Knotty Problems . fgripK? Ci' s' The many folks including politicians, newspapermen and run-o- t mine prognosticators who predict ed that the Twenty-firs- t Utah Leg islature would provide the most important, most interesting and most lively of all Beehive state lawmaking gatherings were able to chortle I told you so before the first week of the 1935 session had ended. The political horoscopers were also in the black their figuring that taxation, liquor control and social security legislation would take the spotlight early in session activities. The great preponderance of tax bills, speedy introduction of liquor measures, and early appearance on the legislative horizon of industrial compensation, child labor and other social legislation proved their to be right. And speaking of right the legislators with southpaw tendencies were early in the fore with meah pre-sessi- sures tending to carry out leftist ideas in social legislation and taxation in particular. More conservative senators and representatives accepted the challnge and prepared to do, battle against "left ist bills that they believed would go far toward wrecking business and industry throughout the state. Bills to raise taxes bills to lower taxes bills to take care of tax monies collected poured into the legislative hopper during the initial week. A dozen or more will be up for early consideration, with no one apparently knowing just how the proposed measures will reequalize in the matter of state on governvenue needed to carry mental functions during the next two years.

STATE STORES VS. PRIVATE SALES Hard liquor seems to hold first place in the debates of the legislature at the capitol. Considerable fog, too dense even for the legislators themselves was thrown over the issue by the changes made in the bill offered by the governor's committee, establishing state liquor stores, when it was presented by Mr. Lamoreaux of Salt Lake City. Further than saying that the changes are entirely his own, Mr. Lamoreaux has failed to give any explanation of them, and a committee waiting on Governor Blood for enlightenment, was told that his views and recommendations were complete as contained in his message to the legislature. Looking the situation over from a distance, and without any inside information available, one wontions, the really busy legislators ders if all these changes may have found their way are President Herbert B.
