The Nome nugget., 1939-06-09

Col. Lindbergh, believed by some to have fixed his home tenn porarily on foreign shore for the purpose of partial retire ment, and perhaps with a slight ly dampened ardor for his native land, has made it plain that he is far from being content with a shady seat on the porch, and that his desire to be of service has not waned. Following a crit ical survey, he tells a Congress sional committee that Germany has faster airplanes than the United States, and can turn them out more rapidly in mass production, even to the extent of 10000 year. He takes little stock in the idea that a heavy foreign bombing machine can cross the Atlantic and do daln- age here, but in a contest be- tween plane and plane, we would be likely to come out at the small end of the horn, i'm the long run. Efforts to foment dis cord between the United States and any foreign power are to be drowned upon, but Col. Lind bergh is not playing the part of propagandist or trouble maker. f, as he states, each fighting plane of the United States can be chased and overtaken by several planes of any one opposing pow CT, we are not in a position to claim supremacy in the air. Ii remains for wise heads to decide regarding the need for that SUI. remacy.

Why Do So Many Fail In Life?

The above question asked of a noted psy-
chologst, and here is his answer:
Finding fault with the other fellow but never
seeing own.
Doing as little as possible, and trying to get as
much as possible for it.
Spending much time showing up the other fell
lows weak points, and too little time correcting
Our own
Slandering those we do not like.
Procrastination-p putting off until tomorrow
something that we should have done day before
yesterday.
Deceit-talking friendly to the other fellows
face and stabbing him in the back as he
turns around.
False belief that smart enough to reap a
harvest of pay before sowing crop of honest SER
vice.
Disloyalty to those who have trusted us.
Egotism--the belief that we know it all, and
no one can tell us anything.
Last, but not least lack of necessary training
and education to enable to stand at the head
in our line of work.

An Enjoyable Party

The baseball games Manager Earle Eveland Of
the Twin City Opera House has brought here by
broadcast, for more than week. and the world
series which began yesterday, have been greatly
enjoyed by the large number locally who enjoy
this great national sport. These games are broad
cast through Mr.. Eveland's R. c. A. sound sys-
tenn But that is not all-the electric score board
which is so expertly managed the radio furnish
ed by the Twin City Electric company, and chairs
by the Miller company, all combine to add to the
enjoyment of the patrons of the games, which
is brought to the front of the Opera House in a
manner, second only in interest to that of being
at stadiums where the games being played.
Those who get so much enjoyment of this base
ball party, should be appreciative of what Mr..
Eveland is giving them gratis, and remember too,
that this fine service he provides, is at consider
able expense to him.

Please Don't Desecrate Monument

1t happens occasionally that young people use
the soldiers monument in the center of the
square, in a manner that should be prohibited.
They do it unthoughtedly are sure, because
we think too much of our young people to believe
that they would purposely do anything that
might border sacrilege. The monument
has in the past been used by them in connection
with initiatory exercises, and similar purposes,
and the stunts in connection with the monument
should be stopped.
Perhaps the young people should not be fault
ed SO much as those older-perhaps they have
never had impressed on them what the soldier
monument in the center of public square, and at
the head of Center street at the Common stand
for-what they represent, etc. The one in the
center of the square stands reminder of the
brave soldiers of the Civil war-the Grand Army
of the Republic, the who offered their lives
that this nation be not divided. The monument
placed there to commemorate their services
and sacrhce-and not something to be used in
what might be termed a cheap, silly manner

zig should fall to the Reich forces,
Poland within the last ten years
has developed Gdynia, just west of
Danzig, from a fishing village into
a thriving modern port of some
100000 population with harbor
that can accommodate 80 vessels, a
sea wall nine miles long, travelling
cranes, railroad tracks and ware
houses.
To defend this rich area, Poland
has an army which military experts
concede would be no match for
the German Reichswehr but which
should be able to hold any invader
at bay until possible help could
come from France, England and
Russia. Poland also has an air
force of 1900 planes and is quick to
point out that Berlin is only eighty
miles from the Polish border. There
is a chance Poland may outbluff
Hitler as it did in 1884. If not, the
Corridor could likely be the Sara
! lievo Of a new world war.
