Rumors of American .
Troops in Canada Brings
Visions of Dollars*
American troops will again be
stationed at key points along the
Alaska Highway, according to
rumors circulating in western
Canada recently.
The Alaska Highway News,
published in Fort St. John, B. C.,
reported on the story as follows:
“We were told that some 2,000
United States troops were im
mediately being stationed here.
What a bustle this caused among
local storekeepers who had vi
sions of the return of the ‘Good
Old Days,’ when dollars were as
plentiful as mosquitoes in sum
mertime in muskeg.”
American history would have
us believe the Indians were an
uneducated, backward race, but
when they were running this
country there wei’e no taxes, no
debts and the women did all the
work. Who could hope to improve
a setup like that?
An efficiency expert walks in
his sleep so he can get his rest
and exercise at the same time.
