HITLER AFFIRMS POSSESSION Adolf Hitler has not yet made announcement of his plans for fur ther conquest, but he has issued a proclamation that what has been taken belongs to Germany. ‘‘This I swear and so do all of us; what we once possess we will never un der any circumstances surrender,” Hitler assured East Prussians in a tour of their province. SILVER-BUYING STOPS The United States has cancelled thfc order tp buy silver from Mexi co, effective April 1. For some time this country has bought from Mexico each month silver valued at s2|soo,ooft, vhich is a sizable sum for any .nation* The cancellation of future buying is thought by the country's government having ex upon international relations. Uncle Sam will be represented by a huge Federal Building which will be placed at the head of a Hall of Nations, where foreign coun tries, 64 of which have agreed to participate, will show their official exhibits at the Fair. All the buildings will be grouped propriated oil industries leased by citizens of the U. S. and of Eng land. This taking over the oil in dustry was the culmination of la bor troubles, the operators having failed to meet demands for increas ed wages and better conditions. AMERICAN SANCTUARY President Roosevelt has offered sanctuary in this country to minor ities oppressed by dictators in other countries. How to carry out the provisions of this offer and at the same time observe immigration quotas is a matter not yet decided upon. Scout Troop Is Making Progress Troop 40, Zebulon Boy Scout Troop, is making rapid progress in its organization work. Twenty seven boys have passed their ten derfoot tests to date. They are Allan Marshburn, Dwite Debnam, Charles Whitley, Tom Ivey, Billy Green, Jack Gregory, Matthew Liles and Charles Hinton, the pa trol leaders, and J. K. Watson, Bil ly Keith, Jack Hinton, R. C. Hor ner, Oran Daniel Massey, Wilbur Debnam, Ray Pippin, Harmon Mc- Intire, Donald Massey, Elmer Harr oil, R. H. Brantley, Fred Pearce. Billy Bell, Donald Pippin, E'arry Davis, Willard Wright, Jack Liles, Marshall Keith, and Albert Green. Our goal is to have at least twenty-five scouts pass their sec ond-class test before the close of school. We likewise hope to make considerable use of our new scout tents each week-end, enabling the boys to have first-hand camp ing experience in preparation for summer vacation. Mr. Mclntire has recently taken charge of a patrol and promises to be a valuable asset to the scout organization, having had previous experience as scoutmaster. The troop is getting excellent co-operation from its scout com mittee elected from the Rotary Club. At the last scout meeting on March 24th committees were ap pointed to work on a scout merit and demerit point system for the troop. Such systems in use else where have proved themselves very valuable in strengthening the or ganization. It is hoped that in the near future some very satisfactory results of these plans may be re ported. RONALD I.
