I thought everyone knew about it because its such an un-usual thing to happen in Bingham , Its going to be one of the best and most delightful lawn parties ever given. Twill be very mo-dern too. Big, beautifully color-ed, modernistic flowers every- - where, enormous, oddly designed palm trees, delicate tropical vines clinging to trellises and pillars, K a fish pond with real, live gold fish swimming leisurely around among colored pebbles and water plants to the strains ofa dreamy waltz or a lively fox trot, played by NeU Williams and his Peppy Seven, just what you love to s dnce, to, and, if you tire of danc ing, you may tuck yourself away in some dim, flowery nook. And sayj they're going to serve free lunch; and you'll certainly miss something you've waiUed a life-time for if you don't come. What ,; you say you haven't been invited! But you are, everyone is, and the more the merrier. So come one, come all to the Bingham High School Junior - Prom. March 28th, 1930, One dollar per couple.

In the melee that followed, sev eral Jap patrons of the place ga thered around ,"VVebb and while one of them back of him made a noise to attract his attention an-other Jap is said to have knocked him down. .Then they all pounc-ed upon him and took his gun from him. When Webb was dis-armed, things began to happen. A rope was procured and the Japs proceeded to . bind Webb to a large "post in the middle of the room. When his feet and hands were bound fast to the post, they pounded, beat and cut him until he was barely recognizable. Webb's face, head, hands and bodv were cut as if with a blunt instrument, presumably with his gun. They also poured hot boil-ing water over him so he relates .and pounded him uniiil he was senseless . The sheriff's office was then called and John Knut-so- n with chief of police Sorensen went to the camp and removed Webb first to the hospital, for medical treatment and then to jaiU ...vv.: V SwaKhed in bandages, at the city jail, Webb related his ex-perience and how he had wished they had killed him rather than to have stood the torture to which he was submitted. Webb who claims to be 20 has a wife here. He has had trouble before according o reports, and is now on parol from the State Prison. i SHOT DOWN IN STREET FIGHT Tom Ferena Italan pool hall pro-priet-of Highland Boy was shot down near his home on Tuesday night about 1:30 p. m. His alleg-ed assailant, Aurelio Rodriguez, Mexican, escaped into the hills and at this writing had not been apprehended. Ferena is lying in the hospital with a 25 calibre bul let in his body.

Deputy Sheriff and police of firers are searching the surroundings for Rodriguea and it is believed he is hiding in the vacinity of the shooting. In pursuing Rodriguez, officer Timothy, deputy sheriff, followed him up a steep trail. Here the of ficer was confronted by Mrs. Rod riguez who was covering him witih a revolver. Meantime Rod-riguez had stepped aside and cov ered the officer , from the rear with a rifle. When the mexican demanded to know .what the sheriff wanted, Timothy realizing bis peril replied, he didn't want a thing an dat the same time he jumped from the ledge. The offi cer and fugitive played hide and seek around the buildings .and cribbing walls for some time when in darkness, Rodriguez man aged to hide. Timothy then call ed for and a num be rof deputies were dispatched from Salt Lake City to continue the search. When these officers arrived, demands were made tb those inside the house to come out and when the officers received no response, shots were fird into the building and the occupants then opened the door and came out, but Rodriguez was not among jlhem. His wife and brother came from the house and were taken into custody for questioning. The of the fugitive was found about place was searched but no trace the house.

