Powers, Joseph L. Rawlings, B. H. Roberts, Samuel Tiiurman, George Dern and others. We can never for-get the impression he made upon us in his brilliant camp-aigns throughout the state in earlier year3. He fought like a lion, but the intrenched lions Leaded him off. Few men have served the cause of the Demo cratic party as well and as much and as long as lie has. On the pages of this state he has left a brilliant record, and even at his advanced age lie could yet do yoeman service. He is one of Utah's sterling characters, one of the "noblest Romans" of them all, able, gifted, dignif;ed. As lawyer.businessman, church-man and .government official he has been a complete success. Mrs. A. M. Christopherson of 214 Dubei Ct., one of our good, faithful friends, was in for another visit Saturday. She enjoys the paper.

Ending of the war will find the armed services stocked with large quantities of copper, lead and zinc metal produced by the mining in-dustry in its effort to do its utmost toward winning the war. Just how much will be above ground is prob-lematical, but the stock will be sizeable as the industry has gone all out in Its production efforts. With limited manpower available, .the mining industry has sacrificed development of new ore bodies and produced heavily from known ore reserves. Thus ore reserves are undoubtedly at an e low level in the state of Utah and tlisy will undoubtedly be smaller before the conflict is ended, as there is not sufficient manpower available to keep production at the desired level end perform the necessary amount of exploration at the same time. Hence, the future of what is the State's leading industry normally is far from bright. Unless steps are taken now to prepare for the day when peace comes there could be a I disasterous shutdown throughout the mining industry which would have widespread repercussions up-on all business in Utah. Doubly disasterous would be such a shutdown in the mines, mills and smelters at a time when our sol-diers will be returning and more jobs mandatory. Mining men of the state are unanimously of the opinion that by freezing the stocks of metals in the hands of the military at the end of the war a collapse within the industry may be averted. By freezing the metal, orderly hehabili-tatio- n of the industry could be effected. Mines could turn their attention to ' development work and possibly restore the industry to a normal operating basis. It is pointed out that mining Is one of the state's old established Industries: there is no question whether or not it will remain after the war. The question is, how much of a future has the industry. Whilf this is a national question and ottt. that must be solved on a national basis, it is. nevertheless one that interests every person in the state. If the stocks on hand are thrown upon the market when the war is over, a blow could be dealt tc mil ing from which to recover years. 'oniYy Timely SOMETHING ABOUT JUVENILE ANlTpARENTAL DELINQUENCY; SOME DEPRAVING CONDITIONS Some authorities trace juvenile' delinquency to the sa-loon. Others trace it to the parents. Not long since a young man went to the electric chair. Just before the ordeal he remarked: ''If I had had one friend at the age of twelve I wouldn't have gone wrong." A very heavy blame must be laid on the public for permitting conditions that make for delinquency. The saloon is a large contributor and so are broken and inharmonious homes. We have in our files a letter from a good and more or less prominent citizen. It was not for publication, but we take liberty to give a part of it. It begins: Brother Lund, your idealism is fine. The standards you set are high, but you cannot accomplish much. I have been out among 'em, worked with 'em, took charge of works, etc., and I know conditions. In most places, on the works, the talk is generally suchthat youths should never be allowed to hear it vulgar and pro-fane, and drinking is the rule everywhere. But let me give you the worst example of all I think the worst ever. Unfor-tunately I was an attendant at a meeting, or party, of men only, hundreds of them. Ninety per cent of them were fathers. There was plenty of drinking and vulgar talk and a dance in the nude by an entertainer. Then came a motion picture show-ing nude males and nude females taking part in all the worst sex degeneracies known. With such conduct on the part of fathers what can you expect of the children?" Let the public ponder. The Polygamists The polygamists who are be-ing hunted much like the early Christians, are as sincere and honest in their belief as men can be They believe they are practising a sacred principle of revealed religion and keeping it alive. For their belief they are willing to endure imprisonment and even martyrdom as former saint a and the great Master did. PEACE NOW PROPAGANDISTS BETTER REVISE THEIR THINKING AND TALKING To the advocates of Peace Now we say they had better take note of what a prophet said once upon a time and begin to revise their thinking and talking. Joseph Smith saw in vision? all that is happening today saw it from the first gun that was fired to the last gun that will be fired. He saw all the killing and the suffering and the destruction even in detail. And while he was describing it he flung to all men the ques-tion: "With a view of this shall I cry peace? No! J will lift up my voice and testify of it." The Master told it all in Mathew 24. He said elsewhere, "Peace shall be taken frpm the earth, and wars and ' calamities should continue until a full end is made of all nations. That is His word, not ours, and His word shall' not fail. Puny man, even agents of Hitler and Tojo, are cryipg peace now, but they are powerless to do as they would like, and even if succeeded they would but sow the seeds for the third World War. Watch Destiny work out its program. Political Items T lie statesustained a less in the deat h of Judge Moffat. In selecting a successor it should" be the aim to find an able and liberal minded lawyer. The office should seek the man. The Townsend Plan or some compaiable program to be en-acted into law is becoming more and more necessary. If the right, plan is not adopted there will be, says Dorothy Thompson, danger of post war race riots and perhaps rev-olution. A PATRIOT SPEAKS Harold B. Lee, L. D.S Apos-tle, has preached a sermon in wh'ch he sets forth exactly the same idea that we have been putting over in regard to mal-igning the president and the government, and it is the exact opposite of what another lead-er has been setting forth Elder Lee said: "In a few months we will have another polilical campaign. Our young people will bear the character of every candidate slandered and de-famed. That on election day some of these slandered persons will be elected, and we shall ex-pect all our youngsters to re-spect them as our leaders. It is a paradox " This is sound TO THOSE WHO HAVE LOST SONS IN THE WAR By C. N. Lund When the cruel war is ended And the victory is won; When the ways of hate are mended We would welcome home our son. We would hasten out to meet him Should we see him coming near; With our outstretched arms we'd greet him With a wealth of joy and cheer. But we know that he is sleep-ing With the millions who were slain, And our hearts are vigil keep-ing Through the lonely hours of pain. Nobly there his life was given In the fight to make men free, When the world's great heart was riven By the foes of liberty. In our country's soul we see him, Spirit risen out of war. In the flag our minds can see him Smiling peace from star and bar. How long must man his bro-ther's skill And the law of love betray? How long the world with sor-row fill By shunning the Master's way? Communication. 1 he b'ovcry propln like to parade their pride for patrioti-sm ; profit to them is the real obiect. Quoting from the Brew-ery News of 1932, just after the repeal was put over on the American people by a group of g millionaires. The News paid "Not one tenth of one per cent of the youth of America know the taste of real beer; we must educate them,' and the Brewers Digest of May 1941, said : One of the finest things that could have happen-ed to the brewing industry was the insistence by high rnnking army officers to make beer available in army camps. Ag-ain the Brewers Digest said. "The opportunity presented to the brewers industry by this measure is so obvious that it s superfluous to go into detail. Here is the chance for the Bre-wers to cuhivate the taste for beer in millions of young men who will eventually constitute the largest beer drinking sect-ion of i he population."

