about their own difficulties after reading the following extract from letter written by a Detroit father to one of !he leading newspapers of that metropolis and printed in it's columns a few days ago.
 ''In the richest country in the world" he wrote. i've, the citizens and makers of our country, are slowly dying of malnutrition.
 Our children are going to school without adequate clothing and food, 10 get the education to carry on our bur- dens after we are gone. Home less men eating from the gar bage can to keep body and soul together. In a civilized world our daughters are on the streets selling body and soul to get loaf of bread.
 "Just how long are we go- Ing to continue under this strain? 1 have been in Detroit seven years; am a married man with two children. When 1 applied for relief, I was turned down because only had two children to starve.
 ''Who is going to take a hand in this struggle of hu- manity? Is the government waiting for it's citizens to go out and take the necessities of fife by stealing, plundering and breaking the laws of CO., clety to subsiSt?"
 Again we say as in the ar- .icle printed above this one that such grave conditions are 3 grave indictment against hat much-vaunted thing we ,all civilization. And we say further that in the light of he conditions pictured by his distraught father as ex- sting in the industrial heart of America, we of Hyder who are lacking no essentials of existence, are lucky indeed.

Fear Our Worst Foe

When the economic crash came in the fall of 1929 there were logical reasons for it to a certain extent, but not to the extent which panic-strick- en spectators and others im- agined. It is true that values had been inflated beyond req son, there had been over-pro- duction and over-buying, but calmness and sound judgment might have prevented the dis aster which followed in the wake of a paralyzing fear which suddenly seized busi- ness industry.
 Now, with everything thor oughly deflated, production drastically curtailed, and mil lions in need of commodities which they cannot earn the money to buy, fear still keeps capital hoarded away instead of being used to start the wheels of industry going again.
 The unemployed cannot buy; the employed will buy only necassaries, because of fear of losing their jobs, the manu- facturer fears to borrow to re- sume operations because of the lack of a market; the banker probably would not lend anyway, through fear that the manufacturer would fail. Thus operates the vicious circle.
 Yet, with an ever increasing population, the material needs of the country are greater than ever; intrinsic values have not been wiped out; for est, field and mine are ready to yield natures gifts; factory and market place are prepar- ed to function as before-but fear keeps timid though abundant capital from putting willing hands to work.
 That such a situation should continue to exist simply doesn't make sense. It's continuance even so long as to the present is a grave indictment against the thing we call civilization.

TEN YEARS OR 50 AGO
From the Hyder Alaska Miner
 January 25, 1922

Sunday in a fire which de- stroyed a small cabin near the southern boundary of the Lindeborg townsite, which they had occupied for two or three days. Both men intended leaving for Ketchikan the same evening. The fire was discovered about 10 o'clock by John Sweeny who was walk ing by on First Street. He heard an explosion and, look ing back, saw smoke issuing from the cabin. He ran back and opened the door of the cabin.
 A mass of flame struck him, singeing his hair and scorch- ing his face. He detected a strong odor of gasoline or ker- osene fumes. He was joined a few moments later by Arthur Grove, but the two could do nothing. Oren F. Hill then ar rived with a fire extinguisher and reduced the flames to such extent that the bodies of the two men could be seen but they could not be removed nn- til the fire had burned out. Both men had gone home a few minutes before the fire oc- cured. It is believed that one of them had put oil in the stove, causing an explosion. Visitors to the cabin the pre- vious evening noticed a 5-gal- lon can of either coal oil or gasoline on the floor beside the stove.

FLOOD DISTRICT
PERIL SPREADS
Another Town MenaCed by
Break in LeVee.
BY United Press

BY United Press
JACKSON, Miss, Jan. 20.-An-
other town lay at the mercy of
flood water today as a gap in the
levee eighteen miles north of Belonzi
widened until it was beyond repair
and permitted fresh torrents to
sweep down on that community.
Greenwood, the other scene of a
battle to bolster levees, was being
flooded in north and east sections.
Many residents were forced to
abandon their homes. A convict
gang of 300 worked with citizens
there. Belonzi and Greenwood are
the two largest towns in the flood
area, having a combined population
Of $4,000.
Hundreds Of families remained
marooned in the Tippo basin, with
their plight becoming more serious,
due to slowness in removal. Despite
appeals for more boats, the number
still was inadequate to permit
prompt rescue.
The states latest move to aid the
stricken area came when Governor
Theo Bilbo designated one of the
Delta national guard companies as
a boat contingent to transport ref
ugees and food supplies. The Gov
ernor asked the legislature to equip
the company with three large barges
and fleet of cupboard motor boats.

