NEWS FROM ARIZONA
We have enjoyed an unus-
ually good summer here in
south central Arizona. 1t has
been quite a treat to have the
need of sleeping under a blan-
ket for almost two weeks dur
ing the month of August. The
last two nights have been quite
warm, and now after having
had some rain in the neighbor-
hood the air is refreshed and
some cooler. We look forward
to good winter season, with
the usual mild weather, for the
most part.
Ours was a good time last
evening as we had a good visit
with Mr.. and Mrs. Chester
Bagg and family. They were
able to spend just a short time
here so we took advantage of
their presence and, together
with few old friends, gather
ed at Encanto Park so that
others, too, might be able to
see Chester and Mary. They
are on their way, this morning,
to their home in ST. Jacob, Hi
nois.
Mr.. DePew arrived home
last week and was present with
us on Wednesday evening and
on the Lords Day. He said he
was glad to get back here to
enjoy the summer weather
here.
On Thursday morning of
last week, twenty-five boys of
the Junior and intermediate
classes went by bus to the ALI
son Steel Mfg. Co. plant to be
conducted on a tour of this
great factory. This firm tools,
builds and fabricates all types
of structural steel products,
and is known to have one of
the largest machine shops in
the west. In process of manu-
facture and preparation for
shipment, among other things,
were great sections of steel
bridgework to be used in the
Queen Creek bridge, being
built near Superior, Arizona.
enormous water gates to be
used in the construction of a
dam in Mexico, and many truck
beds for all styles of trucking.
After this fine educational tour
the boys went to Encanto Park,
IN Phoenix, for their picnic.
Then on last evening, the
class of Junior girls, taught by
Mrs. Morrison, (about fifteen)
went also in the white chapel
bus for a picnic outing at En-
canto Park. Since school time is
close at hand, we want to have
our summer picnics and out
lngs before fall, as the DAYS
are beginning to be noticeably
shorter. On Monday evening
the Christian G. BIS went on a
treasure hunt. The group of
boys led by Jimmy Parry, was
the winning side, while those

30 CENTURIES AGO AND AHEAD

ArcheoIogists of the American Museum of Natural History recently unwrapped Peruvian mummy, said to contain the remains of native of that country who died some 5000 years ago.
 Newspaper reports relate that the experts carefully unwound yards of burlap and brilliantly coored cloth including bright ceremonial robes and short tasseed poncho in state of nearly perfect preservation.
 The earlier civilizations of Peru and some other Gen. ral and South American areas attracting and more attention from American archeologsts. Undoubt- edly some of these ancient peoples more highly developed than the inhabitants of the North American continent.
 As speculate upon the life, manners and peoples of thirty centuries ago. the thought might enter our minds that thirty centuries from now other people will speclae about Certainly if the atomic age proves too powerful for the mentality of modern people, there may from now. At that day, perhaps other human beings struggling for self-development, may be puzzled by some of the relics that they discover buried in the ground.

Inquiry Comm Denies PribilOf Islanders Abused

ANCHORAGE, (R) - Members of an inquiry commission said yesterday they will refute the inn plication that Pribilof Island na- tives are living under conditions bordering on peonage.
 The commission returned here Monday from a rowing investiga- ton of native living conditions in the seal-bearing islands and the Eskimo areas of the mainland.
 They withheld details of what their report would be.
 The study was made after com plaints by the Alaska Native Bro- therhood and after the Association of American Indian Affairs raised the question, in Washington and New York, of the natives status. Oliver La Farge, president of the Indian group, said natives of the Pribilofs may be in virtual peon- age" He said "They are wards of the Fish mad Wild Life Service, exclusively engaged in fur sealing operations for the United States.
 "We can't help but feel" he added, that the government has been just a little more interested in seals than sealers."
 The commission that returned here Monday is led by the Rev. Mark Dauber of New York City, executive secretary of the Home Missions Council of North Amer ica and a director of the Associa- tion of Indian Affairs. The group made a three-week inspection tour.
 The party visited Nome, Kotze- bue, Bethel, Hooper Bay, Nunivak Island and St. Paul Island. At

NELS SWANBERG. SIR. HAS RARE COIN

Nels Swanberg, Srg is displaying to his friends rare coin which has been in his possession for many years, just how many he does not know. In fact he had for gotten all about the coin until he read in last weeks Seattle P.-I. that there were only for 1 dollar gold pieces coined in the mint at Charlotte, North Carolina in 1854 and the whereabouts of all of the coins was unknown.
 MT. Swanberg, who is a mining man who has uncovered many a pay streak has really found a rare nugget now which is smaller than a dime, but may be worth lot to collectors.

Nome the members interviewed King Island Eskimos who were in a summer encampment there.
 The members explained that they carried their inquiry to vari- ous communities to compare liv- ing conditions of Pribilof natives with conditions in other places.
 Others of the visiting commis- sion are: L. T. Oldroyd of the Uni versity of Alaska; Albert M. Day, head of the Fish and Wild Life Service; John Nichols, commis- Sioner of Indian Affairs.

