II Is Vial

INAINorOkI Is vital
Away back in Thomas Jeffer-
sons administration the Govern
ment of the United States, realiz-
ing that they could not build a
unified nation without means of
on and transportation
between its different parts, began
a program of highway building
over the Alleghenies. The State
of New York, fearing the diver
sion of the commerce of the new
ly-opened West to the ports Of
Baltimore and Philadelphia, set it
self to work to provide water
transportation, by digging the Erie
Canal from Buffalo to the Hudson
River at Albany. The Common
wealth of Pennsylvania cut a canal
from the headwaters of Ohio to
the Delaware. Maryland had
earlier built a canal to connect the
Ohio watershed with that of the
Potomac.
When the steam locomotive was
developed and railroads began to
be built, again it was the province
of the Government to encourage
the development of this mode of
transportation; and most of the
main line railroad mileage in the
United States was constructed with
the aid of public funds, Federal
State or local. And the newest
form of transportation, the air
plane, has been brought to its
present state of efficiency and
safely largely by Government aid.
We think that the development,
perfection and maintenance of
means of transportation and COM
munication is one way of spend
ing public money which not only
meets with least resistance from,
taxpayers who have to provide the
funds, but furnishes the most last
ing and valuable asset to the ma
ton and its component units. W,
approve of all the programs of
highway improvement and extern
sion, and we approve, also, of the
way in which the Federal Govern
ment, through the RIG, is help
ing the railroads to improve their
systems.
There is something that appeals
to the Imagination in the efforts of
the railroads to provide swifter.
more comfortable travel. The
new streamlined, air-conditioned
trains which several lines are be.
ginning to put into operation, sug-
gest that the railroad is not obso-
lete. 1t never will be. 1t can
provide services which neither the
motercar nor the airplane can give.
We do not think any of these has
reached perfection, any more than
anything else is perfect. We be-
lieve it is in the public's interest
to help the further improvement
and development of all of them.

MR.. ROPER IS
ING

We find encouragement for
those who have been alarmed by
the threats of some members of
President Roosevelt's Administra-
ton in the recent speech by Secre-
tary of Commerce Daniel C. Rop-
er. Mr.. Roper does not. believe
the present program of the Gov
eminent is toward the complete
Specialization of America, the stiff
ling of individual initiative and the
reduction of everybody to the
position of a dependent of the
State.
"The question will continue to
be asked" said Mr.. Roper,
whether the Federal Government
under this Administration plans Or
proposes to increase permanently
bureaucracy and Federal control
of business, to the extent of de-
stroying our economic system by
eliminating profits in business, and
thu submerging and imprisoning
human initiative, acknowledged TO
be the greatest asset in the build
ing of our country and the devel-
oping of our trade and commerce,
Certainly no one with the propel
knowledge of conditions can in.
terpret in the Recovery Program
such an intention or objective on
the part of the present Administra-
ton. To think otherwise is to
say that a Government under
which people have advanced most
and attained most should be ex-
changed for a form under which
people advance least"
We hope that MI. Roper spoke
with the f II knowledge and in
dorsement Of the responsible head
of the Federal Government. One
trouble we have in trying to I'M
derstand what Washington is
driving at, sometimes, is that so
many things are said, with the ;m-
plcation that they represent
the Presidents views, which do
not conform in any way to Mr..
Roper's utterances.
We do not see how anybody but
a rabid Marxist can quarrel with
Mr.. Roper's point Of view. We
trust this may not turn out to be
another of those utterances which
represent only one mans ideas and
which are not to be taken as COM
hitting the Administration to any
thing.

as the speaker of the evening. MIR.
Church spoke in an entertaining vein
of his vacation trip to California and
into old Mexico last month. He said
there was not the slightest doubt but
that Sinclair would be elected governor
of California and that he would of
course attempt to put into effect his
EPIC plan-to end poverty in Cali
fornia. Mr.. Church said he had talked
with bankers for whom he had form
erly worked and they told him that
already capital is getting ready to leave
the state for fear Of what Sinclair
plans will do to their investments and
that eastern capital looking for invest
ment is now fighting shy of California
The speaker urged his hearers to keep
in touch with developments in Cali
fornia as he considered it would be in
teresting and highly educational. Mr..
Church said conditions In California
are very bad, the state is badly in debt
and there is much unemployment and
suffering.
Mr.. Church visited several cities in
Mexico near the border and said they
were in desperate financial condition
since the defeat of prohibition in the
United States. Mr.. Church also visited
various places in Oregon, Washington
and Idaho on his trip. He said that
after this trip he was convinced that
business conditions were the best in a
section lying between Spokane and
Libby and in one or two other small
sections in Washington. He closed his
talk with the remark that people living
in this favored section have little real
ization of the seriousness of conditions
in the cities and elsewhere.

from the government, making the
building cost the county S52,500. Such
an expenditure would cost the average
taxpayer only very small sum per
year-most of them paying either less
than a dollar or little over a dollar
a year
Mr.. WEIGH also stated such build
ing would lend permanency and stabil-
ity to the county, and it would make
safe from fire records that cost the
county several thousand dollars to OBJ
tain when the county was created and
that if destroyed by fire could not now
be replaced for any sum.
Lions William Herbert and Paul
Church also spoke in favor of the pro-
posal and it was finally moved that the
Lions take up the matter of informing
the voters of the county just what
would be involved if new court house
should be built. A motion was made
that committee of three be appointed
to carry on this work of informing the
voters in cooperation with the Libby
Commercial club and other civic organ
izations and the Lions to expend $500
to meet their share of the necessary
expense. Lud Ludvikson volunteered

BLAZE
NEAR CONTROL

LOS ANGELES, July %. UH -
Exhausted hordes of CCC and for
est service workers combating a
raging brush and timber fire in the
Sierra Madre mountains near here
took renewed hope today when their
superiors reported that the blaze
probably would be completely un-
der control by noon.
Great billows OF smoke lowering
over the downtown section Of Los
Angeles we're mute evidence of the
disastrous fire which already had
denuded more than 2200 acres of
virgin brush and timberland in the
vicinity of Mt. Lowe and destroyed
an undetermined number of noun
tain homes.
More than 400 men had been
treated for minor injuries and ex-
| haustion in the 72 hours the blaze
! had been raging.
1t was impossible to estimate the
| damage with any accuracy. Some
officials hazarded guesses that the
final toll would be above the half
million dollar mark.
Several hundred acres Of timber
land were sacrificed during the
night in backfling operations which
checked the fire along several
fronts.
A strong wind which sent the
flames dashing toward the famous
Mt. Lowe Alpine tavern and scenic
railway died down at dawn and
progress of the blaze apparently
had been checked more than a mile
from the inn.
The forest service officially re-
ported only two mountain homes
destroyed by fire. Numerous other
more isolated cabins might have
been swept away, officials admit
ted.
Vigilance of Pasadena and Los
Angeles fire department crews h
,, the Arroyo Seco canyon was cred
tied with saving scores of homes.
Both cities furnished fire trucks
and many thousand feet of hose
to aid the harassed forest service
crews.
