the American way of doing things
as could be found. All phases of
American enterprise, from huge
industrials to individuals with
shovels, from the church to school
kids and hard-headed businessmen
will be participating to make the
educational aspects a success and
also to give Bob and Zilla Hard
grave, and their children, the sort
of break GI's used to dream about
in foxholes.
When Bob was mustered out of
the army after having suffered a
severe leg wound at Metz he took
advantage of the CT Loan to buy
the only farm in the erde Valley
he could find that was within his
financial means. Low as the price
was, however, the outfit could
hardly have been called bargain.
Depleted and neglected, the land
has been farmed out years ago and
left as a bad deal for any farmer.
Bob knew it wasn't going to be an
easy job to force a living out of it;
he saw all the liabilities he was ac-
quiring, but it would be home to
he and his family.

would be confounded indeed if they
could get the inside dope on how
money-mad American manufacture

men, cold blooded American COM
munities and selfish American in
dividuals are cooperating to give a
young American Veteran, his wife,

It would be hard for even the
most proficient Soviet editor to dis
tort the picture of real Democracy
at work that has grown out of the
idea of remaking in day an irri-
CATER farm in the Verde Valley.
The fundamental purpose of the
dramatic soil conservation demon
stration which will be staged at
Bridgeport on Apr. 27 is to give op-
orators of irrigated farms all over
the Southwest the opportunity to
see at first hand, free of charge,
soil conservation practices which
will help them to do better jobs OF
making their own farms pay.

Sunshine"
BY Mrs. Nellie Maye Taylor

Hello there, here and every
where. What's cooking good look
ing, hmm I wonder. The pot seems
to be boiling over, it seems that
Russia has turned the flame up
just a little bit" And Us can't
seem to take it, despite the steam
we have been blowing off. The
mother with the worse children
can always see how bad the other
mothers children are, and the on
eryest dog always hollers the loud
est. I hope you dig me, if you don't
I can dig you. You don't believe
me, we'll just try me. Just anybody,
they don't come too high for me,
nor too low. After all this is called
the land of the free and home of
the brave. I don't get it, do you.
A Minister of the Gospel was barr
ed from visiting Mrs. Ingram and
her two sons in Ga. They are held
in solitary confinement awaiting
the ruling of the Judge for a new
trial. They have even been denied
the right to have visitors who
might be able to help in their de-
fense. A mother because her COM
plexion is dark, whose ancestors
were brought over in ball and
chains and held in slavery for hum
dreds of years, who tried to save
her own life and the lives of her
twelve children is facing the elec-
trio chair with her two teen age
boys. Mrs. Ingram should have a
medal with her two sons for hero
ism, for having that much spunk in
Ga. After having known nothing
but persecution down there, and
continue to live there. Atlanta
hired it's first eight Negro police
men, with orders not to arrest a
white man. Just keep an eye on
him and call for white officers to
come and arrest him, what ever
the crime may be. A white man
can run anuck, in Negro town,
hold Negro officers at bay, kill up
as many Negroes as he wants too;
yet if he is a white man, don't ar
rest him. And they say Hitler is
dead, if it isn't Hitler well who is
it. A gentleman was telling about
the parade, he said there was one
group with all colors in it march
ing side by side, I ask; did they
seem to be getting along, he said
yes, I ask did any black seem to be
rubbing off on any one, he said no.

Well Folks:
April 10th, 1948.

Well Folks:
Reddy's Boosters won their first
league game. Started off good; we
had a IL lead in the second inning,
held them pretty good until about
the eighth, then they got some
sand in their craW or something
there certainly was enough dust
and dirt blowing around out there.
They nearly caught us, $40. After
that they "surta" kept us worried,
but we finished 14-11 with our last
half of the ninth inning to go.
Litchfield will probably give us a
much better return game on their
diamond May Is. Next Sunday we
play the Phoenix Wildcats at Mesa
High School.
Boys have you thought of enter
ing the Soapbox Derby this year?
All boys from IL to Is years old are
eligible. We at Reddy's Corner
sponsored Junior Franklin last
year but he is too old to qualify
this year. He made a good showing
last year and we would like TO
have a winner again this year. OF
course we can't sponsor all of you
so we thought that possibly we
could sponsor one of you and help
the rest of you toward getting
sponsors. THE MAIN THING is
TO GET YOUR CAR BUILT. En-
try blanks, rule books and book of
instructions can be secured at Ru-
dOlph Chevrolet, or Phoenix Mo
tors. Get Nom or Dad to go with
you and get started. We have the
set of special wheels and axels that
Junior used last year. Although
they can't be used in the race this
year we can use them i'm trying
out your racers. Those of you who
are interested come in some even
ing and talk it over with us. We
can't give you anything but ad-
vice, but that we will willingly do
to the best of our ability. 1t is good
fun and the prizes are well worth
trying for. Why not give it a try.
Let's get started early this year so
that all of you can get sponsors.
Nom and Dad, we can't sponsor
you i'm any SOapbOx Derby but we
can and do carry a complete line
of beverages which can go along
ways toward sponsoring your en-
tertainment program. Give us a
try.

