Cut congress had its or ders and It wanted to go home, so the administration program In general was pushed through. One of the most controversial measures an that program, the Guffey coal bill, had through the house by above and threats of .when It was taken up by the sennit every effort to kill It, by eliminating the tax feature, was defeated. During the debate Senator Walter K. George of Georgia, Democrat, created a sensation by denouncing the bill In. these words: Outside of political circles.

If and when Italy defies the league, that pretentious body, previously defied successfully by Japan and Cermany, will amount to little. After Baron Pompel Alolsl bad submitted the proposition to.

Br AXOS JENKINS Rearing its majestic peak 12,000 feet above sea level, towering Mount Nebo commands the entire scenic panorama of Juab and adjoining Sanpete counties. The towering grandeur of this massjve peak represents one of Utahs greatest scenic assets, particularly since the completion of the scenic loop around the mountain beginning at Nephl, going to Salt Creek canyon and taking off on the Salt Creek road at the point and from there branching off four miles further at Nebo creek. Climbing the new road up Red Creek canyon and following the winding red ribbon of roadway to Red Creek flat is a far cry from tha climb made by William W. Phelps August 24. 1819 for the purpose of making scientific observations. Mr. Phelps conquest of the peak probably la one of the earliest recorded In Utah history. Mount Nebo, when the motorist reaches the top' of Red Creek, offers one of the most beautiful and sights of the many cenlc wonders to be found In Utahs wonderland of parka. At the top of Red Creek the road turns west and follows the divide between the Salt Creek drainage and Nebo Creek drainage with Mount Nebo straight ahead. The roadway la lined with quaking aspens and continues on around the head waters of Nebo creek to the divide between Nebo creek and Santaqnln canyon and offers a view of the vista of Utah valley and Utah lake. Passing Mud Springs, the motorist drives between Twin Peaks, continuing around the east aide of North Twin Peak commanding a view of Holman canyon. Continuing north the road leads to a point at the head of Santaiquln canyon, Fayaon canyon and Holman canyon. From this point the tourist commands a view of all Utah county. The scenic loop Is 72 miles from Nephl, around the mountain and back to Nephl. From Nephl to the ranger station at Payaon canyon la 2 miles; from the station to Payaon proper Is 14 miles, and from Payaon to Nephl Is 2G miles. The Devils Kitchen one of the famed scenic wonders of the loop can be reached from the main highway by a walk. Tha Mount Nebo area Is acknowledged the home of Utah elk; these animals can ba seen along the road any evening or morning. One party recently counted more than 30 head during the mornings drive. In the summer of 1933 a CCC camp was located In the Mount Nebo recreational arga and construction begun on a splendid amphitheater, since completed. Impetus was given civic celebrations by the construction of the huge outdoor theater and now annual outings are held there. Included in the list of annual affairs are the Wheat Day celebration, the Mount Nebo program and hike and the annual Jnab Stake day. Replenishment with game fish of the stream of Mount Nebo In recent years has added greatly to the sport of fishermen who come miles to try their luck. Other sports including phensant and duck hunting and deer and elk abound In the Mount Nebo area. More " 300 head of elk are now located on the forest reserve adjacent to Nephl, according to recent reports. While Mount Nebo dominates the scenic wonders of the surrounding country. It does not overshadow the beautiea of Maple canyon In adjacent Sanpete county. Located approximately 7 miles west of Moroni In the western sldo of Sanpete valley, the canyon is replete with natural wonders. There Is for example the famed Box canyon, with sheer towering walls rising abruptly Into the sky several hundreds of feet, with the walls at the base never more than BO feet apart In Box canyon also la Conglomerate rock, thrusting 600 feet Into the air to mark the site of the great natural amphitheater. The canyon itself is a welter of maple growth from which It derives Its name. The canyon forma the almost Invisible entrance Into the Sanpltch range of mountains, where for thousands of years the spring freshets have weathered the conglomerated rock. In early days Maple canyon was a secret chamber with walls 500 to 800 feet high. The Sanpltch Indian tribe, once powerful here, held the canyon In awe but it Is now known that the secret box formation became a refuge later for other tribes. The canyon for years was the rellnqnary for many weird legends, and it Is only In recent years that the area has become familiar with white men. Aa Salt Lake nestles between the Wasatch and the range of mountains, so Moroni lies between the great Wasatch Oqnlrrh fault and the Sanpltch range. Tourists entering the secret Box canyon must bear in mind that the same door that gave them entrance also leads them out The Indian pursuing the mountain lion and the deer that abounded In the area, Into the box and they never came out to roam the open range. Farther np the canyon Is a small natural bridge that is set like a gem In the natural beauty of the place. The little bridge, only 80 feet high, Is perfect viewed from below. Tourists may see and wonder at the Inscrutable processes of nature that erode the solid rock to form a bridge. The tourist planning on seeing the beauties of Maple canyon will discover that the wonders of the canyon will never he duplicated.
