And it does seem as though the farther they get from a iece of property the better they can assess it. Mr. Leatham oade a special trip through Utah county a couple of weeks eo to find out the real status of the assessment. Robert J Elliott, county assessor, was feeling great when the sur- ey, was finished, because Mr. Leatham had expressed his mnioil to the effect that the assessment was fair enough, tafact in some cases slightly higher than the sale price of he land would indicate it should be.

So, barricading themselves behind-a wall of argument hat ;Utah county assessment should be raised to the level of he other counties; the three commissioners made the raise.

Editor's Note: The following communication represents the reactions of lft-year-oid youth who attended an open-air meeting at Pioneer park last Thursday evening. THE COMMUNIST MEETING Thursday night a speech was given in Pioneer park on the political poli-tical situation of the United States and its comparison with successful Russia. Before the World war the communists com-munists made the same attempt to overthrow the government as they are doing at the present time. This man who gave the speech declared the present system of government gov-ernment as a failure and ought to he changed. But he did not offer to outline another system of government gov-ernment that was better than the present system. If this government was over thrown, every man or wonian with an ounce of brains in his or her head, knows that this country would be plunged into riots, mobsr murders, robbery and worse. There would be no police force to protect pro-tect them and their homes. Most of you 'who have read your history remember reading of the Panic of 1819. This epic was as bad as the present one only it didn't last as long. And was this depression conquered by a revolution? revolu-tion? It was NOT. It was conquered con-quered by clear thinking and level headed men! I am sorry to say that this man has about 150 followers or about 160 persons attending this meeting, meet-ing, but I wouldn't doubt for a minute that a good deal of these followers were hired followers. When a man got up and announced an-nounced that he would give a talk on the other side -of the situation he was answered with cat-calls and jeers. In this way showing their low intellect. I want no man to. think that I am satisfied with thepresent government, gov-ernment, but what I do believe is this: We do not need a new system, sys-tem, we need a thorough cleaning out of all the grafters and corrupters corrupt-ers in the government machinery. A replacing of patriotic and honest hon-est men of ability. Our system is the best in the world today. If that speech Thursday night had been given by an English-talking American, I would not be writing writ-ing this article, but it was given by a foreign-talking Bolshevik and the people should have taken warning warn-ing by his accent. There is a saying, and I believe it, that happiness comes only to the poor. Well, who desires to be unhappy? FRED CAREY, 810 West First North, Provo, Utah. DECISION ARGUED PARIS, Aug. 2 (UP) A linesman's decision on a close play prevented a fighting Yankee team from wresting wrest-ing the Davis cud from its French defenders, so the historic tennis trophy will remain in France for the sixth consecutive year. This decision, which has started widespread argument, occurred at match point and took victory from Wilmer Allison of Texas in his singles match yesterday with the basque veteran, Jean Borotra, giving France the necessary three out of five matches to win th series. Borotra was credited with beating beat-ing Allison 1-6. 3-6. 6-4, 6-2, 7-5. Siamese citizens are using American flashlights more than fhey are those from other countries. coun-tries.