I said di dthey seem to hate one
another, he said no. I said, isn't it
strange that children can get
along, yet the old hard heads who
are holding high offices in our ma
ton, are continuing to preach ra-
cial hate and segregation.
Maybe it will take this younger
generation to wake us up or anoth-
er war. Now just don't be so glad
you are not down South, because
right here in our lovely Arizona, a
Minister and his wife were return
ing from California last week. They
stopped at place beside the road,
his car was dry, he asked for water
and a sign was pointed to which
read: we do not want colored
trade. That was about 80 miles
from here, and he had to drive
about IS miles before he got any
water. Now you see what mean.
If we could just get our so-called
superior white leaders to know
that it isn't white women and men
we want to marry, it is equal edu-
cation, equal jobs and opportuni-
ties. Wherever, I am if want wa
ter or hungry or sleepy let me
drink, feed me and let me sleep.
Then I can sing with a clear con-
science and a happy heart, "My
Country IT'S of Thee; Sweet Land
of Liberty" and mean it.

TRAVELLING" SUBJECT
Of ROTARY SPEAKER

Travelling" was the subject of
the guest speaker at Rotary Tues
day noon. Paul Void, chairman of
the program committee, introduced
the speaker, John w. Corwin, who
recently returned from an extensive
trip to eastern cities. At the con-
clusion of the speakers remarks,
Mr.. Void, in a most able name
presented before the club Mr.. Cor
wins name as a candidate for gov
ernor of Rotary District No. 112,
which was enthusiastically received
by the club. Mr.. Corwin was deeply
touched by the honor of being on
sidered, and although not signify
ing that the club should sponsor the
move he did not positively decline.
The following is a text of Mr..
Corwin's address before the club:
Robert Young, president of the
Chesapeake & Ohio railroad, has
been strongly advocating more con
venience for the travelling public.
He believes it should not be nee
essary for a person to stand in line
in purchasing a railroad ticket and
then to again stand in line for an
inspection of the ticket by the pull
man and train conductor, and in
addition to all of this fight your
way through the iron gate to the
train, exhibit your railroad ticket
while you are wrestling with a
couple of suitcases. He believes
that the process may be simplified
as follows: First, call the pullman
office for reservations and then
leisurely get on the train, and when
the conductor comes around, pre-
sent a credit card and state your
destination. On the first of the
following month, the railroad com
pany would bill the passenger for
the amount of the transportation,
V e the payment of this amount
might be spread over a period of
months if the passenger so desires.
The result of this effort on the
part of Mr.. Young remains to be
seen but the travelling public is
watching the development with keen
about a year ago, Mr.. Young
declared that it should not be nee
essary for passengers to change
pullman ears at Chicago and save
4 six Or eight hour delay. He
out that a load of hogs
Gould be shipped to Chicago to an
Eastern market without unloading
md reloading at Chicago, and he
Urged that human beings should be
given at least as much considera-
ion as a load of hogs. In this un-
l~ertaking Mr.. Young has been sue
.essful to the extent that it is now
for passengers from the
vest coast to the east coast
pass through Chicago without

CLUB To ESTABLISH
INFORMATION BUREAU

Under the auspices of the Laurel
commercial club, plans r under
way to establish a tourist informa-
ton bureau at the Commercial club
building during the summer months.
The establishment of a central bu-
reau has been requested by operat-
ors of several filling stations, mo-
tells, restaurants, and other business
es.
The purpoe of the Bureau will be
to give out road information and
to aid tourists in finding accommo-
dations in Laurel. 1t has been sug-
gested by members of the Com
mercial club that each home wish
ing to rent rooms to tourists reg
lister with the bureau and pay a
membership fee of approximately
$40 to the Commercial club to help
defray the expense of conducting
such a bureau, the balance of nee
essary expenses to be paid by the
Commercial club. 1t will be neces-
sary to pay a salary to the per-
son conducting the bureau, and 20
meet the cost of literature advertis-
ing Laurel. Laurel has been listed
by several travel bureaus as zone
of the most-used routes through the
north central states"
All persons interested in listing
their rooms with a Bureau, under
these arrangements, please call COM
mittee chairman Harlan r. Russell at
799. Your prompt action will be
appreciated, as the CLUB wishes to
have the bureau organized in time
for the Laureal Rodeo, May 20 and

CHARLES STEVENS GUEST
SPEAKER Of K|WAM|ANS

The regular weekly meeting OF
the Laurel Kiwanis club was held
at the Parish hall Wednesday eve
ming with Charles Stevens, owner of
the Red Lodge cafe and a member
of the A.A.A. as speaker. He was
introduced by Lee Lampson and his
subject was "The A.A.A., their de-
sire to establish auto driving courses
in accredited high schools; and ask
for assistance from working service
clubs"
Mr.. Stevens said the A.A.A. was
organized in 1902 when less than
1900 cars were on the highways.
Today more than one million cars
are on the approved highways.
The aims of A.A.A. are safety,
good roads, to help protect and give
service to the general public night
and day. The Montana A.A.A. is
composed of $50 local, state and
county branches.
The speaker stated that recently
the Montana district was informed
that two per cent of Montana auto
owners must belong to the A.A.A.
$4,000 or they would be dropped
from the national. The listing with
the national is important mainly
from the tourist standpoint. Without
this listing Montana and advertising
Montana would be an out of the
way place for people from foreign
states.
Mr.. Stevens main interest lies in
the establishing of an accredited
driving school. The A.A.A. fur
nishes the car and all necessary
text books. The expenses to the
school a instructor, fuel and oil,
insurance. The car has dual controls
and is under full control of the in
structor at all times. The car is in
spected every month by the local
Chevrolet dealer. The benefit is
derived by both young and OLD.
TIC the young: learning how to drive.
To the old, knowing that the teach
ing is thorough and safe.
Requirements of the school: Must
an instructor who can pass a

school or take 40 hours course given
by same.

delivered in a short time. A II
