La Nauze the opportunity to make the trip
His mission was to investigate the mysterious
disappearance in the Barren Island OF two
Catholic missionaries, Fathers lie Roux and
Rouvier. At the time, Inspector La Nauze was
comfortably stationed at a post in Northern
Alberta He had been a member of Canada's
crack police force less than 10 years and had
never before come in contact with Eskimos.
BY Hudson Bay Company boat and canoe he
started with his officers for Fort Resolution.

bought a York boat, one OF those wide ships
which have but a four-inch keel and which,
rugged up with sail, is the ship the INDIANS
and voyagers have ussd for many years in the
northland.
He went on to Fort Norman and there en-
gagged an interpreter-Eskimo Ilavinik, an IN
telligent chap and linguist extraordinary.
Ilaviniks wife, Mamayuk, and his daughter.
Nagosak, were to come along. Both would be
a help to do the odd domestic chores that
women everywhere do batter than men.

nine Indians and equipped with supplies Tor

In addition to Indians. the Eskimo interpre-
ter and his family, Inspector La Nauze, Con-
stables Withers and Wight. the party included
Explorer DARCY Arden, as well as represent
alive Of the missionaries, Father Frajpsance,
a veteran traveller.
MARCY ARDEN was among the first to give
an explanation for the disappearance OF
the two priests. Then there was l6-year-old
Indian lad who also had something to say.
Both believed the missionaries had been
murdered.
Arden, the year before, had been in the
country where the missionaries had lived He
had heard of Eskimos who had been seen in
the cassocks of the priests He had found their
home destroyed. The Indian boy had seen
Eskimos with up-to-date rifi.s and field glasses.
La Nauze's intention was to reach the head
quarters of the missing fathers and there make
his Winter camp. He sailed along the Peace
River, down the Mackenzie as it wended its way
to the Arctic Ocean to Great Bear River some
700 miles from Fort Resolution.
The journey was a long one. 1t was mid
Summer by the calendar, but in the water it
seemed like Winter. And the men were in the
water most of the time. The river was shallow.
They had to tow it with draw lines over sand
bars and mud fats.

TARIFF LIKELY
TO Be HELD UP
UNTIL APRIL |
HaWIey-Smoot Bill to Meet
Many Delays Before
Passing.
En- United Press

m [ H4tfN tTbkS
WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-The
present regular session of congress
will end, in the opinion of many
congressional leaders, before the
Hawley-Smoot tariff bill is written
finally into the statute books.
This despite the original plans Of
President Hoover and his advisers
in congress to complete the measure
during the special session ended last
month.
Nearly nine months ago, April II.
to be exact, the President recon-
mended to congress a limited re-
vision of tariff rates. The resulting
bill was passed by the house with
little delay, but has been before the
senate for many months.
When the special session ended
the senate was about halfway
through its consideration of the bill.
During the three weeks of the reg
ular session it spent less than 8
week on the tariff and completed
only two additional paragraphs.
Predictions as to when the bill
finally will pass the senate vary
from February l to April /.
Chairman Smoot of the senate
finance committee today estimated
the date as April l. He said it
should pass in February, but
chose the former as more likely
date.

u. S. is HEADED
/. FOR SOCIALISM,
|. SAYS EDUCATOR
Chicago U. Professor Cites
Two Trends Noticeable
in Modern Life.
BY DANIEL NJ. KIDNEY

america, like all other nations Of
the western world, is headed toward
Socialism, but we will keep right on
calling it democracy" Professor
Thomas Vernon Smith of the Uni
versity of Chicago told the open
forum at KirShbaum Community
Center Sunday night.
1.-THE fact is that Socialism al
ready has strong foothold in the
United States" he asserted, al
though we never would consent to
call it that.
Taking the original conception
of democracy and comparing it to
the modern control of industry by
government for the social good and
the latter must be termed Social
ISM"
Two MajOr Trends
1.-THE Trend of Modern Life" was
the subject of Professor Smiths adj
dress. He pointed out the two ma
jor trends as being quite paradox
cal. They are the trend toward
worldwide political and economic
organization, coupled with trend
toward marked individualism.
Today's philosophical problem is
to find the mean between these ex-
tremes, the professor asserted.
Super organization of the west
along political lines, such as the
League of Nations and the World
Court is a distinct movement in the
modern world" he continued.
1.-The league is the world legisla-
ture and the court the world jul
dietary.
Daily it becomes more true that
the world really is but a community.
Economic forces have brought po-
litical organizations to realize this.
"At the same time, this trend to-
ward super-organization, almost
hierarchal in form, has entered re-
ligion. Professionalism, which for CEN
turtles underwent constant change
along individual lines, is being
moved by centipetal force which
is bringing about unity.
Toward Socialism
1.-THE whole trend of the western
world is away from the old so-called
type of individualism toward Social
ism"
On the other hand, the speaker
pointed out, individual liberty is ex-
pressing itself in new forms.
The fact that twenty-five out of
every one hundred American mar
riages end in divorce was cited in
support of the new freedom.
Professor Smith predicted the
passing of the old-fashioned fam
| lily and based. this prediction on in
creased divorce and birth control.
He viewed this situation with hope
rather than alarm as one of the
signs of increased individualism in
the face of the super-organization.
Human individuality is expressing
itself as never before" he declared
ut is through liberty that we ex-
pect to attain the maximum of life.
| This liberty may not be incon-
sistent with organization, for al
ready it is much more prevalent in
the great metropolis than on Main
Street.
In closing, the professor pleaded
for greater social control brought
about by the evolutionary process of
education and expressing itself in
democratic forms that will permit
of both organization and individual
liberty.

North Carolina Case to Be

encouragement was seen today
by attorney-generars assistants de-
tending conStitutionanty of the In
diana chain store license law" in
a recent North Carolina court de-
cision upholding a similar chain
store tax law in North Carolina.
Trial of the Indiana case, filed by
Lafayette Jackson, owner of more
than 200 Standard groceries in In
dianapolis, in federal court Jan. 2,
is being awaited anXiously by state
officials, in view of the fact that a
decision unfolding the law would
help relieve the state aid school fund

lection. of store license fees.
Fees Held Up
Temporary injunction, entered by
agreement pending trial of the case,
has prevented collection of licenses
estimated at $25O,OOO for 1929. Fees
under the chain store law in 1880
would raise an additional $550,OO0.

W. Hufsmith, assistants to the In

The North Carolina suit was filed
by the Great Atlantic and Pacific

Scale Different
Apparently the only substantial
difference in the North Carolina
law, attorneys said, was the fact
that it provided a fiat tax of $50 on

amended. He admitted that Minot
needs some sort Of flood relief but
wanted to hold down the expenses.
