not forget that those young men
were not just soldiers and sailors

warriors, fighting for a principle

What Armistice Day Means to Her Told
By Tacoma Woman Who Served Overseas

Editor, The Times: Armistics
meant peace TO the American wo-
men who served in Europe. The
signing Of the peace treaty be-
tween the allies and the enemy
would bring permanent peace to
the world, we hoped. II did not.
The world has never known greater
slaughter Of the innocent than has
been going on in Europe almost
continuously since the Versailles
treaty was signed.
Flakn On Draws
Overseas women are not think
ing on this Armistice day. 1899, in
terms Of war debts. or broken
pledges or strapped treaties. We
are thinking Of the sight Of flags
flying and veterans with empty
coat sleeves parading to martial
music, and we are asking ourselves:
why repeat our useless entrance

The proposal would make a ma
tional park Of 5000 square miles
along the tip OF the Cascade range
from the Canadian border to with
In a few miles Of Columbia
river.
The Northwest Conservation
league, affiliated with the emer-
gency conservation committee In
New York city. supported the
plan, but has not yet launched a
campaign for 1t.
Opponents said the suggested
park would divide the state by
driving a wedge through the mid
die Of Washington"
Washington state chamber Of
mines added Its opposition to the
park. The chamber went on rec
ord for mo more bottling up Of
state resources until we know
what we're bottling."
Fear for Highways
Opponents said the park would
prevent development Of mineral,
water. grazing and other resources
in the area. Mining interests said
1t would be five years before the
Cascade summit was sufficiently
explored TO know all the treasure
ii holds.
Some opponents feared cross
state highways. such as the one
through Snoqualmie pass, would
be closed IL the area was taken
over by the federal government.
The Northwest Conservation
league, however, scoffed at the
idea. There u no more reason
to fear federal authorities closing
Snoqualmie pass than there has
been In the case Of Naches pass, "
the league said. "A strip Of 10
miles Of the latter highway passes
through Mount Rainier national
park, and no motorist yet has been
barred or forced to pay toll.
Secs Death Blow
I'VE do not see the necessity Of
shutting out mining"
But NJ. II. Van Nuyes, publicity
director for West Coast Mineral
association, thought differently.
The creation OF such . park
would be q death blow to north
west mining progress" Van Nuyea
said.
ut Is easy to see just what
would happen If this deal 10 put
over. We have q perfect example
of it In the Olympic national park
which took over coo, 900 acres in
the Olympics. Mining Is virtually
abolished In the district because
the mining allowed for q short
time in certain strips of the park
cannot begin to tap its natural re-
sources.
Argue Against Plan
The same thing would hold
true II the government grabbed
this whole strip Of our state for
park purposes"
Opponents of the proposed pari,
also said hunting would be prohib.
tied In the area.

COUNCIL UNABLE
TO MEET CITY OBLIGATIONS

ANCHORAGE - Bills Of $4,000
and only $1,000 cash available tc
meet them is the dilemma facing the
Anchorage city council.
In a meeting TO consider the sit
uation and plan for next year,
Robert NJ Mills, city treasurer, re-
ported that the city is unable TO re-
lease its october payroll, cannot pay
the Anchorage Light and Power
company for electricity and cannot
turn over TO the Anchorage school
board sufficient funds for operation
of the schools and paying teachers.
When the council rejected a re-
quest by the school board for an
additional teacher for the elemen-
tary school staff needed to handle
a surplus of 35 students, Mrs. School
de of the board said. III you don't
want your children educated you
should hang out a sign to keep peo-
pie out of Anchorage
The council discussed for more
than an hour a proposal to increase
taxes during the forthcoming year
by say per cent by boosting the
assessed valuations on all real es-
tate. Individual increases in valu-
atoms have alrady been made which
will add about $4,000 to the eitys
tax bill under the present taxing
Bet-up.
Tax Increases Proposed
Mills told the council tax revenues
We're $4,000 this year with 10
mill tax rate on IS per cent Of the
assessed valuation. By using the
same tax rate on 100 per cent Of
the assessed valuations. the tax
revenue would be increased to $685.
551.62. he said. The increase would
be sufficient to cover the deficit.
Il was pointed out, however, that
the proposal to increase tax reve-
nues next year would have no eff
feet on meeting the present finan-
cial situation in which the city has
two bills to pay with each dollar in
cash.
Financial surprises" were blam-
ed for the present plight of the city
and the following expenditures
without provisions. in the budget
were noted:
$500 on the Fourth avenue paw
ing project.
$25S5 on the F street sewer in
connection with the new federal
building.
$1,000 on the Eighth avenue
sewer.
In addition, city funds were used
to pay interest on paving bonds, al

