Associate Edilor Entered as second class matter November 19, 1944 at the postoffice at Orem, Utah, under the ad of March 3. 1897. MEMBER: Utah Slate Press Association National Editorial Association Subscription Rates: One year, in advance $3.00 A RESOLUTION LET'S EXTEND CENTER STREET WHEREAS, the Board of Fire Underwriters has strongly recommended the construction of a road from the Orem City Hall westward to the Geneva Steel plant (Center Street) in order to provide fire protection for a large area of Orem which is not now readily accessible to the fire station. (In order to serve homes directly west of the city hall the fire engine must proceed north to 4th North or South to 4th South before proceeding westward). west-ward). WHEREAS, both 8th South and 4th North streets in Orem are main thoroughfares for Geneva Steel company com-pany traffic, and whereas both these streets are 'school' streets, it would seem wise to divert traffic from these 'school' streets, especially since peak loads of Geneva Steel company traffic correspond closely with peak loads of student pedestrian traffic ; and WHEREAS, property owners on the line of the westward west-ward extension of Center Street have, at one time or another, an-other, with one exception, offered to contribute the land for said street, and the street would cost little except the actual construction cost ; and WHEREAS, the construction of a street from the city hall westward to the Geneva Steel plant could be accomplished, accom-plished, at this time, without movirtg valuable buildings and without the need for condemning property, and whereas such may not be the case if construction is postponed post-poned ; and WHEREAS, a highway westward from the city hall would make accessible for development property which is in the very heart of Orem and thus encourage the development devel-opment of an area which has become a vacuum area of Orem. NOW, be it therefore resolved that the City Council of Orem City take whatever action is necessary to extend Orem's Main street from the City Hall westward to the Geneva Steel company ; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that such action be taken immediately. Orem-Geneva Times IS KOREA WORTH WHILE ? One of the most unfortunate aspects of the debate over Far Eastern policy is the tactic used by some advocates ad-vocates of attacks on China , in emphasizing losses in Korea and intimating that they have gained nothing. Casualties are indeed serious. For those directly involved involv-ed their tragedy is beyond words. But it is not lightened, lighten-ed, it is embittered, by suggestons that the sacrifices are futile. The idealism which launched the United Nations is receiving an acid test in Korea. Nationalistic aims have created tensions; few members have uncomplainingly fulfilled their obligations. Yet an. epochal step has been taken in organizing effective resistance to aggression. We cannot believe this effort was a blunder and the men who engaged in it fools. Nor can we regard it as a failure fail-ure and those who carried the burden as victims. We believe the caause is noble, and that(they tre heroic defenders de-fenders of freedom. Those who believe that extending the war to China woul.d bring an earlier decision and reduce casualties are entitled to make their case. But it should not include in-clude the assumption that current operations in Korea are carried on under excessive disadvantages and ai useless. So long as the Chinese do not use air power a-gainst a-gainst UN bases, supply lines, or ground forces, while UN planes and ships pound their forces, supply lines, and bases on the narrow peninsula, Korea is advantageous advantage-ous ground. Casualties run 15 or 20 to 1 against the enemy. The rate of losses has been declining in Korea. In the last three months before the Red offensive started UN losses were less than half a large as in the first six months when much smaller forces were engaged. The current situation is not a happy one. But it should not be presented as either disastrously disadvantageous or as futile.

