Razing Of Old Church Recalls Early History No doubt residents of Provo, southeast of University avenue, have noticed, just before the present pres-ent heavy fall of snow, a large crew of workmen busy pulling down the walls of an old landmark. The clci First ward church, locatec' just a half block south of the present-new structure, has given way before the march of time; to the regret of many old-timers. At the time the old church was erected, 1885, the Provo First ward extended from the mountains, wes1 to Fourth West; and from Center street, southward an indefinite distance. The ward had a small membership, member-ship, being much less than that of the present ward, and meetings were conducted in the basement oi the eld meeting house. The old meeting house, torn down yeahs ago, occupied the corner of the btake tabernacle block. Because of the growing membership the nee J for a new meeting place was felt and J. P. R. Johnson, bishop, called call-ed for donations to build a chapel. First Brick Church Bricks were obtained from the brick yards near the east side of town. Rome lumber had been bought, from lumber-yards, and a. good deal was taken out of the mountain' timbers. Labor was donated do-nated and construction was soon under way. When the structure was completed it was the first church built of brick in Provo. Ward members placed a number of letters, pictures, and various other papers in a box, locked it and placed it in a safe place; to be opened, according to aid resi dents, fifty years afterwards. Since the church was completed in 1885 the period has nearly expired. Much of interest should come to light with the opening of the box. This old building was built without with-out the aid of an architect, and was so solidly constructed that it has endured to be, at the time the new chapel was dedicated, the oldest old-est church being used in Provo. The old must ever give way to the new, but there are many who feel regret at the passing of the old meeting place.

This plan would lead to a sweeping sweep-ing advance to envelope all Jehol province. Armored trains between Nanling and Chaoyang were bombarded. bom-barded.

Jackson EDITOR'S NOTE: Most of the articles printed concern-iirg1 concern-iirg1 Technocracy have taken the Technocrats' figures and statements at face value. The subject is of such vital importance im-portance that The Herald believes be-lieves all angles should be given giv-en its readers. In this short, easily-understood series, Mr. Jackson examines some of the Technocrats figures. Hia conclusions con-clusions ars printed as a. ccn-tribatlo ccn-tribatlo to tha ffcrarsl discussion; dis-cussion; they are not necessarily neces-sarily those cf this ncwsjaper. TL'.s means, in brief, that farming, farm-ing, tor instance, even with the best of modern methods, probably would require many more men than the technocrats figure.

Under the act, which was passed over a Calvin Coclidge veto, Workl war volunteer officers who are rated not less than 30 per cent permanently disabled resuUity from war service shall be paid for life 75 per cent of their war-time pay. Unfairness Charged These payments amount to $11,-016,000 $11,-016,000 a year. Were this pay abolished, abol-ished, the officers would revert to their normal compensation status wilich would leave a charge estimated esti-mated by the National Economy league at about $4,000,000 a year, making a net envinp of $7,000,000 a year and still leaving any volunteer volun-teer officer injured in war service receiving the fam compensation as enlisted men injured under similar sim-ilar circumstances. The veterajjs1 bureau estimates the saving at about half this figxi: e. In criticizing these payments, the National Economy league says that many emergency officers 30 per cent disables receive more pay than enlisted men totally disabled. "This legislation has resulted in 6,106 men receiving more, because they served as officers, than they would hac if they had served as enlisted men." the economy league asserts. It says repeal of the 'egis-lation 'egis-lation would remove from the rolls 4,000 temporary war-time officers receiving an average retirement pay of $139 a month. Previously under reguiai compensation benefits bene-fits they averaged $51 a month. This group includes "presumptive disability" and also a number of men who?t disability occurred after the arm?stice---the war legally legal-ly continued until the first summer sum-mer of the Harding administration, when on July 2. 1921 the separate treaty of pea-c with Germany was concluded.
