They then advertised the sal vaged material for sale and this cost ?omethir;g. They wore able to sell J175 worth of lumber from the build ing and used the rest to build some 'oal sheds. Was it profitable to own it? Seme I-Icnntains of the Bible VII Mt. MORI AH Gen. 22:2; 2nd Chronicles, 3:2. This mountain has a long and great history. It is connected with events that take its back to Abraham's time, around 19G0 B. C, when God tested Abraham's faith in calling on him to offer up Isaak; directing him to Mt. Moriah. where he arrived the third dav of his'journey. What an anxious journev this was; the ever present thought: "This is the last I shall see of my son; what will I tell Sarah what has become of Isaak? Jehovah is asking a hard thing of me, but His will be done." He goes confidently on, trusting God. He has fully surrendered to God. And God finds a way; He has provided a substitute in a ram, that was clese at nand, when needed. That is God's way. The test was a revere ore, but Abraham comes out the victor. The journey back is a ha pry o"e. So every follower of Christ, comes sooner or later to Mt. Moriah. This experience of Abra ham was never forgotten. He calls the place "Jehovah jireh" meaning "In the Mount of God it shall be scon." Later, we find King David buying this place from a stranger Oman, by name. It had teen used as a threshing floor, but was now being dedicated as a site for the first tem ple for Israel, Solomon being the builder. The scenes at the dedication of the temple were so impressive that they were recalled by the older people at the dedication of the second temple. It was a sight never to be forgotten. There was a vested choir, all dress ed in white, with cymbals and psal tries and harps, besides 120 priests with trumpets. They were so well trained that all the instruments and voices were as one voice and the cli max" came when the hymn of praise sounded forth, that Jehovah appear ed in his glory and filled the house. And to this day, the multitudes go ing to see the ruins of the destroyed temple on Mount Moriah. Since pen teccst religion has become universal, and is not localized in the temple of the jews. The mountains of the Bible teach us wonderful lpssons. L." NEITZEL. School tahlats at prices the lowest ! that you have seen at the Sates Sock I & Gift shop, So each or S5c for a i whole dozen.

First 90 Cities in Census Show Gain of 22.5 Growth of United States in Previous Decade Reached Average of 14.9 Per dent Washington Growth of 22.5 per cent in population during the last 10 years is shown by Iho first 90 cities of 10,000 or more inhabitants for which enumerations in the 1930 census have been announced. This first indication of the trend of the country's population is fur ni?V.ed by a compilation made by the Associated Press from the official pre liminary announcements of supervis or? throughout the country. The country's growth as a whole in the decade ending with 1920 was 14.9 per cent, while in the previous decade ending with 1910 it was 21.0 per cent. Growth of the country's urban population, that is people liv ing on places of 2500 or more in habitants, showed an increase of 25.7 per cent in the decade ending with 1920, and for the previous de cade it was 3 4,8 rer cent. Only one of the country's large cities has reported thus far. It is At lanta, which reported 266,557 per sons, an increase of 35.6 per cent over 1920. Of the cities thus far reporting, the largest percentages of increase have been shown by Ventura. Calif., with 1S6.3 per cent; Lakeland. Fla., with 130.2 per cent, and Decatur, Ga.. with 121.2 per cent. Cities showing 50 per cent or more increase in the 10 years are mostly in the South and West. None with that large an increase has been reported yet in the East; Half a dozen cities have shown de creases frcm 10 years ago. Three of these are in the East, including Fall River, Mass.. which -showed a decline cf 5.3 per cent and now has 114,345 pen-ons, and three are in the South west. There were 746 cities of 10,000 or more population in 1920. Cities in that category are expected to show a considerable increase in the pres ent census. Several already have en tered the 10,000-class, including Longview, Wash., which was not in existence in 1920, and now has 10, 491 persons. CHICAGO CRIME IS ASSAILED Chattanooga, Tenn. The same people who Friday heard Frank J. Loesch praise Chicago for its "physi cal, and spiritual advantages," Fri day night heard him assault the "or ganized crime and corrupt politics" ofi his home city. "The organized criminal could not maintain himself anywhere for a month after the commission of a ma jor crime if he were not protected by some influential police official and corrupt politician who may or may not hold office," Mr. Loesch told the ocncluding session of the University of Chattanooga's institute of justice. At a luncheon session of the in stitute Friday he said "Chicago's crime record sensationalized thruout the world, fairly obscures the fact that it is the wonder city of all time." CUT U. S. DEBT TO $16,303,734,000 Washington, May 2. At the end of April the American public debt amounted to $16,393,734,000, a re duction of $802,000,000 in a year and $10,200,000,000 since the peak Aug. 31, 1919, the treasury revealed Friday. In spite of the fact the treasury widely advertises maturities of gov ernment issues, in some cases of Li berty bond3 having resorted to radio talks, there still i3 $28,477,080 of the debt outstanding upon which in terest has ceased. The fact that in vestors are so careless as to lose hun dreds cf thousands of dollars an nually In interest is a question that haa puzzled the treasury for many years.

