UTAH STATE M THE ATLANTIC CHARTER We wonder what has become of the Atlantic Charter, that noble declaration of the four freedoms which President Roosevelt and Winston Churchill assured the world would be won for all of civilization. If diplomatic assassins sneaked up behind the charter and struck a knife in its back it is going to be hard to exhume the body with which to embarrass them. Mr. Roosevelt revealed that he and Churchill scribbled the document aboard the Prince of Wales and then gave it to radio operators for broadcasting purposes. In all likelihood, the actual written evidence is at the bottom of the South Pacific where the Japs sent it. In view of recent developments in the world since that summer day when the charter was flashed to the world, the irony of the missing evidence, comes with a burst of mocking laughter. People of all nations thought that the charter was a concrete going document, fully discussed and agreed in solemn conference, until they saw violence being done to its precepts on all sides. As people saw England interfering in Greece, and pretty much dictating her choice of government; as they saw Russia impose its own ideas of government on Poland; as they saw great question marks of deals and spheres of influence take shape over the Balkan states; as they saw Churchill impose restrictions on the Italians in their selection of a government it became increasingly evident that the leaders did not know either the spirit or the words of the charter. Perhaps many thinking men will say that the charter was too advanced and that it represented that age-ol- d tendancy of the devil, when sick, to become a monk. The ideals and principles of justice and equity set forth in the charter have been cast aside too lightly. MENTAL BUILDING Cities can be rebuilt, new buildings erected to take the place of destroyed ones, material scars will be gradually erased or softened by the kind hand of time. The greatest reconstruction will be on the minds of men. In order to make the world a safe place again, we will have to begin at the beginning. We will have to teach morality, truth, kindliness, tolerance, respect for human life and reverence for the religious creeds of all. These things we will have to remember, they have never been taught to the young in the dictator nations. It took centuries to solve our standards of morality. What we learned slowly we will have to depend upon the acceptance of a common code of ethics, a free flow' of truth to all the world and the reestablishment of confidence in the efficacy of our beliefs in democ racy. with Gods vast domain and the majesty and serenity in which it moves on in its alloted course.

But at the end of the two-thirmark of this session, none of them have been put into law. For the past number of years the school people and all those concerned with the education of Utah s best crop have been determinedly trying to solve the question of fr. nancing Utahs fine educational program in a way compatible with both the educational desires of the people and the ability to pay of the taxpayers. None of the measures calculated to accomplish those desirable ends have gotten beyond committee consideration And as the twenty-sixt- h session got into its forty-thir- d day Monday, both houses had sifting committees to tell the lawmakers which bills they could or could not fuither consider and act upon. Seven senators and seventeen representatives, or better, the majority of either, can tell from now on out what laws the lawmakers will have a chance to pass upon Moot questions of civil service, ds retirement privileges, tax ceilings, post-waviation, highways, appointments to various state commissions, salaries, sale of liquor by the drink or otherwise, control of livestock on the public domain, fishing and hunting opportunities, the care of inmates in public stitutions, these and a lot more of equal interest are out on the limb which the sifting committees can decide to saw off or leave dangar in- ling.
