THEIR AIMS OF 100000 ACRES

Washington, Nov. 4-Congress
Grand Canyon of Arizona, National
Park. For years the canyon has been
quite generally regarded as q park,
but officially it is a section of two
national forests, a game refuge and
a national monument.
at has never been managed as a
part of the peace system, and has new
er been susceptible of development
as SUCH" says the House public lands
committee in reporting favorably a
Senate bill that would dedicate $50
square miles-6O0, 900 acres-in
northern Arizona as the Grand Can
yon National park. This magnifi-
cent gorge should now take its place
as a link in the national park chain
which already includes most of the
nations wonderful and extraordinary
natural features"
1t was thirty-two years last jan
uady that the first bill to make the
Grand Canyon a national park was
introduced in the Senate by the late
ex-President Benjamin Harrison, then
a senator from Indiana. Since then
the proposal has been presented to
Congress from time to time.
at appears that there never has
been a valid objection advanced
against it." declares Secretary Lane,
in a statement favoring the project.
Nor can such an objection be urg-
ed because the Grand Canyon be-
longs to the Federal Government and
any attempt to thWart a change in
it's status, which would distinctly re-
dound to its advantage, must be by
some private interest.
Private resources have accomplish
ed limited development. Thousands
Of tourists visit the Canyon annually,
but due to the lack of roads, trails
ard side-trip destinations the throngs
have little opportunity to enjoy in
full measure the marvellous grandeur
of the region.
Less than 400 of the 100000 acres
that the proposed legislation would
place in the park are now in private
ownership, these being held in small
parcels near the rim. Obviously, the
grsater park of the land lies within
the enormous gulf, measuring at
some points 20 miles across the top.
Sufficient land is to be included back
of the north and south rims to make
possible road development.

teresting; drill, drill, drill-walking
up and down again-relieved by spells
of ditch digging or washing dishes.
The great longing of a young man
so placed is for a change-to get
away and see something different
from wooden barracks and dusty
streets, and for some taste of those
normal social relations of which they
have been SO suddenly deprived.
The work of the War Camp Com
munity Service is to furnish as near
as possible these social necessities.
The processes are many and inter-
esting. For instance:
Arrange Dances.
A first sergeant of a certain COM
pany of men called up one of our
headquarters to see if it was not posi-
BILE for US to get up a dance or some
thing. 1.-THE men need it bad" he
said.
The telephone was answered by

trouble yourself any more about it."
So the dance was held, and was so
successful that the sergeant told me
afterwards that it had been the sal

The Bridgeport Esperanto society
located at 284 Dover street, is part Of
a. worldwide movement that is rep
resented by similar groups and socie-
ties in every portion of the civilized
globe. It's members are men and
women who are united by a single
purpose to strengthen international
bonds and to promote a spirit Of
broader tolerance and mutual for
bearance that alone can bring about
that state of permanent peace for the
attainment of which millions have
already given their lives,
But Esperantists do not believe that
mere negations and aimless protests
against war will ever eliminate it as
a recurrent cataclysm of history.
Evil is not destroyed by ignoring it,
and peace cannot be maintained
merely because we say that war is
wrong. Mankind, or at least a large
portion of it, realizes what terrible
thing war is; but most of US have yet
to understand that the best interests
of all people and nations can be serv-
ed by universal international cooper
alton.
Until all intelligent people perceive
this truth the most perfectly conceiv-
ed peace plans Of far-seeing states
men will not prevail against popular
ignorance and, prejudice. But if
people are to be enlightened it can
only be by bringing home to them
individually and collectively the truth
of the universal brotherhood of all
races and nations.
Nearly eighty years ago DeTocque-
vile truly said that THE tie of lam
guage is perhaps the strongest and
/ most durable that can unite man

| keystone of the Esperanto philosophy.
| An International language, a language
that every intelligent man and woman
can learn in addition to his or her
native tongue; thoroughly neutral
| language that does not conflict with
the ideals of any race, however large
or small; a speech that comprehends

| in nutshell. There is the strongest
and most durable tie that can unite
mankind, and the basis upon which

common tongue.
The Esperanto movement is an
educational movement; and the pro-
cess of popular education is oft-timek
very slow, The Esperantists fully
realize the tremendous tasks ahead
of them that will come with the re-
construction period after the war
But they are not faint-hearfed, they
look at the future with the confidence
that is born of the certain knowledge
of the value of Esperanto's mission
to the human race,
1--WE know how long the road will
be,
How heavy there the load will be,
We know about the barricades thai
wait along the track:
But we have set our soul ahead
Upon a certain goal ahead
And nothing left from hell to sky
ever turn US back"

Cleveland, January H.-(Special) The Iron Trade Review today says;
 Slow progress is being made in pre- pairing lines of iron and steel produc- tion shattered by two weeks of the worst operating conditions in his tory of the industry. The past weeks blizzard, sweeping over most of the principal districts, has piled up the already appalling loss of tonnage pre- viously resulting from the tangle of shipping at critical points.
 The Chicago district, which has been the center of storms of unusual se- verity, is hard put to overcome the worst blockade since iron and steel making became a major industry in that territory. Scarcely wheel has been turned at Gary, South Chicago, Indiana Harbor and Joliet. These con- ditions virtually have been duplicated at Cleveland, Pittsburg and Youngs- town. Sheet mill output has dropped to little more than 50 per cent. Many coke plants in the Connellsyille region have been on a half production basis, Even movement of most essential war materials for war account has been barred by railroad embargoes.