Business Warned to Treat Fairly with the Public Legislative Restrictions Are Shown Sure to Follow on Fail ure to Do So Washington In the keynote ad dress at the opening of the general session of the eighteenth annual meeting of the United States Cham ber of Commerce, William Butter worth, president, warned American business to keep faith with the pub lic under penalty of restrictive and retaliatory state or federal legisla tive action. Mr. Butterworth's address marked the formal opening of the session which had been preceded by meetings and a banquet of the American sec tion of the International Chamber of Commerce. Following his address the meeting resolved Itself into six round tables, discussing what lies ahead in the respective fields of banking, con struction, exporting, industrial de velopment, inland waterway develop ment and the natural resources In dustries. "May I say to you in all candor," Mr. Butterworth said in his speech, "that I am convinced that if our future near or remote holds in store a season of business baiting at the hands of lawmakers or other gov ernmental authorities, that relatively small part of the business commun ity which, cither through short sightedness or disregard of its larger interest, breaks the canons of fair play to which the vast majority of the business community gives hearty allegiance, will be responsible. "On the other hand, I am firmly convinced that as long as our public understands that business, itself realizes that it holds its tenure of liberty on good hehavior, the public, realizing its partnership in the eco nomic enterprises of the Nation, will not raise the hue and cry for re prisals which will abridge a legit mate business liberty." Mr. Butterworth recapitulated the activities of the national chamber in the past 3"ear and said the present meeting would give an opportunity of appraising current business condi tions, and the purpose of business it self. "Business has turned a critical eye upon itself," he said. "Out of this frauk self-appraisal, a fundamental fact emerges in its proper perspec tive, and that fundamental fact is that the primary object of business is not social uplift or, indeed, the fostering of the arts and sciences, but that it is, now, as it has always been in reality profits." From this primary object, how ever, Mr. Butterworth argued. Cow other considerations which have di rect Jiearing upon the whole national wellbeing. A policy of enlightened selfinterest demands a "sane social point of view." Failure to heed re sponsibilities, he warned, will bring reprisals. As to what lies ahead of business he declared: "There can be nothing ahead that bodes lasting ill if we keep the r'ght sort of leadership at the helm a leadership of onitiative and courage and imagination, a lerdership, in fine, which predicates policies upon a broad foundation of articulated facts, a leadership with courage to urge the application cf measures that prudence and common sense dictate, when and where needed." Melvin A. Taylor, president cf the Chicago First National Bank, and authority on reparations, defended the Bank for International Settle ments frcm charges that it was the agency designed to involve the Uni ted States "in some kind of a myster ious financial obligarchy." The primary purpose of the bank, he sjiil. is to collect and distribute reparations. In its financial traneca tions, he said, the United States is completely protected. Quoting from Article 20 of the bank's charter, he said that this prevented the bank from carrying out any financial oper ation on a given market without the consent of "the central bank or cen tral banks directly concerned." Nothing interfering with the finan cial sysem in New York, he declar ed, could be carried on, for example, without the consent of the governor of the Reserve bank in that area. SKIP OBJECT OF ANXIETY Sault Ste., Marie, Ont. Hard aground on a shoal a quarter mile north of Parisienne Island light, and with a storm sweeping Lake Super ior, the steamer Munising of the Cleveland Cliffs Iron company W2S the object of anxiety Friday in ship ping circles. Two other ore carriers and a lighter went to the aid of the Munising when she went aground Friday morning, but reported they were forced to run behind the island to ride out the storm. The crew of the Munising were believed still aboard her. There is still considerable ice floating in the lake and it was feared that this, driv en against the stricken vessel, would further imperil her. The storm sweeping the lake was of almost gale proportions and had stepped naviga tion. SIX FLIERS LEAP AS PROPELLER BREAKS Fresno, Cal., May 2. Six army aviators were forced to make para chute leaps and two others made a forced landing in a trimotored army plane in a vineyard near Oleandar, near here, Friday when one of the propellers broke. None of the fliers were injured. Miss Jean Tidball, who is teach ing in the city schools at Crete, is here to enjoy a visit ever the week end with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John L, Tidball. PAYS $5 TO LEAP IN AIR TO DEATH Redwood City, Cal., May 2. John Vucasovich, 4 0-year-old war vet eran, took his life Friday in ultra modern manner. A physical wreck as the result of injuries sustained in the world war, and his wife, an expectant mother, occupying a cot in Letter man general hospital, Vucasovich journeyed to Mills field airport near here and after much thought paid $5 to Pilot Walter Olsen, a commer cial aviator, to take him up for his first and last sky ride. Shortly after the take-off and while approximately 500 feet in the air, Vucasovich leaped from the scar ing plane and crashed to the ground, dead. Nebraska May Rate a Gain in Radio Stations More Power to Be Allocated State, if Couzens Bill Passes; Goes Orsr p. Term. Washington. May 2. Drastic re allocation of Nebraska radio stations far more sweeping than the changes made two years ago by the federal radio commission are in prospect up on passage of the revised Couzens communications bill now being con sidered in the senate interstate com merce committee. The committee probably will not report the measure at this session. It has made public the bill's provisions, however, in order to assure the wid est discussion of its features. This Is preliminary to a concerted movement at the next session cf congress for its passage. See Gain in Power. Nebraska wuold gain in radio fa cilities as a result of the proposed reallocation. At present, the country is divided into five zones. The Davis amendment directs that power, chan nel and time shall be divided as equally as possible among these zones. The present commission has been unable to accomplish this with respect to power. As a result, Nebraska has .731 per cent of the national power, whereas on a population basis it is entitled to 1,953 per cent. Entitled to the same percent of licenses and chan nels it now has 1,531 per cent of the total licenses and 1,946 per cent of the frequencies. Under the new plan established In the proposed bill, this system would be abolished. The new communica tion commission would first take 25 per cent of the radio facilities, in cluding power, channels, and time on the air, and give each state one forty-eighth. Creates New Commission. It would then take an additional 25 per cent and distribute it among the 48 states on the basis of their geographical area. The remaining 50 per cent then would be distri buted with regard to population. This would result in more stations in Nebraska according to present in dications, although no accurate pro phecy is yet possible. It would cer tainly result in more stations for the country at large. The bill established a new com munications commission similar to the interstate commerce body. It would have jurisdiction over tele phone and telegraph as well as ra dio. World-Herald.

