OLYMP|C PARK
MADE LARGER
187,411 Acres Added
by Proclamation
of Roosevelt

wASHIN N-President
Roosevelt. by proclamation sign
ed Tuesday. added 1s7,4l1 acres
to the Olympic National park, in
creasing its acreage 10 s35.41i.
Former area Of the park was
$4,000 acres. The addition brings
the total acreage under the ma
tional park system to q, 004. s76.51.
The president explained in detail
why the additions were made.
Some persons in the Northwest,
he said, felt that withdrawal of
western acreages from the forest
service for the park might jeopar-
die the sustained yield of pulp
wood for paper mills on Puget
Sound and elsewhere on the Pa
cific coast.
A forest service survey.

pulp wood to maintain all
mills on Puget Sound and the
Pacific coast not only Mt their
present production level. but
at a level 80 per cent higher,
the president said.
The other question of fact, Mr..
Roosevelt said, was whether the
additions would include bona fide
'rain forests" in the park area.
The two strips in question, he
said, followed the valleys of the
Hob and Bogachiel rivers.
The main objective, he said, was
to preserve for the public the
rain forests in these areas-the
original virgin timber covered by
a heavy messy growth. Some
pensions said the rain forests ex-
tended to the east of higher slopes,
but it was found that this growth
did not fall into the category of
absolute rain forest.
The president said that he
hopes eventually to extend
the preserves in the Hob and
Bogachiel river valleys down
the Pacific slope to the ocean.
The proclamation, he said, still
leaves a margin of about 10000
acres which at some later date
might also be added to the Olym-
pic park.

ABOUT CONSCIENTIOUS DIRECTORS

The Citizen feels sure that the young
men of this country, between the ages spe-
Gifted in the Selective Service law, will not
echo the sentiment expressed by a few in
dividuals in other places.
For example, certain conscientious
objectOrs'' to war recently asserted that
they would not register. They declined
to comply in any way with the law evil
dentIy under the impression that such an
act would not be lin harmony with the
will of God"
The Selective Training and Service
Act makes allowances for conscientious
DIRECTORS but they are required to register.
The young men referred to set themselves
above all law but they expect to enjoy the
protection of this government.
While we are ready to admit the sin
cerity of some conscientious DIRECTORS we
do not think that they should be exempt
from registration, or that they should not
be required to perform nOn-military acts.
1t is strange that those who assert the
utmost, in the exercise of individual free
dom, are opposed to any exertiOn to main
tain the rights of free men. Let us assume
that every American, anxious to maintain
liberty, becomes so involved in his thinking
as to oppose any restraint upon his alb
sOlute freedom. 1t would not be long be-
fore an alien conqueror would direct his
life
Conscientious directors, who refuse to
register, or to perform non-military tasks,
should be promptly put in prison. This
will give them ample time for reflection
ard to realize that liberty is only the pos
session of those who are ready to uphold it.

Every once in while some divine, of
solemn warning that the United States is
spiritually bankrupt"
These declarations are easily made
and sometimes received as evidence of
neral degradation. AS a matter of fact
they represent nothing but the half-baked
conclusion of a man without much opti-
mism and, we suspect, little faith. -
The argument is advanced that this
spiritual bankruptcy is to be seen in the
failure of millions of people to belong to
any organized religion, which means
church.
The critics of humanity in general do
not imagine that it might be possible for
the churches to improve their service to
mankind and thus gain greater support.
They calmly assume that the churches are
above reproof and that any individual who
fails to support church organization is
bound for hell-fire.
The Citizen certainly believes in or
ganized religion and readily advises its
readers to join and support he church of
their c!.Jice. At the same time, we cannot
condemn, off-hand, every man and woman
who. fer reasons of their own, fail to follow
orr advice.
The contest between various faiths is
not without effect upon people, who often,
and unfortunately, conclude that church
leaders are more interested in church sue
cess than in the advancement of religious
ideals. They think, and sometims with
correctness, that the message of God
would reach more men if some of the
churches were less interested in material
things.

HOW ABOUT YOUR HEALTH?

lust as a great business takes an in
ventOry to ascertain its condition every
in ividual at least once a year should
seek to find out the true status of his or
her physical condition.
We hear much talk about regular ex-
aminatiOns to discover the existence of
dread diseases in order that proper treat
ment may safeguard the body and restore
it to health. Certainly, this is sound ad-
vice for all readers of The Citizen to fol-
low.
If you haven't had physical eheckup
lately. 90 to your family doctor and per-
suade him to look you over. See if your
heart and other vital organs have been i'm
paired. If there is anything wrong, fol-
low the advice that you get and see if you
can't repair the damage that has already
been done.
Parents of Key West might well start
the habit in their children. Take them
tc the doctor and have them carefully ex-
amined. Not only should they be tested
for bodily ills but eyes, noses, threats and
teeth should receive critical examination.
Tests for sound hearing often reveal I'M
suspected defects.

ETIQUETTE HELPS
Teach Them At Young Age
CHILDREN LATER
Bv SARAH WINSLOW

ASSOCIATED Press Feature Serviee)
A child who has been taught to
mind his manners has an
easier time, dealing with the con-
fusing social situations that con-
front him, one after another, as
he grows up.
Most parents teach their tod
oilers to say please" and Thank
you" and not to grab for the big
gest piece of cake. But a good
many parents let it go at that
Yet a child of six should have
enough social pOise and training
to answer the door politely, to
welcome a guest to the house. TO
introduce people without awk-
wardneSS-
He should know enough al
ways to knock at doors before
entering-even before going into
his mothers room
He should have the grace to
stand whenever older persons, in
Guiding his mother and father,
enter the room, and to offer his
chair TO an adult.
1t is pleasant, but not neces-
sary, that a little girl learn to
curtsy when she meets grown
ups, and little boy TO bow.
Parents who instil1 such rudi-
mentary social graces do their
children a great service. For man
nerS give social Sustenance to all
types of children, especially the
very shy and the very bold. They
give the shy child a safe course
of action to pursue when he is too
tinid to act on his own initiative
They give the bold child restraint
and protection from his bolster
business. which so often is only
another form of sflyness-
For the sake of social ease, a
wise mother tries to give her
child experience in variety of
social situations. If she can, she
sends him to a dancing class. or
to such children's parties as pro-
vide the equivalent in her COM
munity.
She lets ner son and daughter
act as host and hostess 10 their
friends. She encourages them to
put in a brief and mannerly ap-
pearance when grown-up guests
are in the house, letting them
pass refreshments perhaps, and
letting them gain experience In
saying a simple How do you do"
and I'm very glad to have met
you"
