designed by the Creator to be the particular charge of the Department of the Interior al- though find no reference to them in the Book of Genesis.
 Just what are the proposals of the Presi- dents Committee concerning conseYation in the reorganization plan of the executive de- partments? First, it says that conservation today represents major purpose of our Gov ernnfent and recommends that it be made department of Government to replace the present Department of the Interior, as pro- posed than two years ago. As to the general purpose of the proposed Department of Conservation, the Committee says that it is to advise the President with regard to the protection and use of the natural resources of the Nation and the public domain; to ad- minister the public lands parks, territories, and reservations, and enforce the conserva- ton laws with regard to public lands and mineral and water resources
 The Committee makes wise observation regarding Government namely, that it is going concern and not a static institution. Each activity it says had it's period of nt- tiation and development and new activities should be organized rather completely on the basis of purpose so that that purpose may be the central driving force of the organization" This is exactly the opposite to what oppon- entS of a consolidation of conservation activi- ties would have it.
 
 tion is administrative and not political; there fore, authority should be delegated to the Chief Executive, within general limitations, to go forward with it.
 Whatever may be the outcome of the proposf or a Department of Conservation the Secretary hit Ipon at least one happy thought for which he wi ind plenty of support, at least in Alaska That he fact that the sooner some of us get away fror he false premise which has germinated through tn ears that certain resources were created for tn Department of Agriculture, others for the Depart nent of Commerce and still others for the Depart nent of Interior the we will gain intelli ent approach to the problem of conservation fo se The attitude too often reflected in de 'artments that they have dispensaton from tn Almighty defeats the very end of intelligent conser 'aton and makes the word a distasteful to thos outside of government service The following word If Secretary Ickes worthy of cataoguing for ire uent reference by those who have the actual handln 'f our natural resources in the different depart nentS:

concerned-the large, old Roy d
Titcomb building at Morley and
East and the former Cheshire
Brothers garage building in the
rear Of that structure. Both have
much floor space and nearby is a
block on East street that could be
roped off as a midway. However.
the Grand avenue location is pre-
ferable, and it is believed it can be
obtained.
The 1887 show will pribably be
of three or four days duration, in
stead of five days as last year, and
the parade, which was one Of the
real big features last spring, will be
held on either a Saturday or Sun
day. Holding the parade on a school
day last year kept many folks from
over the state from witnessing the
procession.

We Compliment You, Elks!

The Nogales international desires to publicly COM
pliment the Elks Lodge OH it's decision to sponsor
Frontier Nights this year.
The Elks sponsored the first annual Frontier
Nights celebration last spring and as we have often
said, it was great success.
We feel sure that the 1887 Frontier Nights will be
even more successful than last years and that from
there will be Frontier Nights in the border
metropolis each year
An annual event is big thing for any community
1t stimulates business gives the people something to
look forward to in the way Of amusement and if pro-
perlv advertised through motorcades, and publicity
in the papers, attracts hundreds of visitors.
What few mistakes the sponsors made last year will
prove beneficial this year Last years show was just
starter, in other words it was poneerino Frontier
NIGHTS each wear Will become bigger and better and
Morales will ALWAYS remember the Flks for inaup1,-
ratino movement that broueht about greatly
needed annual celebration on the border

House Shortage To Become More Acute

Nogales should lose time in building more
homes
The house shortage existing here now will become
even more acute next winter as result of what the
residents Of the middle west have been going through
the past year.
year ago those folks experienced an unusually
cold winter cold in fact that the ground froze to
such depth that trees and other vegetation, many
years old, were killed
Last summer they went through severe drought
and to add to their troubles they in the throes
of the worst flood disaster in the history of the
tion.
Thousands of persons now homeless will not want
to rebuild in district raped hard in one year by
extremely cold weather, drought. and floods They
will flock to the land of sunshine in the great South
west.
Nogales will share with Tucson, Phoenix southern
California towns, and other places, in getting many
OF those middle westerners settlers if housing ac-
comodations are made available this year

One Ounce Of Radium

The Governor General and the Prime Minister OF
Canada have just ceremoniaized notable increase
in the production of radium in Canada during the
past three years. Total productions one ounce. Mark
ct value: 81 100000:
With this addition the worlds supply of radium
is about twenty five ounces, not enough to make
up two-inch cube II is scattered widely but the
whereabouts the ownership and the pedigree of al
most every particle are record There is possible
secret store in the hands Of the Belgans who held
world monopoly until 1929 when Gilbert LaBine dis
covered the Eldorado mine on Great Bear Lake
Radiu1n is pure element in a violent state OF dis
ntegraton It's atoms are constantly exploding with
frghtful force but their number great that SCI
entists compute will take $4,000 years before every
atom of any given particle of radium has exploded.
millionth of an ounce of radium injected into a
human body is enough to cause death by the disin-
tegration of the tissues Yet it is this ability to de-
stroy living tissues which makes radum valuable in
fighting cancer. If radium can be focused upon
malignant growths. the cancer is demolished
About one out of ten persons who reach the age OF
thirtv-five will die of cancer Because there is so little
radm verv few cancer victims will be able to rece
i've radium treatment Every new radum unit, there
fore promises relief for thousands Hence the extra
ordinary importance of the discovery of radium in
Canada and the official celebration Of the mining
and refining of the first ounce.

A Comparison Of Blessings

While it is most natural to grumble when things do
not suit, the bad weather that has come to Arizona
this winter is trifling affair compared with what
the people in the Ohio and Mississippi owlands are
enduring. We complain about bit of snow and some
unaccustomed inclement weather we are discouraged
and dlsgr'lntled about the invasion of the flu but still
consider the blessings we enjoy.
We can go to our homes eat at our own tables and
sleep in our own beds Our clothes are dry our fam
lies are safe. Even when i'll can he i'll in comfort
Contrast such easy conditions with what people in the
many flooded cities are enduring where homes are
under water families separated. and only emergency
facilities available for the sick The comparison
should shame all Of us who would comnlain about
what we have bad in Arizona this winter (Arizona
