One year, trietij in advance $3 00 Six Month : 2 M A DIFFICULT JOB OF OVERHAULING SALUTE TO SCERA Against the background of Provo's recently renewed , struggle to launch a program which will give them a swimming pool, the accomplishment of Scera in completing com-pleting the Scera pool this week is all the more noteworthy. note-worthy. Swimming pools don't come easy. If they did, every city would have several. Regulations which govern the water purifying plant provide that a huge investment Is necessary. Provo's decade-long efforts to provide a pool for their youngsters attests the difficulty with which swimming facilities are attained on a community basis. It is to the great credit, therefore, of Scera's administrators administ-rators and to Scera's manager, Victor C. Anderson, that this community can have a fine pool at this time. It has taken a vision which is characteristic of Scera's administrators, admin-istrators, and has taken careful planning and cooperative effort. Orem and the entire Scera community will be proud of the pool. First of all it will remove the fears which usually usual-ly attach themselves to pool swimming the fears of infectious in-fectious diseases. The water, because of the modern purifying plant installed, will be completely safe. The windowed wall around the pool adds much to the beauty of the place, and will cut off the cool breezes which would discomfort bathers during the late afternoon and evening. even-ing. The new dressing rooms are spacious and adequate. Our hats go off and up to Scera. They've done it again! GLAMOURIZED DRINKING Have you been to a movie lately? If so, you probably know the meaning of "glamourized drinking." You hear ads on the air for alcohol and see them on billboards. Naturally, liquor companies pay for these. But the most effective campaign for the drinking of liquor is carried on free of charge. In a very large percentage of movies, you see a businessman busin-essman come home, and in very plush surroundings such as a beautiful den, he makes a cocktail with hvs beautiful equipment. Does this strengthen the plot? Does this make him any more of a hero ? You often see, in these movies, drunkenness treated very lightly. Does this bring the approval of the audience? aud-ience? When youths see everyone holding some kind of a cocktail at a gay movie party, they are bound to think, "That looks like fun there doesn't seem to be any harm in it." Why is it necessary for Hollywood to carry on this campaign for liquor? The answer is there is absolutely no reason. It gives many people reason not to attend movies at all, and certainly lends a helping hand to corrupting cor-rupting the youth of America. San Dune, (Junior high school paper) Muskegon, Mich.

TAX CONCEPT SERIES Remember, all figures given herein, in previous and succed-ing succed-ing parts of this work constitute a debt that you and your children, child-ren, unto the third and fourth generation, will be paying on, plus the accumulating interest charges, so try to visualize what they mean. The Federal Expenses will run in excess of $42,000,000,000 for the fiscal year of 1950. What is a billion dollars? Look at It this way a .million dollars dol-lars equals 1,000 thousand dollars dol-lars and a billion dollars is 1,000 million dollars. So the congress of this country has appropriated appropriat-ed 42 thousand million dollars of the taxpayers money to run (ruin) our country tor tne coming com-ing 12 months- This amounts to a per capita tax of $300.00 or if you are a family of four you will pay $1,200 00 this year for the priv-iledge priv-iledge of living in this country, or as a penalty for the negligence negli-gence of all individuals for not exercising their sovereign rights to stop this robbery by taxation. Forty-two thousand million dollars is more than the value of all the gold mined in the world since Christopher Columbus Colum-bus discovered America In 1492. The entire business of our Government could have been easily handled for the year of 1950 on 60 percent of the amount that is to be used, or, instead of 42 billion dollars, the necessary activities could have been handled for 25.2 billion dollars- A saving to the taxpayer of 16-8 billion, or put it this way a saving of $120.00 per each person, per-son, man woman and child, in the United States for the year of 1950. Don't laugh this off by saying you don't pay that much tax. THESE MEN HAD THIS TO SAY: "No person in the United States need fear our i afcainst burglary unless he is a burglar or is oLr ready to commit burglary. By the same token r. ?n? need fear this (Atlantic Pact) treaty unless it ia J, ning an aggressive act or has aggressive designs heart." SENATOR TOM CONNALLY of Texas. lts "I do not recollect that any civilization ever dph v from an attack of doubt. I recollect that civiB usually die through the ossification of their trariitii01 faith " JOSE OREGA, Spanish philosopherS? er-statesman, at Goethe Festival held at Aspen, Colo "I condemn and denounce an action that in the nam of defending American democracy has made so man teachers fearful to speak their own minds. . jplj ROSE V. RUSSELL at national convention of Nation! Education association. "The administration has nothing but the old nn. primer answer to any recession in business." SEwvprm BREWSTER, R-Maine. "Some Republicans are whooping it up for a depression because they think it would make a nice political iwm i 1950." SENATOR McGRATH, D-Rhode Island. "If this treaty (Atlantic Pact) is beaten, or if its great meaning is befogfced by reservations seeming t proceed from fear, we shall not soon be able to repair tn damage." HENRY L. STIMSON, former Secretary of War. "The principal method of working people to better themselves is through unions, the search for improved conditions and the establishment of socialism. This movement may be considered the modern expression nt pioneering." DANTEL EOONE SCHIRMER, educational director of the Massachusetts Communist party, testifying test-ifying at the communist conspiracy trial. "Within the circle of (Russia's) control today, tensions ten-sions and conflicts appear to be increasing. It may have temporary triumphs, but in the long run it must either destroy itself, or abandon its attempt to force other nations to its pattern." PRESIDENT TRUMAN at national nat-ional convention of Shriners at Chicago. No- Don't laugh, for you pay it both directly and indirectly, especially es-pecially as all previous taxes levied on any article you buy are included in the price of the article. The ultimate buyer pays all taxes on every item that is taxed,, tax-ed,, and, there is no known item in our commerce that is not taxed tax-ed to the limit, "and beyond the limit", before you buy it. Then to make everything per-feet per-feet your State asks for two percent more when you buy it.
