A., urged enactment of pensions and tenure laws, minimum salaries, remdval of politics from the office of superintendent of public instruction and steps to equalize salary schedules. The tax Teform resolution was reported by Joseph B. Driggs. Salt Lake City, chairman of the legislative committee, who declared that the "tangible property tax must be relieved, but only as other sour ces assume their share of the burden". The resolution recommended that "the next legislature take immediate steps to devise ways and means of having all forms of wealth bear their Just share of the tax burden," and expressed the belief that "Utah should follow the general trend in tax reform by seeking sources other than tangible property. It also urged that "every practical effort be made to end the possibility of escaping just taxation on tangible property" and that modification of the tangible property levies would be favored "only as these other sources are made to yield adequate revenue to meet the current needs." "Since the days of feudalism, the rulers have looked around for something to tax,' Mr. Driggs said in explaining the resolution. "We are living in a changing civilization and taxes should be paid by those who are able to pay. I predict the day when there will be no tangible tax laws. The proposal for removing the office of state superintendent of public intsruction out of politics was adopted, only after a considerable debate on whether a specific plan should be advanced pending moves to amend the state constitution. As adopted, the proposal called for the following program: 1. Amendment of the constitution to provide for election of a state board of education, consisting of seven to nine lay members, with no members who will have the autohrity to select the superintendent. 2. Election of the state school board members at the same time school district boards are chosen, but not during the general November elections. 3. To Insure continuity of policy, provision for retirement of one board member every year or two. 4. A "requirement that none but a professional educator should be eligible for the office of superintendent. 5. Insuring a long enough term for the superintendent to make possible consistent development of administration policies.

Point out the increased importance of strengthening character in times (Continued on Page Eight) com-mpni- ty AfUr having been stationed behind Mount Nebo for three months, the members of Camp Nebo left the early part of the week for Veyo Utah, where the winter quarters will be located. This camp was ccmposed of world war veterans, mostly from Utah. During their three month stay in Camp Nebo, the men have a lot of neded improvements in the area, which comprises the Salt Creek canyon and Pay-so- n Canyon sections. The camp was under the command of Captain D. L. Harford, with Lieutenant Weatherman as medical officer. Richard Greenland has ben camp superintendent and J. M. Herbert as project superintendent. Projects undertaken during the summer have been varied and those completed will be very beneficial to the area, and to those who enjoy the area from a recreational standpoint. One of the outstanding pieces of Vrk accomplished by the camp was the completion of the Mount Nebo Scenic lop road, which connects Salt Cerk Canyon and Payson canyon with a wonderful scenic road. Erosion control was commenced in the area, with 500 acres being improved and ditched, which will prevent the runoff and will help materially in getting that area into vegetation. Five hundred acres of forest land have ben seeded, whivch is within areas fenced, and will be very beneficial for experimental purposes. Two water systems have been installed during the summer, one at teh Payson Recreational area, and one behind Nebo. At Payson the C C C workers installed a 6000 gal- ion water tank and 8,600 feet of Behind Mount Nebo, a piping. 5000 gallon water tank was installed at Camp Dadandson and about 6000 feet of pipe was laid, giving that area an excellent water system. Two ranger stations have been erected: two garages have been built; five miles of telephone line was constructed: 2 comfort stations were erected: three miles of range fence built in the Nebo area; two miles of cattle train; 180 recreational facilities erected; two amphitheatres completed and many other improvements made for the convenience of the people who visit that area for recreation. The camp officials report that "much of the success in accomDlish- ing this vast list of improvements lies in the splendid cooperation of of the officials of Juab County, of the city of Nephi and of th city oi rayson A number of people of Nephi have tnorougniy enjoyed the acouain tance and association of the mem bers of the Nebo camp and are hopeful of getting this fine group of men DacK to Camp Nebo next year, Large Membership Necessary To Secure The Annual Encampment An extensive membership campaign is now being planned to get a larger membership in the local post of the Sons and Daughters vet-or Utah Pioneers and Indian War erans, according to Dr. P. L. Jones captain of the unit. If Nephl is to secure the annual encampment for 1935. we must hav a large and aggressive membership, says Dr. Jones, and this membership must be secured before January, in order to prove to the stat officers of the association that we are one hundred per cent behind the organization, and have the support to stage a successful encampment. It Is the plan of Dr. Jones to havte a big banquet In January and entertain all members of the local organization and in addition to them, invite the state officials here and show them that Nephl has enough enthusiasm and leadership to put over a real celebration' During the short time that the membership committee was working during August, they secured a number of members for the association, but there should be at least two hundred and fifty members in the Nephi post and there is no doubt that everybody will respond to the call for new members. Dr. Jones and the other officers of the post are quite confident that the people here will give their sup-pand providing that the annual encampment can be secured, the Nephites will respond in makinsr it one of the best ever held In Utah. Nephi is situated in such a cen tral point that thousands of people would come here for a celebration, if one was put on that was outstanding enough to attract attention. or REPORT ORDERED Oil UTAH VATER RESOURCE SETUP Governor Blood Calls For A Complete Survey of All Water Resources SALT LAKE CITY Compilation of all available data into a comprehensive and complete report on Utah water resources with detailed relationship of the land to be serxed was ordered Wednesday by Governor Henry H.
