Economist vs. space spending sparks debate on exploration
An economist warns that space programs may not yield immediate wealth or living standards. He cites Lt Zebulon Pike and Pike's Peak to argue the desert frontier would limit growth. Yet support builds for space tech spin offs, industry gains, and strategic competition with the USSR, with a claim that many will need to migrate as space expands beyond Earth.

Relief rolls tell of a mother with six children
A woman on local relief rolls bears the burden of unpaid bills while her missing husband is gone. The piece notes how taxes and living costs shrink what a family can keep, and mentions a husband who faced troubles by passing them to his wife. The regional snapshot ends with a note on Wallace County Kansas.
Laughable forecasts and regional risk in a murky editorial
The piece riffs on funding murder trials and local economics, arguing a town must be able to pay for a trial before creating a separate district. It muses on dangers of loafers and heart strain from snow shoveling, then shifts to international mentions of King Saud, the Shah of Iran, and the slow trickle of human rights into the Middle East.
