SJAYCEES MAKING PLANS FOR SPRING RAT ERADICATION Members of the Bingham Can yon Junior Chamber of Com-merce voted at their regular semi-monthl- y meeting held Mon-- I day evening to conduct a rat control program in Bingham dis-trict during the latter part of April. The project will be under supervision of the United States Public Health Service Poison bait will be available to anyone in the district, free of charge if they will leave their orders at the Union Drug company. The district of Copperfield and the Utah Copper company shops will be centers of concentration for the drive. Jaycees plan to place bait in several places in the com-munity. If you have rats near your home, be sure and place your order for bait. Ray Alves, Bruce Ivie Jr., and Tom Carri-ga- n are Jaycee members in charge of the project. President Bob Jimas appoint-ed Elmo A. Nelson, Warren Wood-ward and Charles Bates as com-mitteemen to work out details for the local cancer fund drive when the national program gets underway. Dale Johnston, Leland G. Bur ress and Mr. Jimas were named on the nominating committee to select candidates for Jaycee of-fices for 1945-4- Election of of-ficers will be held the first meet ing in May.

Next regular meeting of the Jaycees will be held at Bingham club Monday evening, April 23. V PRES. ROOSEVELT DIES THURSDAY President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 63. died at 4:35 p.m. Thursday, April 12, of cerebral hemorrhage at Warm Springs Georgia. News of his death was receiv-wit- h great sorrow by the people of his country and the world, who placed great confidence in him in his b'attle for human lib- - erty. He was one of the handful of men on whom whole nations of people were depending to per- - feet a world organization for free- - dom and peace. The death of the nation's comma-nder- in-chief came at a time when it appeared that plans for peace on which he had long been laboring might be needed sooner than had formerly been anticipa-ted. Allied soldiers were reported within 20 miles of Berlin. Within the last week, news of the resig-nation of the Japanese war cabi- - net seemed an indication that Ja-pan was viewing with concern American advances in the Paci-fi- c. President Roosevelt was reared with advantages of education, wealth and social position. He Will be remembered as a presi- dent who championed the weak and underprivileged. He was assistant secretary of navy under President Woodrow Wilson in World War I. He serv-ed two terms as governor of New York and upon his record in that position was elected president in 1932. He was inaugurated in a time of widespread unemployment and severe depression. National industrial recovery was underta-ken on a large scale. Business and industrial codes were set up in an attempt to prevent unfair prac- - tices and to increase employment Billions were appropriated for unemployment relief, public works, and the rehablitation of the mortgage-burdene- d farmer and home owner. Unemployment insurance and old-ag- e pensions were instituted. Roosevelt was reelected in 1936 by a great popular plurality. During his second term the "New Deal" program was slowed down by a bitter struggle with Congress over the proposal to reorganize the Supreme Court, by serious strikes and labor troubles, and by growing concern with prob-lems of national defense. In 1940 Roosevelt was again reelected, the first president to receive a third term. Increasingly serious condition of world affairs caused Americans to reject a change in leadership In Decern- - ber 1941, following the Japanese! attack on Pearl Harbor, the Uni-te- d States declared war on Japan ana me axis powers, ine course chosen by the president was cre-dited with conversion of United States into an arsenal for the na-tions fighting for freedom. In 1944 Americans reelected Roosevelt for a fourth term. His popular percentage was a shade lower than 1940, but still a sma-shing electoral victory. The peo-ple did more than reject the tra-dition against extra presidential terms. In this election the people spoke for international coopera-tion. President Roosevelt is the first president to die in war time and he is considered a war casualty as certainly as any soldier fallen in battle. In war and in peace Roosevelt was a magnificent leader of great courage. A few hours after the presi-dent's death, at 7:08 p.m. in Washington, D. C, Supreme Court Justice Harlan F. Stone gave the oath of office to Harry S. Truman, who went into the office of vice president through the quirks of politics and is now facing the tremendous responsi-bility of carving out policies of Roosevelt. Many governmental leaders thronged into the cabinet room to watch the Missourian assume office. O RITES HONORED MIKE BRISK AT CIVIC CENTER Canyon lodge No. 13.

The Americas, yesterday, to-day and tomorrow was the sub-ject title used by Mrs- Lyon in commemorating Pan American day, April 14, stressing the need of the Inter-America- n nations upon a basis of mutual helpful-ness and respect. Using material furnished by the U. S. government and quot-ing such imminent leaders as Cordell Hull, Mrs. Lyon empha-sized the inter-dependen- of all the nations of the world, the need of the Pan American un-ion, a voluntary association for the safety of the United States, which provides common defense and mutual protection, demon-strates the ability of the Ameri-can people to unite against com-mon dangers, serves as a perma-nent secretariat of the interna-tional conferences of American states and promotes inter-America- n understanding. Through the efforts of the Inter-- system, peoples will be taught the importance and meaning of true democracy, the need of a middle class in the Latin American countries and the protection of investments and interest all in the need of a part-nership in mutual helfulness, stated Mrs. Lyon.

The steel company's payroll last year, first year of steel production, was $8,000,000, more than that of the state of Utah and nearly as great as the payroll of giant Utah Cop-per company.

The state of Utah paid salaries totaling $7,963,834 in all its de-partments last year. This was paid to some 4000 persons. Three thousand of these were issued payroll checks through the de-partment of finance and the oth-er 1000 (approximate) were em-ployees of the University of Utah, the Utah State Agricultural Col-- I lege and the Branch Agricultural College, whose part-tim- e em-- ; ployees were added together and regarded as full-tim- e jobs for purposes of this comparison.
