Today, the descendant of Wells Fargo, the Railway Express Agency, is writing a new chapter in the history of American service indusr tries. More than a decade ago, it took to the air with the inaugera- tion of an Air Express division. It has pioneered air express with the same tenacity and thoroughness that made its stagecoaches famous. By coordinating it with rail express, 23,000 communities having railway express offices are now able to enjoy the benefits of air express.

They'll tell you he merits your vote and support at the State Primary Election on ~une 27th. STAMBAUGH FItR SENATOR COMMITTEE II I ~ (Pol. Adv.) portunity between its borders? It is all of these--and yet none of these, this lands of ours . . . America is the thin sweet chorus of children singing "My Country, 'fls of Three "Sweet Land of Liberty . . ." In the homes and schoolrooms of our country, uncom p r e h e n d i n g young eyes on the star-spangled flag, little lips forming the words they cannot yet understand "Long may our Land be Bright "With Freedom's holy Light "'ProteCt us by Thy Mighi "Great God. our King." THAT is America! ---V.-- THE ROAD BACK One of the biggest threats to pri- vate enterprise after the war is the tremendous amount of money the federal government now has in- vested in all kinds of business, as a war measure--some $20,000,000,0(D. When the war emergency is over, the postwar employment emergency will be used as an argument to keep the government in business. Hence, planning by private enter- prise, such as is being done by the American Road Builders Associa- tion, to provide peacetime jobs, is of the utmost importance. Highway construction is impor- tant at any time, but after the war it will be doubly so. Like all transportation facilities, roads are being pounded to pieces by war traffic, many of Shem are not being repaired, and badly needed new construction has been postponed. Highway expenditures in 1930 amounted to nearly a billion and a half dollars. In 1943, they dropped to but $300,000,000, and in 1944 to about $150,000,000. As upwards of 7,000,000 jobs de- pend on good highways, in normal times, it is easy to see how impor- tant road construction and main- ~nance will be in postwar planning to put American business back on a sound, self supporting basis. ----V-- BASEBALL OPENS The American people love base- ball, and they are mighty glad it can continue in wartime. It is a grand old game, and it stirs" the hearts of millions of men and boys, and a good many women, too. Thrilling scenes as the players twirl the white sphere around the diamond will help people keep from worrying too constantly about wartime troubles. They will forget their anxieties as they see the ball batted out far into the field, and zipping across the bases to put some runner out. The school teams will get needed: exercise and physical training out of it, and the boys will be better fitted for military service later through this vigorous activity. The strength and speed they develop will make it easier for them to stand the rigors of war service, and will quicken their mental pow- ers and make them alert to see situations and act in a hurry. The athletic ability of ou~ youth counts in this war. It makes men faster ,in their airplane work, more skillful in their manipulation of all kinds of weapons, and gives them an edge over the youth of lands where athletics are not so well de- veloped. Ball players perform a service to the armed forces, since the service- men are keen to get the scores of the games and the government has arranged to broadcast to the men overseas play-by-play accounts of five games a week. The story of the games coming over the radio as it does at home will cheer mil- lions of men in far distant scenes. It will make home seem nearer and take their minds off their war troubles. The game is needed at home for the recreation of the people, and the professional games stimulate the boys to keep up their practice of this favorite sport. The old fashioned home centered in the kitchen. Then for many years it centered in the parlor, and during recent years, up to the time of automobile restrictions, it seem- ed to center in the garage. Mount Vesuvius Destroys NAPLES, ITALY 2- Vesuvius i~ again in eruption, the worst since 1872. Towns have been destroyed, some of which are Pompeii, San Sebastiano, /Massa Di Somma and Cercola. U. S. Army trucks have successfully evacuated, the inhabi- tants of the villages so that no casualties occurred according to latest reports. The hot lava is a vicious force flowing steadily down the side of Vesuvius. At intervals like the beat of a pulse, the hot molten mass surges ahead with every belch from the interior of the volcano and destroys prbperty, orehar(~s, and vineyards ~ every- thing in its path. Twenty-one counties in North Dakota have started grasshopper control plans by signing agreements with the Federal Grasshopper Con- trol office.

"The war stories I like best, Judge, are the ones by the special writers owerseas who live right with our troops. They give us, a better idea of how our men react to things going on over there and back here at home." "I agree with you, Sam. I never miss one of those stories in the papers or magazines. And there's one thing those writers seem to agree on no matter where they are stationed with our men.., and that is that the men who have left their homes and families to go away and fight this wa~ don't want to come back and find that prohibition has been put over on them while they were away.., either nationally or locally. They have heard about the attempts being made and they resent it bitterly." "I agree with them, Judge, even though I don't happen to drink myself. Further. more, I don't think it's fair for us at home to be making any major changes while 10,000,000 of our fighting men are away and have no chance to express their opinions."
