At least, the response Saturday and Sunday fulfilled expectations. Approximately 360 persons boarded the train at the Logan dvpot. rode to the Second street depot west and north of Ogde.', worked for 10 hours, and then returned most of them weary to their Cache valley places of abode.

Great stress has been laid upon the efficiency with which the nazi organization compiles and correlates current news from all over the world in order that Hitler may take advan- tage of every eedient. Yet, like us lesser mortals, the fuehrer did not comprehend the significance of Chinas resistance to Japanese invasion. If he had, in all probability he never would have attacked Russia when he did. And the attack upon Russia probably was his fatal error. Dr. E- - C. Wu, mayor of Chungking, paid tribute, on the fifth anniversary of Nippons invasion, to the Chinese peoples capacity to suffer and to recuperate. China has withstood the assault made by the militaristic, d Japanese because her people have demonstrated ability to keep working, keep fighting and keep smiling. O Well-arme- If Herr Hitler had ondered that fact, and then given thought to Russian economic and social history and racial Anglo-America- The Japanese chased the Chinese from Canton to Peiping, and slaughtered them by the tens of thousands, and destroyed their property without let or hindrance, but wherever they turned, they found more Chinese fighting desper, ately. The Germans pushed the Russians around as a strong man would a group of children. Huge areas of the soviet lay in ruins. Still, however the nazis turned, there were Russians, dying but taking Hitlers proud corps into neighboring graves. China and Russia have done what Prance demonstrably could not do, what Britain and the United States probably could not have done. They did not do it for us. They did it for themselves. But we get the benefit, which we can share fully with the two nations who have saved modern civilization. .

It Is probably too much to hope any legislation of this kind will be passed before the end of 1942. It might even drag over and be left for the new Congress. In the face of that possibility, the smart small business man today will be the one who doesn't wait for Washington but takes matters into bis own hands, closes up his business if that's the handwriting on the wall of his factory or store, and gets one of those nice jobs in a shipyard or jeep factory.

Theyre all small bsuinesses, too, and they wail that nobody in Washington is doing anything about them except to deliver funeral orations after they pass out. Even in boom times small business firms die like flies, and are born the same way. Some enterprising citizen of every community is always getting the bug to go into business for himself, usually on a shoestring. He opens a bean ery or gas station and as often as not folds up before the year is out. In 1939 and 1940 recorded business failures numbered over 1000 a month. All through the Coolidge and Hoover booms they numbered over 20,000 a year.
