One allotment is for a new power system in Wyoming; one is for additional generating facilities, and the rest will expand existing power systems. The additional generating faculties allotment is to the Moon Lake Electric Association, Inc., in Duchesne county, Utah, in the sum of $50,000. , The President has designated approval of a Work Projects Adminis-- .' tration project in the sum of $85,648 for the City of Monroe to improve . : . streets and cemetery. Property Seizure Bill The property seizure bill which would permit the 'government to take over machinery and supplies needed for national defense has been sent over to the White House. This legislation authorizes the President to requisition military and naval equipment, supplies and munitions during the emergency and would require payment of f air and just compensation. Two special House amendments are: 1 The law would not operate to prohibit any one to keep and bear arms or to permit the requisitioning or registration of personal firearms. 2 It would not authorize the re quisitioning of any machinery or equipment actually in use which is necessary to operate a plant. I 1 I September Output Of Planes Breaks Delivery of airplanes by tailitary aircraft manufacturers totaled 1,914 for the month of September. This number established an all time high and brought United States plane production for the first nine months of 1941 to 12f651. This is at the rate Of 22,968 planes a year. The aircraft production program is now 46 per cent of the goal of 50,000 planes a jrear. In September 1940, only 670 planes were delivered. All Records Jobs Drop By 800,000 According to the Works Projects Administration, unemployment stood at 4,500,000 to September, a drop of 800,000 from August. This was the smallest since the monthly reports were begun by WPA a year and a half ago. Owing m large part to the reopening of schools, a seasonal decline of 1,500,-00- 0 was reported in the country's total labor force. This would have resulted in a much sharper dron in un employment in September except that were was also a reduction of 700,000 ia the number of persons actually fered in an accident Monday afternoon at their home. According to the information received, his younger brother, Jimmy, age 12, was putting away a rifle when it caught on his clothing and discharged, firing a bullet thru Edwards abdomen and out his back. For several days his condition was considered very critical, but his many friends will be happy to learn that his condition is now considered favorable. An operation was performed by his uncle, Dr. Merrill, of Brigham City, which was considered successful. Adversity has stalked the home of Mrs. Fridal which began with an attack of infantile paralysis upon her son, Jimmy, about a year ago. In the latter part of August, this year, she and her family were on their way to Los Angeles, when they met with an automobile accident and she and two of her children were severely injured, and now the above accident, which brings to this courageous lady another serious condition, which calls for the strength of her courage and fortitude. Her many friends extend their deepest sympathy and a heartfelt wish for the speedy recovery of her son and that the future years may bring to her joys to compensate her for the severe trials she has been called to pass through.

M. Christensen. This will make it so practically all the beets may be harvested," weather permitting. The weather has been ideal so far, with the exception of two or three days. The time for closing school in the spring will be extended until May 22, instead of May 15th as previously announced, to take care of this vacation.

This payment amounts to a trifle over 45 cents per torn and will aggregate approximately $45,000 to the farmers of this area. Last year's crop was decidely under the average yield, due to the white fly mainly, so only approximately 100,000 tons were in this district. This payment brings the total received by the farmers from the sugar company to slightly over $5.05 a ton. This added to the $1.88 bonus paid by the government would net the far mers a little more than $6.93 for their beets. The initial payment was $4.15, with two bonuses of 25 cents and 20 cents paid previous to this final pay- haf-vest- ed ment o o o Assembly President Entertained by Local Rebekah Lodge The hearing of the Union Pacific railroad to discontinue train service operating between Ogden and Malady and Ogden and Preston was held at Ogden Monday before the public utilities commission and was continued the following day at Preston before the Idaho commission. No definite decision was reached, but the joint commissions took the Union Pacific's request under advisement indicating a decision would be forthcoming within a month. Mr. T. S. Kinnersley, of Salt Lake Sity, superintendent of transportation for the south central district of the Union Pacific, stated at the Ogden meeting, according to press reports, that he originally recommended the discontinuance of these trains, but after investigations disclosed "we could not very well get along without them." The reason given by the railroad company for their discontinuance was the need of the equipment in national defense elsewhere, and the revenue from the passenger service fails to equal cost of the service. Protestants to the abandonment said that mail service would be delayed and suggested that the railroad had a moral obligation to maintain the service. Malad officials stated that weigh bills on their crops and livestock would fail to arrive until after the produce was moved by freight and thus equipment would be tied up instead of released. Protests were registered from this and other counties affected. The Wildey Rebekah Lodge, No. 28, entertained the president of the Rebekah assembly of Utah, Mrs. Jennie Nelson, and officers, Monday evening in the I. O. O. F. hall. President Nelson gave a wonderful talk on the principles of the Order, Friendship, Love and Truth. The other officers, including our own assembly officer, Gladys Winchester, each gave talks and verses carrying out the theme of "Friend ship."
