Arguments can be produced on both sides yet the fact remains that in the large majority of cases where the municipality, state or nation enters the business field, expense of operation is higher than in individual undertakings of similar character. It is impossible for political management to give as efficient an eco nomical service as private management for the simple reason that there is not the same incentive; if the political manager fail, the taxpayer imply pays the bill, where if the private management fails the owners util-Jti- et m illions for extensions, double-track-in- The League of America, the Nemetla of the saloons throughout the nation, encouraged by their wonderful success in cleaning the saloons out of state after state are now planning and executing a nation wide movement looking to the submission to the states of an amendment to the federal constitution outlawing Intoxicants throughout the nation. For years, this organization has been Fadf&njf to this moveraenlbul now the time is considered ripe for a tig drive. ln.thiii, the states that have already outlawed the saloon are taking the lead because the states that still have the license system are bending their efforts for-- state wide prohibition for their own state. It is because of this fact that the dry states and those that have voted dry but whose laws' have not yet gone into effect are taking the lead. The leaders say that this campaign Is not so much for creating sentiment b to organize and direct the sentiment already created and make It a driving force to attain the desired result in the nation. To Campaign in Utah. The national organization, acting In with the Utah Federation of Betterment Leagues of .which Hon Heber J. Grant is president, is now preparing for a speaking campaign in practically every town and city in Utah of a population of 600 and upwards with the idea of giving Utah a place in the sun in the nation wide contest which is approaching. If congress does not submit the amendment Anti-Saloo-n g and new terminals, Congress responds with the Adamson bill. When there is a great need in our country for abundance of farm labor to clear our rough lands and get them ready jo produce Congress adopts an immigration law to shut out common not compete. DOES BUSINESS UP IN THE AIR The Mountain State Telephone &. Telegraph Co. is an industry making a wonderful growth in the mountain also a fact that in most cities largely Involved in municipal enterprises, taxes are highest in spite of all promises to the contrary. The reason for this is that political management gives cheap rates and charges up the deficits caused thereby to the general taxpayer while the private plant must charge a rate sufficient to cover cost of topers tion.
