In spite of the fact that we have averaged over $1000 000 a year charity we are proud to know our stockholders, of which there are many, were of the unanimous opinion that we should continue to pay our taxes and thus share our portion of the heavy burden the poor people are carrying. The hospital and its equipment ls the very latest, there Is none' more modem or more up to date, and It ls our aim to keep It thus. We have been a blessing to the community, have a very substan. tial payroll, our prices compared with service rendered are as cheap and In most cases much cheaper than can be had elsewhere. Our aim Is to cooperate with the com munity and all civic organizations and make it what It really should be, a real health center, a place where physical ailments can be cured and health Instructions given so that all can call us blessed. MARTIN POND 'Demand. That County Officials Desist Penalizing the Taxpayers for Their Own Personal Wants And Begin Bringing to the Front the Acid Test of Human Unselfishness The U. S. Government spent during the last two years 82.000,000,000 above its income. The State of Utah spent $2,000,000 during the last s of thi3 two years over and above its income. amount spent in Utah w ent to pay salaries.

In my article of February 10, I made it clear to all who wanted to know the truth that $1.00 today is equal to $1.50 prior to the depression. Honest men will acknowledge this. Admitting tiiis, Logan City employees taxincluding Commission, realizing the plight of the in last salaries their reduced year payers, voluntarily the total amount of $12,000, and that arrangement still prevails with one exception, the City Judge. Moreover, the salaries of the city employees taken as a whole are lower than those of the County. And let it be further stated to the credit of the City Commission, that when it becomes necessary to make change is made for the use trips to Salt Lake City no note we that every trip County autos or gas, while o( Commissioners make to the Capitol, it costs the taxpayers $18.00 for car fare in addition to hotel and meals. And further let it be said to the credit of the Mayor, when he was obliged to make a trip to California in behalf of the City Light Plant, the trip was made without; expense to Logan City. COUNTY SALARIES If the County boys were fairly paid in cents, it years when $1.00 was worth only one hundred follows they are over paid now when $1.00 is worth $1.50. Below I givie a list of the present salaries followed by figures representing the actual value and purchasing power of the dollar at the present time as compared times. with Now Worth Present Salaries Office ?195C $1300 Commissioners ' Treasurer Recorder Assessor 1700 1700 1700 2550 2550 25o0 Clerk Sheriff """V.ZZZV.VZ1 Attorney Surveyor 2550 2700 1700 1800 1000 6000 4000 District Judge 3000 4500 City Juidge Deputy Assessors have already been cut If now anyone in County employ doubts the above stated advance in his salary, let him take his cash in hand, step out and buy foods and other provisions,, clothing for men and women, furniture and household furnishings, a lot, a home, a farm, a cow, horse, or a sheep, and he will hurry back and demand that his salary be cut in two instead of being reduced EVERYONE NEEDS A GUARDIAN It is indeed unfair to an employee for the employer not to check him up occasionally that he may see himself as the employer sees him. When Commissioners: are allowed to present their expense bills with only a superficial looking over and approval by the Auditor and Attorney, as has been done during the past six years or possibly longer, you undoubtedly do those men an injustice. Take for example the matter of auto mileage with which the Commission has been penalizing the taxpayers during the past six years. The State of Utah allows their employees seven cents per mile when the employee is using his own car and furnishing his own gas. The Agricultural College allows five cents and in no case over six cents per mile, and other counties from five cents to six cents while we have been assessed ten cents per mile straight for years and years past. Now look at the figures below taken from actual expense reports. Use of car Mendon to Logan and Return 2.00 Use of car Logan to Salt Lake City & Return $18.00 Use of care to Ogden from Logan & Return .... 11.00 Use of Car Richmond to Logan & Return 2.80 Use of car Hyrum to Logan & Return 1.60 Use of car Logan to Wellsville & Return 2.00 The overcharge by the Commissioners during the past two years, the difference between seven cents and 10 cents per mile amounts to $504.00. During the past six years this difference would total $1512.00. What think you, should the above money be returned to the County? If now, you were receiving $18.00 for the use of your car and gas to Salt Lake City and return, and a salary ranging all the way from $13.00 to $19.50 per day. would you not be doing quite well, and soon be able to have money in the savings bank? 25. 25. CAN TAXES BE REDUCED? Only one small item has been mentioned would be no further cuts. And when Commissioners state that the as was done to a Committee of ten sent there by 400 realize of the taxpayers may demanding re taxpayers The taxpayers dont want us to work for necessity 1500 450 trench men t SOORetainer) (For convenience we include) 19- -..

