Madson, Fish and Game Commissioner, about the first thing I thought Charles M. Teague He often comes up with some jewels. Like for instance this statement he made recently: "It does not make sence to me rice to put cheese, boll weevils, cornflakcrispies, chewing tobacco, es, shredded wheat biscuits, boiled peanuts, golf courses, fish ponds, bed sheets and birth control pills all in the same farm subsidy bill costing taxpayers $4 billion a year." . (Calif.-R)- No doubt the tourist who comes to our county would like to visit our bird refuge on the mouth of the great Bear river, This is how .the great bird refuge was started. I was the game warden, appointed about the 1930 or 31, also appointed deputy by our Sheriff Jack Zundel 'to assist him when called. About the first thing I thought of when first appoint-ewarden was to try and find a way to get our many duck hunters down to the lakes and tulles known as Duck-villBy this time there were about three duck clubs built in the area. The caretakers of these clubs tried 'to keep all hunters from shooting by bluffing them and telling them that they owned most of the shooting grounds. Myself being one who likes to hunt had in the single sentence dramatizes a fact - that the farm program is a hodge-podgand an economic monstrosity. It has been responsible for surplus on an almost unimaginable scale and waste whose cost can only be guessed at. This -- e It is said that for every woman who yearns for that schoolgirl complexion, there is a man who longs for that schoolboy digestion. We often hear complaints the alleged "high profits of retailing." And, on occasion, it is argued that the solution lies in nonprofit cooperative stores owned by ut ferry boat to take the hunters cars across the Bear river. This worked be- gin to look bad down at Duck- ville. The Bear river got very low and it was about all taken out for irrigation. Commissioner Madson came down and we looked things over. He asked me if thought there was anything we could do. 1 told him the only thing that could be done would be to ask the federal government for money and build a dyke the hunting area and one or two cross dykes or perhaps more to make lakes. He said he had never thought of that and that he and Senator Fipps of Nevada were great friends and that he would call him as soon as he got back to the office in the capitol in Salt Lake City. Ez Sacked and I were repairing the ferry boat one day when a friend drove up and handed me a telegram telling me to be ready the next morning to go with two surveyors, Mr. Winser of Logan and Mr. Goldman of Washington, D.C. Senator Fipps had made arrangements for three hundred thousand dollars to build dykes. I took them down to the Duckville grounds and we decided where the dykes should be built. I was with them fourteen days driving stakes for them, after which I left for I had other work to take care of, so I got my son A. V. Hull to help finish the job after large gates had been put in the river near the Provo duck club with many spillways on the dykes. After the job was completed, the lakes soon filled with water. A man by the name of Mushback wa3 sent from the east to be manager of the bird refuge. My son, A. V. Hull, was made his assistant and he lived at the bird refuge the first year. During the second year Mush-- ' back was called back east and he was replaced by Van Wilson of Logan, ft was the first bird refuge started in the United States. Ezra Taft Benson told my nephew that my name was recorded in Washington, D.C., as the first man to start a Bird refuge in the United States. The Fish and Game now has about 200 bird refuges. After the refuge was finished. I became interested tn the area known then as Motleys Stocking ridge and I has since become the Public 'Shooting Grounds. could see if we could biuld dykes and ten thees knolls together we could moke about three or four good sized IbIlbs I cook the matter up with D. H. Madson, our game commissioner of Utah. He could not quite see the point the first year but I would take him out to the area every Uime he would come up to Brigham for a goose 1 shoot. He 'finally fell for the dyking to toe done so 1 hired imany teams and scrapers from up at Penrose and Thatcher to start the dykes and I had five single men from Brigham to work with shovels and to build many spillways in the dykes. We worked off and on for about three summers and finally had three fine lakes, one of which is named Hull lake. The state had sent me a surveyor named Crocker to survey all land th3t hadnt been surveyed I did the poling for him one summer. We now have 13,000 acres for all hunters to shoot on. The first day we opened shading I had to stay at the gate and register all who entered that morning and took the names of 410. I was ordered to build a cabin 12 by 20 feet. It is still there for huniters if they wish to stay all night. I myself have had to retire and am living at the Godfrey Rest Home, which is a wonderful place for came ta visit old men and ladies. We ask all who-caus at any time. S. Hull their customers. In light of that, some facts made public by the First National City Bank of New York are illuminating. They show what happens, economically speaking, when you buy $100 worth of goods from one of the large retailors. Here's the breakdown: $90.80 goes for merchandise, payrolls and employee benefits; $2 is spent for rent; depreciation takes $1.10; interest on borrowed money accounts for 40 cents; income taxes take $2 and other taxes $1.40. That leaves a profit of $2.30. Supports Taxpayer Group Editor: Taxation is the revenue that supports government activities. Compulsory payments are made to the public treasurer or Internal Revenue in accordance to existing laws. A person used to be entitled to receive a just benefit or service In return far such payment. Taxpayers are awakened to prelexing questions regarding the wisdom and necessity of prevailing practices, also to the consequences of an ever changing society. Intricate and difficult problems arise Irequently when those elected to public offices do not execute iheir duties but delegate them to various aides, committees or groups. This weakens the bulwork of government operations and efficiency and increases taxes to heights unknown. Governments willingness to add taxation to give aide to either chose who cant or wont take care of themselves 4$ becoming Involved in complexities of life and becoming dependent on government help which rapidly expands and Increases public authority and taxation. Attempts to protect taxpayers by establishing various forms of limitation on taxation and public Indeptedness have been made. Past experiences have shown legally created limitations seldom solve a problem but may even create or breed them. Farmers, like most taxpayers, have organized and paid dues to various groups co act on Increasing problems only to be sucked into the quick? and of circumstances tester than the organizations and unification could pull them out.
