SAUNA, UTAH, FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 1933 FIFTEENTH YEAR PROMINENT MATRON DIES AT HOME OF PARENTS Taxpayers Endorse County League Move Impressive funeral services than 100 Salina taxpayers endorsed the resolutions heartily adopted at the formation of the Sevier County Taxpayers league at Richfield Tuesday of last week, after Abe Hansen, a member of the board of directors, and Adolph Nielson, explained the merits at a special meeting held at the Second ward chapel Monday evening. Mr. Hansen, in his address, outlined the policies of the league and the plan to send a delegation to the etate legislature, praying for relief frsm the heavy tax burdens. He was followed by Mr. Nielson, who gave a brief history of his own experiences as a taxpayer, and declared that taxes were so burdensome and the returns from his farm were so small, that he would soon be figured out of the picture. Two members were added to the board of directors from Salina, Ernest Herbert and J. T. Crane being selected to represent the north end of new members the county. Thirty-fou- r were added to the league from Salina at the Monday night meeting, and unusual enthusiasm was shown, in the efforts that are to be put forth by the county league. The resolutions adopted at the organization of the Sevier County Tax, are as follows: payers leag-ue1. The raising of the income tax rates and a lowering or doing away with the exemptions; that the be allowed on income to the extent of general property tax on the property from which the income is derived, but should be allowed as to t no fncome derived from other sources. 2. That a large part of the gasoline tax be diverted to the use of the schools, with a corresponding reduction in other levies for this purpose. 3., That many of the commissions and boards and bureaus of the state be consolidated or modified so as to materially reduce the expense of government. 4. That we demand the reduction of . the present property tax by at least 50 per cent, and that failing in this result we collectively refuse to pay any tax at all until such adjustment is made, provided that taxpayers of the other counties of the state join us in this movement. 5. That this organization immediately inform the legislature and the tax commission of its stand. 6. That an organized effort be made to contact and secure the cooperation of similar organizations in other More v hy . off-se- ts off-se- counties. were college. This percentage does not include the number that were culled, sold, or eaten, but merely those that died from prolapsus, accident or from one ailment or another. Although a large percentage of this heavy mortality comes as a result of infectious bronchitis and paralysis, for which at the present time there are no satisfactory treatments, too many birds have died and others had their efficiency to produce eggs seriously reduced by the presence of coccidiosis, fowl pox, colds and roup, worm and parasite infestations which can be largely controlled with the cooperation of local veterinarians, Mr. Fricshknecht reports, Eventually Utah can expect to have all of the poultry diseases and pests that will thrive under her climatic conditions; therefore, all forces in the state should be mobilized to combat them, the pouRryman points out. The outstanding problems ahead In this state in poultry production are: Increasing the average size of flock; securing a greater egg production jer unit; improving the quality of eggs' that are marketed end checking the hen mortality, Mr. Frisch-knecadvises. ht Miss Reta Mulford was hostess at a party at her home Monday evening. Card playing was the pastime of the evening, and a dainty luncheon was served to ten guests. Bicknell This, Friday, in play that will determine champions. This year the district has been divided into two sections, Salina, Richfield, Bicknell and Monroe forming the north division, while Circleville, Escalante, Marysvale and Panguitch form the south division. All the teams comprise fast players and the outcome at the conclusion of the schedule is yet hard to determine. Coach Leslie Wright, whose boys have made very good showings in the practice games, will trek to Richfield tonight for the first league game this season. His boys have been gaining rapidly in teamwork, guarding and tossing baskets, s and they will give the a real test of supremacy. A big bunch of basketball fans will follow the Wolverines to Richfield, and with the new yelling team, high hopes are entertained for a victory. pre-seaso- Impressive funeral rites were held for Mcnte Whitbeck at noon Sunday at the Second ward chapel, when scores of friends gathered to pay the final tribute to the son of Mr. and Mrs. Zoell Whitbeck.

Edmonds, association general manager. Attendance will be augumented thi3 year by the fact that the Utah Turkey Growers association is holding its yearly conference in conjunction with the poultry group. The list of convention speakers, headed by Governor Henry H. Blood, includes poultrymen, educators, a banker and an engineer, besides officers of both the state poultry association and the Utah state farm bureau. The proposal mentioned contemplates amending the poultry associations articles of incorporation in a manner that will preclude all possibility of a small group obtaining voting control of the association to dominate policy and run affairs to suit selfish interest. The amendment would permit the issuance of one share of common stock, carrying one vote only, to each bona fide member producer, and subg stitute distribution of preferred stock for the special stock now being distributed. Like the present special stock, the preferred stoqk would be distributed to the member producers in return for the one cent on eggs made by a dozen scale-of- f the association for financing pur17-1- 8. non-votin- poses. j j At present there is no common stock. The special financing stock now outstanding would be retired during the next few years, leaving only the new common and preferred stocks. The amendment would put the poultry associations stock system in full harmony with the federal agricultural marketing act of 1929, but would in no way alter the organizations operation or effectiveness, it is explained. The new system, like the one now hi force, would not permit voting by proxy. The convention will open at 9:30 a. m. January 17, with Joseph Anderson of Lehi, president of the state poultry association, acting as chairman, The presidents annual report will be followed by Mr. Edmonds giv-- ! ing the managers report and an analysis of the 1932 financial state- ment.

Forest service in the intermountain region during 1932, according to R. II. Rutledge, regional forester, Ogden. The unemployment relief fund, as well as' the regular forest service improvement funds, were used on the twenty-fiv- e national forests to help the unemployed. In most communities there was not enough work to go around so only local men with families or dependents were hired. The forest supervisors worked in cooperation with the local community relief organizations in securing the lists of those needing work. In most cases the work was rotated, L e., the crews were changed sometimes every month, sometimes every four days, in order to help as many families as possible. While this system was not the most efficient, the men in general worked hard, often working extra time to help complete an improvement project in which the community was interested. One small community furnished a fores' supervisor with a list of 286 men in need of work, 105 of whom were in destitute circumstances. The p reject was small in this case so crews were changed every 5 days. That this work was meritorious is evidenced by the remarks of those helped. One man said: "I couldnt have paid by life insurance without this job." Ano her said: I have fruit end vegetables in the cellar and this job will buy the kids clothes for the w'nter. The benefits wore not confined to those directly employed. Groceries, building supplies and all the prerequi-rite- s of cons' ruction work had to be purchased, thus helping the mercantile institutions as well. night basketball starts with a bang, and the region eight squads are raring to go to the respective battlefields and start the 10 Monte Z.

Bishop Ludvigson and William Bailey, intimate friends of the Whitbeck family, of Sterling, and A. B. Jensen and Bishop Burr of thi3 city, were the principal speakers. Comforting words were spoken for the bereaved family by those giving talks, and the impressive musical numbers hushed the chape-- l to stillness. In the song service, Miss Mary McCallum gave a solo, and A. C. impressively gave a violin solo. The choir gave the opening hymn, Oh, My Father, and other numbers rendered by the choir were Beautiful Home, and Sometime Well Understand. Invocation was offered by Ira Rasmussen, and the benediction was pronounced by E. W. Crane.
