Uncle Sam Is to Print Lots of Money The treasury has made plans for printing more paper money in the next fiscal year than ever has been turned out by the American government In any other twelve months In history. Orders have been prepared for the purchase of 200, 000, OOO sheets of distinctive silk fiber paper, from each sheet of which eight pieces of currency are made. Beginning July 1, the bureau of engraving and printing will be run at maximum capacity to meet the nations paper money requirements. Coincident with announcement of the printing program, Assistant Secretary C. S. Dewey, whose job it Is to see that there is plenty of money available in the country, announced that the treasury would take its first step on July 1 toward building up a reserve of currency. By this method, it is hoped, the life of the paper money may be prolonged. An opportunity will be hud for "curing" the money before it goes into active service, and this process is expected to keep It from fraying, cracking, and otherwise going to pieces so easily. The life of the bill now is only about eight months, whereas trensury experts figure it should be about a year. In pre-wdays the average dollar bill would wear about fourteen or fifteen months. Mr. Dewey Is convinced that higher prices, use of automobiles, the necessities of commerce and industry, and modern ideas and habits compel the carrying of more money. Thus the silver dollar has fallen into disuse. Federal Judge William E. Baker at Chicago dismissed the contempt of court proceedings brought by the West near Lyons, Colo., by two cowboys.

Gently, almost deferentially, Mme. Slavko y Grouiteh introduced reality into the American Academy of Political Science the other day in Philadelphia. Sandwiched between academic papers on American abroad she warned that a new European war is at hand. Never since 1914, in May of which year she visited this country to alarm leading Americans to warlike omens, has Europe been so tense and the nations so fearful of an early outbreak, Mme. Grou-Itc- h assured the conference. The American-horwife of the Yugo-Slaminister at Washington pressed her conviction that Europe has no substitute for war in sight. There is no use pretending, said Mme. Grouiteh quietly, "that war has been done away with while it still is so soothing to politicians and so stimulating to national pride and courage. War Is the narcotic of the nations, quieting domestic dissension and Inflaming the ardors and passions of the people." Nor did Mme. Grouitchs appeal to realism stop there. Speaking from the years as a diplomat's wife, she asserted it is people, experience of twenty-fiv- e not ambassadors, who make wars. She likewise declared that feminine demand for luxuries, driving men to excesses to obtain them, is a potent influence toward war. Men will and do fight to give their women what they desire, and women today desire more than the world will supply peaceably.

The eyes of many thousands of people in Utah and the surrounding states, reaching as far north as Canada, and as far south as Arizona and Mexico, are now turned towards Salt Lake City, and many have attended the great Mutual Imand Jubilee provement Conference held from June 6th to June 10th. The Jubilee brought to Salt Lake City one of the greatest gatherings of young people ever assembled in the country. Representatives gathered from Idaho, Wymter-mountai- n oming, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Colorado, and Canada, took part in this great celebration. It was fifty years ago, on the 10th of June, 1875, in the Thirteenth ward, in Salt Lake City, that the Young Mens Mutual Improvement Association was organized, by Junius F. Wells, under the direction of President Brigham Young. A few years previous to that a Young Women's Organization had been started, which afterwards became the Young Ladies Mutual Improvement Association. These organizations together, now have over 100,000 members. It was the annual June Conference of these great associations that occasioned the Jubilee celebration of this Fiftieth Anniversary. Over 25,000 guests in Salt Lake in addition to the local citizens witnessed some of the features of the occasion. Starts With Reoeption' reception for all the delegates was given in honor of the First Presidency of the church. It was necessary to utilize three large buildings for this reception. It was carried on simthe ultaneously In magnificient church office building, this being the first function of this kind ever held in the building, the Deseret Gymnasium and the Odeon Hall, were used in addition. Over three thousand people were at the reception. During the three days very important general and departmental meetings were conducted in which vital mutual improvement problems were discussed. This organization was under the direction of expert leaders and afforded an unusual opportunity tor Mutual Improvement workers. One feature of the Jubilee was a grand pageant The Torch of Inspiration given in the great Tabernacle. For this special occasion a great or stage draping was used for the first time extending across the entire end of this historic building. affording a stage setting and for the pageant. The principal feature on the stage was a Greek Temple, around which was depicted the development of Mutual 1m provement Work Past, Present, and Future. The cyclorama Is necessarily of great dimensions, consisting of a complete set of beautiful velour curtains, which will form a valuable end permanent equipment for such similar events as may be, in the future, presented in the tabernacle. Over seven hundred people took part in the pageant. Above the stag.- was mounted a great torch, significant tf the theme treated.
