Entered as second class matter November 19, 1944 at the postoffice at Orem, Utah,, under the act of March 3, 1837. Member: Utah State Press Association NationEl Editorial Association Subscription Rates: One year, in advance $3.00 THERE ARE TWO ROADS TO ECONOMY There are mixed opinions among our local citizenry citiz-enry as to whether the recent city ordinance, passed by the Orem City Council, which decreased the salaries of the mayor and cbuncilmen to $600 and $400 each, respectively, res-pectively, is a good step in the direction of better municipal mu-nicipal government. I In taking a stand on this controversy we wish to establish es-tablish our confidence in the Orem City Council and Mayor Ray Loveless. Their recent decision regarding the reduction of salaries was certainly taen in the spirit spir-it of economy and after much deliberation and study. Although we do not share their views 100 percent, nevertheless we commend them for their conscientious efforts. We cannot with certainty foresee at this time what the results of , any piece of legislation will be one year or more hence. Their decisions could prove to be more productive and beneficial than those advocated in our editorial of last week. However, our present contention still remains, that there are sometimes two routes which may be taken to arrive at this station called economy. We strongly feel that in paying a substantial salary sal-ary for our mayor, touncilmen and our new city mau-ager-to-be is a good measure in achieving economy. With adequate salaries our city will be served by public ser vants who will devote more energy and time in performing perform-ing municipal duties. The result will be increased prod-' prod-' uctive capacity in all city departmental functions. Turnover Turn-over of our public servants will also be reduced. In this way the public welfare will be better promoted at a Kst which will not be excessive when comparing the accomplishments accom-plishments with the means. Time will record the worthiness of the two roads to economy as cited. In the meantime we will support our city council and mayor in the conscientious decision decis-ion they have rendered and wish them success in the fruits of their labors. cout'mg creen From Here to Eternity Non-1 commissioned officers' brutal hazing of stubborn private dominates dom-inates competently made adap-" adap-" tion of James Jones Army novel nov-el which, despite toning down, entails violence,, drunkenness, and illicit romance.

Now serving his sixth year as Fire Chief of the Orem Volunteer Fire Department is Scott Thomp son, veteran of the Provo Fire Department where he served for 20 years. The Chief and the volunteer force have rendered a valiant public service in reducing fire losses in our city which, ranks among the lowest in state. Scott was appointed local fire chief in 1947. The year 0f 1948 is the memorable memor-able year for Scott, however, This was the year that he and his department issued more propa ganda via the press, leaflets and handbills urging local citizens to be fire safetly conscious. But the whole campaign ironically backfired as Orem had more fires that year than any year SEE OUR CHRISTMAS ALBUMS X SUPPLY CO, I . 83 No, Univ. Ave Provo HHAA A A A A A A A before or after. The total fire loss in 1948 was $170,000. The Chief has been mighty cautious of safety saf-ety campaigns ever since. Scott was born in Provo here he attended public schools. In addition to serving on the Provo Fire Department force, he was an employee of the Provo City Roads and Water department for seven years. He also was engag ed in building construction and contracting for a number of years He is married to the former Gladys Baker of Provo. They have had nine children, five of whom are still living. Scott is a member of the Vermont LDS Ward. Eligible for retirement, Scott says, "I can retire anytime, but I might as well keep going." Looking to the future the Chief recommends that Orem City increase in-crease their water pressure and produce new water supplies which will reduce the city's high fire Insurance rates which are set by the National Board of Fire Un derwriters. When Scott is not busy with fire department chores he spends many hours each week caring for the grounds around the city hall and especially the flower beds which have made our city park distinctive. The dazzling display of Christmas lights that adorns the many pine trees of the park during the holiday season also may be attributed to the efforts of our fire chief. Orem is fortun ate to have a fire"" chief whose interests go beyond the normal call of duty. v ,,;, NATIONAL GUARD Commanding (juicer in jiUb peter A.

My problem is how can I discontinue dating A and start dating B while not causing friction between A and B, and also retain A's respect towards me? Please advise.

Inasmuch as you are just dating the young lady, things have not become too serious yet, I hope. You could be very busy some night soon and let her know you can't keep your date.
