Governor Moore Voices Principles Amid Wheat Price Debate
The article recounts Alfred Holman lauding Idaho Governor Charlie Moore as a practical, plainspoken leader unlikely to support price fixing. Moore argues government control of one commodity risks broader economic interference and socialism, reflecting his straightline Republican stance and commitment to party obligations. The piece also notes Moore’s reluctance on re election and his caution against war-time price precedents becoming normal policy. The text ends with reflections on vast uncovered areas on maps globally, illustrating remaining terra incognita beyond familiar regions.

Under English Channel tunnel plans pivot to middle outward dig
The article reports a radical shift in English Channel tunnel plans. Engineers propose digging from the middle outward with eight sea shafts and use of caissons to keep waters out, allowing excavated material to be blown back into the seabed rather than hauled away. The project is likened to an engineering marvel rivaling the Panama Canal and other feats.
