He has also expressed his
opinion that a Republic is
the best form of government.
The states of South America |
have been governed as Repub-
lies. Their wealth and land is
owned by small group of
wealthy citizens who comprise
the qualified electorate. The
common people are in peOnage
and servitude, extreme poverty
and illiterate. No voice in gov
ernment. North America chose
a Representative Democracy
where the people are supreme.
The result has been a land of
freedom and opportunity where
the living standards are the
highest of any country in the
world. Surely no United States
citizen of the common people
would want to trade.
Birch Bark No. 8 indicates
support of ALL other so called
anti-Communist groups. Surely
not the extremists, sometimes
referred to as "the lunatic
fringe" whose program calls
for 1. Get the United States
out of the UN. 2. Stop all for
eign aid. 8. Repeal the income
tax, thereby repeating our ma
tional defense. 4. Abandon MA
TO and bring our troops home
from Europe. 1t is difficult to
imagine a program that could
delight Kruschev more. 1t is
| just what he wants. How can
self-styled anti Communists
have the same aim and pur-
pose as the Communists?
The greatest Leader of all
time said: ''By their fruits ye
shall know them" Not by what
they say. Not by the cloak they
wear, which may sometimes
be the cloak of religion. Not
by wrapping themselves in the
sacred folds of the flag. But
by the fruits they produce
No loyal American will faibri-
cate hoaxes to "scare the day,
lights" out of decent citizen.

to the Editor:

Letter to the Editor:
In the last couple of months
rumors ard outright lies have
been flying around about what
was said and done by local
law enforcement officers.
I, Wilbur Cornelia, Richland
County Sheriff, will clear them
up for you and if you want
proof, you can get that, too.
If you will recall a couple of
months ago ,one of our local
boys was involved in an acci-
dent just west of the Sidney
city limits and later died from
injuries caused in the accident.
The rotten lies and rumors
started that very same night
of the accident. The youngsters
around the Sidney area claimed
that I, Wilbur Cornelia, upon
reaching the scene of the acci-
dent rolled the boy over on
the highway and checked to
see if he had his drivers Ii
cense with him before l even
checked to see if he was hurt.
Ladies and gentlemen, was
not even out to the accident.
1 was home in bed at the time
it was investigated by the
Highway Patrol, but instead of
anyone finding out the truth
before they started talking and
spreading a bunch of rotten
lies and rumors about what
they heard, they figured it had
to be the truth because it came
from some of these leading
youths in the Sidney schools

Chaplain, no YMCA, no USO,
no Red Cross, no movies, no

The barracks were of adobe,
with tin roofs, with wood

Due to the mile-high elevation,
the winters were cold, requir-

The stagecoach ran twice a
week carrying mail, express and
passengers, making a one-way
trip in 3 days. This vehicle bore
no resemblance to the movie
stagecoaches, but was more on
the order of a blackboard, with
canvas top and let-down can
vas sides, and four seats. There
was a boot in the rear for the
baggage. The vehicle was pull

I had enlisted for service in
the Philippine Islands, and

sent from Jefferson Barracks,
Mo-, to Fort Apache. Upon my
arrival I found Headquarters
had just been issued a SMITH
PREMIER typewriter, a ma
chine having two keyboardS
and no shift. While it turned
out beautiful work, it was diff
cult to operate after being &C
cuStomed to shift machines.
Actually, there was little use
tor a typewriter excepting for
correspondence, as all the rec
ords were kept in large s x 13
leather bound books. There
were separate books for the
Morning Report, Sick Report,
General Orders, Special Orders,
Memoranda, Letters Sent, Let

and muster rolls were so large
they could not be used in the

ACC Told
Hearings
Are Planned

In reply to a query from the
president of the Allied Civic
Group the County Council last
week advised that it will hold
hearings on the report of the
Public Administration Service
and on the report of the Gov.
eminent Operations Committee
of the Allied Civic Group though
1t has not scheduled dates for
such hearings. The Council COM
mented that it considered both
reports as highly valuable.
The Public Administration
Service Report, prepared by a
professional consultants' firm
hired by the Council to make
a survey of government in
Montgomery County was con.
tanned in two volumes filed with
the Council last summer. This
report covered the internal oper-
atoms of the various depart.
ments of the county govern.
ment. 1t also surveyed the bi.
county agencies and certain
aspects of the municipalities in
the county. 1t made a number
of recommendations with re.
Spect to these matters.
The report of the Govern
ment Operations Committee was
the work of a special commit
tee created to survey and report
on the operations of the various
governments functioning in the
county and the inter-relations
between those governments.
This report was completed in
early December of last year,
and contains many recommen-
dations, some of which were in
accord with those of the Public
Administration Service; others
differed from those of the PAS
Report.
Each report dealt with some
matters and contained recon.
mendations concerning them
which were not treated in the
other report.
