Although the written history Of
Tuba City extends back less than
200 years, the area has been
inha bited since earliest times.

several places. Prehistoric
horses, bison, cameIs, elephants,
and other animals freouented the
nearby springs, tor their teeth

were cleared out. Dart points and

years later, they found Indians

has been no lack of human occu-
pancy ever since.
In 1875 a party of Mormons
came to the area and began

The Basic Puritan Ethic'

Chairman Walter Heller of the
Presidents Council of Economic Advisers
is both surprised and disturbed over
what he calls "the basic Puritan ethic of
the American people" as reflected in
their wariness about supporting tax
cut for themselves. He told the House.
Senate Economic Committee that there
would have to be a greater public edu-
cation in economics" to make clear to
these cautious folk the wisdom of tax
cut while the Federal budget is deep in
red ink. Mr.. Heller is not frightened, of
course, by budget deficits and he is con-
fident that the administration plans to
cut taxes-for some of the people, If not
all Of the people-will lead to higher
consumer spending, faster economic
growth and more employment.
Without disputing this latter thesis
at the moment, we still have feeling of
some respect for basic Puritan ethic"
that prompts some Americans to believe
that there Is virtue in living within ones
income. 1t is comfortable state of af-
fairs when 1t can be achieved, and we
just hope that the day (or the fiscal
year, will come when the Federal Gov
ernment can accomplish the same.

Canada and Us

Lester Pearson, leader OF Canada's
Liberal Party, has acted in keeping with
character In declaring that his country
must honor It's pledges to arm with
nuclear warheads within the framework
Of the Atlantic alliance and the
North American defense system. Prime
Minister Diefenbaker and his Conserva-
tive government have fallen because OF
having equivocated and vacillated on
this matter. AS result, the Canadian
people will go to the polls in April to
choose between Mr.. Diefenbaker's view
and Mr.. Pearsons.
On our side Of the border, needless
TO say, we must maintain the appear
ance OF objectivity Nevertheless we
cannot deny that Mr.. Pearson is right
In feeling that his land and ours, for
the sake OF mutual security and survival,
must cling together in nuclear sense
and otherwise. Certainly, when one
looks at our two countries-in terms
OF geography, political temperament,
shared traditions, economic interests,
military imperatives and sheer good
neighborliness-it seems almost unbe-
lievable that there should be any
cleavage between US. Which raises the
question: Is there, really2

Are we back to normal? Has the
President really got the country moving
again? Usually these and similarly
provocative questions might merely be
teasers, leading into next weeks breath
taking inStallment. But not this time.
No, stree. The signs are unmistakably

Everything's moving, not only
Marines as the President originally
directed. In fact, the Marines will have
to'hurry to catch up with all the other
moving objects-Governme officials,
collegians, almost all the Kennedys
(men, women and children), plain citi-
zens, and an assorted array OF dogs, cats
and the like.
They are all walking, a few as far
as the so miles President Kennedy pre-
scribed as test for Marines; others,
like the President himself, a short block
or two. But they are moving, and
already the bolder ones are innovating-
some dribbling basketballs perhaps a
few walking on their hands.

Causes of Crime

Serious crime in Washington in
creased last month by whopping TIA
per cent over January year ago. This
was the seventh consecutive month in
which crime in the Nations Capital
climbed to new levels as compared with
a year ago.
There are, we suppose, many rea-
sons for this. And doubtless the familiar
excuses, explanations and alibis will be
readily forthcoming. The details Of two
recent crimes, however, expose one i'm
portant reason for which there can be
no possible excuse.
Last month 17-year-old hoodlum
forced his way into the home of Brooks
Hays, special White House assistant,
robbed Mrs. Hays and broke her wrist
In the process. A few days later this
worthy was picked up by police after
attempting to break into the Capitol Hill
home of Washington Post reporter.
:. Then the oft-told story began to
unfold. Considering his age, this thugs
criminal record is truly impressive. 1t
began when he was 13 with a house.
breaking. The records indicate that
nothing was done about this. A year
later, however, while armed with a
knife, he stole a pocketbook from a
woman. -Four months later he entered
an apartment and took some money
from another woman at knifepoint. Six
days later, still armed with a knife,
he robbed yet another woman and
attempted to rape her.
81 When Juvenile Court got around to
the case the three offenseS were tried
and the youth was committed to the
Welfare Department until he reached
age 18. But the Welfare Department
sent him to correctional institution,
from which he was released after IS
months. On March II, 1862, he broke
into construction trailer and was
sentenced to the National Training
School for Boys. The sentence was
suspended in Juvenile Court, however,
and he was put on probation. Four
months later he was caught stealing
from a Supermarket. Juvenile Court
continued his probation.
Then came the robbery of Mrs.
Hays. Is anyone surprised?
The second crime involved an al
legged rape of school girl earlier this
month. One Of the men charged in that
case is 10 years old. Last year he was
charged in l6 robberies. He was also
arrested for housebreaking, assaulting
a woman and disorderly conduct. In
September he was indicted on robbery
charge and released on $1,50O bond. In
October he was charged with a later
robbery, but apparently was permitted
to remain free on bond. Next came the
alleged rape.
Too much crime In Washington?
or course there is. And there always
will be as long as the kid-glove treat
ment Of criminals is the rule rather
than the exception.

