SEPTEMBER 10, rProvo's growing: importance as a major retail center haa been pointed up recently with the announcement of plans forcon-atrpctio- n of a number of large, modern stores and industrial plants in this vicinity. Sears, Roebuck & Company have awarded bids for the construction of their new store, and retail center at First West and Second North to occupy almost an entire block' in the newest local business section. Work is to begun immediately on the new store which will more than double the size and floor area of the present store at Center street and Second West. Adequate parking; facilities will be provided ' on .the adjacent company property. The J. C. Penney company anounced this lease on a tyeek the signing of a long-teron new store building to go up the old Or em Center and First West. Condepot corner. struction will be accelerated in order that the new building may be occupied in the summer of 1951, company officials report. The store will be of more than 50,000 square feet area, ample to handle the growing business needs of the store. There will also, be parking provided for customer use. Safeway officials recently announced the purchase of a large plot of ground at Second West and Second North for a site on which to build a modern supermarket to serve this rapidly growing retail center. The Barbizon company of Utah which has operated for many years in the old Knight Woolen Mills property is already building a new, modern plant at Second West and 12th North street. Officials of this company have become convinced that is destined for continued, the Provo-areand that this is an ideal growth steady place for their operations. One of the prime factors in the high rating the Provo retail area has achieved is the continued expansion of the Geneva Steel company operations, as demonstrated by the construction now under way of a new unit for the production of hot rolled sheets with a capacity of 100,000 tons per year. This particular product is one which is used extensively in the manufacture of furnaces, hot water heaters, truck bodies, etc. Fabricators and small manufacturers an ideal site to will find the Provo-arelocate their plants when the hot rolled sheets become available for the local market. The Pacific States Cast Iron Pipe company which only recently completed a new, modern plant for the more efficient manufacture of a better quality product is continuing the expansion policy with plans for a new office and administration building to cost upwards of $300,000. Many smaller business operations have either completed new buildings or have them in course of construction to help swell the local construction totals.

The Communists pour out their propaganda unceasingly. It matters not whether.-have something new to say or can they only repeat what was said yesterday. They keep at it. They paint the United States as a keeping the world in turmoil. They call us the aggressor in Korea, and use stories of our military operations there to declare that we are destroying everything, bombing women and children And murdering innocent bystanders. They say we want to run the world, that the United Nations is our puppet, that we want Asia for exploitation and that we are opposed to freedom and for Asian peoples. The American answers to this constant tirade are woefully few and inadequate, if What is heard of the effect is accurate.

That's one of the prime reasons why he's a patient. Recognizing this, public schools in their health program these days not only teach children the value of brushing their teeth regularly, but also teach them how to do it The schools' of Walpole, Massachusetts, go further. There the pupil's pencil kit contains, along with the usual items, a toothbrush and the first class after lunch begins with three minutes of tooth brushing. Did you every try brushing your teeth steadily for three minutes by the clock? They say that's a minimum time for a proper job. The amount of detailed scrubbing which can be done inside the mouth in three minutes is simply amazing. off-the-'str- eet m off-the-str- eet - anti-Americ- an hs "war-mong- er self-governm- Washington Merry-go-Rou- a a stantial sums for propaganda operations, but the vastly greater sums for war and defense may be money poured down a rat-hoif we cannot gain and keep the friendship or at least the confidence of the people hearing some wild Communist charge, that it is not worth dignifying with an answer.

Yet we sent men into battle with these same almost useless bazookas. This was sheer murder. The military had five years to prepare a new type bazooka, but none were on deck in Japan when the Korean war broke. It is reported that heavy orders placed for the smaller bazooka and not countermanded toward the end of the war is part of the answer. These factories just kept on making useless bazookas. 3. Tanks During most of War II U. S. tanks were inferior to German tanks.while the Russians publicly chided us regarding the lend-leatanks we sent them. After the war we junked thousands of our own tanks, apparently without making any serious attempt to develop a tank that could meet the Russians. In Brief, the Pentagon planners were woefully asleep. 4. Air force MacArthur had the largest chunk of U. S. air power to be found anyplace in the world when the Korean war started. But for many agonizing days at the start, 70 per cent of his planes were kept on the ground. This was not due to bad weather alone, but to the fact that MacArthur feared a Russian air strike at Japan. Many military men disagreed with him on this, pointing out that planes over Korea required only an hour to get back to defend Japan, and that time in the Korean war was priceless. 5. Slow Troop Movements In the first weeks of Korean fighting, troops moved from Japan to Korea with tragic slowness. From Japan to Korea is only 120 miles the distance to Philadelphia from Washington but at that crucial time when we had more bases in Korea, troops moved in driblets. MacArthur's excuse was that he feared a Russian attack on Japan, though many in Washington argued that Moscow would never risk our atom bomb and a world war by attacking Japan. 9. Top Officers The U. S. air force commander in Japan is Gen. George Stratemeyer, who occupied a relatively noncombat berth theatre. He during the war in the China-Ind- ia is not a skilled tactical commander but, despite this, the air force has kept him on in Korea Some explain because he has the knack of get--tialong with MacArthur. Gen. Walton Walker. MacArthur's ground force commander, though seeing important European service under Patton, is not considered one of the army's top men. In Japan he was noted for having the best house in the Tokyo Yokohama area, having commandeered it from the head of Standard Oil and refused to relinquish it. Americans who lunch with him were awed by the general's luxurious surroundings, including the fact that eight Geisha girls stood bowing at the door as the guests entered, not lifting their heads until the guests had passed. r's The old jungle commanders who brought troops up from the southwest Pacific and who are skilled in the current type of Korean fighting are not with him anymore; and at least one of them, Gen. Robert Eichelberger, hero of Buna, has made it quite clear that he would not care to serve under MacArthur again. Inquiring senators feel that the lives of hundreds of heroic GJ.'s and combat officers could have been saved by more planning, more preparedness, and more forthrightness at the top. all-arou- nd TELEVISION U. S. Prestige In Europe Reaches Low Ebb; Doubtful Western Europe Would Fight Russ WASHINGTON Unpublished intelligence reports reaching Washington from various parts of the world tell a depressing story of lowered American military prestige as a result of Korea. Confidential reports from friendly British aources bear this out. The British embassies in France, Belgium and Holland, for instance, report that in case of war with Russia those countries probably would not fight. Our own embassies substantiate this. .Even the published reports tell a story that is bad enough. From Paris the Associated Press reports. ?TThe crisis in Korea has brought the American position in France to a low point. . . . there has been a wave of dismay at American reverses. . . it is staggering to hear Frenchmen talk about capitulation (to Russia)." 'And in Germany, where most Americans have blithely figured we could raise a German army to support us, comes the opposite note from our best friend, Chancellor Adenauer, who says that Germans need American troops to support them, rather than German troops to support the U.