Wheat Market Crisis Now Over, Legge Believes Farm Board's Action Avoided Drastic Slump, Federal Farm Board Chairman Declares Washington The first phase of the Government's gigantic operations in the wheat market under the agency of the Federal Farm Board is coming to a conclusion, and Alex ander Legge, chairman, in a revie w of the major factors, believes th.iL th worst storms of the critical per iod have been weathered. Through the Grain Stabllzatiou Corporation the agency set up t buy and ? 11 wheat and through the farmer-owned National Grain Cor poration the marketing agency ( f farm co-operatives backed by the Government approximately 5 0.0 (mi. -000 bushels of wheat have either been purchased outright or secured for delivery May 1. This so-ealb d "future" wheat is now pouring its golden stream into elevators all over the West. The Government, through its pr -tegor, came to the rescue of the wheat farmer undr the extraordin ary powers cf the Farm Act and pur chased this wheat at from around ?1 to $1.10 and over a bu?hel in one t f the greatest government-backed pur chasing campaigns in history. Mr. Legge holds that this step saved the market from a drastic and destruc tive slump. The problem that remains now m to get rid of this same wheat at a price equal to or greater than th: t which was paid for it. If this is doi then "stablization" will have been a success. Discussing the situation at iho present juncture, Mr. Legge explain ed that the great question of May 1 storage facilities has neen soie;i. This was a matter which critics of his policy alleged would bring tl:.- board to grief. He announced that William G. Kellogg, head of the Farmers National Grain Corporation, had been succeeded by George S. Milnor. Previously Mr. Milnor was head of the Graia Stablization Cor poration the emergency buying and selling agency authorized in extreme cases to take a surplus off the mar ket. For the present he will handle both the new work and the old. Mr. Legge said the trend of th Grain Corporation's policy has Ih ( ii toward promoting direct sales from grain growers to millers; in oth r words, from producer to processor, thereby cutting out the expensive- in tervening steps of merchandising. The chairman explained thaf tl " Farmers Grain Corporation, to which Mr. Milnor goes as the new heal, "had made their expenses, and per haps a little over," in handling grain from their member farm co-operatives to the millers. The amount handled approximated 2.500,00 bushels. "They are a little better off than they were last fall." Mr. Legge said in summarizing a'l that has hap pened in the period of Mr. Kellog's incumbency. Some of the 50,000,000 bushels of wheat is now being exported. Mr. Legge explained. Behind all pre.-ent moves is the effort cf the board to cut down wheat production by lit t" 20 per cent so that domestic eon sumption would equal supply, and the 42-cent tariff would become ef fective in setting a high price for ti c farmers. The country raires between SCO, 000. 000 and 000,000,000 bushels of wheat annually. CO-OPERATIVE TO LOCATE Chicago St. Paul, Duluth and Minneapolis are under consideration as the seat of the spring wheat area branch of the Farmers National Grain corporation, it was announc ed Friday by C. E. Huff, president of the corporation, on hi3 return from a series of conferences in the north west. The decision, regarded as one of considerable importance because cf the large amount of grain that will bo handled thru the corporation's stockholders in that territory, will be announced within the next few days, Mr. Huff said. "The branch offices of the corpor ation in the ncrthwest, wherever lo cated, will have Jurisdiction over a large grain area, extending from the lake ports of Duluth and Superior westward to the line in we.-tern Mon tana that divides the eastern an 1 western flow of grain," Mr. Hul' stated. It was estimated Friday from tho grain corporation offices that stock holders of the organization will han dle at least 100,000,000 bushels cf grain from the 1930 crop.
