THERE Is something new In the wind on Russia. It seems that a few days ago our ambassador in Moscow (Gen eral Walter Bedell Smith) put the situation up to Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov. Why, Smith is reported to have said to Molotov, can't our two countries get to gether and make a decent and reasonable settlement of all of this business that is tearing the world asunder? He is supposed ot have added that the United States of America ISN'T bluffing. Its Russian pol icy, he is said to have told the Russian foreign minister, has the full support of an overwhelming majority of the American people. Our policy, he is reported to have added, will be vigorously and firmly prosecuted. Even If there should be a de pression, he is said to have In formed Molotov, it won't affect In any way our basic productive capacity or change our minds as lo what we are going to do about It If Russia keeps on acting as the hps been acting. ' MOREOVER, General Smith is said to have concluded, WE THINK RUSSIA IS TO BLAME FOR WHAT HAS HAPPENED. So why don't we get together, man to man, and talk It out to a finish and then DO SOMETHING CONSTRUCTIVE ABOUT IT? ' ACCORDING to the Moscow radio, Molotov Is supposed to have answered that the Soviet Union Is ready to pursue "a pol icy of peace and co operation with the United States," and to get together with us for "discussion and settlement" of differences that have split the postwar world. : t IT sounds good. As a matter of fact, It sounds too good to be true. If we're wise, we'll keep our fingers crossed. Wo certainly mustn't let up any in our plans to get strong enough to back up any policy that we may announce. But at least wo can watch In terestedly what follows this new and dramatic move on our part.

The sophomore stunt featured two "Indians , mounted on the shoulders of two other "Indians" In totem' pole fashion, standing solemnly while a group of stu dents in "locomotive" formation entered and gave a few yells. As the Indians knew nothing of foot ball, a demonstration was given tor their benefit. The Juniors put' a great amount of pep and coordination into their stunt. Serpentining Into the as sembly behind five suited football players, they gave a series of yells and songs. The seniors staged a colorful Indian war dance. Girls dressed in the fashion of Indian maidens and boys wearing blankets sang school songs and gave yells. : The FFA program, under the direction oi i-iomer urow, ad visor, was a demonstration on how an FFA meeting is called to order by ritual method, and how a meeting is conducted by the members under strict parliamen tary procedure.

"I was born In Bennington, Kansas, Nov. 9, 1895, and moved witn my parents to Colorado at an early age. I am married and have two children; both of age IIUW. "I first camo to Douglas County in the spring of 1924 for a visit with relatives. I was so impressed with the friendliness of the people, the natural beauty aim puiumiai resources, rnat I returned in the fall of 1927 to make my permanent home. I purchased a home and accepted employment from one of the large automobile agencies. I re mained with this concern 13 years, being employed as sales man and salesmanager. For the past six years I have been with the sheriffs office, holding the position of criminal deputy. "During the 21 years I have resided in Douglas County, it has been my pleasure and duty to hnve traveled over all the countv and state roads. Very few resi dents of the county have a more thorough knowledge of the entire county road system than I pos sess. "I have made no campaign promises, nor have I any axe to grind. If elected, I will meet each problem as it arises and deal with it to the best of my ability. I realize the many problems con fronting the County Court at this time, for Douglas County is go ing inrougn a vast cnange. i am definitely for the best roads pos sible, for nothing can contribute more to the economic stability of a county than the roads its citi zens travel for work or pleasure."

If the weather is stormy, the paper should be piled on their porches, as no wet paper can be handled. ine scouts win make but one thorough trm over the citv. but will not have time to make a second trip, so the paper should oe oui eany enough that it will not be overloked. Areas of the town not covered Saturday will be cleaned up Sunday. Most "flints" for mechanical lighters are made from en alloy of one of the rare earths. Before World War II about 40 per cent of all U. S. exports went to the British Empire.
