SHIELDS
A huge surprise party was given
at the beautiful and commodius
home of Mr. and Mrs. Emil Block
on Saturday, Feb. 19, that proved
to be a complete success from every
angle. They entertained a large
number of frieifds and relatives
who came to celebrate, and they
met with general approval. We
were =dl under the impression thatj
the Block family did not approve
of dancing and card playing, but
the way Emil cut loose and went
into a tailspin, wasn’t slow.
This program was planned prior
to the snow storm and it looked as
though it would have to be post
poned on account of the congested
roads. But it had no ill effect on
the attendance that twisted in from
every direction as some of the
roads were made impassible by the
drifts of snow.
Paul Cihtous, Alfred Cemause
of Verdigre, and Clarence Butter
field, Vivian Coutts and Francis
Meyer of O’Neill, furnished excel
lent music for the evening pro
gram. There were two large rooms
where the light fantistic had ac
cess to, and made good use of it
for the rest of the night. The
piano accordian was a great sensa
tion and enjoyed very much.
A round table discussion of con
ditions locally and otherwise, got
them all to talking and made the
evening interesting. We all ad
mired the intelligence and well
instructed influence and the local
participants enjoyed the visiting
stranger^ very much, and their
music was a treat to this locality.
We all enjoyed the delicious re
freshments at midnight, a repast
that was nicely balanced in variety.
The best thing about these
events is that they are free to all,
and if they weren’t it would be a
knockout blow. Much credit is due
(the efficient assistants for the
success of this affair. About three
o’clock the stains of “Home, Sweet
Home” cdncluded the program,
when all dispersed, extending their
hospitality to all concerned. Trust
ing that we may all meet again
with a recreation of the same kind.

lunch together. Both are against
a big navy and a big army. The
latter comes from Montana. She
used to be a congresswoman and
voted against America’s entry into
the World War.
When the naval bill comes up on
the floor, there will be a bitter
fight. One amendment to provide
money for defense only will be
launched. Three groups will "be
seen in this fight. One is composed
of the real pacificists. Another is
the big navy lobby, and the other
is the “for national defense only”
group.
If the plans of the big navy
people go thru, Uncle Sam may
have two navies. One for the east
and one for the west coast. Ex
perts here say that our future line
of defense may be drawn from
Alaska south to Hawaii and Gaum;
thru the Panama canal and the
Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico in
the Atlantic.
Once the 14-inch gun was the
real weapon on a battleship. Ex
perts now say they hear Japan is
installing 18-inch guns. So the
ships with the 14 or 16-inch guns
would be at the mercy of a ship
with 18-inch guns. If foreign
countries install 18-inch guns,
Uncle Sam will have to do it. That’s
why our experts watch with great
interest just what the other na
tions are doing.
Trade Disputes Are Endless
Free traders and anti-free trad
ers have their daily debates in the
house these days. One side says
the tariff is the cause of all our
ills. The other side says free trade
ruins the American market for
Americans. One side says for
eigners can’t pay us the 11 bil
lion dollars they owe us until they
trade us something. Farm dis
trict members say they don’t want
to trade with foreigners who have
nothing to trade except farm com
modities. The easterners don't
want any free trade on finished
goods or machinery. Others say a
lot of countries owing us^ these
billions have no money and have
to send us anything they have
whether its farm commodities or
machines. That’s why a lot of
people here say that maybe we
would be better off if the foreigners
didn’t owe us a penny. A lot of
these would like us to cancel those
debts.
