Show 0REM . GENEVA TIMfta THURSDAY, MARCH 25, 1943 ? LOOKING tm AHEAD GEORGES. BENSON Sure). Atiansat A Speech Was Made letter came to my desk a few weeks ago containing one paragraph Lt astonished me. It read: "At the rhurch conference ijield in this southern district a speech was made against toe profit motive." That any American group, particularly particu-larly a religious group, should raise its voice against the profit motive struck me as amazing. To get rid of the profit motive, y0U would have to find some substitute substi-tute for economics in modern civilization. civili-zation. You would have to eliminate all trading and marketing, buying and selling. You would have to get rid of money and other mediums of exchange. You would have to cease bartering and swapping. In fact, you would have to reduce your modern mod-ern civilization to self-sufficiency of the individual. Only Two Ways A modern and complicated civilization civili-zation like our own could not do without trade, exchange, manufacturing, manufac-turing, raw materials and production. produc-tion. You just have to ask more than it cost you. That is what profit means. And without the profit motive, mo-tive, trade and commerce would die. There are only two ways that an economy may operate. In America individuals own farms, stores, factories, fac-tories, and run them for the chief purpose of making enough profit to live on. The other way is for government gov-ernment to own everything, operating operat-ing all production merely for the purpose of feeding the people and supplying what it thinks are their seeds. Compare the Two! The profit irotive is the very foundation foun-dation of our American way of life. It is the constitutional way in our country. It has produced more enthusiasm, en-thusiasm, finer cooperation, and a greater abundance of clothing, food, housing, and transportation than the masses of the people have ever known in any other country. The other kind of economy, owned and operated by the government, attempts to do away with the profit motive. Actually, it does away with incentives, individual initiative, and efficiency. This kind of economy soon settles down to a "what's-the-use" status, offering only the barest necessities to its people. Russia is a good example of this. Russia has attempted to substitute other enthusiasms enthu-siasms for those of owning property and making profit, but she has found that whenever she wanted increased in-creased industrial output she had to imitate some of the incentives that are so common,'n America. Advance Agents? The very concepts of freedom of the individual spring from the Bible. Therein you will find the foundation, for the freedoms and liberties that America has built upon. I am unable un-able to explain why church leaders are willing to attack the profit motive. mo-tive. To do so indicates tremendous misunderstanding of the American way of life, of our constitutional government, and the freedoms of the individual. Let us not confuse greed and sin with the profit motive. There is nothing un-Christian, nor anti-social, in fair and honest buying and selling sell-ing and trading. One who is against the profit motive is In reality opposed to ownership of property, for when the profit motive is taken away, the right to own things must go with it. It is high time for some of our religious people to start thinking through these things. Doing Do-ing this, perhaps they would refuse to be used as advance agents of socialism and communism. i 5"5rV .J life- 1 TELLURIDE Ashton Advises Orchardists Here On Pear Blight Damage to Utah County pear orchards by pear blight during 1947 may cost growers nearly one-half their crops during 1948, it was estimated last week by Clarence Ashton of Pleasant View, extension horticulturist for the USAC. He declared that the loss last year was about one-third one-third of the crop. Mr. Ashton believes that fruit growers can avert another snrh loss by carrying on an extensive spraying campaign. Bordeaux mixture has been used by some in this area and in the neighboring states with ennd results according to Mr. Ashton. it consists of 2 pounds of copper suipnate, 6 pounds of hydrated lime and 100 gallons of water. Pear trees should be sDraved with this mixture when they are in lull bloom and before rain falls on the blossoms. Rain dil utes the nectar in the blossoms and causes the bacteria to in crease. The bacteria then goes down the tissue and into the bark where it goes to work. "If it becomes necessary to s'pray the trees before they are in full bloom," says Mr. Ashton, "it should be done before a rain storm hits." He also recommended recommend-ed a second spraying after the blossoms have fully developed. VINEYARD Maliceni C. Weill Phone 0893J1 Fast Day services will be held on Sunday at 11:30.

County Planner Asks Compliance By Builders All buildings in the unincorporated unincor-porated areas of Utah County, whether constructed or moved onto the site, must meet minimum mini-mum building standards, I. Dale Desnpin, Utah County planning director, warned today, pointing out that it has come to the attention at-tention of Utah County authorities authori-ties that a number of unauthorized unauthor-ized buildings have been moved onto sites in the County. A permit must be obtained from the Utah County building inspector before any structure can be built or placed on a jite, as required by law, he said. Anyone Any-one failing to follow this procedure pro-cedure is subject to a heavy penalty pen-alty and can expect to be prosecuted prose-cuted unless the permit is secured. se-cured. "Experience in growing communities com-munities has demonstrated that enforcement of good building practice is necessary to prevent the erection of unsightly, unsafe and unsanitary 'jerry-built' struc tures," he declared. Unless everyone complies with the law requiring sound building, the value of every home is in jeop ardy, since a dilapidated structure struc-ture invariably depreciates the value of surrounding property.
