Show FRIDAY, NOVEMBER THE AMERICAN FORK CITIZEN FRIDAY, .NOVEMBER 24, 1939 NO LAST FRONTIER "Our last frontier is gone," sigh the historians who read history of America as the pushing forward of the frontier from the Atlantic to the Pacific. That offered to ambition and enterprise a field of unlimited opportunity. And now that we have achieved the conquest of the continent, what are we to do? Are we to lament with Alexander that there -are no more worlds to conquer? ' The westward march of our frontier meant new lands to make fruitful, to plant with wheat and corn or to drive out the buffalo and replace them with domestic do-mestic cattle. The historians are-right that frontier is no more. Yet there are other frontiers which are beyond their calculations. These frontiers are not geographical. They are not measured in miles; they are the frontiers of knowledge and of invention. The frontiers of the new sciences which year after year are being advanced from the realm of pure theory and high speculation into actualities. Our old frontier had a definite limit. That limit was reached, but the frontiers of the mind of man have no limits and no measure. Our great-grandfathers saw steam revolutionize the world. We in our day have seen the marvels of the automobile auto-mobile and the airplane. Have our people come to their Pacific when we can say surely that progress is stopped? Not at all. Our genius for invention means new frontiers for us to push forward, great, new, and as yet undreamed of worlds to conquer. We are not a static people. We never have been content to sit down and be satisfied that all has been done tha( man can do. The great thing in our history has been our inability to stay put We have always been pushing f or-irard or-irard to new and larger fields of endeavor. There is and can be for Americans no last frontier. (From the Cincinnati Enquirer) AMEKlOJjr GET rtrklbkeJ Erery FrUay at American Fek UtaJi Vy the alhms ruxuzaufo CO.

These checks represent repre-sent initial payments on beets harvested har-vested this season, which were paid November 15. In Utah nearly 8.000 checks were mailed to growers-in seven factory districts lor a total of more than two and a half million dollars. It is estimated that nearly a million tons of beets were delivered to Utah factories fac-tories for the Initial payment. Companies making payments and the amounts represented are as follows fol-lows Utah-Idaho Sugar Company plants at Garland, West Jordan and Spanish Fork, 3400 growers, $U15,-000; $U15,-000; The Amalgamated Sugar Company Com-pany plants at Lewlston and Ogden, 28,000 growers. $850,000; Layton Sugar Company. 650 growers, $333,-000: $333,-000: Gunnison Sugar Company, I.- 000 growers, $3,000,000; and the Franklin County Sugar Company at Preston. Idaho, 800 growers, $390,- 000. Under terms of contract entered into between the sugar company and" trie growers before planting Is done In the spring, payments on beets harvested before November 1 were due November 15, while an additional addition-al payment for beets harvested later than November 1 Is made at a subsequent sub-sequent date. The November 15 payment of the Gunnison Sugar Company la the complete payment for all beets for this season. It to estimated that M per cent of the beets delivered to the Utah-Idaho Sugar company plants In Utah were under the November IS payment, which Includes deliveries up to and included November 10. Payment for all beets for 1939 will be completed November 30 by the Utah-Idaho Sugar company. The Amalgamated Sugar company will make payment December 1 for November deliveries, while the date for payment on November No-vember beets by the Layton Sugar company has not yet been determined. determin-ed. It Is expected that an additional addi-tional 20,000 tons of beets will be paid for by the Layton company, and approximately 80,000 tons by the Amalgamated Sugar company. Besides these payment, growers who comply with the terms of the Sugar Control Act are expected to receive from $1.80 to $2.00 per ton In benefit payments from the Federal Fed-eral Government through funds raised from an excise or processing tax paid by the sugar companies to the government. Since this is considered con-sidered part of the initial payment, it is expected that such benefit payments pay-ments will be made some time in January. Mr. James H. Jensen, chairman of the Salt Lake County Agricultural Committee, said that the payment was made in February Feb-ruary last year but would be made earlier this year in Salt Lake county. Benefit payments are determined by the sugar content of the beets. Many beet growers will also receive re-ceive payments under the soil conservation con-servation program. Under the terms of the contract which the grower has with the processor for 1939 beets, the grower Is paid on the sugar content con-tent of the beets , and the net selling sell-ing prices of sugar obtained during the year. Therefore. If prices are sufficiently high, additional payments pay-ments will be made to the growers with final settlement October 15, 1940.

S. Lewis, Professor of Mining and Milling at the University Uni-versity of Utah. "In the present 'war of nerves' a nation self-sufficient in mineral raw materials can remain much calmer than one that knows she Is dependent on foreign sources' for necessary mineral supplies. TTie importance of mineral resources Is much Intensified in war time, and It has been estimated that an industrialized in-dustrialized nation consumes m wartime from 5 to 25 times as much metal as In pesce time," Professor Lewis said.