Kodak Repairing Over 40 Years In SALT LAKA CITY, WHAT MIGHT BE DONE WITH THE STAGGERING WASTE OF WAR If all the massed billions that the warring countries are spending for munitions and conflict were turned for use to the avenues of peace what a world might be made. Every-where could be built millions of new and better homes for the poor. They could build thousands of new and better schools common, high, colleges and 'Universities and equip them as schools have never before been equipped. They might fill the cities with more and better hospitals. They might equip every home with the modern things that the rich have. They could secure for each family an inheritance of land and a home. They could beautify mother earth everywhere. They could build great and beautiful temples for religion and for education. They could ribbon their countries with trans-continental highways and cover the seas and the air with great passenger ships for travel and study. Through peace they could establish brotherhood which would make such a civiliza-tion as even the Gods might envy. .... - I PONDS OVER AMERICA Irrigating millions of acres and providing Boulder Dam I unlimited electric en- - ergy, Boulder Dam on .n?;: the Colorado river is tSs" one of the construction '01&iZ'- - Si. wonders of the world f It represents an invest- - 5 " g w.

A few live-wir- e busi-ness men got their heads together and worked out a great advertising campaign for that part of the country because, they said, it had perpetual sunshine. It is time that Utah community builders got their heads together and advertised this state as a place of security safety from the storms of evil that are soon to sweep over the land. While there will be, according to prophesies, calamity after calamity on both coasts and in the mid-secti- of the nation, there will be more of peace and security here in the mountains than any-where else in the world It is high time someone was telling the country and the world about this. If there is security anywhere for mankind it will be here in the fastnesses of the everlasting hills, and don't you forget it. Shortly, because of disasters, East and West people will flock here by the tens of thousands and' provision must be made for. their feeding and housing. Someone may laugh at this, but just keep your eyes and ears open. Advertise Utah for security and safety. ... m- SOME REAL TRUTH About 3000 years ago two were walking among the people but, like all prophets they were somewhat as follows: "Rulers, you are criminals, merci-lessly eating the people whom you should be protecting. You are haters of the good and lovers of evil. You judges and priests are corrupt and mercenary; full of hypocrisy, uttering cant about the Lord's care for yourselves even while you are plundering the poor. To you officials we say: Graft is written all over the public life. And to you wealthy we say: Lust for money has utterly destroyed the ancient manhood of Israel. There isno longer any brotherhood; love of country has become a mercenary patriotism. The one satisfaction in life is to get and hoard. He is the best and greatest man who can steal most and keep within the law. Laws are made for the benefit of you, the rich." That's Bible Talk. NEW O TELEPHONE DIRECTORY JJ O GOING TO WilLtes PRESS (T fLi COMMUNICATION Editor Progressive Opinion: t May I add to your editorial of January 28th entitled "NO PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE IN POLITICS", or very little progress since George Washington. The following editorial is convincing evidence of this lack of progress. "INTERESTING WHAT?" "While a Democratic House and Senate are wondering whether to pass finally the sundry civil bill which prevents the department of justice appropriation from being used to enforce the law against labor unions that operate in restraint of trade that same department of justice indicts a number of officers of the miner's union for conspiring to raise wages in the West Virginia coal fields. It is charged in the indictment that these labor leaders conspired with the mine owners and operators in other com-petitive fields to raise wages in West Virginia in order that the price of coal might be increased, thus giving these rivals an excuse to raise also the price of their coal. IS NOT THIS A MOST INTERESTING ADMINISTRATION?" No, reader. You guessed wrong. This news item was not taken from a local paper of recent date but clipped from the old HERALD REPUBLICAN of June 19, 1913 nearly 31 years ago! No. We don't make much progress. We have managed to get one law through congress regulating unions but our congressmen didn't put any teeth in it. In other and plainer words, THE LAW DOES NOT PROVIDE A PENALTY! Geo. E. Manwaring. |
