But Mr. Pearson just came up with a plan for dealing with 'hostile' Russians which is a leaf from Brigham Young's note-book. In a letter to Stuart Symington, secretary for air, Mr. Pearson suggested that we use our fleet of B-29 bombers bomb-ers to drop, not bombs on the Russians but packages of merchandise, and a message of good will from the people of America and he proposed a plan for doing it at no cost to the (government. A Los Angeles firm, according to Mr. Pearson, has agreed to furnish a million bars of soap; the Schutter candy people will furnish a million candy bars; Iiteer-solls Iiteer-solls will furnish a huge quantity of watches; and an Ohio man has volunteered to furnish the printing for the message. Soap, candy, 'a watch and a message those things are priceless to the Russian, as they are to most Europeans, Europ-eans, and we believe there is hardly a limit to the good things which would be contributed gladly to show the Russian people that we Americans hold only good will toward them. Is there anything else that can show our - true feelings as well ? As Mr Pearson has said : "As long as the Russian government has no senate, no. congress, and most important im-portant of all, no public opinion to hold the check-rein on the Kremlin, our only common-sense policy is to get to the Russian people ourselves with the truth. ' Of course there are practical problems : the packages would have to be dropped from the Russian frontier, and balloons would be required to carry them the hundreds of miles to the interior of Russia. You practical folk will call the plan fantastic, and we agree that it is, but it isn't so fantastic as a bazooka, or an atomic bomb. It is our complaint that the political plans for an atomic world as shaped by our statesmen are not fantastic enough!. The only way to catch up with atomic energy is with political energy, generated by people, millions of people, who dare to try things who dare to be called foolish for a cause. It's a feeling of ours that unless we extend ourselves toward the fantastic in the field of human relations, we'll be the victims of our own fantastic machines. Of one thing we feel certain: This method of preserving pres-erving peace we're now embarking on, i. e. building a peace-time army, navy and air force, is a sure way of dividing the world it's the traditional way to insure a war. ( I prove a tractor ) FOR 20 YEARS, ( AND ONLY HAD ONE ACCIDENT ! J SAFETY WIK W July 25-31. 1948 ..., IT WAS A NICE DREAM, WHILE IT LASTED We thought they were in the bag those two and one-half miles of State Street curb and gutter, with curb to curb paying. Two months ago there was almost 100 percent atgreement among property owners along the highway. Nearly all believed that the job could be safely financed and were willing to do their share, i.e. pay for the curb and gutter by thVf ront foot while the state surfaced the highway from curb to curb. After last Friday's closed city council meeting, at which the problem was discussed, came the announcement announce-ment that due to objections by parties in both the north and the south sections of the city, the plan would have to be abandoned. In creased property taxes on highway property had made the plan unfeasible, according to. tre announcement. We're not in 'a position' to question the wisdom of the decision, but our reaction is that the curb-gutter-paving program is a wonderful opportunity, being missed; and we hardly see the necessity for making decisions on such problems in closed meetings.

Hi, Folks, t piims vou know I'm not lazy just hate to work. There's a time for work and a time ior play, etc .Hmmmph! I hope my good mother doesn't read this it was her philosophy when I was a child "that if you weren't a good worker your chances of going to heaven were very slim!" The Lord made the wnriH in six davs and rested on the seventh we are to do likewise, like-wise, that is if you're not a mother moth-er or grandmother. It seems He did leave out these two classes of individuals, twist it any way you like, a family just doesn't go non-existent through Sunday while mother rests. Probably the work we do isn't considered "work" by the knowing minds. If Mother is Lucky She may get to go to Sunday School, once in a blue moon it's relaxing t just sit there and listen lis-ten to the organ and Jet your mind ake flight. In Heaven there won't be dishes, meals and beds to make, on Sunday at any rate. Still and all if you can't play a harp, it could be so the beds and such. So here you are at Sunday School and they can not deny you this hour and a half of relaxation. Then you come back to the present and the organ is pealing the old re frain "Today. Today, work while we may, there is no to morrow, but only today." He Always kept the Sabbaih As a child I remembered him well, a man who always kept the Sabbath to a "T". His wife and children milked the cows and did the separating long before be-fore breakfast, before the sun appeared over the tall mountains mount-ains that surround Utah Valley but they did this every day. AW the work was done by the time the? sat dawn to breakfast. break-fast. On Fast Sunday they all fasted and this gafe the family more time to prepare for Sunday Sun-day School one day a month. In all solemnness he blessed the food, while we girls silently figeted, for in an adjoining bedroom bed-room the coaloil lamp was burning, burn-ing, and a pair of curling iron handles. Then he looked up at us, stroked his long beard, and said, "You may be excused to primp. Mind you, be ready when the surrey is." We silently stole away to make ourselves pretty, for we were of that age then. After Sunday school, Sarah and I would take the cows out to grass, along the ditch banks, while her father sat in a- ham mock and read from the Bible The mother prepared a banquet of a Sunday dinner there was always a lot of company. I was always grateful for their hospit ality and volunteered to wash the Sunday dishes perhaps that SF0TLIGIITIHG UTAH si Our entire organization is built on the principle that jwu the customer are entitled to full value for every dollar you spend with us for automobiles, accessories and service.

