Utah has chosen for her floral
emblem the sego lily. During those
weary days when the followers OF
Brigham Young were searching fol-
the promised land, the bulbs Of this
plant helped to piece out the scanty
food rations, and so the sego fig-
ured in the history of the Mormon
Church established in Utah.
To many, these flowers are known
as the mariposa tulip. They are

Journalistic Coincidence
 Revealed In Big News of Today

WASHINGTON Over coffee and doughnuts in the Senate restaurant the other day, group of Washing ton neWsmen hashed over amazing journalistic incidence.
 The eyes of Washington and perhaps the whole world that day turned to New Delhi, India where Sir Stafford Cripps Mo- man in the British War Cab net, was holding tWo-hour session with scraWny little man in lon cloth Mahatma Gandhi. On that session depended much, perhaps the future of India and the tide of the war for months or maybe years to come.
 And in Ventura, Calif, James A. Mills, one of The Associated Press greatest foreign correspondents died
 These seemingly unrelated happenings had a very definite rlaonshiy for it Jim Mills who years ago discovered Gandh for the world outside of India.
 One veteran correspondent recalled that the little in the loin cloth considered more than fanatical leader of of Indias many factions when Mills met him. sensed the potential appeal to the Hindu masses in his philosophy and the power he was be- coming in his land. "Jms dispatches years ago intro duced Gandhi to the world, said this correspondent, and added and if I'm not mistaken Jim took the first news picture of the Mahatma to be printed"
 Certain it was that Jim with Gandhi all through those months when the little leader in the fight for Indias freedom conducting his salt rebellion in 1930 and he went with him to that all-India round table in London year later Certainly single respondent turned out more copy on the little man whose life is so bound up in lndlas destiny than Jim Mills. On the day Gandhi making his greatest decsion that not only affected India and the Brit ish empire, but the whole world, Jim Mills died.
 It was Morgan Beatty, the radio commentator, who said You know that clinches what undoubtedly will turn out to be Gandhi'S greatest prophecy" And to the queries of How so he explained:
 Mills the last person to speak with Gandh when the Indian leader enetered Poona jail in 1882 and 17 months later when Gandhi was released, Mills was waiting alone for Gandhis first words They were:

National Employment Week

Ii seems to especially important in this time of that employers and employment officials heed the words of President Roosevelt in the proclamation which draws attention to National Employment Week, which will be from May to 10 this year.
 Says the President "There is place for these men and other workers past 40 in the gigantic produc- ton program in which engaged There is place for them in jobs for which they already fitted and there is place for them in ob-training courses designed to build up the skils of the nations manpoWer
 While employment in many industries not essential to the prosecution of the will be diminished it is also true that as the program acceerates, many Americans not now regularly employed will be called upon to take active part in production vital to the war effort Yet it is not basis of patriotism alone that employers urged to open their doors to older workers but the basis of sound business sense as we'll for it should not be forgotten that these older workers have qualifications that younger persons lack Work experience stability and responsibility as- sets we cannot afford to waste in this crisis"
 The Presidents words forecast a condition that is going 10 be arrived at if the efficient prosecution off the is to continue.

Canada's Example

Officials in the United States could we'll spend little time in studying the plan for general price ceiling, which has been in operation in the Dominion of Canada since December In contrast to the present American system of partial selectve price ceilings, the Canadian plan seeks to deal with the whole situation including wages rents and farm products.
 This scheme is impossible at present in the United States because Congress has not given the Office of Price Administration the power to put ceilings wages farm crops However, this Canadian example is worth noting. It the closest of any plan to the ideas advocated by Bernard M. Baruch Chairman of the United States War Industries Board in the last World War.
 This Canadian plan also should be of importance because Canada is an older belgerent in this and has advanced her war actons ahead of ours.
 In advancing the plan to the Canadian people, Prime Minister w L. Mackenzie King said: "The action which am about to explain represents experiment hitherto untried this continent and perhaps having regard to it's breadth and variety hitherto untried by the will and consent of any free people anywhere
 Tt has to do with the price of goods and services and the price of the products of land and It has to do with wages It is of the greatest importance to every citizen in Canada, and of particular importance to every housewife, every worker and every farmer It will affect the daily lives of each one of us It will require the cooperation and support of all. It will help to intensity the effort of thS country in It will help to prevent repetition of distress and de- pression after the
 After two years of the present war, we have reach ed the stage had reached after two years of the last war Prices are agaln rising rapidly To speak generally, prices rising again because the public has more money to spend and there is less of the things people wish to buy For two years the government has been competing with the individual for almost every commodity Canada produces or imports.
 The government must have the goods to build and maintain our war machine to cothe feed and equip fighting and to aid Britain and other allies with arms and with food We sometimes forget that the sheets of aluminium cannot be used to make plane and to make pots anr pans The same gallon of he uSpd in a pe motor The pound of cheese cannot be eaten in Britain and Canada And most important of all, the same me cnannot make machine guns and washing ma chimes at the time
 We must face the fact that there are not enough men, there are not enough machines there not enough materials to meet the demands of consumers and the needs of Since the government. with the full support of the Canadian people, is determined to maintain and to intensity the fort, have choice but to reduce our consumption of goods To us too, has come the choice between guns and butter
 His opinions seem worthy of notice and study.
