Emphatic testimony that Utah's mining industry faces the future with the problem of deep expensive development can be had from the experiences of the National Tunnel & Mines company, which is now entering a period of large scale production at its properties in the Bingham district. After nearly four years of de-velopment and the expenditure of nearly $1,500,000 the mine is just now beginning to yield ores from great depth. Years ago the upper levels of the National Tunnel, which is a consolidation of Utah Apex and Utah Delaware prop-erties, was virtually worked out. Large deposits of low grade ore, however, were known to exist below the water level at about 1500 feet down to the 3100 foot level. The expense of hoisting the ore and waste to the surface together with the cost of pumping the wa-ter, made mining of the ore pro-hibitive. - In order to solve this the problem company drove a huge drain-age and transportation tunnel from Tooele on the west of Bingham, a distance of 4 miles to the Na-tional Tunnel property. The tun-nel encountered the Utah Apex shaft at a depth of 2500 feet, there-by draining a large area of the mine and eliminating much of the hoisting expense. Such mining and prospecting Is a far-cr- from the early days of western mining when many de-posits of valuable ore were found at or near the grass-roots- . Thus the future of Utah's mining industry seems to lie in deeper and more exhaustive development ot Utah's mining districts. During the past 80 years Utah's principal- - mining districts ot Bingham, Park City, Tintic, Alta and Beaver county, have yielded in the neighborhood of two billion dol-lars worth of ore. Their lives have been much longer than the ordinary mining districts and needless to say most of the easily obtainable ores have been mined. -- ' The' future of Utah's "mining should be jealously guarded and encouraged as the problems are mounting with the extraction of each pound of ore. ..Editorials Well Worth Reading..

Mecham of the 16th ward has handed us a fine program which does double duty, honoring the missionaries at the ward conference on Sun-day, Oct. 18, and the ward's .men in the country's service on Oct. 25. That ward with a membership of 927 has 83 in the armed forces and 21 mis-sionaries in the field The pro gram is titled For God and Country. And that is appropri-ate, as both missionaries and service men are helpin to pre-pare the way for the coming of th e Master. Neighbor J. F.

Lost Lives May be Salvaged Mrs. Claire Stewart Boyer should be thanked for bring-ing here to lecture a character like Scott Daly who ?pent a week in this city. Here is a man who came up through and out of the underworld, hardened to the Nth degree. In a prison cell, condemned for crime, a spark of love, the first, came into his life, then the bible and good literature, and shortly he became a changed man, a new being, and for a de-cade he has been a tower of spiritual strength to the tens of thousands who have heard him or read his book. He stresses the four things that changed him: faith, love, prayer, Christ, Yes, it can be done. Lost human souls can be saved and rehabilitated not by confinement and torture and brute force and hate, but by love. Any man or woman, willing to pay the price of selfless brotherly love may o among the submerged and fallen and save souls that are worth saving. It can be done Pertect Fconomic System Not Based on Private Ownership Strenuous efforts are being made to show that the econ-omic system known hereabouts as the United Order is to be based on individual ownership. We do not believe it. If a system is to do what is promised that this system will do in its perfected state, there can never be individual or private own-ership of the earth's natural resources.of the means ot product-ion and distribution. If there is then none of the present day evils of the old decrepit, dying capitalistic system will be done away with. Greed, lust for power, envy, jealousy, covet-eousnes- s, poverty, war, and the few living in luxury while tha many are in want, will continue as heretofore. Of course people will own their homes and household goods, etc., but everything else will be OURS and not MINE. The Order spoken of has on three different occasions brought those living it as near to human perfection as possible. Among the ancient inhabitants of the American continent a people called Nephites lived the United Order for a period of 200 years, and the results they obtained could never, worlds ' without end, be attained under private ownership. They had all property in common. There were no rich and no poor, no bondsmen and slaves. All were made free, and all were made partakers of the "heavenly gifts," or the abundant physical and spiritual life. There were no contentions among them because the love of their fellows was in their hearts. There were no envyings nor strifes, nor tumult, nor sexual sins nor murders. The record says there could not be a happier people among all the people created. They were blessed and prosper-ed in all their undertakings. They did mighty works, rebuilt ruined cities and even wrought miracles because when the economic burden was lifted they had the spiritual power to do works like unto those performed by the Master. Such a state of life can be attained under the United Order but never under capitalism. It is because of the great inequality in the present system that the whole world lieth in sin. The private ownership or profit system is geared to poverty for the many and riches for the few, and fattens on scarcity. Under its own laws it must constantly apply the brakes to production in order to pay profits. No matter how good the intentions or how kind the hearts, what hope then for the poor, the hungry and the under-nourishe- "The strongest bond of sympathy, outside of the family relation, should be one uniting all working peo-ple, of all nations, an tongues and kindreds.' Lincoln. Why Do We Tell This? "Poverty is India's curse Rent and interest usually con-sume more thaD one-ha- lf of the peasants' inccome, and most of the rest goes in payments to the money lenders who fre. quently charge up to 100 per cent interest!"-Tim- e. We tell this ''because we are against it, india, in America and everywhere else We denounce those everywhere who through' excessive interest and profit rob the poor and create poverty. Those money lenders in Iudia are as much enemies of mankind and freedom as the worst elements in Japan and Germany and are bevond the pale of redemption. Do Some Thinking It is the honest and unqualified opinion of this paper that the voters should vote NO on that part of the ballot wnich aims to tax the Chain Stores out of the state.

