TROOP TRAINS ROLLING— past week, troop trains have been roll T HIS ing. Real troop trains, filled with young men in khaki and ‘over sea’s caps. However, they are a bit different than those which we oldsters remember in ’17 and ’18, when such trains, as silently and as stealthly as death, stole out of unannounced stations, sped over cleared tracks, disgorged their loads as quietly and as stealthly, at some distant and sec ret terminal. Human loads, which at some later dawn, marched in long silent lines through some city’s sleeping streets, to be loaded on ships that ploughed through torpedo and mine infested waters, and to disembark on a foreign .country’s soil. There to be shot down, blinded, wounded, gassed, and maimed in muck and mire. Some never returned, those that did, came back with the horror of war seared on their souls and gleaming from their eyes. Why? Because some place, some one, had de clared a war that got beyond all bounds and someone had to fignt to end it all—for all time. That is what they told us then. Now, we smile at the naive trust with which we believed them. But whether we had to fight or did not have to, whether we were fearless or foolish, whether it was the tragedy of the century or a mark of gov ernmental genius, we are still too close in history to know the whole truth, yet. That must come to a future generation. It is they, who will mark us as gullible idiots, or inspired patriots. But these new troops that are rolling, speed ing merrily along, khaki clad youths waving from open windows? No grim purpose in their eyes, rather a happy expectation of pleasant things to come. Members of the Civilian Conser vation Corps are they, transported off the streets by this same government, but under a new deal, to places where they can work, have a chance to become men. A gigantic experiment that is, to our minds, proving one of the finest and most gratfying of them all. Perhaps we will not get a hundred per cent perfect result, but we are getting real, worth-while work done. They, are learning the value of patiotism and dicipline, from men who have long ago learned it on the field of battle. And with a new citizenry and a new youth, trained to appreciate and respect their govern ment, we have little to fear within our borders of Fascism or Communism. And we can thank our God again, for the peace within our Nation and with other Nations, when all the world seems to have again gone mad, with hate and strife and mis-trust. May our leaders not fail us here, but keep the troop trains rolling, filled with rehabilitated youth in the peace time uni form of the U.S.A. + “UNLESS YOU HELP YOURSELF" a group of farmers at the re A DDRESSING cent New York state fair, State Senator George Regers said, “Unless you help yourself, no one can do anything for you.” No advice could be simpler, sounder or wiser. The farmer who looks to some outside agency such as the govenment to bring America pros perity and solve his problems, is doomed to dis appointment -and he should be. Fortunately for agriculture, this type of fanner is in the min ority. During the fast few decades farmers have done a great deal to help themselves through co operative marketing associations. It speaks well for the farmers’ foresight and intelligence that during the depression the established coopera tives registered great advances in both their membership and their influence. Yes, farmers are helping themselves and they are gradually achieving the success they de serve.—Industrial News Review. + MANIPULATORS AT WORK— IT’S the same old excuse. “Congress is in ses sion’, that big shots in Wall street are again using to nin tne price of stocks and farm commo dities down to a point that is causing a small sized panic. Both gambling in stocks and grains could be stopped—simply by doing away with ‘short’ or ‘hedge’ selling. I lips Lot 7 Block 10 Nyssa 10, 4, 37 $ 10 . O. E.
