Show Pass the Pencil Sharpeners Praise the Lord! Pick up your ammunition; Grasp the sword thats, waiting your volition, Desk or forge theyre in the front position. If wed all be free. Praise the Lord! All work is now deserving; The evil horde is out to get you swerving; Cant afford to miss a day of serving, Wherever you may be. Yes, the sky pilot said it Our brave heroes led it But a man behind a gunner we can all be, shouting Praise the Lord, its everybodys mission, Pray the Lord and heed His admonition; Help us Lord, to win, and not by wishing, Right and Victory! Cleone Montgomery. MUSEUM PLANS GAIN APPROVAL OF TWO BOARDS Mayor Suggests Funds of Pioneer Days Go Into New Relic Hall The Ogden city commission moved Tuesday toward permanent preservation of the Miles Goodyear cabin, in cooperation with the Daughters of Utah Pioneers, an L. D. S. church organization which has done much to preserve historical sites and relics. At a joint meeting of the city and county commissions, Mayor Harman W. Perry and W. R. McEntire, of the county commission, were named as a committee to work with the D. U. P. toward the objective of building a relic hall on the county city building grounds, for the permanent display of historical relics of the D. U. P. and other organizations. The Miles Goodyear cabin would also be set up on the city hall park, with the understanding that it would remain in control of the D. U. P., and that the organization would be privileged to remove it again to the L. D. S. tabernacle grounds, if and when a new tabernacle were built and proper space were provided. The cabin is reputed to be the first dwelling built by a white man in the state of Utah and is now located in the L. D. S. Third ward at Grant avenue. It was built by the trapper, Miles Goodyear, one of the earliest white explorers of Utah. Mayor Peery stated that he favored the appropriation of surplus money now in the Pioneer days fund for the purpose of building a suitable structure on the City Hall park area for the housing of relics and preservation of pioneer lore, and said that it was time something was done to aid this important historical work. The committee named to work with the D. U. P. was empowered to proceed with plans and specifications to be submitted later to a joint county city board meeting for approval. The committee from the D. U. P. organizations was headed by Mrs. Gladys Simpson. Other members were: Amelia Flygare, Lettie Manning, Olive M. Christiansen, Bertha Luddington, Mary Wangsgaard, and Rose Packer. J. A. Howell, attorney for the organization, accompanied the delegation. The Miles Goodyear cabin is owned by the Weber chapter D. U. P. It was built about 1841, and occupied by Miles Goodyear, a trapper, and his Indian squaw. NORSE EXPOSE BIG NAZI PLOT OF EXTORTION Germans Scheme to Sell Exit Permits From Occupied Lands LONDON, Nov. 24 The Netherlands government in exile charged Germany today with organizing a vast scheme of extortion by selling exit permits from occupied territory for great sums and said it would combat the traffic with every means in cooperation with the British and United States governments. Relatives and friends in allied and neutral territory receive a communication that persons in occupied territory will be ailowed to emigrate on condition that a considerable sum, in the currency of a neutral country, be made available to the enemy, it said. Along With Threat In some cases the request emanates from the prospective emigrant. In other cases the attempt is made through associates of the enemy in neutral territory. The request is sometimes accompanied by an open or veiled threat that those concerned will be sent to a concentration camp should the ransom not be forthcoming. Evidence which has reached The Netherlands government and the governments of the United Kingdom and the United States indicates that the practices are organized by the German authorities and that our enemies are doing their utmost to increase their holdings of neutral currency. Sums Very Large The sums demanded, it said, are very large sometimes as high as the equivalent of 20,000 a head. The Netherlands government, after consultation with the Britishand, U. S. governments, it announced, reluctantly have come to the conclusion that they cannot yield to German attempts at extortion. It said that while a few might escape the sadism and terror of the nazis, there remained the accumulated misery and starvation of those left in occupied territory and they will remain subjected to nazi rule as long as the enemys foreign assets will enable him to stave off the day of his defeat and the liberation of the oppressed European peoples, |
