HANFORD-WHITE BLUFFS TRACK
MEET

Wednesday, the Junior High went to
Hanford for track meet. The girls,
not having an organized team, played
baseball.
The baseball game ended in score
of $500 in favor of Hanford. Not much
enthusiasm for the game was shown by
the girls, track being the attraction.
The track meet, however, was much
better. The White Bluffs boys won by
a large score, Frenchy Ponsat making
most of the points. Eden Jones Of
Hanford was not able to compete in
many of the events as he had injured
his leg while at Benton City.

ZOOLOGY CLASS TAKES FIELD
TRIP

The Zoology students took field
trip during second and third periods
Tuesday, to a pond near Anderson's.
They discovered some specimens of the
following: water beetles and other wa
ter insects, damsel flies, sometimes
called mayhies, mud wasps, crane flies,
mosquito pupae, scorpions, red ants,
butterfly larvae, and some water mites.
So far, insect and animal life is
not so prominent as it would be if
the weather were warmer. Mr.. Ander-
son has very nice place for a zool-
ogy survey, for there are many types

markets and bring on a new crash of
values. But blaming it on speculation
is not quite hitting the. exact mark.
The real and paramount reason will
be found in the desire of all business
to protect itself against a devalued
dollar of the future, one outcome of
the managed currency which we so
obviously are going to have.
Manufacturers and dealers feel SAT-
er converting their money into goods
and commodities than possessing dol
lars of uncertain value. Knowing that
managed currency and the New Deal
program will still further enhance
price levels it is natural they should
prefer the solid anchor of necessary
materials which people must buy
against currency which may or may
not be worth much in the months to
come.
1t will do no good under the cir
cumstances for the administration or
others to criticize the trend. 1t is the
natural result of the course adopted.

FrOstburg Plans Scout Camp on
Piney Run Dam, This County

That a Scout camp for Frostburg
troops would be established on Piney
Run dam, in Garrett county, was an
nounced by scout leaders of that city.
A site has already been selected, it is
stated, and it is planned to make it
one of the most attractive camps in
Western Maryland.
The city officials are to be asked to
give a tract of land of about two
acres situated so that no structures
will be built to obstruct the view of
the lake from the scout cabin which
is to be built of logs.
The site of the swimming pool has
also been tentatively selected. 1t
will be on the Meese property below
the spillway of the Piney Run dam.
Scout leaders informed the Rotary
committee that the project is to be
for Girl Scouts as we'll as Boy Scouts,
and that an effort would be made to
secure cooperation of the entire COM
munity in the movement.

FLIGHT FROM THE DOLLAR.

The administrations concern over
rising price levels in advance of wage
increases is justiiable. Any other
course, however, could not possibly
have been expected. Since the govern
ment is so obviously planning to de-
value the dollar it is only natural that
the things which the dollar buys
should seek refuge in flight from the
dollar-anchor and thus bring on the
advances now being witnessed.
5 When the current upturn got under
way following the conclusion Of the
bank holiday it was predicted on the
natural demand arising from empty
shelves and warehouses. This demand
was backed by swiftly returning con-
fdence and the belief that the New
Deal program was going to turn
things along an upward course. 1t
has continued steadily until recently
and now it is beginning to show signs
of getting out of hand and becoming
virtually speculative in character.

WHY CREATE A FOOD
SCARCITY?

1t is distressingly obvious that the
main concern of the economist and
legislators who are attempting by ma
tional and international action to
raise wheat prices in not human well
fare but increased profits. Profits do
not insure human happiness OF even
prosperity. In fact, one of the under
lying causes of the present pitiful
plight of mankind is too much profit
in the hands of those engaged in nom
essential and in some cases uneco-
nomic pursuits. And what do we find
our practical thinkers urging as a
remedy for the fact that low
wages and tariff barriers have
lowered wheat prices and created an
unstable surplus? Do they see to
the root of the matter-that inability
of the peoples of the world to buy is
the reason there seems to be Sur
plus? We do not have too much
grain. Millions of people go hungry
every day. Thousands have died of
starvation in India and China in the
last ten years. Yet the remedy, say
the economist, is less wheat. Almost
as if in answer to their problem, and
yet making even more glazing the
inhumanity of crop destruction. and
limitation, comes a drought to Ameri-
cas- Middle West threatening to des-
troy acres and acres of growing grain.
Prices Immediately leap sensationally,
yet who is the gamer? Not the
farmer whose crop is ruined; not the
worker whose pittance must be spent
for higher-priced bread. The spec
ulators and brokers make the profit
and each continued day of the blister
ing drought is money in their pock-
cts and joy to their unproductive little
minds. But the farmer, with the love
of the soil and growing things in
his heart, is again the loser, for the
results of his labor are being des-
troyed before his eyes. Of what value
is dollar wheat to him who has no
wheat to sell or to him who has no
money with which to buy? Forecast
of approaching rain bring unloading
of grains on the market and rapidly
falling prices. Plenty is an evil;
scarcity a blessing; starvation an in
cident. Why has it not occurred to
these assiduous price-raisers that the
best and surest remedy for the NAL
ady of which they complain is to
develop a market for their wheat-all
they can produce of it? The extent
of the potential world market has
never even been probed. We do not
have over production. What we are
suffering from is underconsumption,
the inability to satisfy wants because
of lack of purchasing power. Of
course, the problem of opening and
creating new markets is not simple;
in many respects it is more involved
than the artificial stimulants and soda
tives now being experimental with.
1t might not be the final answer. But
it is sound and constructive. Why
not try it?