Next day the drys began the Intro-duction of testimony with the first of some fifty witnesses from all parts of the country and from all walks of life. Tliey led oft with Samuel Orowther, a writer who has been gathering Infor-mation on the" liquor question for a magazine; Edward Keating, former . congressman from Colorado ; Dr. Dan-iel A. Poling, president of the World's Christian Endeavor union, and Henry M. Johnson, Louisville lawyer. Mr. Crowlher said he had asked Thomas A. Edison and Henry Ford to attend the hearing but they were un-able to do so. However, both sent tele- - grams warmly endorsing prohibition and the Eighteenth amendment It Is noteworthy that so far most of the drys emphasize especially the NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS President Hoover't First Year Is Both Praised . , and Attacked. ; :" By EDWARD W. PICKARD , WHETHER Herbert Hoover's first President is to be con-sidered successful depends largely on flie political bias and economic convic-tions of the one who does the consid-ering. The varying views on the mat-ter were expressed In the senate by Senator Simeon D. Fesa of Ohio, speaking for the administration party, and Senator Pat Harrison of Missis-sippi, speaking for the opposttloa , Senator Fess especially praised the President's efforts to combat business depression, saying: "I regard the handling of the economic forces that were playing toward disaster by the President as the most outstanding ac-complishment in the' history .of tire government of which . I have any knowledge on economic lines." He said he was not entirely sure that It was possible to avoid the cycles In business In which a high business level Is followed by a depression. "If It can be done," continued the Ohio sen-ator, "we have the leadership In the White House that will do it; for the President has been working on the economic benefits the country has de-rived from prohibition, while most of the wets dwell particularly on the al-leged break down of morals resulting from It. at ail to the surprise of those ' NOT with the grain trade, conditions In the grain market became such that the federal farm board found It neccssnry to modify its activities In bolstering up wheat prices through the Grain Stabilization corporation and the Farmers' National Grain corpora-"tlo- '' f.i. ''.'") ; The change In policy, as announced ' by Chairman Alexander Legge of the problem eight years.' In dealing with other features of the administration record during the year Senator Fess discussed farm relief, the tariff, the naval armament confer-ence, 'other International questions, and prohibition. Senator Harrison said he wished to congratulate Senator Fess "on bis audacity and nerve in speaking ex-planations of the mlsachievements of the administration during the ' last year." "If the failure to solve big problems is an achievement, then this admin-istration for the last year is a suc-cess," said Senator Harrison. "If dis-gusting the farmers of the land Is an achievement, then this administration Is a success. If dissatisfying labor Is an achievement, then this administra-tion Is a success. If indecision upon the part of a President is an achieve-ment, then President Hoover's first year Is a great success," UNEMPLOYMENT Is of course one concerns, of the government and furnishes ammuni-tion for the opponents of the adminis-tration. , Secretary of Labor James 3. Davls following a cabinet meeting at which the Industrial' situation was discussed, asserted that as a result of the Presi-dent's activities unemployment has been held to less than one-ha- lf that of previous financial crashes. Other ad-ministration leaders expressed confi-dence hat unemployment would be materially relieved within the next farm board, consists in abandonment of the arbitrary loan price basis - tabllshed by the board last fall. No more grain will be bought on that basis," Mr. Legge Said, though loans wUl be madi to on the present crop until July 1. Prices for wheat during the week were unsettled and generally lower. - Later Mr. Legge was quoted as de-claring that a real embargo against shipping wheat from farms to termi-nal markets will be put Into effect unless farmers hold their stocks until storage facilities become available. He said the board Is endtvoring to avoid such drastic measures during the present grain emergency, but that ..... If railroads are nimble to unload cars of grain .at terminals nil embargo would become imperative. ' Officials of twenty-fiv- e grain and other farm commodity exchanges held a secret meeting In Chicago and gave out the word that so far as they were concerned .the verbal warfare with the farm board was ended. . ?We have decided to shut up and gef back to business as best we can under the situation, despite what poli-ticians jRnd governmental spokesmen may say or do," said one of the who attended the conference. The general opinion of the meeting was reported to' be that the grain trade was satisfied wltlvthe modified ' policy announced by the federal farm board, withdrawing the ' flsed prices for wheat. being paid to only. few. weeks through the federal agen-cies called Into action by tho Presi-dent . . Senator Wagner of New lork, Dem-ocrat, hns introduced a bill for stabili-sation of Industry by construction of public works and the prevention of un-employment In periods of business de-pression, and appropriating $150,000,. 000 for these purposes. Secretary Davis opposes the measure, holding It is unnecessary and provides methods too cumbersome for its use.. OPPONENTS of our prohibition their case before the house Judiciary committee on Tuesday wltn the statements of a number of witnesses, the best known of whom were BrecUenridge Long, former as-sistant secretary of state, and Dr. Stewart Paton, psychiatrist of Johns Hopkins. Three women also took the stand, Mrs. Robert W. Lovett of Bos-ton, Sirs. Cortlandt Nicoll of New York and Mrs. Carroll Miller of Pittsburgh. Mrs. Lovett sounded the keynote of the testimony of all three with a dec-laration that the wom-en are seeking the same objectives as the dry women, namely, protection of children, a decrease in crime, and abolition of the commercialized liquor traffic. ?' ,4 "But what have we today J she de-manded. ' Drunken children, crime on SECRETARY OF STATE STIMSON sprung surprise on with a statement Jn London that the United States Is willing to reduce Its naval armament by more than 200,000 tons, if the fleets of the other naval powers are reduced accordingly. He said this In reply to reports that the naval conference was likely to result In an Increase instead of a reduction in the tonnage of the navies of the world, and said his plan seemed to be acceptable to America and Great Brit-ain. , Frnnce was still holding up the pro-ceedings of the conference although Premier Tardlon obtained a good ma-jority in the chamber of deptities. The French continue to demand a tonnage v of at least 700,000 tons. If they are given this, Italy demands the same total But Great Britain's fixed pol-icy is to have r navy as targe as those of any two continental powers, and to have 1,400,000 tons shw must add 200,000 tons to the figure on which the agreement with the United States Is bssed. That in a nutshell is the situation, thoofh there are many com- - . " plleating side features.

