Growth of United States
During $50 Years

Washington, June 14.-(P)-The
Stars and Stripes, that stirring en-
blem symbolizing all Of the ideals
which have fostered the United
States and made it great asa nation,
/ is $50 years old today.
The rough journal of the Second
Continental Congress discloses this
entry among a series of Marine Com

1777:
"Resolved, That the flag of the

ISOLATION, of which Col. James A.
Moss, is founder and director gen.
cral.
The flag to which homage is being
paid today, with it's 48 stars and 10
stripes, not only represents the ideals
on which the nation is based but
pictures it's growth in $50 years from
a group of Is British colonies fight
ing for independence to world
power comprising 48 closely knit
states.
Who designed and made the first
United States flag under the reso-
luton of the Continental Congress,
and what became Of it, remains dis
puted question among historians. 1t
seems to be established, however,
that it was created to meet the need
Of the struggling republics revolu-
tionary navy, and that John Paul
Jones, who was given command of
the Ranger in the same series of
resolutions which included the first
flag act, was the first to raise it
aloft with his own hands on his new
ship.
After IS Years
Eighteen years passed after adop-
ton of the first flag resolution be-
fore Congress moved to. make the
act more specific and to allow for
representation in the flags design
of new states, declaring that after
May l, 1875, the emblem should have
Is stars and Is stripes. Such flag,
flying from the ramparts Of Fort

on Baltimore, inspired Frances Scott
Kew to write 1.-THE Star Spangled

passed restoring the original num-
Der Of stripes, determining that they
should be horizontal, and making
provision for the addition of star

He was pulse shooter. His guns

Strong sentiment in favor of the

Bureau Can't Dictate
Employers Choice Of
Workers Livdahl Says

The state workmen's compensation
bureau has no authority to dictate to
any employer whom he shall employ,
G. \. Livdahl, state workmen's COM

The writer of the letter, who signed
himself Taxpayer of Grand Forks

pioying ii man who was injured in
an accident last summer. The OBJ
lection was based on the ground that
the man was not physically capable
Of performing the work for which he
WAS employed and would inevitably

The commission not only has no
right to object to an employer hiring
any person but IS not opposed to the
re employment of persons who al

for which the bureau was liable,