How lo Sell the Army On many occasions Utah bus-'nrss bus-'nrss and farm people have written writ-ten me for information on how they should prooceed in selling their products to the Army. The Department of the Army has just released a revised edition edit-ion of its pamphlet" How to Sell to the United States Army." It contains a wealth of information informa-tion for businessmen and farmers. farm-ers. I am sending a limited number of copies to Chambers of Commerce Com-merce in the principal industrial indust-rial and farminig centers in Utah Ut-ah where they will be available. If anyone wishes to obtain a copy, and one is not available at his local Chamber of Commerce, Com-merce, he should write to The Undersecretary of the Army, Procurement Information Center. Cen-ter. Washington 25, D.C. s General MacArihur Issue General MacArthur again is big news in the United States Senate. His appearance before the Foreign Relations and Armed Arm-ed Services Committees of the Senate was marked by bitter debate de-bate on the floor of the Senate over the refusal of the Committees Commit-tees to permit other Senators to attend the hearings. To date the Administration, by filibustering and by one and two vote margins, mar-gins, has succeeded in saying 'io to Republican-sponsored requests re-quests for public sessions- Bipartisanship Bi-partisanship was not apparent on this issue Democrats lined up, with one exception, in support sup-port of the closed hearings, alleging all-eging that our national security would be endangered, while Republicans Re-publicans presented a unanimous unanim-ous front in support of public hearings, feeliing that the people peo-ple were entitled to the full story. As a matter of fact, the question quest-ion of national security becomes a remote issue when one considers con-siders provisions of the espionage espion-age laws. These laws are so broad as to make it a crimnal offense for anyone who has national nat-ional defense documents and information in-formation to communicate or transmit, or even to attempt to communincate or transmit, such information or documents to persons not entitled thereto. These laws- of course, apply to General MacArthur. Even the General must refuse to make public any information where such information is considered classified. Reclamation Funds Out Last week the House cut more Department of Interior appropriation approp-riation for fiscal 1952. This reduction re-duction represents some sizeable cuts in funds for reclamation and funds for the Bureau of Land Managtment. I am not yet aware of the over-all effect of the cuts made by the House. I intend to thoroughly investigate the reductions while the Department's De-partment's bill is before the Senate Appropriations Committee Commit-tee for hearings and study. MY MOTHER'S DAY By Lee Kotrtner She gave me life and spent most of hers teaching me the right way to lead mine. When I go wrong she's the first to advise and the last to accuse. ac-cuse. As if she doesn't have troubles cf her own, she feels slighted if she can't share mine. She doesn't complain when I express ex-press my devotion to her once a year on Mother's Day, but she'd die if she couldn't in some way express hers every day of the year. Mr. and Mrs. Harold Peterson Pet-erson and daughters, Jayne and Kathy, have moved back to Orem Or-em fttr residing in Lindon. They have purchased the Lloyd Pyne home on First North.

They were intelligent, charming, and aliogether too good looking for safety. At heart they are mostly man haters cynical, sophisticated and successful career car-eer gals. Jeri who has been divorced once and is married to a prince, says there's nothing to marriage unless you love the guy and that makes marriage bearable. She is brilliant and rapidly going go-ing up the ladder to great success suc-cess in her chosen field. She has her eye on a star and is willing to climb a step at a time, but reach that star she must. In the meantime, she finds time to rear two wonderful children and be a wife to her prince. Her other marriage . . . ? He was a bum and she fell out of love with him I Doubt if the Average Man Can Cope with Today's Gal Sherri is a helpless blond. Twite divorced. "Men," she says "are a hundred years behind the times, most of them are bustle and hoopskirt era men. Where does a man get the idea he can push the little lady a- round man's ego is all out of proportion. Today's woman is not an 18th century model. And men are gullible. Any simple minded little gal who can wield the baloney is what the men of today are looking for not a square deal or an intelligent wife, etc." Janette, the brunette beauty, tosses her head and laughs, "Men," she says, 'are dears the lambs I love them. But fot uure 'hey don't understand the modern mod-ern gal becauase it is much easier eas-ier to not understand us. After all, we're not so complicated." She laughed deliciously. "I think we understand men muchi too well." Then she continued, "I have been married iour times I married four of the most wonderful men in the world." We looked questioning-ly questioning-ly at her and a bit astonished. She continued, "You see, 1 want a Valentino, a Van Johnson, my pop and two wonderful brothers all in one. It isn't done you can't get everything into one bundle." Joice, the red head, pipes up with "There's no substitute for a career unless it is a good husband hus-band .... my husbands were stinkers, selfish mean little souls. Neither one would give me my own way." She laughed and we all joined her in her gay laughter we knew what she meant. The girls turned to me. I knew what was expected a confession. I said, "I played competition to the liquor store and a mother-in-law too long, yet I wouldn't trade my married life for anything. I am fortunate, fortun-ate, I have had more from life than the average person. A family fam-ily and a career are very satisfying satis-fying things for a woman such as I." Then I asked the question would you gals marry again? Indeed they would . . . they will. To Shed Light on the World This Week THESE MEN HAD THIS TO SAY: "The cold brutal fact that the U.

Report of the Mass. Teachers Fed-eration. Fed-eration. "We know from the bitter expedience of the fivie years that victory involves far more than the defeat de-feat of an enemy .... the fight to stop aggression in Korea iis a fight to prevent it everywhere else in the world. The aim is not to settle political issues by force but to prevent the aggressor from imposing a settlement settle-ment by force. The aim is not conflict without, limit, but peace without appeasement. ..." WARREN R. AUSTIN chief U.S. delegate to the UN. ' "While we welcome all the help we can get from foreign for-eign countriies, we have made it clear that . such help must not have political strings attached to it ..... we would be unworthy .... if we bartered away our country's count-ry's self-respect or freedom of action, even for something some-thing which we need badly." Prime Minister NEHKU of India, in publicly thanking foreign nations for wheat. " the armed forces should be cut by 500,000 men and the mobilization budget reduced by $20 billion.