A large number of members of Bingham were in attendance. Mayor Bowman acted as toast-mast-and a very excellent pro-gram was carried out. Gov. Geo. H. Dern was the guest ot honor and " principal speaker' of the ev-ening. A fine musical program with many novelty features were introduced. Interpretive dancing by Miss Charlotte McMillan was a feature of the program. Mixed boxing and wrestling matches, a battle royal, a fishing contest and numberless other exhibitions were given.

It is amusing, at least to we av erage mortals, to contemplate how public works are to be speed (ed up to relieve unimployment, along with the Government policy f greater economy in public ex-penditures. When three and one half million breadwinners are out of employment it seems a poor time for the inauguration of ec-onomies in national, state and municipal affairs. Mrs. Will Myers and Mrs. Eu gene Morriss were hostesses to the Ladies Civic Club at the home of Mr. Myers Thursday evening of last week. Miss Nona Nerdin !gave two readings which were well received.

The new electrical arrangment worked perfectly and no hitch or delay of any kind was experienced. ( The enterprise displayed by Messrs. Brisk and Chester, opera-tors of the show in this large im-provement at a cost of approxi-mately $15,000., is receiving the commendation and support of the people of Bingham Canyon. Only the very best shows pro-duced will be shown here and the patrons may be assured that not only the plays, but also the pres-entation will be equal to any to be found in the larger cities. MINE TAXATION IN UTAH. 1 The eyes of the West haye been eentered on Utah, where mine tax ation which is vital to Khe pro-- gress of the mining industry,, has been extensively debated. Utah mines are assessed a tax which is arrived at by multiply-- i ' ing the net annual proceeds by three. The mining industry con-tends hat, if this method is go-ing to be used, the multiple should be fixed in the constitu-tion. Without definite fixation, there are two variablec in the tax paid by mines the assessed valu ation and She rate; whereas on er classes of property there is but one variable the rate. They claim, and demonstrate V-fr,.- :- -ith figures, that three times the oet annual proceeds plus assessed valuation of machinery and im-provements, represents almost one hundred per cent valuation of mining properties for taxation I purposes. GEMMELL SHOW MARCH 15th There will be another big ath-eti- c show for the fans of the R. C. Gemmell club next Saturday jevening.

I FORWARD MOVE- - MENT IN FOOD PRO-DUCTION AND I DISTRIBUTION J Three prominent wholesale pack ing and food distributing plants in New England have recently merged. This is in line with the . consolidation of food products in order to cut down overhead and distributing v costs end provide consumers with cheaper and better food. The same movement has taken place in the production of auto-mobiles, clothes, .banking, Utih-- j ties, newspapers and other lines of business. High hopes are held for flie success of mass produc- - . tion and ditribution to benefit consumers. An outgrowth of this better food service idea has been the de vclopjnent of a process which it is . contemplated will in the near fu- - ' ture open up an entirely new mei I thod of food distribution. Perish able foods will be frozen at a temperature of 50 degrees below zero, so quickly that cell-desro-ing ice crystals will have no time to form, thus retaining the orin-iu- al freshness of the food. Itl is! claimed that berries, fish and vegetables can be transported in this form across the continent in ' ' perfect condition as soon as dis tributing facilities are provded.
