HOT AIR DEVICES

''5-Year Program" Now 10
Years Old, Fails to Provide
for Modern Furnacing

Thirty-five school buildings in
Washington hold antiquated heat
ing plants, which ought to be re-
placed at the earliest possible
moment.
School officials today pointed
out that the "five-year building
program" begun some 10 years
ago, providing for replacement
of ancient plants, has neglected
these 35 buildings.
These schools, some of them
dating back to 1854, are fur
nished with old-fashioned hot
air plants, instead Of the new

TOO MUCH ALARM.

There's entirely too much viewing
with alarm" and not enough pointing
with pride" in this country. Too many
people running around with long faces
and dropping mouths Too many ready
to believe that the republic is either
going to die or blow up. The fact is,
it is not going to do either. Here in our
own community we have entirely too
many gloom spreaders, and other towns
are in the same fix These prophets
of gloom around Carmi who are still
spreading their hands and making
grim prophecies are doing more to
forestall good times than any other
class.
One citizen who goes about his work
with hearty good will and who looks
into the future with hope and conf
dence is worth all Of the gloom spread
ers who walk the face Of the earth.
But just one optimist in a community
is not enough. The need right now is
for more men and women who can and
will point with pride" instead of 60
ing around viewing with alarm. =

WHAT DOES RECOVERY MEAN?

What limit in definition can be placed
upon this word we hear d dozen times
a day Recovery The answer ap-
proximates picture of conditions that
will obtain when success crowns the
Presidents unemployment program.
Recovery as it relates to business is
not difficult to comprehend Under the
mighty reign of what we believed was
prosperity we loaned seven billions a
year abroad to finance our sales of half
that sum, and as we stopped lending so
we stopped selling, and now we start
from taw. So we require business re-
covery, and it depends upon absorp-
ton Of about one fourth as many
workers as are now employed. Shrewd
business executives, small and large, be-
lieve that unemployment on that basis
will be sound investment, that with the
inevitable increase in buying power,
credit will do what it always has done,
move along with employment In that
case credit will be available
But after relief from the horror Of
the four years, it is the recovery of eco
nomic security that will count even
more with the average man; the re-
covery Of material well-being; mora
lasting assurance to the employer,
whose old embarrassing problems of
cost and distribution will be solved
through cooperation; to the worker; to
the housewife, Of whom in these last
perilous years we have lost sight en-
tirely. This sort of recovery it is evil
dent the President has had in mind
recovery of what man and woman
has right to call his soul.

CRIME CONDITIONS DUE TO
PUBLIC'S INDIFFERENCE.

Speaking under the auspices of the
United States Flag association, Mr..
George H. Dern, secretary of war,
voiced call to the American people
to rally to the support of the govern
ment in its fight to overcome crime.
Mr. Dern said there is scarlet
army" of over 100000 men and women
waging war against the safety and well
fare Of the American people. He urged
the people of the nation to arouse them
selves and fight as vigorously as the
colonists of l776 did in their fight for
freedom. Americans today are suffer-
ing greater oppression, he said, than
did the colonists when they threw off
the foreign yoke in the Revolution.
To us it seems the meat of Mr. Derns
remarks was contained in the state
ment that Existing conditions are due
to the indifference of the American
people We have long held that con-
viction and have been dumfounded by
the apparent indifference OF the peo-
pie of the nation to crime The aver
age American citizen goes sublinely
and indfferently on his way while laws
are being violated all around him and
while crimes of the most desperate ma
ture are being committed Apparently
the attitude has been that as long as
ones own personal life is not touched.
why worry. The result has been that
we are the outstanding criminal ma
ton of the world, holding the record
for murders and all other crimes Of
violence. So bold have the criminals
become that they openly invade our
largest cities and shoot down men,
women and children in broad daylight
in the heart of business districts
Secretary Dern surely spoke the
truth when he said, Existing conditions
are due to the indifference of the Amer
lean people.

CONFERENCE WITH MIR. WARDEN
CLEARED THE ATMOSPHERE

The conference held in Libby Tues
day between Libby and Troy men and
Mr.. o. S. Warden, chairman OF the
Montana state highway commission,
was unquestionably profitable one.
It was gratifying also that Mr.. George
Lanstrum of Kalispell and District
Engineer Donahue of the highway COM
mission were present.
The meeting cleared the atmosphere
considerably If it accomplished moth
ing more. Libby and Troy men under
stand more clearly just what the high
wav commission has been doing IN our
behalf and the program 1t has IN mind.
On the other hand, Mr.. Warden prob
ably has q somewhat better knowledge
of the great need of this district for
better highways and he, tpo, should
have a better understanding of the de-
sires of the men of this part OF the state
after comforting with them.
Two or three really important mat
ters were brought out in the confer
ence. Mr.. Warden did not hesitate al
all in going definitely and openly on
record in favor Of completion OF high
way No. 2 through this district and at
the earliest time possible with the funds
available. In some instances, he advised
local men how to proceed to obtain ap-
preparations other than those coming
from the state. There was one conclu-
sion easily drawn from Mr.. Warden's
attitude while here and that was one
Of friendliness to the highway needs
OF this district.
Another gratifying matter that came
out Of the conference was Mr. Warden's
statement, in reply to a question, that
undoubtedly highway No. would re-
main permanently where it is now 10

That was good news to the people OF

an intention to move this highway west
of Kalispell to routing farther south.
It was also gratifying to local men to
hear Mr.. Lanstrum make the statement
that he did At one time in the confer
ence he took occasion to obtain the
floor, when he stated openly that he
and the other men of Kalispel were