VINCENT Manti Clothing Plant lo Operate During the five years that the clothing plant at Manti operated, first as a Government parachute factory and later as a clothing manufacturing plant by the Re liance Manufacturing Company, more than three hundred per sons in the Manti area acquired a definite skill in this type of work. Since the Reliance Com pany has ceased operations, the State of Utah, who vowns the plant, has been looking for an organization to operate the plant using the skilled help available in the Manti area. Announcement has just been made that the plant will be leased by the State on a 15-year basis to the Bo Jack Manufact uring Corporation and the Kingston King-ston Corporation who manuiact-ure manuiact-ure apparel and uniforms for the Army and Navy. On his many trips east, Governor Herbert B. Maw has acted as contact agent and has induced these organiz ations to establish their plants at Manti utilizing the skilled labor la-bor available. Funds from the State Department of Publicity and Industrial Development will purchase the equipment (now owned by Reliance) and both the building and equipment will be leased to the new organizations organ-izations at the rate of $200.00 per month for the building and !)zuu.U0 per month for the equip ment. the operation of the Diant will again establish a permanent payroll and will bring business into the area which will amount to hundreds of thousands of dol lars annually. ' Forest Receipts at $1,500,000.00 Utah contributed substantially substantial-ly to the million and a half doll ars received by the forest in the intermountain states during . the tiscal year just ended. i The major receipts are horn timber sales ($879,121) and graz ing tees ($d3d,2o2). Other sour ces of revenue are from Christ mas tree sales, land use and rent' als, power, and timber and grazing trespass. federal income from Utah forests amounts to $481,055; Idaho forests $616,640; Nevada, $105,819 and Wyoming, $115, 272. The revenue for the 1948 fiscal year of $1,500,000 exceed ed the 1947 year which amount ed to $1,225,704. Infant and Mortality Death Hates Low in Utah A report from the U. S. Children's Child-ren's Bureau, Washington, D. C, puts Utah in a favorable position posit-ion compared with other states in infant and maternal mortality mortal-ity death rates. Infant death rates in the various states ranged rang-ed from 30 per 1000 to 47 per 1000. Utah stood in the fourth lowest position with an infant death rate of 31.9 per 1000. Mat-is Mat-is one reason I was invited to their place so often. Their girls have remained my good friends all these years. Their hardworking hard-working mother passed away some 30 years ago the father is still in excellent health, and a very enlightened old man. It Was the First Doubt I had of mother's philosophy, "an idle brain is the devil's workshop, etc". I was there when the good woman passed a-way. a-way. Dr. Aird was heard to say "she died before her time, from overwork." I didn't stay to hear any more- I ran out into the orchard or-chard and buried my face in the grass and cried as hard as Sarah. Years have passed and I have grown in wisdom. By degrees de-grees I am getting the kinks straightened out of my mind. My deductions are those of my mother. "One of the great disappointments dis-appointments of my life was the discovery that the key to success succ-ess is work" a body intact, without initiative is of little value in the world of mental grown-ups. I preach the "work philosophy" to my children 4d grandchildren and they look at me as I did my mother when I was very young as if to say, "I am not Lazy just hate to work."

But not Ma Hoskins, who returned the clipping to me with "John Alden" on it. She recognized all the clues including that reference refer-ence to ."beer" and "cooper." For Ma who's read her history, knows that beer as the beverage of moderation, is as old in this land of ours as the never-ending American Ameri-can search for tolerance which brought the Pilgrims over to this country in the first place.
