Head of president of the National council, Boy Scouts of America, makes this statement: The theme of the Boy Scouts of America for the year 1946 is Scouts of the World Building what of Together. Regardless treaties or agreements may be made by the nations of the world, in the last analysis what happens to our hopes of world peace for th next 50 years depends upon what happens in the lives of boys growing up here in America and in the countries of ' Europe. If we can impress upon these boys principles of friendliness and mutual respect, we shall go a long way toward establishing a better understanding among the nations of the world. Here in America we have nearly two million members 'of the Boy Scouts of America. Throughout fhe world there are approximately three million Scouts and leaders. The Scouth program seeks to train these boys for service to useful and citizenship. others millions of Scouts With these throughout the world we believe can something truly magnificent be done. We hope to develop a body of men who, because of their Scout training, will stand out in their native lands as our Boy Scouts stand out here in America, dediideals of cated to the same scouting as expressed in our Scout Oath and Law. Together they will, we believe, help to bring about a lasting peace and build a better world for the future. The monthly snow survey on Mt.

Murray at the Lions dinner meeting today. He discussed the labor situation as It stands toray. We hear remarks made each day that wTe are either in sympathy with or against labor, many or them being rather harsh and rude but if we consider the question as a whole we will find that there is an income stream from which each individual or group ere striving to get a portion. There are many ways of getting a larger share of that stream-throug- h the legislature, by combinations, by pressure groups oi by organizer labor. The woolgrow-er- s to get endeavored recently more by requesting that their cattle be allowed to graze upon state owned lands without rent; the federal employees, In order to get relief from the wltholding tax imposed by the government, sought an increase of wages comparable to it; the school teacher at present is asking for an increase in salaries form the state school financing bodies, and the union member is trying to force a greater remuh-eratio- n through their right to strike. The speaker read some figures to show that the present strikers are in fact getting a little less than they were a year ago but the things they have to purchase are not decreasing in price. The attitude of most people shows that we are out of patience with the strikers and we are saying to them get back to work so I can have more to sell, but the workers are not interested in what the small merchants throughout the country are wishing for but their first concern is what the going back to work will bring to them. a lively Green Stockings, comedy in three acts will be presented by the Logan Senior high school Thursday at 8:15 p. m.

Hurren, Russell Hanson, N. D. Salisbury and L. H. Daines were appointed as a committee to meet with the college officials immediately and urge that plans get under way for the construction of new dormitories at the college before the next school year. The Housing committee of the chamber will take the lead in pooling the various building interests of the city and proceed to get priorities for building in the office of the Federal housing of the state as quickly as possible. The directors of the chamber were urged to continue their efforts to have the Bushnell hospital retained as an active government hospital unit. A new Polk directory of Logan and Cache county, to be published in the near future, was approved by the directors. Building Permits On Increase "An' indication that building in Logan city is in an up swing was shown Saturday when $37,660 was issued during January in as' compared building permits with $5900 for the same month in 1945, Maurice M. Marler, assistant city engineer, said. Although there were no permits issued for new dwellings, one large .business block on North Main took a permit for $30,000. The permits were for seven remodeling johs, including two new apartments. With the possibility of release of materials for construction, the boom in Logan is exbuilding pected to go upwards this spring. Already 50 Federal housing units have been approved for veterans attending USAC, and 20 additional ones for veterans who are not students. Private business and veterans are being urged to start planning for building, especially veterans who have a priority on building materials at the present time. Capt.
