LO-AMERICAN AIR MANEUVERS

(HugO 5. SlmS)
 The biggest air maneuvers in Great Britain since the war took place in June For the first time in peace for egn air units engaged in "battles designed to test offensive and defensive tactics with the greatly inn proved speeds of modern jet planes.
 The United States represented by super-fort- resses joining with British bombers in playing the role of the attacking forces For the defense American jet fighters operated alongside R. A. F. planes In addition a Netherand squadron of Gritish-made jet planes oper ated with the defending forces and operation room per sonnel from France Belgium and the Netherlands took part in the exercises.
 The presence of American planes in such an opera ton would have produced loud hows of dismay in this country not long ago. That participation in joint exercises with the British and the nations of Western Europe has not aroused loud protests indicates that the people of the United States at last conversant with the world situation.

LITTLE HONOR OR INTEGRITY"

recent meeting sponsored by the Civil Rights Con- gress of New York featured by denuncaton of the trial of eleven communists in New York with orators to fight for the freedom of the communists in order to prevent subsequent suppression of their liberties.
 Eugene Dennis, secretary-ge of the commun;st party asserted that it had fear for itself because it's members know how to preserve it's honor and integrity replenish it's ranks and strengthen its fighting capac ity. The honor and integrity phrase arouses n terest because as understand it, the of the communist campaign, in every country is to secure po stions of leadership under what amounts to false pre- lenses.
 The of the democratic privileges in order to quire power supposedly for the purpose of safeguard
 ing the rights of all citizens followed by overt acts de- signed to suppress the liberties of non-communists does not impress program involving either honor integrity.
 Advertise, brother, advertise; wiser merchants than you have done it to their advantage. There is to get mad with those who haven't got much you have and therefore unable to see things you see them. Selfishness never built town into city Let all the people of Nome work together, unsel fishly and will be the right road to progress The world economic situation might not need many American dollars, gift, if the same American dol lars used in the purchase of the worlds goods When you buy something from Nome merchant just remember that he cannot make profit on the deal un less you pay him for the purchase.