Other matters have been brought to my office and may be heard from later, but as 90 of all taxes collected in our County is spent in the County, it naturally follows if there is to be tax reduction, it must start first with the Assessor in lowering the valuations, and then each taxing unit must cut and keep on cutting bearing in mind the condition of the farmer, the home owner, the merchant-- , who are broke and can not meet the demands hitherto made upon them. INGRATITUDE IS SIN not Might taxpayers upon whom the office holder must rely for his income, consistently look for a demonstration of gratitude for past favors. Here are men who have held County positions for two, four, six, eight, and in some instances twelve years, who never lost a day, nor worked on a Sunday or holiday, or lost their pay through days or weeks of illness, who come at 9 A. M. and turn the key promptly at 5 P. M and provided with the required help to make their labor a real pleasure from day to day, and month in and year out, sunshine or rain, and whose pay check is as sure as the rising of the sun. Obviously, if they are built like the rest of us humans, they must appreciate these advantages. These same individuals see on every side distress, bankruptcy, failure, sickness, sorrow and suffering among the very individuals that are forced to keep those County officials in plenty and comparative luxury. Words are futile in endeavoring to describe the condition of the common people of whom it is said God must have loved because he made so many. ITS ON YOUR DOORSTEP Part of the responsibility rests right on your doorstep. You are doing your part in maintaining the high, government upkeep. Let me put it another way, and say that you have not turned your hand along your own personal sacrifice in lessening the burden of those who keep you floating. Your Attorney flauntingly stated he did not want the job, but knowing at the same time while the remark was being made there was no other party man available for the place, so the Convention could do nothing else than force it on to him. WHAT IF CUT 50 ? Should he and every individual in the Court yard be not one would be missing the next morning. All cut would be there to answer the roll call and praying there . 50, nothing, you are simply offering an idle gesture not worthy of the time it takes to state it. The taxpayers merely want you to join them in the depression and to participate with them in the troubles at hand. DONT TAKE ANOTHERS JOB It is said the Commissioners have engaged no road, supervisor. They intend to do the supervising themselves, evidently using that as a reason for their failure to keep their pledges to reduce their salaries from $1000 to $750 and expenses from $300 to $200. On first thought, that may appear very well. But what about the other man who needs the work to keep his family? Should not they receive your consideration. They also must live. If you cut your salary as agreed from $1,000 to $750, and expenses from $300 to $200, you will have $1050 per annum with which to pay a Road Supervisor who will be continuously on the job, and who will know how to handle the situation far better than men not acquainted with the work. You were elected as County Commissioners and not Road Supervisors. GOVERNORS COMMITTEE OF NINE While the Governors Committee of Nine had to do almost exclusively with the State General Fund, they did at times refer to city and county needs and matters pertaining to the outside from which the greater part of the General Fund is derived. I quote the following: With r officials, we hope that regard to elective and recognizing the present emergency, they will accept voluntary temporary reductions. So come on, Gentlemen, it is up to you individually. You dont have to be united. Every man now stands upon his own moral status. Just be united with your moral self and you will know what to do. 10 FOOLISH TALK The word is out that there is talk of a 107 reduction among the County officials. Might as well keep your dimes. We can assure you this would not be satisfactory; furthermore, that it would be laughed at. Come through big, let the taxpayers know you appreciate the fact that during 1930, 31, 32, officials holding political positions were the only ones that fared well. If by another year the depression is over, no one will object to the usual salaries, but now those who pay want you to come through properly. We expect a reduction of $9,000 during a period of twelve months. So come on boys, the water is deep and cold. J. A. HENDRICKSON. n hold-ove- |
