In 1897 the United States had 1C7 special police officers on the payroll. In 1921 there were 34,000 'employes subject to the same classification, and now congress is asked te authorize an increase to 47,000. Is it any wonder that expenses ' soar?

It 'was sound reasoning. Prohibition did much to change the viewpoint and we find a vast army of men paid to enforce the Volstead act. Naturally they duplicate the work of the police officers in the pay of the counties and the states, doing the work which might be a regular order of business in the enforcement of lawr , a That, however, is but one of the extravagances for which the federal govmment is responsible. In a feeble and wasteful effort to establish a merchant marine, the government has spent in excess of four billions of dollars, or more than $40 for every man, woman and child in the United States. This money must be paid by the people because the U, S. merchant marine never has and never will, under present prospects, pay its way. The costs are made impressive when we understand that the venture cost the people of Utah $18,000,000. Out of this venture we have got nothing. I constructed of which are serviceable. The rest of them are lying around in various docks going to rot. They cannot be used in the service and so are but a monument to Americas stupidity. Government operation of the serviceable boats has Inefficient and wasteful. Under this operation it required proved T forty-fivdays for a boat to make the trip from Chesapeake bay to the West Indies and return. Under private operation, with the same boats, the trip is made in twenty-eigdays. The reason for this is that the red tape of the government is so inextricably interwoven with the shipping business that efficiency is impossible. A boat in need of repairs must wait for a $100 item to : tnif eV though various $n sundry departments vand j, branches bcfarelljey can be authorized. Meanwhile the crew is idle with . the expenses of idleness far outdistancing the costs of repairs. In view of these facts. Uncle Sam shouldwash his hands of the (hipping business completely and decline to meddle with private operation which conducts' itself efficiently. It should refrain from interference calculated to increase the overhead oi private operation. Salt Lake Telegram. Monday, May 29, 1922. QURN A L, JCWANCITY t CACHE COUNTY.

"a in the Literary OUR attention is being attracted by picture labeled "The Siren Voice of the City, in which young farmer is sitting down on his plow oat hi the field, dream fcj of the great city, which he sees in his mind .with . towering baiktings, smoke from many chimneys, bright lights, theaters and a good time generally, with money to spend and genial com ' panions. Ho 5 here, young Farmer, If you have any such pipe dreams as that in your mind, get them out as soon as possible, for there is nothing in it for you, and for mighty few others. In fact, there is nothing in it for more, than one out of a thousand who listen to that siren call. If y9u havg a few acres - of your own, a team of horses and a plow, a house to live in - and some tools to harvest such crop as you raise, be it large or email, you are better off than the city dweller. Probably you, don't know or dont realize, but if bo It is because you do not know the facta. We do know. aml are telling yoa somethlng you' can absolutely depend upon. Only one in a million in the cities make those great fortunes you read about. The vast majority of them live ' from har.d to mouth from one years end to another, and if they should die today have not enough money to pay funeral expenses. No farmef ever sleeps out of doors when nights are cold because he has no home or bed, but millions do in the cities. No farmer , ever goes hungry for the want of a bite to eat, but millions do in the cities all over ffhe world. There are few criminals among the farmers they are nearly all In the cities. The jails, penitentiaries and insane asylums are recruited from the cities never from, the farms. The thugs, thieves,- - bandits, sharks, traitors, scoundrels, bootleggers, prostitutes, gamblers, aU are city bred nor.e of them are found orrthefarms. There is nothing in the bright lights, absolutely nothing but heartache, sin, despondency, suicide and crime. There are ' no white lights on the farm, to be sure, but hell is lit up with them. Stay on your farm, young man, and daily and nightly thank Almighty God that you are permitted to do so. God lives out in k fresh air the devil lives in the filth and flats of the city.1 Now, look Two Hollywood movie stars have just had their marriage arrived, both testifying that the marriage was the result of a pzrty'' tr.d neither knew what they, were doing and had . no reccl!;: n of getting married until they woke up several days after in a Santa Barbara hotel.
