May Halye Mine
 Subsidy Program

WASHINGTON lP)-Chairman Sabath D.-IllD of the House Rules committee moved Wednesday to cut a proposed S33O,OO0,OOO mine subsidy program in half.
 He introduced a bill to author izc a total of Sl65,OOO,OOO over a four-year period for incentive payments to stimulate exploration for and conservation of strategic minerals.
 This action came a few hours after the Rules Committee had delayed action on a bill backed by mining states Congressman to pro- vide for the larger program.
 At that time, Sabath told Rep. Engle D.-Calif0 that the Rules committee wanted to help them but he said 'you've got to be req sOnable.'
 He said he thought their mea- sure was too costly. It would au- thorize $6O,OOO,OOO for incentive payments the first year and S90,- OOO,OOO annually for the next three years.

Truman Insists On Electrifying All Of United States

Grand COulee Dam, Wash, (P) President Truman declared yes terday his determination to help low cost public power on all the country'S great rivers and fight against its use "for private profit"
 "We have embarked, all over the country, on the task of fully developing our resources for all the people," he said.
 And we shall have to continue to overcome the opposition of those who do not understand the greatness of our goal, or who fear the impairment of their selfish in terests.
 We will meet opposition from the private groups. Many of them there are honorable exceptions, of course-do not want the energy of our rivers put to use as power and sold to the people at cost"
 The President spoke out sharp ly against the opposition of pri- vate power companies to rural identification and other local public agencies constr u in g transmission lines for the delivery and sale of power purchased at dam sites at cost He said their EE;c 7,
 The President laid down his public power development pro- gram in a prepared address for dedication ceremonies at the site of Grand Coulee dam, where the last turbine has been cut in.
 He predicted ultimate Congress sional approval of the proposed Columbia Valley Administration to take over the operation of Grand Coulee and other power and reclamation projects in the valley.
 "I believe the Columbia Valley Administration is a necessary next step in the sensible, demo- cratic development of the resourc- cs of the Northwest" MT Truman said. "I believe the people of this area think so, too"
 "And when they make their voices heard, I am sure the Co., lumbia Valley Administration will be established"
 The President said the private power companies "would deny the people the benefits of low cost power tn y themselves h e brought about through public in veStment."
 The President challenged the claims of those who attacked Grand Coulee as a colossal waste of public funds" calling it "co-

It was in the month of May in the year 1543 that Copernicus made his great discovery that the earth was rotating on its axis. Up to this time, the ancient Greeks and Egyptians thought that the world was the center of the uni verse.
 PtOlemy, an Egyptian astrono- mer, living during the second cen tury A. D., wrote O book deScrib- ing how the earth stayed fixed in a permanent place. Around 1t re- volved the great hollow spheres called the heavens. His COnclu- sionS had been made from obser- vation of the Great Dipper nov ing around the North Star. Coper- nicus said it was the earth'S turn ing on its axis which gave this eff feet.
 Nikolaus Coperincus, the Polish astronomer, was a young man at the time that Columbus discover ed America. He said that the earth itself was a tiny part of the uni verse rotating on it's axis and re- VolVing around the sun with other planets.
 It was dangerous to give out such an idea in the sixteenth cen tury so it was published when he was on his death bed.
 The Junior-Senior Prom was a great success. The high ceiling was placed in the center and beautifully decorated by twisted streamers radiated out from the top of the ladder to all parts of the balcony.
 Another successful event this week was the Junior-S Senior Ban quet held at the Pioneer Hall. A delicious meal was served and the occasion will long be remem- bered.
 Other events this coming week will be the Baccalaureate service on Sunday evening, final examin- ations on Monday and Tuesday. High School picnic Wednesday, graduation on Thursday and the closing day on Friday, May 18th.

THOSE devastating dust
l. storms and Sc we're
droughts which the Govern
ment now is attempting to
prevent from recurring in the
Middle West probably chased
the Indians off their farm
lands thousands of years ago,
just as they forced countless
farmers to move during the
depression sos.
This probability has been
uncovered in the Missouri
River Basin. It runs counter
to the theory that the storms
were a recent man-made de-
velopment caused by deple-
ton of timberlands and over
cultivation of farm lands.
ArcheologistS of the Ma
tional Park Service and the
Smithsonian Institution have
found that prehistoric Indians
lived in the basin as long as
1000 years ago.
The basin covers parts OF
seven States-Kansas, Nebras-
ka, Colorado, wyoming, Mon
tana, North and South Dakota
where a system of dams and
reservoirs is being built to
provide irrigation and pre-
vent floods. When the dams
are completed, large areas will
be covered with water, sub
merging for all time a great
wealth of archaeological infor-
nation. The psychologists
are working ahead of the
construction program.
The principal evidence was
the discovery last summer Of
the remains of prehistoric
Indian homes, buried below
the remains of Indian homes
of the historic period. The
dividing line between the his
toric and prehistoric Indian
is the arrival of Columbus in
America.
Separating the homes was
a layer of earth like that
blown by duststorms which
ruin crops and land. The
remains show the prehistoric
Indian lived in a permanent
house and was a community
dwelling, peaceful farmer. 1t
is unlikely that he was forced
out by invasion, but he may
have abandoned his home
because extended droughts
forced him to move on IN
