dustries ' 'Through industrial and labor organizations as well as civic groups people living in ing communities should assert their interest in maintenance of postwar industries such as Geneva steel" he said Price control through outside government agencies is difficult Mr Brophy asserted comparing federal bureaus with big corporations which he said have used their own methods to control could prices Such price control of an be effected by the adoption industry council plan using the machinery of big corporations to control prices Under the plan as advocated by the labor leader unions would be given an opportunity to participate in decisions -of policy made by corporations "Under the plan the corporations also will be expected to maintain' certain minimum employmentl levels They will undertake to rrovide jobs at all times regardless of fluctuations in production levels The grand total must add up to 60000000" he said Serve Public Interest "Corporations exist to serve the public interest and not merely the private profit of industrialists and bankers" he said "Geneva's markets are here in the seven western states" Gov Maw emphasized "And estimated peacetime production of

Mining Firms Win Tax Recovery Suit Court Holds State Made Illegal Levy Collection District Judge M J Bronson granted 11 Utah mining companies judgment to recover more than $27000 paid to the Utah state tax commission under protest as an occupational tax based on government subsidy payments Judge Bronson held that the state tax commission had no authority to levy or collect an occupational tax from the mining companies including in the base used for such purposes subsidies paid to the corporations by the United States government 'I am of the opinion that the premiums or bonus paid by Metal Reserve Co cannot under the statutes of the state of Utah involved be considered a part of the 'gross proceeds' of a bona fide sale of the mtal products of plaintiff minSuch payments ing companies constitute an inducement to increase production adding nothing to the intrinsic value of the metal that would in any way affect its sale price on a free and open market to any independent and unhampered purchase" Judge Bronson ruled The mining companies and the amount of the judgment granted follow: Tintic Standard Mining Co $440494 plus $6020 Eureka Lilly Consolidated Mining Co $10792 Conplus $147 Montana-Binghasolidated Mining Co $32959 plus $455 Chief Consolidated Mining Co $492239 plus $6973 Colorado Consolidated Mines Co $13758 plus $168 Eureka Bullion Mining Co $7243 11 S

Petition Third District Judge A H Ellett a general Wednesday tooverruled the gubernatorial demurrer election recount petition of J Bracken Lee Republican candidate for governor but sustained special demurrers requiring amendments to the petition Judge Ellett held allegations in the pleadings were sufficient for the petition to be brought before the court with specific amendments Mr Lee's attorneys were told they must revise their petition to eliminate a request that double ballots be counted The supreme court has invalidated such ballots They also must specify districts where alleged irregularities exist to eliminate the necessity of recounting votes in all election districts Judge Ellett ruled The petitioners must make spec:fic charges where irregularities are alleged because election judges were drunk that strangers were allowed to carry ballots to the county clerk and that all election judges were not allowed to witness the counting Judge Ellett said Shirley P Jones and George M Cannon counsel for Dir Lee were granted 10 days in which to amend the petition Calvin W Rawlings Brigham E Roberts and Walter M Critchlow attorneys for Gov Herbert B Maw will have 10 days