Time to Rejoice

Modern man, hurrying to and
1V1 from his shop or Office by
street car or automobile, has lost
the contact with the heavens
which ancient man possessed.
Aren't the days getting short?"
he may remark, as ne turns on
the electric light over his desk or
workbench. But he does not
watch the heavens as did ancient
man.
The cave man had only the
light of the sun. Night was a
time to hug the Pickering fire at
the mouth Of the cave. And so
when the days grew shorter and
shorter. when the sun hung lower
each noon in the sky, ancient
man was worried.
What If the days continued for
ever to grow shorter? What if
some morning the sun failed to
appear at all?
And so, when the days began to
lengthen again, it was a time for
rejoicing. We should not be sur
priSed, therefore. to find ancient
man worshipping the sun, tim
ing his holidays 10 the seasons,
and celebrating the winter solstice
as an occasion for rejoicing.
The early Christian fathers
took this pagan holiday which
marked the winter solstice, and
With the gift for spiritualizing a
pagan holiday which the Jews
had shown on previous occasions,
turned 1t into the Christmas GLE
brakion which. We know.

THE OTHER FRANCE

One France temporarily has defaulted on the
debt. That was the excited chamber Of deputies
+ The other France is determined to make a fair
Settlement with the United States.
This other France is led by Premier Edouard
Herriot who went down CALAMITY to defeat for his
locals and who now gives the United States. through
the United Press association, new pledge that
France yet will pay.
n If any Americans find it difficult to understand
how there can be two Frances at the same time one
irresponsible and the other responsible let him
trast the attitudes this same debt problem of
congressional extremists on the hand with that
OF most American business men and newspapers on
the other hand
While the two legislative bodies are making dem
agogic faces at each other responsible bodies of
public opinion in both countries moving toward
sane settlement.
That remarkable and hopeful aspect of the stu
alton is that, despite hostile pressure Of various
kinds from their respective legislative bodies the
governments of France, Great Britain and the
United States are agreed on the necessity and fair
ness Of revising debt terms to meet conditions grow
ing out of the worst depression in history.
In the interest of arriving at such settlement it is
important that the public recognize two facts. The
foreign public should understand as the British and
French governments now apparently understand,
that outright cancellation is impossible
On our side, the American public should under
stand, as the Hoover administration understands
and congress does not, that the debtors will make
more payments under the old agreement.
s. The British notes made clear, and the British
governments statement to the house of commons
Underlined the policy of making payments
after December until the United States negotiates
revision This also is the position of Herrot and the
noderates of France.
Great Britain made her December payment with
definite reservations and with the understanding
that there would be no unnecessary delay in open
ing effective negotiations for revision.
President Hoover has stated repeatedly his will
ingness to enter such negotiations. but he can do
nothing effective until congress removes its direct
ban against any change in debt terms.
Under the law, congress alone has power to re-
wise the debts Franklin D. Roosevelt is the present
leader of the party in virtual control of congress
If he will cooperate with Hoover for revival of
congressional debt commission to hear the debtors
pleas for what they are WORTH the forces of reason
in France and elsewhere abroad may be able to pre-
vent permanent default

SCIENCE
The Sun Keeps Pledge
BY DAVID DIETz

THE days grow shorter and
Il shorter. Each morning the
sun comes over the eastern hor-
lion little later. Each noon he is
a little lower in the south. Each
day the sun will set a little earlier
This will continue until Dec.
81, when the sun reaches its
'farthest SOUTH" the winter SOL
stice. Then the sun will begin to
climb the heavens again, appear
ing little higher in the sky each
noon. Each day the sun will rise
a little earlier and set a little
later.
Of1cially, Dec. 81 is the first day
of winter. Months of cold weather
are still ahead, chill winds, snow
and ice. But in the behavior of
the sun there is the promise of
the return Of spring.
The sun says that the trees are
not dead, but only sleeping. The
sun promises to awaken them
again in due time. 1t even prom
ises the return Of the long, hot
lazy days of midsummer.
And that is the fundamental
reason why a day in late De-
cember was chosen for the cele-
bration of Christmas. Long before
the Christian era, a pagan holi-
day was celebrated at the time of
the winter soilstice. This pagan
holiday was day Of rejoicing
over the return Of the sun.
