Park Delegation
ereToPropose
Advertising
By Don Schmidt

The Mountain Goat Trail to
Glacier National Park was the
theme of an open forum meeting
in the Yegen Hotel banquet room
Monday evening.
Glacier Park and Browning
businessmen made up the group,
whose purpose was to study the
newly-formed Glacier Park Asso-
citation, with an eye to possible
inclusion of Browning business
men in the first group ever to be
formed for the sole purpose of
advertising and boosting this
part of Montana.
The group from Glacier Park,
with Mr.. Staley as spokesman,
outlined the structure and pur-
pose of the Glacier Park Associ-
alton, which was created as a
non-proft, cooperative unit to
engage in statewide advertising
by means of road signs and liter
allure the advantages of this
area and particularly Glacier Ma
tional Park as a tourist and rec
reation center.
Mr.. Staley stressed the char
acter of advertising, which is
aimed solely at attracting the va
cationists into Cut Bank, Brown
ing, Glacier Park area. This at
tractive, but long-neglected, end
of the state has never received
the recognition it merits as a va
cation area.
If it is to grow and prosper
as a vacation spot it must be
prepared to make itself felt upon
the travelling public from the
time they enter the state until
they arrive in this locality.
A very small per centage of
American citizens outside of
Montana have anything but the
haziest knowledge of Glacier Ma
tional Park and it's features, or
even the. state in which it is
found, while Yellowstone, Grand
Canyon, and even smaller parks
such as Bryce Canyon and Yo-
semitic are common household
knowledge the country over
thanks to the extended and care
full advertising they have.
The mere fact that a certain
geographical location on high.
ways has led the travellers into
our midst in the past will not, as
road conditions change, continue
to play such a strong part in help
ing our business.
The only real help for this ares
in respect to our second larges
trade source is to help ourselve!
through cooperative advertising
and boosting.
Support of the Glacier Parl
Association is one way of start
ing the ball rolling. Let's walk
up to the fact that no one here
or in Helena, Duluth or Cincin
natti owes you or any of US a liv
ing. Let's start to do for our
selves for a change.

With School Out,
Teachers Go Their
Separate Ways

With the 1946-47 term of
Browning public schools now at
a close and, as well, a h Apply
memory, teachers have gon e
their separate ways for relaxa-
ton and enjoyment. Some, be-
cause of Iii. + recedented economic
conditions brou, mt about by the
inflated cost OF living plan to be
gain1 ally employed during the
summer. Others will devote their
time to productive leisure in some
retreat far removed from the
tumult of civilization.
For instance, there is Keith
Dickman, last terms English and
journalism instructor. Some
where along the shores of Flat
head Lake, where almost a hello
copter would be necessary to
reach him, he is comfortably
quartered for the summer.
Miss Agnes Elpell, whose par
ents live at Glendive, is employ
ed at Blacks summer camp at
St. Mary's.
Miss Ruth Sennett for a time
will visit with her parents at
Stephans, N. D.
Coach Schweinfurt, who will
be employed the next term in the
Columbia Falls school, will leave
with his family the fore part of
next month.
R. W. Harris and Mrs. Harris,
both members of the teaching
staff, will remain in Browning
during the summer, aside from
occasional short trips. Mr.. Har-
ris' summer projects of the FLA
leave him little time to get very
far way-and for very long.
Mrs. Hughes, grades instruct
or, has joined her husband on
their dude ranch at Glacier Park
Miss June Lowe, commercial
instructor, whose h o m e is at
Hillsboro, N. D., was Joined here
by her parents on a motor trip

Mrs. Ethel Rutherford, kinder
garten instructor, after visiting
relatives in Seattle, will attend

Others, whose homes are ir

Atom Can Bring Man
Luxurious Life, or
None, Hutchins Says
By Howord W. BIokeslee
Asseeiafed Press Science Editor

NEW YORK, Dec. Robert M.
Hutchins, chancellor Of the Univer-
sity of Chicago, writes in the De-
cember American Magazine that
atomic bombs can annihilate all
life on earth-but that if war ceases,
atomic energy can make man live
as long as Methuselah.
Atomic energy he writes. makes
all our conceptions Of daily living
obsolete, eradicates virtually all our
limitations. cures all our maladies,
and opens the door to q way OF life
as uncomplicated as that Of South
Seas native basking in the sun and
plucking his food from the bread
fruit tree. Our paramount problem,
our chief hazard in the atomic age
will be what to do with our spare
time"
Heat, he says, will be so plentiful
that it will be used to melt snow as
it falls.
Luxuriant Foliage Predicted.
Lawns and gardens" he said
will be luxuriant, for atomic energy
promises fertilizers and soil balan-
GERS more powerful than any known
today. There will be flowers such
as we do not have at present, for
the atomic principle has the power
to alter forms of plant life, just aS
it alters the structure of minerals.
Factories will operate only a few
hours a week to produce more goods
than can be used. They will pro-
duce. among other things. new
metals, new types Of self-insulatine
building materials, new fabrics
foods, furnishings, communication
devices which will eliminate space
and time, and vehicles which will
run for q year on two ounces or less
Of atomic fuel.
Most human ailments will be
cured as rapidly as they are dag
noeed."
Sees S Years Left to Avoid War.
He predicts that, with the aid o1
present isotope tracer studies, the
mystery of cancer growth will be
understood within seven years and
that the end Of human suffering
is in sight.
But he says. if atomic destruction
is to be avoided, five years is about
all the time left to achieve agree
ments to end war.
Many Of us" he explained. "who
have thought the situation through
have concluded that our only saliva
ton lies in establishment Of inter-
national morality. a mutual accept
ance of the futility of further war
fare and q mutual avowl to keep
the peace.
Three years ago I would have
considered such a thought absurd
Today believe it is the only chance
for the survival OF humanity. Un-
fortunately this conviction is not to
be shared by the rulers Of Nations. y
Scientists Scattered.
There is no secret about the atom
bombs, he declares except those OF
manufacture. He says that every
single basic idea In atomic fissior
came from a European mind anc
that all these foreign scientists ART

Today these men are scattered, to
his personal knowledge, Dr.. Hutchins
says, in at least four European
nations.

"We would be foolish to assume that
she is not"
And he adds If we told the Rus

that knowledge would not shorten
Russia's work by more than six