Italian Premier .Lauds Columbus

ROME (P)-Christopher Colum- bus must be an example of cour- age and endurance to our genera ton, Premier Alcide de GaSperi of Italy said in a message to the United States for Columbus Day.
 "Italy celebrates the man who first united ideally our two coun- tries," De Gasperi said. His act has been an act of courage and sacrifice, of industrious and spon- taneous activity, and of union and collaboration among nations, an act of peace and prosperity.
 His deeds must be an example, because we have to face the same odds now"

Little Theater Activities

The lOuTlH HicIiiUcl Snlp meet Ing of the Nome Little Theater Group met Friday night a week ago, at 2 o'clock at the Service Club on Marks Air Base. Miss Vir- ginia Bushco. president, turned the meeting over to Capt. Ambos, chairman of the nominating com mittee. Capt. Ambos began nomin- ations for chairmanships of the twelve committees chosen. The chairmanships are as follows:
 Play selecting committee: It. Bellury; public relations. Sgt Mock; makeup: It. Evans; cos tuning: Mrs. Mary Lee Yates; stage management: Wes Welch; business administration: Ed Gala gher; membership: Ted Duffield; social: Mrs. Gallagher; house: George Beacon; property: It. Gaudin; tickets and programing: Sgt. Forrest and the music com mittee: Chaplain Robert Fricke.
 The preponderance of military committee chairmen is due to the fact that very few people from Nome have attended the meetings, evidencing little interest in the Nome Little Theater Group among the civilians in the area. In order to positively insure that the group becomes success 1t is imperative that more people from Nome at tend the meetings and become members of the group.
 It was decided that board of governors meeting would be held the following day in order to es- tablish a constitution and bylaws for the Group. Try-outs for the various roles in the chosen play "A Christmas CaroP' were begun Friday night after the close of the reg u lar meeting. Everyone is strongly urged to come and try out for one of the many roles in the play.
 It was decided that the Charter Membership list of the Nome Lit tie Theater Group would be closed as of the meeting of October 8. Future memberships would be clasSed as regular memberships. But charter or regular member, your attendance at the regular meetings of the group are needed. Still more persons will be needed to fill the many vacancies existing in the committees and cast of players. If you are adept at hand ling tools making scenery, keeping financial books, the art of make up, or managing stage equipment we need you. If you can sing we also need you. There will be a choir in the play and we still do not have nearly sufficient people for that.
 Everyone is heartily welcome to join the Group and your applica- tion for membership will be wait ing for you to fill out at the next regular meeting of the members which will be Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock on Oct. Is, at the Serv- ice Club at the Base. Give a hand to this group and you will be re- paid many times.

LESSONS OF PATERNALISM
(By George Peck)

When more of the peoples Sustenance is eXacted through the form of taxation than is necessary to meet the just obligations of government and the expenses o it's economical administration, such exaction becomes ruthless eXtortiOn and violation of the fundamental principles of free government.
 Who said that? Mo- it wasn't Senator Taft nor it any conservative Republican. Grover Cleveland, Demo- cratic President said it in December, 1886 during the course of his Second Annual Message.
 Were Cleveland alive today, undoubtedly he would demand that the Federal Government change it's att tude toward business and industry and abandon it's pro- gram of robbng the taxpayers to play Santa Claus to the American citizenry.
 The political planners would do we'll to read what Jonathan Swift wrote in his Voyage to Brobdingag" early in the 18th Century: Whoever could make two of corn two blades of grass grow upon spot of ground where only grew befOre would deserve bet ter of mankind and do more essential service to his country than the whole Of politicians put together
 Were Swift able to speak from beyond the grave his advice to America would be to stop apng the sociastc experiment of England toaonce again encourage ind- vidual thrift and native and to to it that achieve men, as formerly, gets reward commensurate with service rendered.
 Our Federal Government up to 1880, for the most part kept it's out of the affairs ghtfuy belonging to the individual States and to business and industry encouraged competitive enterprise and made fairly successful attempt at keeping the national debt down and the budget balanced.
 l., slightly billion dollars, at the end of that war the debt had risen to only 252 billion dollars and by 1930 this had been reduced to 16 million dollars
 Now, stagger under the twin handicap of debt in of 250 billion dollars and eXorbant The Administration, taking heed of the morrow, advo- caeS sociaStic schemes that will further increase the national debt and add to the already bur- den No real American begrudges single dollar eco- nomically spent to keep Armed Forces strong and well equipped helping nations abroad slave off Com muniSm.
 But the Federal Government must tighten it's belt Extravagant and unnecessary expenditures be cut most certainly no must be added. The Hoover Commission has pointed the way for reduction in the army of servants who eating at the public trough at the taxpayers expense. Congress should swiftly per- haps with minor revisons, adopt this plan. The chief function of many of the Government bureaus to be to hamper business to rustrate competitive enterprise and impede "The American Way" Their abolition would have the two-fold beneficial result of easink the tax burden and taking bureaucracy off the banks of business and industry.
 Then, if Congress will say 'NO' emphatcay to the various sociastc schemes that being proposed this nation will again attain senbance of an or derly economy. The Congress would do well to heed what Grover Cleveland to quote him again, said in his
