The cause of democracy in Europe, they reason, will soon be lost unless helped by the New World de- mocracy. And if that happens, they argue, we will be next in line for fsist aggression.

The new publication reviews by means of words and pictures activities of the extension service for the past two years. The report, which is addressed to Dr. Elmer G. Peterson, president of the college, from William Peterson, director of the extension service, points out that "New plans and new programs inaugurated by federal and state governments in an attempt to bring about widespread recovery in a nation emerging from a critical depression, was carried forward by the . . extension service during the past biennium. "Many assignments were marked with the emergency stamp which made it imperative that agents and specialists lay aside, for the time being, project work at hand and throw their entire efforts into the new assignments that had been designed by representatives of a benign government With such an efficient and effective organization as the extension service through which to operate, the secretary of agriculture and his aides did not hesitate to assign to agents and specialists the task of molding public opinion and bringing about changed practices in agriculture and home making so that the national picture could be completed." The publication shows that the extension staff assumed key positions in state and federal programs. It treats scarcity of water and increase of noxious weeds in Utah as two major problems confronting farmers. Women as well as men have their place in program planning, which is successfully mapping the future of Utah agriculture, involving both farm and home economy, the report points out. The need of mote homes for young married people in the state is seen as a means of retaining the young people who must leave Utah each year. The report also calls attention to the aid given extension programs 3,000 voluntary by approximately leaders, the service's aid to youth club and other programs through and to cooperation of the extension personnel with other federal and state agencies, particularly the college and the federal department of agriculture. The publication reviews agronomy projects which have stressed use of pure seed, improving of farm pastures soil conserving practices, water utilization, weed control, educational tours, and removal of old and diseased trees. It also summarises the fight in Utah against "Mormon" crickets and grasshoppers; cooperation with rodent-contragencies; the livestock industry and its problems; dairy herd improvement and dairy manufacturing courses during the two year period; the extension service's sheep and wool projects; the poultry improvement plan which is being received with increased enthusiasm in the state; and the part of agricultural ol The other school believes with eaual sincerity in rigorous isolation That means a policy of treating all countries, democratic or totalitarian, with equal consideration. They feel we must build up an adequate defen sive military machine, and keep our resources for our own use. They favor net weakening our strengthening, neutrality policy. It is not our business, they argue, to pull any country's fat out of the fire. And, they conclude, if we insist on aiding the other democracies with moral suasion and giving them access to our factories and resources, it will eventually mean that we will have to aid them with our army and navy. President Wil son's refusal to be neutral, they think, and his obvious bias toward the allies. was responsible for bringing us un necessarily into the World war. This illustrates the two major ex tremes of thought. There are, of course, many more moderate groups, which favor a modified neutrality or a modified internationalism. No one can answer now the ques tion of which side will win. Mr. Roose velt, it is believed, feels that neutralOn ity must be somewhat relaxed. the other hand, there is a strong and determined group in Congress, led by Senator Borah, which is determined ic, resist to the end, any Administration tffort to actively aid the European democracies. At this writing it looks like a stalemate is in prospect over foreign policy. 0O0 The business picture is changing but little. The anticipated downswing remains in evidence, and is characterized by serious losses in security val- but to nowhere near the same extent as stock prices.

Anglin from San Francisco, regional office of the Farm Security Administration, spent Thursday in Box Elder County to make further plans for increasing tho number of cooperatives to be 01 ganircd in Pox Elder County under the Farm Security Administration set-u- p and to make plans for better servicing of the cooperatives already organized. He spent the day with Vm. J. Thayne, county supervisor, in reviewing the status of each present cooperative after which he made the announcement that it is the desire of the Farm Security Administration to organize as many of these small cooperatives among the farmers as possible. Almost the full time of one of the supervisors will be spent in Box Elder County in the future on this phase of the work. Mr. Anglim paid a high tribute to the work already done under the supervision of the county advisory committee in already establishing 72 cooperative units in various parts of Box Elder County. Mr. Anglim emphasized the importance of farmers cutting down their indebtedness and instead of purchasing Bires and machinery individually, to do it collectively through cooperating with one or two of their neighbors and thus save money and utilize the machinery to better advantage. He was glad to note that farmers here cooperate in the use of this cooperative machin-ier- y under the Farm Security set-u- p without much difficulty Types of group services established in the United States and some of which can and will be organized in Box Elder County include the following: Boars, bulls, jacks, rams, stallions, cold storage plants, curing housea, storage houses, binders, combines, corn harvesters, ensilage cutters, potato diggers, headers, mowers, rakes, threshers, canning equipment, corn, planters, cultivators, discs, giain drills, manure spreaders, plows, potato plant tis, scrapers, feed and grist, saw, balers, sheep dipping, sheep shearing, trucks and trailers, irrigation, marketing, veterinary, ditching, tractors. Applications are being taken for cooperative loans in the off lets of the Farm Security Administration at Brigham City and Tremonton. ... . 1 One-Legg- 1 Could you climb a mountain with two legs?

Registration Figures Show That Chevrolet Sales Are Highest iW fj 0) Utah's automotive registration figures for the year 1938, made public recently, show Chevrolet in first place in the slate, as in the country at large. Chevrolet, the figures reveal, registered 2,416 passenger cars and trunks in Utah in 1938. This represents 40.3 per cent of the state's total passenger car registrations in the e group, and 33.4 per cent of the truck registrations in Chevrolet's weight classification. This showing in 1938 gives Chevrolet leadership in seven out of the past eight years for passenger car sales in Utah, while Chevrolet trucks continued an unbroken record of lead ership in the state since 1932, making Chevrolet the top truck in Utah for the past seven registrations years. :t i "S ' . low-pric- economics in solving of Utah's rural problems. Through the extension horticulture useproject thousands of diseased and less fruit trees have been removed. The forestry project has encouraged planting of more trees on farms for windbreak and woodlot purposes and lumber, the use of more than trees less producat providing tion cost from the nursery on the college campus. Through joint consideration of farm and home problems the service has encouraged successfully an interest in cooperative family planning, earning, and spending. In the home housewives have been contacted personally and aided in formulating thrift practices in the familv clothing problems. Family health has been stressed by means of dental and medical service plans. Adequate diets for farm families have been prompted by encouraging the planning of a year's food supply, preserving of foods through canning projects, training of housewives In food preparation by leaders, preparation of n food,', and special educational programs. 5.'i00 During each of the two years in were and itgiPtered girls boys club projects with 7 rer cent completing their work. In 1937, l.ri3 representatives of 24 counties attended the annual club leader's training s school, and scores ' f leadership cour-sin the leaders for were conducted various counties.
