GRANGE COMMITTEES
SPONSORS CONTESTS

The Home Economics Committee
OF the KoOtenai Valley Grange, Of
Libby, is sponsoring two community
wide contests this summer. One
contest IS for juveniles and one for
adults.
The contest for juveniles is to be
/ the best garden collection raised by
! the contestant and exhibited at the
fair this fall. Anyone under fif-
teen years of age, living either In
town or in the country NAV enter
collection. Flowers may make up
part of the exhibit, but due to the
food shortage and because everv-
one IS asked by our government
to raise vegetables, the exhibit
should consist primarily of vege-
tables. Get busy now kids-here's
Tor some fun, some work, lots of
good flowers and vegetables, and
maybe-a dandy prize.
The contest for adults will be one
OF farmhouse yard beautifiation.
This, of course, will be restricted
to rural families. The contest will
be judged upon the greatest i'm
proVement made during the season
snapshots. Our community is jud-
ged by its appearance, so it would
be fine thing if everyone would
get out the camera now, take the
before" picture. then see what can
be done and get busy. Don't for
get that DR.. Brownell stated, Lib
BY IS not a smart or snappy town"
Our rural sections can contribute
to that general impression made
upon strangers, or can hustle them
selves and, along with Libby itself,
change the picture.
Substantial prizes are planned in
each contest. Exact amounts and
contest closing date and date of
will be announced later.
Any further information can be
had from Mrs. Art Sheldon, Home
Economics committee chairman or
from any Grange member.-Grange

deeply grieved last week to learn
that Supt. J. R. Culver will not re-
turn next year, but has accepted
position at Thompson Falls. Mr..
Culver came to Eureka two years
ago from Stanford, where he had
held similar position for eight
years. He holds his masters degree

generous response to community as
well as school interests and his very
efficient work in the school, In
addition to holding important places
on M. E. A. committees, he has
found time to organize and lead
Scout Troop No. So. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Culver have taken an active

1t is understood that he plans to
move to Thompson Falls.
Mr.. and Mrs Culver have been
active in our little community af-

Mr.. Culver as well as Mr. Korn as
sisted in recognizing the Rod and
Gun Club and also did his best
to help arouse a little spirit in the
Boosters Club, and anywhere else
that he could help to better the
community. We sincerely hope the
efforts of both the CulVers and
Korns have not been in vain, and
the business men of Eureka will
continue where they leave off. They
have proven to us what they set
out to do, that Eureka could be
what we would all like to have
it, if we would all cooperate and
try to pull together.
We wish both families much sue
cess in their new homes.

BRIDGES ASKS 3-MAN
RULE FOR MILITARY

WASHINGTON, Apr. 23-With
a warning against any "militar-
istic" merger Of the Army and
Navy, Senator Bridges (Rep., N.
j. formally introduced bill to-
day to unity the armed services
through a council of common de-
fense." 1t would retain the Navy's
individual representation in the
cabinet.
His measure would set up an air
force on an equal footing with the
Army and Navy and give all three
services a secretary of cabinet
rank.
The common defense council,
through which unification would
be sought, would consist of these
three secretaries, the secretary of
state and the President.
Bridges told the senate in con-
nection with his bill that eve must
not be hustled or driven toward a
decision in which we can not sim
cerely believe"
He criticized the bill drafted by
a subcommittee headed by Chair
man Thomas (Dem., Utah) of the
military committee which would
The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1946-04-23

combine the services in single
department with one secretary IN
the cabinet.
Bridges, member of the mill
tary committee, said he would in
sist that witnesses be heard on his
proposal before the full committee
acts one way or the other on the
Thomas plan.
No decision is likely, however,
until after the senate disposes of
the draft extension question.
Meanwhile members of t h e
house military committee reported
that the war department has re-
quested that action on compulsory
universal training be put off until
next year lest the matter become
a political issue in the congress
sional elections.

velt to be considerate and kindly to

paid to the immortal Franklin Del

sary of his death than to report
that Mrs. Roosevelt is today this
