BEN FRANKLIN

February is celebrated as a month
of famous birthdays, but January II
IS an anniversary of a figure that is
perhaps as noted as Washington and
Lincoln. This man was BENJAMIN
Franklin and like Lincoln was a
self-made character. He achieved
the heights in the scientific and in
ventive world, was a noted humor-
list and through his tactfulness, serv-
ed his country as a diplomat in Eng
land and France. His name is link
ed in each American school child's
mind with the famed Constitution
of the United States and the issuing
of the Declaration of Independence.
His hand in those was to calm and
smooth the differences involved
over the formation of both. Franklin
as legislator had his own ideas for
a government. He sponsored plan,
in the beginning, for a seven-year
presidential term with no reelection
and also, no salary for the office of
president. He was for one legislative
chamber. These facts of Franklin's

We were talking with a party yes
terday who has been over the coun-
try quite considerable. He stated
that more than people realize there
are in this country individuals ready
to commit sabotage in defense in
dustries. According to this party
these individuals have already Sc
1ected the places to strike that will
do the most to cripple this country
In Its defense program. Our guess is
that when affairs reach that point
all those unfriendly to, or cool to-
ward this government, are going to
have to speak pretty low and tread
pretty softly. Americans, while slow
to anger are not going to pull their
punches on any enemy within the
gates who attempts to hamstring
them in the dark.

God Bless America
Arthur B. Langlie, Governor

Before we join in saying, God
Bless America" let us first remem-
Der that through all the glowing
years of our national history, God
has been blessing America.
He gave our forefathers the Wis
ion to iaew out free America from
the o1d-world empires of the eigh-
teenth century.
He inspired our first statesmen
to mold the Constitution and Bill of
Rights, which have so long stood
as our guarantor of democracy.
He has endowed OUR people with
the high qualities which have made
this nation great-the courage of
our pioneers, the genius of our in
Ventors, the industry Of OUR workers,
the wisdom of our leaders, the good
conscience of our citizenry.
Through Gods bountiful blessing
We now have a strong and united
nation-a nation which offers the
fullest measure of individual liber-
ty, justice, security and opportunity
now available anywhere in the
world.
To retain and strengthen our Am
erican institutions in this troubled
and war-torn world, and to keep
brightly burning the beacon of Am
erican democracy when the ideal of

We have heard different things
defined as the white mans burden.
Some define it as one thing, and
some as another, but to us the white
mans heaviest burden is war. Not
since this nation sprang into being
has it been free from the burden of
wars past and present. The cost
of the earliest wars has not yet been
paid. The cost of the Civil War has
not yet been paid, and the cost of
the World war will not be paid for a
hundred years to come. Today we
are facing a battle, that in dollars
and cents, and perhaps in men, will
be greater than all of the other wars.
War from the standpoint of finan-
cial cost, destruction of wealth, and
man power, and Generalization of
human morals, is mankinds great
est burden. -.

who failed to obey are subject to a
thousand dollar fine. Surely there
would be no reason for overlook
ing this law, as widespread notice
as was given concerning it. If man
should very deliberately keep from

that he be hunted and punished, for
advantage of securing the protection
of Uncle Sam is premium enough
for the small amount of inconven-
fence of registering at the nearby
poStoffice. The non-citizen who
cares so little for this country
should not have a claim upon it.
The total number of registrations is
slightly over 100000 and far sur
passes all estimates. America is
truly haven for all nationalities.

Now that Congressman Knute Hill
has secured such powerful posi-
ton in his committee assignment, it
seems reasonable to expect him to
exert himself concerning his home
district. 1T should, for instance,
greatly simplify the work of secur-
ing aid on the Kennewick High Line
project. He is familiar, too, with
the advantages this district can Of
fer in the way of a location, for in
stance, of an aeronautical engine
testing field, aviation training field,
ammunition and airplane factories.
Our climatic advantages, location,
altitude, transportation facilities
all favorable in great degree, could

Tense work. Congressman Hill can
do his country a distinct service by
calling these to the attention of the
proper people.

'"TEIANK YOUS"

THANK YOUS"
1t helps to instil a sense of ap-
probation in the young by having
them write "thank you" notes to
aunts and uncles and cousins. Few
children like this and will think of
many excuses to avoid doing it, in
fact don't We all? But we oldsters in
Kennewick appreciate receiving
those notes and cherish them as q
mark of progress of this youthful
member and marvel at such handi-
work at such an early age. We tuck
the note away and welcome the OPP
portunity of showing it off to our
friends as an example of how smart
the children are, in our family. But
If we want to impress upon the
childish mind the fact that receiv-
ing of gifts calls for notes of appre-
citation afterwards, we must first set
the main example,!

The Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company, because of the depression,
found 1t necessary to foreclose on
10000 farms on which it had loans.
The farms were placed under the
direction of Glenn e. Rogers, a
trained agriculturist and former
county agent. The farms were label
ed opportunity Farms" and after
having been given a set of modern
improvements were leased to respon-
sible parties year at time on a
share rental basis. The tenants
were required to follow a scientific
crop rotation schedule under super
vision of special company represent
atives. To date 1000 of the farms
have been sold, many to the original
owners. OF the 1000 farms sold the
company has been called upon to
reacquire only 100 of the farms. r

MANY MORE BIKES

With many automobile factories
turning to the manufacture of war
materials, there comes into CONVEX
sational circles the subject of trans
portation and from there we hit
upon the topic of the increasing re-
vival of the bicycle. AS many Ken
newick residents realize, more BIZ
cycles are manufactured today than
in the days of the tandems. But
back in the gay '90s they didn't have
the present day traffic problem to
cause such a disturbance and COM
motion. In fact, there is such in
convenience in some cities over the
bike that they enact laws to govern
the sisuation. Ohio has two large
cities trying to iron out traffic
trouble by making ordinances that
permit children under IA to ride on
the sidewalk. The older cyclists are
ordered to remain in the street with
in five feet of the curb, except when
vehicles. They must move
IN single file in the direction Of traf-
fic. Cyclists must observe traffic
laws that also govern the auto
driver
There are schools that instruct the
bike rider in road conduct that will
later improve their auto driving
conduct. This sort of school is eff
SectiVe in reducing accidents. There |
S a court which tries bicycle cases
md sentences offenders. Parents |
Ire often called in to impress them
With their responsibility in the
,yclist traffic problem. |

One of the speakers at the
launching Of the barge here last
week made a remark which has
caused considerable conjecture since.
Inasmuch as the speaker, because
of his official capacity, IS in a po-
sition to become acquainted with
federal plans, his statement bore
even more weight. The remark was
to the effect the developments of
almost unbelievable extent would
take place in this area within the
next eighteen months. Whether it
has to do with river development or
other defense plans was not indi-
Gated. Either way, we hope his
prophecy comes true.

tages available here for the location

democracy itself is being so gravely

which will truly test our mettle. But
if we will remember that divine
guidance has led us to build our
great nation of today and can lead
us, no matter how great the obstacle,
to preserve it for tomorrow, we
can enter into the task before us
with hope-even with assurance.
It is in this spirit that I say, God

Every gallon of gas you save will
