No better proof of this statement can be had than the expansion of the Columbia Steel operations m Utah. The expansion program will mean the . expenditure of $135,000,-00-0 for blast furnaces at Geneva, about IB miles north of the com-pany's present plant at Provo, and the employment of thousands of additional men. To supply this huge plant, which will make Utah a western Pittsburg as a steel center, it will be neces-sary for the company to greatly expand its iron mining operations In southern Utah and at Its coal mines at Columbia Utah. In order to more clearly visualize the importance of this project to the state, the new Geneva piaD, alone will consume more coal thai is now produced in the state nt Utah.

FoVTlbwiM A few j cars ago Grand Rapids, Mich., had a slum that was called Hell's Half Acre, a bleak, poverty-stricke- n region from tvhich came most of the city's juvenile crime: There were in this place 450 boys and girls and from them the average ar-e- st forcach year were 135. Churches tried.extra police tried, citizens tried, all failed. One day a man got an idea, he said, "You can't prevent crime with either hymn-singin- g or a cop's night stick. Keep 'em busy, so busy they don't have time for devilment." A little fund wasraised. Joe Louis rcfer-ree- d a fight for them and quite a sum was rai?ed. They built a real club house, and through that club house the police, kindly and decently, attacked crime in its own dirty back yard The next year instead of 135 arrests there was but one. And shortly there was none. Think of it a club house of their own where they could play and whoop, laugh and jump and swim and run and so on, and with decent treatment they were remade. It cost about $26 per boy to make a good one out of a bad one. Is it worth that much? Verily yes. A prominent minister says, "The Master's emphasis upoh the worth of an individual reprobates the exploitation of the many for the benefit of the few." How true. The nation has been paying all to much attention to profit and making them of more concern than the well bein of the people. In the first World War men were drafted and wealht was not. Pro-perty values were placed higher than human values. Vice-preside- nt Wallace says, "I have never seen among the peasant of Europe poverty so abject as that winch exists in the great in the great cotton states from Arkansas to the East Coast." Why not adopt a decent, living and saving system which they have known was possible, which would unburden them from the bondage and degradation in which they suffer. The Cooparative Plan of having all material things in com mon for the use and benefit of all was not made by man. Four times the Author has laid it in the lap of humanity but they would not keep it And therefore the world is sinking in the mire of ain and poverty and war. All other systems are failing Let's give the devil his dues, by all means. The brewers and hard liquormanufacturerspay annually to the government in hidden taxes approximately two billion dollars which, of course is passed on to the people. Will some of our readers find out what the total state and national income from liquor amounts to for a single year, and then write down all the things the people get for these billions? A hint to C. V. H Citizens of America. Don't let the Chambers of Com-merce induce you to give away your money for things to be delivered after the war. Anything you pay in this manner you will lose. And this you may depend upon.' It is bad enough to be "forced" to stock up on furs and what not, but don't let them ool you to order things to come to you after Armageddon. If you have any money to lay away Buy your country's War Bonds and Stamps The famous Atlantic Charter is a good one, and we trust, will result in much good. But there is a Charter that super-cedes it and will, in time be a saving and redeeming power for humanity. The Charter of which we speak has been tried at least three times, to our knowledge, in the world's history And the three times, that it has been tried are the onl times that the humanity enjoying it has reached mortal perfection. It is a Cooperative Order where all things are held in common It was adoptod and lived in the days of Enoch and so perfect-te- d his people that they were too good for this earth. For 200 year, in Book of Mormon times it was the law among the people and they enjoyed such a high and prosperous state of life as is hardly believable today. Jesus admonished his followers to live this law and it was instituted by the apostles with sin. ilar ro ults to the above. But for living thisShigher economic law in a pagan world tbey were soon exterminated. Today most men keep a safe distance from this God-give- n law and will be drawn to it only by dire necessity.

History of the Park City Con-solidated Mines company which during the past 13 years has been one of Utah's major ore producers, produces startling proof that de-velopment of the state's resources must be encouraged or the mining industry will decline. Discovering ore in 192S, the Park City Consolidated mined up to 1940 $3,7S8,255.61 worth of ore. During j this period labor received $2,021,-- j 727.86 of this for wages, compensa-- j tion, insurance, social security and unemployment taxes, and 51,270.-- j 000.00 was spent for supplies. Stockholders who made the venture possible have received nothing. ' In recent years, the Park City Consolidated has scowered the west in search of another prospect to develop. Its engineers examined many properties In Utah and other western states. Finally a lead property was located in Missouri, which it was believed would merit development. The company ap-plied and has received a loan from the Reconstruction Finance Cor-poration to develop the lead prop-erty. Utah has long been known as one of the leading mining states, but now we bow to Missouri. Is Utah losing its attractiveness as a state in which to prospect, or is it a question of exhausting the ore reserves? Apparently not enough consid-eration is being given to prospect-ing, or is it true that the reward when and if ore is found, is not sufficient to warrant the gamble that is always present in mining. Utah is confronted with a problem and its solution is earnestly sought by all of its citizens.