Phelan. ti A Brother to All My brothers are dying in liberty's fight, My sisters are starving 'neath tyranny s might; Their cities are falling, their homes being razed; They're fleeing and hiding and half fear-craz- My brothers and sister war torn lands. My brothers and fisters from conquered soil Are sinkingin slave marts from unending toil; Their children are sending a plaintive appeal That touches my spirit and makes me feel That I am a brother to them in their need. Danes, Nnrsmen and Czheehs have claim on me, Greece, Poland are asking my help to be free; They're crying for freedom and I must be true As brother to help them the whole way through, Restoring the souls that have sore need of me. No warlord can silence the soul's clear cry, No distance can sever the brother tie; Midst ruin and suffering my duty is clear, '; Where want is and need is all humans are deal- - God help me to brother mankind in their need C.NL Let This Truth Sink In "Human greed and selfishness have brought us to our present sorry plight, industrial and commercial development has been so rapid, so all engrossing, that it has outstripped and stultified our moral and spiritual development. "In the crusade for the preservation of liberty and right-eousness to which we are committed, the final victory will at-tend those who are spiritually unconquerable. To renew, to strengthen, to extend spiritual power in man is the supreme task of the hour. It is the task primarily of the church, al-most equally of the home, only in lesser degree of the school." Freedom From Lack Freedom from lack, that is, assurance of the abundant life for every citizen is a high and worthy goal. It is nobly conceived, but up to date has been ignobly carried out The millions of underprivileged should shame the governments, democracies or monarchies, which, notwithstanding all their opportunities for rescue have on the other hand provided and supported policies to enrich the few with a plethora of material possessions, while the masses continued in abject poverty. The one and only remedy for this condition is an awake-ning on the part of the proletariat to their inherent rights: that the demands of true brotherhood be recognized, and the determination to see to it that these demands are instrumented, be carried out through the government established of, for, and by the people. The Negroes and share-croppe- rs of the South, the impoverished workers of the teeming centers of Great Britain, the primitive peoples of the various Colonial posses-sions cry to heaven for release from .both fear and want. How plain it is that no government can or will solve the tremendous problems facing humanity except through recog-nition of and obedience to the divine Will. X because we devoutly wish and And we tell the following prayer that such a condition may come about. Extreme inequality in wealth and possessions should be abolished. Every child regardless of race or class, should have equal opportunities of education suitable for the development of his peculiar capacities. The family as a social unit must be safeguarded. The sense of a divin. vocation must be restored to man's dai y work. The resources of the earth should be used as God's gifts to the whole human race, and used with due consideration for the needs of the present and future generations. C. V. H.
