Lund $1.50 PER YEAR This Happens When Mines Curtail Development Work j Tailings dump gives mute testimony of once active mine. Undoubtedly the most serious i problem facing the state pf Utah J and its future is the development J in the mining industry, j Mining yirtually since the found-- jj ing of this territory in 1847. has fi been one of the backbone indus-- J tries of Utah. Prior to the infjux f of war industries into the state, mining supported directly and in-directly about one half the popula-- " tion.' i During recent years there has teen a noticeable decline in the de-I- I Telopment of new metal producers. Production has been coming large-ly from the older established mines. . New prospect work has been prac-- tically nil and development work in the older mines and older dis-- I triets has been reduced by one " lalf. Mining cannot endure under such T conditions. If the industry is to continue ft pound of pre must be developed for every pound that is mined, jyiany .citizens will ask why this has not been done. Promotion of new mining ven-tures has been virtually eliminated by strict and arbitrary regulations and development in the older mines has been sacrificed in order to keep operating in the face of continually rising costs. The latter have eaten up the margin which was formerly set aside for development of new ore bodies. In addition it is not realized that ore bodies today are more difficult to find. The surface has been combed over and it is necessary to probe deeper into the earth tp find pre. Not only do mines need as much, but they need to be al-lowed to set aside more of their revenue for development work. Mining is too often classed as a manufacturing enterprise. It is vastly different. Mines are de-pendent upon whims of nature and when a ton of pre is mined it is gone forever; it does not grow again, another- - ton must be found or the mine will soon see the end of its life, Take Lessons From Jefferson (Golden grams of Iruth.

If they remain undeceived by the privileged clas, the reactionaries and the and if they are properly informed and fundamentally honest, they will give the best government for states, nalipns and churehes In tiie infant years of America this was a strange doctrine, more or less abhorrent to some. There was confus-ion and fear and many leaders demanded a form of govern-ment that would place all power in the hands of asmall wealthy educated privileged set of men, b Sieving that they alone were fit to lead and govern. In that day, as in all other periods of crisis Destiny raised up a man to stand like the Rock of Gibralter against this idea. That man, the first leader in the worlds t.Q fust the people, was Thomas Jefferson. He,backedby Washinhton's sword, literally saved the American experiment and the cause ,of de-mocracy throughout the world, tie came with a program that led the reactionaries to call him a wild man. He announced hitherto unheard of propositions such as these; "All men are created equal. The people are the guardi-ans of their liberties. Relations between master and slave 8 despotism. The people are to be free. Educate the pe iple. Give them lana; givethein the ballot and as much individual freedom as possible. Prevent the accumulation of wealth in select families " The one enemy which he always fought was priyilige. He was against special privilege by government, by wealth and by aristocracy, and he practically fought it to death in his time. f m m m The Bible In the War Extraordinary culls for copies of the Bible or sel etcd por tipns of the Scriptures eume with the rise and spread of the war.

Some Predictions on End of W r We give here some predictions concerning the end of the war, but in giving them we hold to our belief, based on the prophets and the Pyramid interpreted by the learned Howard B. Rand, that the war will end on March 5, 1945 Believe whichever you like. 'J he San Juan County Record publishes a prediction by one Dr. Lillian Daniels who says the war will end in August, 1943, with an Armistice, that a revolution between capital and labor will rage in America at that time, and also throughout the world; that the Catholic church will come into command, but will be overthrown by a new world Dictator; that a plan-etoid wdl strike the earth during the battle of Armegeddon; that many of our boys will be killed in Palestine; that Jesus will be soen try those who are ready in 1946. A great man in India says: "More than 300 years ago four different sachus and gurus predicted this war exactly and gave the date 1939. They said it would end in the 2000tb year of one of the Hindu calenders, which will be in April, 1943 Everybody EvVy Pay Day j6000,000 Women Enrolled in War Savings Payroll Plan. WASHINGTON, D.

Sin million women are on War Savings payroll plans. Their monthly This Is My Fight Too' deductions total $70,000,000. the customers of 300,000 newspa-- per boys who have sold more than $50,000,000 in War Bonds and Stamps are mostly women. Volunteer saleswomen run nearly all the Bond booths in theatres from Maine to California. They also are sparking the War Bond sales in re-tail stores. Ralph G. Engelsman, Associate Field Director of the payroll savings section of the War Savings Staff, readily admits that without the sup-port of women the phenomenal rec-ord of payroll savings enrollments would not have been achieved. Pay-roll savings plans are now in opera-tion in 148,000 businesses and fac-tories. Employees of twenty-fiv- e thousand of these firms are convert-ing at least 10 percent of gross pay-rolls into War Bonds every payday. Associate Field Director Engels-man says that women have contrib-uted directly and indirectly toward this record. When a man devoted 10 or more percent of his pay envelope' to War bonds, the woman at home has had a powerful voice in the de-cision. Her Dlanning. her economies t , ' : - x v v !

The Treasury Department is count-ing upon this woman influence in its current campaign to "top that 10 percent by New Year's." By the first of the year the Treasury hopes to enroll at least 3,000,000 women workers in a payroll savings plan Proud of hr Investment In the Ameri-can way of life and equally nrnnd of thn grime of war production on her face and arms, the young lady in this "Women At War Week" poster symbolizes two of the chief activities pf women at war. and 5,000,000 more men with total deductions for War Bonds over the 10 percent mark. !

Did he know what He was talking ab-out when He spoke to His apostles and saints as follows: ' Blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you, falsely, for My name's sake ..But woe unto you when all men shall speak well of you" 1(1 fj As U.

How to Build Homes. There is a scarcity of homes in this city, state and nation. And such beiutr the case a way should be found to build homes for all who need them And it can be done easily, not alto-gether in the usual way of building a home where the tota cost for ground, material and work comes to about $2,000 and the selling price put at $4, 500. But here is a way that will assure homes for all. In Ottawa, Illinois, the Libby-Owens-Fo- rJ Glass Co., is engaged in mass production of homes and by their methods they can produce the fabricated material for a complete home in eighty minutes. Such a home consists of living room, kitch-en, dinette and bedroom They can produce thousands, even hundreds of thousands of homes in short order and if old man profit was not standing in the way everybody that needed one might have it. We judge that the total cost should not exceed one thousand dollars Friend J. A. Hess is said to be running toward success in ;the school election ior board member. He has good support HAS AMERICA LEARNED HER LESSON? When one retds and hears the attacks being made on th e ideas and policiesof our president and vice president, also those of Mr. Hull, one wonders whether America will not again 'Win the war and lose the peace." Have the American people, learned their lesson, or will our boys be called again to fight after another 20 or 25 years? Let us look at "The hand writing on the wall." The repub-lican party has always been an isolationist party. There is no doubt that the isolationists Thomas E Dewey, with Senator Taft as a second, are being considered and groomed for the presidency of the United States. Unless they learu better we shall have anheher war like this one and worse. Boyd Dennett Conference in Wilds of New Caledonia iat.k- -, , vl 1.ll, .,... to send (Ids bomber lo war. . .

Some, more aggre ssive than others, have embarked upon vast schemes of each on e envisioning himself as lord of the world and supreme arbiter of the affairs of men. With reckless disre-gard of the righis and feelings of their fellow s they have ruth-lessly crushed al! opposition and marched defiantly on toward their goal. The mightiest struggle for oower this w orld has ever seen is surging about us today. The battle of ages is on. Great nations are locked in combat, fighting for their lives. Everything they posses of money, effort genius, and courage they are flinging unstintedly, and with staggering prodigality into the stupendous conflict. ' |
