Individual Welfare
As Main Defense

Told U. S. Doesn't Want
Permanent Jobless Roll

~ the Associated Press.
GRAND RAPIDS. Mich. Dec. g.
Paul v. McNutt, Federal security ad-
ministrator, told vocational educa-
tors here last night that "the first
line of our defense IS the morale,
health, enlightenment and economic
security of the individual citizens OF
the Nation"
Addressing the annual banquet OF
the American Vocational Associa-
ton, he said the Nation will rise or
fall "by the enlightenment and good
citizenship of the average man or
woman"
"Our country will never resign it.
self to the idea of permanent unem-
ployment," Mr.. McNutt said. Nor
will we trade the security of work
at which the workman is competent
for any Government guaranteed
dole"
Stressing the Importance of estab-
fishing "occupational competence"
In individuals, Mr.. McNutt warned
that a trend toward a later 'em-
ployment age" for youth, evident be-
fore the depression, is likely to con-
tinue for some time to come.
Even with the return Of greater
prosperity and industrial activity"
he said, 1T will be some time before
we are able in our economy to pro-
vide jobs in private industry for all
the youth who need and want the
self sustaining opportunity of wage
earnings"
Mr.. McNutt commented that this
situation "raises vital question as
to public policy involving both edu-
cation and employment" He said
that continued unemployment of
youth is in part the result of lack Of
suitable schools and colleges.
Each State" he said, must con-
tinue in the future as in the past to
be free to work out for itself the re-
adjustment of its program of Sec
ondary education which are neces-
sary to meet the occupational needs
Of young people"

to 1858, the yellow metal played
tremendous part.
This era ended with the Civil
war.
Our territory, in the north
western corner of the nation, nat
urally did not figure in itself as a
battle-ground of the war. War
was remote from us-more re-
mote, even, than was the last
World war.
But, indirectly, this territory
played tremendous part-be-
cause it was out here in the will
derness that many of the leaders
Of the conflict received their early
training, in camp life, and in ac-
tual combat with our Indians.
Here are just few of the great
Civil war names associated with
our state:
General Grant-at Fort Vancou-
yer in 1853.
General heridan-battled In
dians in Yakima in 1856.
General Mcclellan - attempted
Cascade road survey, 1854.
Captain Wilkes-famed Union
ship commander.
General Pickett - who won our
San Juan pig war"
And our own great Governor
Isaac Stevens-he must be re-
membered.
A full general in the Civil war,
he died in battle. carrying the
flag which had been shot from a
troopers hands.
The First Washington Volunteer
Infantry was part of the Union
army, of course, but it saw service
only on the Pacific coast.
The Civil war brought about
great changes in our nation. With
the troublesome slavery issue set
tied, Washington was ready to join
the nation in an era of industrial
development. With our rich, fer
tile soil, our great fish-filled wa
tiers, our green forests, this terri
tory was ready to step out in the
front rank in that march to pros
perity.
NEXT: Founding of Tacoma.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1939-06-09

Gold! 1t has ever lured men on
to new lands.
So 1t was, that while the excite
ment of the Indian war in Wash
ington was taking place, down in
California a great gold rush was
going on. In one year, $4,000 men
rushed to the gold fields.
This great western wave was
bound to help oregon and Wash
ington.
I'VE need timber shouted Cali
fornia--and men worked from sun
up to shutdown in Washington
woods to supply that need.
For the first time, the tremen-
dous value of our great forests
was being felt. California's gold
brought prosperity to our north
west.
Then up in the Fraser river
country. in British Columbia, more
gold was found-and although the
discovery sent many men away
from Washington for while, the
discovery brought more to the ter
ritory, and those who did leave
nearly all returned.
That was in 1857. The next
year, in our own Okanogan dis
trict, more gold was found, and
more miners came.
As the years have passed, gold
has become less important prod
uct of this state-but in the great
age Of gold discovery, from 1s4s

"You could have done them before this. Why didn't your"
 "Well, would have, but mother always has something for me to do."
 Like going to the movies last night and hanging around Mikes place after school. I saw you"
 "Now, now," said mother. T would rather do everything myself than have you all fussing this way. Go along, all of you. I'll do the dishes, as usual.
 "I'd help you," said father, "but it's lodge night and I haven't my report ready"
 Mother smiled wearily. This fam- lily of hers, so full of good intentions but 50 woefully ignorant of her burdens.
 She slept on it and then decided to try reform. She got breakfast and then put on her wraps. A note on the hall table said briefly, T am called away for the day."
 A Drastic Step
 She went on a long bus ride. She returned to town and sat through a movie. She had lunch and dinner with friends the family would not think of calling. She spent the even- ing playing bridge.
 At ten o'clock that night she walked in. The house was what she had expected. A mess.
 She told, of course, quite calm ly, where she had been. "It was either that or an asylum or hospital. I choose the cheapest" she said. T see that you got along beautifully"
 But they told her 1t was terrible. She listened to a whole hour of grievances. Then she said smoothly. T think shall go tomorrow, too. It did me so much good"
 Then Dorothy and Ted said, If you could just stay home, mother, we would help you every way we can." And father added, 'I'll leave the car. I can use the train . Mother smiled wisely and said, "All right. I'll stay"