POULTRY AND DAIRY FUTURE
FOR MATANUSKA VALLEY

JUNEAU - Half a dozen truck
farmers could supply the existing
demand along the Alaska rail belt.
Ross L. Shelly, superintendent OF
the Matanuska colony at Palmer
told Territorial Highway Engineer
William A Hesse during a recent
visit of the latter TO the valley. But
as far as poultry and dairy products
are concerned. the present colony
cannot scratch the surface of the
present demand. Shelly told Hesse.
Hesse. who recently returned from
the westward, reported extensively
on doings at Palmer. Colony products
under the brand name of "Matanus-
ka Maid are now being marketed.
They are Of uniform character and
the highest quality, he said.
Eggs are automatically graded By
weight into small, medium, large
and extra large sizes and each pack.
age is dated. The egg output is soon
expected to reach 5000 dozen per
month. which will supply a little
more than one-half OF the present
demand. The demand for butter is.
hopelessly beyond the present pro-.
duetion and the fresh beef, pork
mutton and poultry market is as yet
untouched. Hesse found.
Cottage cheese manufactured at
the colony is mixed with pure cream
and is said to excel anything OF its
kind on the market.
Market For Crauberries
A market has recently developed
for wild Alaska low bush cranber-
ries and strange as It may seem this
market is in the United States. This
is easy TO understand since the Al
aska low bush cranberry is the very
finest known. This, of course, has
no immediate relation to crop farm
ing but it furnishes some extra cash /
10 the farmer, none the less.
Vegetables are not only of su-
perior quality but are all uniformly
graded and cleaned Head lettuce is
of a particularly excellent quality
and unbleached Utah celery is not
only better than that grown in Utah !
but TO that grown anywhere.
OF course the growing OF head I
lettuce. celery. broccoli, potatoes and
other vegetables will not support
an even moderately sized farm
population. Hesse said. yet it con-
tributes to their sustenance and |
support
Roads Good-Too Good
Through the great generosity on
the part of the federal government !
toward the Matanuska colony, the
valley has the finest and most ex-l
tensive road system of any area in
the Territory. OF which the less for
tunate districts are constantly rel
minding the road bilding agencies, % /
Hesse said.
In my opinion the Matanuska
valley project has been the source of
complaints, quarrels and protests. |
not because there is anything wrong
with the valley but because there
has been too much charity and spoon
feeding on the part of the govern
ment, simply another case of an oy-
erly-pampered child.
There is nothing in this lifej
worth while that is to be attained
without some human effort A planI
that would have contemplated more !
individual effort on the part OF the
colonists and less coddling on the
part of the government would have
cost less. would have been sounder
fundamentally and would probably
have produced better results"

Now that homes are being built

taxpayers. I would rather see the

than TO see the taxpayers hard-hit.

Liquor Revenues Down

Revenues from liquor licenses
have been S4675 instead of the an
ticipated $13,50O.
To add to the financial woes o
the city, the annual audit revealed
that what was believed to be a bal
ance of $4,000 on hand at the end
OF the last fiscal year was actually
to be a deficit Of $4,000 because
$4,000 in city hall bonds had been
sold and the money used for general
expenses.
Councilman Bill Stolt led the op-
position to an increase of one-third
in the tax bill handed to property
owners in Anchorage. He commended
that it was too great" an increase.
Stolt said the natural growth of
the city through the construction of
new homes that will bring new tax
revenues, and increased use of pub
