressman con-gressman has been placed on all three. The committees to which! he gained appointment were those! j on public lands, roads, irrigation j and reclamation. ! hrinlyt HrirflnlM 'Vrvur ! "Farmers and municipalities from Provo to Salt Lake City who expect to share in the water from the Deer Creek project should begin be-gin at once to organize and dispose of the legal requirements, so that early Construction can commence," said Mr. Robinson, Saturday. "We all know what advantages would accrue to this section of the state if we were expending eight or nine million dollars in Provo canyon." In regard to a new postoffice building for Provo, the congressman congress-man expressed the conviction that if Provo interests united at once pn a site and made the proper showing, construction work would be authorized with little delay on such a building. Mr. Robinson estimated that Utah stands a chance, if the proper cooperation is shown, of receiving from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 for local projects. Road projects, including in-cluding liberal appropriations for the Utah national parks, were also taken care of in the bill, he said. Fought For the West The Provoan had a wonderful opportunity to put in some hard licks for the west, when he fought for the retention of the old allocation alloca-tion on the federal road funds. The compromise which was finally effected brought hundreds of thousands thou-sands of dollars additional to this state. On most legislation, Mr. Robinson Robin-son stood by the president, realizing realiz-ing that this was an emergency in which leadership was necessary. .
