| Show AND AN TWEEN with OREN PROBERT during the past ten days I 1 have received a fairly comprehensive pi ture of business conditions through out the county this picture is one i of assorted colors wherein the ele I 1 ments of prosperity seem limited to certain localities the more ifield critics list politics lack of coo connerat on and non progression as principles in the rejection of a portrait which should reflect good bus ness on the surface I 1 it Is a natural drawn conclusion that business will have its ups and downs but some of the local down drafts ire tre being credited to the intervention of politics and ion into certain sales attractions namely those that add zest to life I 1 am not advocating any change in pol cy nor am I 1 intimating the reed for reform but I 1 have noticed the operations of oth other business establishments within the state of utah and there is definitely a dif ference in legal opinions some counties allow dancing and drink ing under the same roof and even I 1 i pin ball machines are legal neith er is it unusual to see john law frequent such places during his off duty hours and even upper crusted socialites are accustomed to such entertainment but these places are not open to the public in too ele county and such activities are confined to private clubs where slot machines and hard drinks are perfectly within the limitations thus comes a question n why is one right and not the other it is human nature to seek out certain types of vice and spice if it it cannot be found in an immediate vicinity then the object is to go elsewhere this is especially no ti ceable among the tourists that pass over our state highways each year whether or not a pin ball ma C chine hine can be considered as a con tri butor dovice to vice is questionable but certainly it is a source of prodoc ing revenue and business men in tooele thoele county who are in a po to install these machines icart cant understand why utah does n t have a uniform system for op aerating such games of chance it could also be beneficial to the i county through taxation and it would be a means of keeping leisure money in the county and so on As to the most beneficial plan for all concerned I 1 would not at tempt to make an answer but one thought I 1 believe most every one agrees upon is that a little vice seems necessary in life but be comes monotonous when it can be done openly and a test for clever ress when there is a law again against i it and cleverness has a nasty habit of back firing I 1 understand a young woman fn TOD park recently discovered an inheritance through the court of missing heirs something like ten thoi sand dollars and a home in california the tooele thoele county chamber of commerce will have its first board meeting in the tooele thoele city hall on friday nov 21 1947 directors will be elected at the same meeting i tooele thoele county may have a viana na dional guird gu ird unit stationed within n its boundaries in the very near future there is a 12 cent over the flats this will mean an hourly increase in pay if the rumor falls onto paper i one hears much about elig eligible ible bachelors lets turn this around for a change and say two of too eles ele s most eligible girls are ginger allred and mary Me lalich I 1 wallace ran out of the house rolled in the snow and said gee whiz look at all the I 1 dent |
