1t were news from Ethiopia, or some

iThis Is a city that would make a
goAod Communist gnash his teeth, shat
ted them, hurry to Lenin's tomb, num-
blei MARKHAM prayers and butt his head
against the walls of the Kremlin.
First, the whole city belongs to
The | lumber company. Nobody else
ownA or can own house or any other
property.
But no worker is idle, rents are
low, pAices in the company store are
lower Nhan in any big city, and for
mountain climbing your narrator
bought Wonderful heavy socks, striped
alternately red, white and blue, pa
triotic enough to make a true Com
munist mbunt his soap box and ask
the crowdA If any, what the world is
coming to.
It is good news that congress has
gone home >at last really and truly
gone home TO stay, heaven permit
ting, until early next year.
Until the fire is out, and you count
the furniture carried out on the lawn,
YOU cannot know just what the fire
has done to YOU. This session Of con-
gress seems to have been a pretty
good fire. The San Francisco Exam
liner tells you that congress spent. In
its short life,J just $10,256, 25S, 928O6.
or, spelled out, ten billions two hun
dred and fiftylsix millions two hun
dred and fifty-ekght thousand nine hum
dred and twenty-eight dollars and six
cents. Who do you suppose got the
six cents?
Congress disobeyed the President
only twice in the. session. The SEN
ate refused to put this country in the
World court. Can; you imagine what
that World court would do to us now,
In connection with this Ethiopian
marauding expedition?
Second, congress-. in both houses,
OVERRIDE the supp osed wish of the
President by passing . neutrality res
olution, making it mandatory for the
President to forbid shipments Of am
munition to any nation at war.
! Ethiopian rains are ending for this
year and Mussolini is ready to go shop
ping for African land. France and
England, now virtuously indignant,
have taken almost everything, but the
cool, high tablelands of Ethiopia offer
good territory for Italians.
To other nations Mussolini says:
keep your hands off unless you want
war In Europe. Let me do my
fighting in Africa. Know when you
are we'll off," He knows that France
wants no war; that England, still Ndi-
costing the anaconda supper Of the
last war, could not send her young
men to war, even If she were foolish
enough to want war. The young men
would not fight.
You know, now, why Mussolini as
sembled half a million fighting men,
that could not possibly be needed for
an Ethiopian foray that airships can
attend to. He wanted Europe to know
that he was ready for a real war IL
anybody wanted 1t.
California's viglante attack on ex-
IRENE radicals is thoroughly organized.
under central command, with details
of handpicked rifle marksmen, intel
ligence squads, and strong armed
squads.
The American Civil Liberties union
will bring suit on behalf of alleged
Communists, tarred and feathered, and
offers $1,000 reward for the conviction
of any vigilant of felony.
The vigilantes declare their inten-
ton to wear no masks or disguise
saying, ave shall pick up our men In
broad daylight. The whole country is
behind u.s."
More interesting than anything ir
the northern part Of California, only
30 miles from the Oregon border, Ii
tall, snow-covered Mount Shasta, rls
ing toward the sky more than 14,0O(
feet.
When you travel be sure to visi
that mountain. You will find it wortl
while. All around its foot the grea
pines and frs are crowding, as though
seeking refuge and protection from
the giant sawmill and Its 1,2OO mel
that eat trees by the hundreds Of thou
sands every year.
