A. Rich, Acting State Director says. It is simply a question of how each individual best can serve his country, whether it be in military or civilian capacity, he pointed out. Wyoming Official Seeks Details Of Water Program The apparent "success" of cooperative coop-erative investigations between the state engineer and WPA in Utah's underground water and small reservoir reser-voir program, Saturday brought a visitor to the office of State Engineer Engi-neer T. H. Humpherys. Rex J. Reed of Greenriver, Wyo ming, engineer in charge of Green river investigations in Colorado and Wyoming for the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation, sought details of the cooperative program Mr. Reed also met with E. B. Deb-ler Deb-ler of Denver, Colorado, hydraulic engineer for the bureau, and other bureau officials while in Salt Lake City. He left for Wyoming Satur day night. "Since Utah has been very successful success-ful in carrying out these investigations investiga-tions with the federal agency, we in Wyoming are interested in knowing how it is done," he said.

Most of these questions Indicate considerable misunderstanding misunderstand-ing of the, principle of occupational deferment. Some local "government officials have raised the question of group exemptions for local public employees. Such groups exemptions, exemp-tions, of course, are prohibited by law. "This - is covered clearly by the provisions of the Selective Training and Service Act and Regulations. These provide that a local board may defer any man who is found to be necessary in his Job where the Job is in an activity that Is productive or useful and contributes to the well-being of the community or the Nation. Furthermore, it would be kept in mind that there is little probability that so many individuals would be selected at any one time from any one enterprise or activity as to cripple It." Pointing out that local boards must pass on individual cases of occupational oc-cupational deferment of registrants, Major Rich says: "The same stand ards apply to a person in public service as to those in private employment. em-ployment. It is clearly the inten tion of the Congress and of the President that Selective Service be administered in such a way as to cause the least possible disruption of the normal economy. However, each case must be determined as an individual in-dividual matter and on its own merits." SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION MEETING NEXT SUNDAY transmountain diversion into the Bear river, he stated.

Women make fewer grammatical mistakes than men. Bad English is spoken more commonly in the East than in the West The author of these statements state-ments is Edwin Maxwell, veteran stage actor and director and foremost fore-most Hollywood dialogue director. Maxwell made these observations after interviewing more than 1,000 players for a recent picture, during which chore he made copious notes, rounding out material for a forthcoming forth-coming book. "Blondes blonde women, especially are more slovenly sloven-ly in their speech than brunettes because they are conscious of their eye appeal and therefore expect a listener, particularly a male listener, listen-er, to overlook their bad grammar because of the ameliorating effect their appearance has on the listener," listen-er," he says.
