UTAH their organized effort, will get the facts, will inform themselves on the details of public affairs and then, in a determined, intelligent way, give the public officials the benefit of this study and investigation. It is as absurd as it is unsound for any individual or group to appear before public officials and make demands for horizontal cujs and say: We demand a reduction of 25 per cent or 50 per cent from last year budget. What public officials ant to know is how and where to make the cuts. That information must come from the taxpayers. In 1930, the ad valorem taxes charged for the upkeep of all counties amounted to $4,437,969.00; and for cities and towns, $3,990,000.00. This did not include fees, licenses and special taxes. If private institutions, by sharpening their wits, by analyzing all their activities, can reduce their expenditures from 25 per cent to 33 Vz per cent, there it no reason why the business of our city and county governments cannot be reduced to the same extent.

If the taxpayers, in this manner, will get the whole picture of the road construction work in the county, they will then be able to make a definite recommendation to the county commission on how much should be budgeted for the coming year. The same kind of investigation should then be made of all other departments until all proposed activities and all expenditures are thoroughly investigated, weighed and determined. Nothing should be taken for granted. The old, easy, loose method of matching last years expenditures without any consideration of details should be frowned upon and resisted by the taxpayers. A popular method employed by many public officials in order to appease the taxpayers and make it appear that a spirit of economy is being exercised, is to say that last year we spent $100,000 for a certain purpose; now we are going to reduce it to $90,000. But an investigation may show that the whole program is padded and inflated; that there are activities and undertakings within the department, as unnecessary as they are extravagant. Probably a thorough study of the department needs would show conclusively that $49,000 or $50,000 would be all that should be spent. On one occasion the organized taxpayers of Salt Lake city, armed with facts and figures, went before the city commission. At that time the city commissioners were unaccustomed to have the taxpayers make formal demands for retrenchment, and they sort of resented this unusual approach, hinting that they (the city commissioners) were quite able to take care of the affairs of government. But it just happened that the group of taxpayers were not so easily bowed out of court. Before appearing before the city commissioners they had analyzed the whole city program and were able to justify every proposal for reduction. The net result was a slash of $726,060. This same process can be repeated in every city and county in this state if only the taxpayers will maintain' "i 3 KE rd more Unfits bit using tin Cache American as Your Advertising Medium j. 33 pike-lik- e twelye-year-ol- d one-sixt- A NEW STORY TO APPEAR IN THE PAY THE Per i. 4-- H f t MEN IN HER LIFE Watch For It And Read It--Subscribe Now n |