Gettysburg Stamp

The Gettysburg commemo-
rative stamp design selected
and all the other designs
shown in The Sunday Star
and This Week completely
miss the special significance
of the battle at Gettysburg:
1t was the turning point
in the war to save the Union.
Lincoln's Gettysburg Address
has immortalized the battle
and placed it in the annals
of world literature, probably
to live long after other Civil
War battles are forgotten. In
other words, Lincoln's great
speech has, perhaps more
than the battle itself. made
the worldwide reputation of
the Gettysburg battle. And it
was here that Lincoln not
only dedicated a burial
ground, but enlarged the
theme to embrace a whole
Nation and its living "dedi-
Gated to the proposition that
all men are created equal"
Now, were the artists who
submitted designs unaware Of
this special significance, or
were they unable to illustrate
it? All of the 10 finalist de-
signs would serve equally well
to commemorate any Civil
War battlefield. That's what
they are: merely symbols of
any Civil War battle-ground.
And Gettysburg is not just
any Civil War battlefield.
If 1t Is not already too late,
I propose that a commemo-
rative stamp be issued for the
centennial anniversary Of the
Gettysburg Address, which
will be November 10, this

at q comprehensive under

Soviet Russian imperio-colo-

this system is the most vll-

The persistent struggle for

Republicans. Former Senator
Knowland has been making
noises indicating a mood to
enter the senatorial race
against Senator Engle. Since
Mr.. Knowland lost to Gov.
Brown by q million votes in
1858, 1t is questionable he
could take over party leader
ship, however.
Senator Kuchel is a War
ren-type Republican. In other
words, he is not hide-bound,
but retains the right to make
his own decisions which may
run counter to those of party
leadership in Congress. He
believes the Senate antifili-
buster rule should be
strengthened, for example,
that something should be
done about medicare for the
aged and Federal aid to edu-
cation. Like Chief Justice
Warren, he has a big follow
ing among the Democrats Of
California, and he Is not apt
to jeopardize this popularity
by strenuous partisanship,
any more than Mr.. Warren
did when he was Governor.
Yet, again, he appears the
most reasonable rallying post
for the California Republic
cans, and his personal popu-
larity has grown with each
election since he was first
appointed to the Senate seat
once occupied by Richard M.
Nixon who had become Vice
President. If he were Cover
nor instead of Senator, there
would be no question as to
his assuming the party lead
ership.
Strong Republican Needed
Under all the circumstan-
ces, 1t may take a strong and
popular Republican candidate
for President to bring G. O.P.
forces together and to dent
Democratic control of Cali
fornia. So far there has been
no crystallization among the
Republicans of the State on
a presidential nominee next
year. There are signs that
Gov. Rockefeller Of New York
will have a big following
when the chips are down.
Obviously the New York Gov
ernor is an active candidate
for the nomination as Of to-
day. And just as obviously
he will wish to learn how
the political wind is blowing
in California. In 1860, when
he was dabbling his toes in
presidential waters, he went
to California and found the
organization closely tied to
Mr.. Nixon. His cool reception
there was one of the reasons
he decided not to make the
race for the nomination.
With Mr.. Nixon out Of the
picture, Gov. Rockefeller
should make an appeal to
California Republicans, al
though the conservative wing
may go for Senator Gold
water Of Arizona. Two other
Republican Governors, how
ever-Scranton of Pennsyl-
vania and Romney Of Mich
igan-are possible entries in
CALIFORNIA; presidential pri-
mary. If they are willing to
run.
California, indeed, is a

the nomination and. second,

Shades of Mckinley

The Democratic Party or
dinarily is pictured in Amer
lea as the party of the COM
mon man. Yet the tax cut
proposal that President Ken
nedy has given Congress
looks more like it was au-
thored by William Mckinley.
Unfortunately, 1t does not
seem as though many peo-
pie have actually examined
how 1t will operate. Families
with taxable income of $12,-
900 or less will receive q cut
of between $40 and $40.
Yet the higher the income,
the greater is the percentage
of the tax cut, and, obviously,
the actual dollars received.
For example, a family with a
taxable income of $4,000
would receive q cut of ST.
080, q family with $4,000
would receive $3.50, and so
on. The fact is, the pro-
posed tax cut will not even
be noticed by the great ma
jority of families whose tax
able income is under $4,000
a year while those in the
upper income brackets will
reap quite a windfall.
Furthermore, President t
Kennedy's proposals for re-
forming the tax system are
amazing. He doesn't even go
through the motions Of ask
ing for the closing of the
most notorious tax loopholes.

gifts for churches and chari-
