Utah aa aecond class mall matter under the Act of Congress of March 3. 1879 A. B. OIBSOM ROY E. GIBSON Editor and Manager Associate Editor STATE REORGANIZATION A hopeful step la taken by the Utah legislature In calling for an exaustive atudy of atate governmental functions. This action, approved by both the senate and house, contemplates that constructive economy Is possible. It la also an outgrowth of demands for tax reductions, which can be accomplished only by finding ways and means of reducing the cost of government. Much has been The urge for thrift in government Is nation-wid- e. said on this question that will not be supported by facts. Opinions on this vital problem are as varied as the schools of political and economic thought. Conservative citizens approach the task with the welfare of the atate and Its citizen at heart. Temporary reiier has been demonstrated to be more or less in the nature of deception. In fact, It fools even the authors of these panaceas. Oovemor Blood called attention to the pressing need for retrenchment and stressed that In order for public officials to curtail expense, the people whom they serve must refrain from requesting too much from their government. Numerous departments are the direct growth of a public demand for certain benefits which govenment can provide. Revenue from taxation Is the only source from which these activities can obtain the means with which to function. Private business, the individual citizen, and institutions confront a similar situation. It has been necessary for all of these to examine their own affairs, revise their programs, stretch the buying power of the dollar, and to promote efficiency with the ultimate goal of economy kept in mind. So with the state. Before applying the pruning knife ruthlessly to the public business It is desirable to know where this process will lead us. The legialaure has committee to Investigate all departkept this In mind, when It directs a to summon witnesses and requisition ments and empowers this committee public records for its information.

Lake Tribune. Salt FEAR NOT America's slogan for 1933 ought to be "Pear Not". That was the message of the angel who annouced the birth of Jesus to the shepherds or Beuue-heand the message brought comfort hope and Inspiration to the world. In this time of economic stress, we need the same message of reassurance and courage. We do well to remember that the resources of the country are not and empared. Crops are abundant northe Industrial output is nearly mal.' The problem for America genius Is to find a way to bridge the gap between production and consumption and we ought to belm ieve that American genius is equal to the task. There Is not only a latent consuming capacity for what we produce from factory and farm, but an accumulated need due to limited buying In the last four years. We ought to shake off the menace of fear and enter into the year of 1933 with hope and determination. That attitude will help restore confidance and gradually bring and prosperity. We have learned many things from the experiences that we have had since 1929, and those lessons should form the basis of a sounder and saner growth for the future. We shall never go forward however, as long as we are afraid. Let us face the future In the spirit of that Christmas mesage of old, "FEAR NOT". Riverside (Calif) Dally Press o The Welfare of Agriculture .The Welfare of agriculture "... even though it be the nation's basic Industry, cannot safely be trusted by those engaged in it. to the public at large, to politicians, or to public officials," says H. E. recently. ". . . .This situation demands organization on the part of farmers. The most Important force in agriculture is education. I would put importance of education ahead even of organization were there not signs on every hand that unless farmers are organized forst. they will not be able to protect the efective-nes- s of aglrcultural education.' The cooperative movement is, Indeed, one form of farm education. It teaches agriculture the modern means of stabilizing itself and of laying a foundation for a sound, Bab-co- ck "... prosperous and progresive future. It is the greatest weapon the farmer Individually or In the mass, has In the war against the chaotic markets and ruinous prices. HOPES FOR SILVER Renewed Interest in the silver problem, as reflected In remarks projected into debates In both houses of congress, momentum. Is an encouraging sign. It presages, perhaps, that silver ultimately will be given the consideration which Is due, not because there appears no better way of restoring order to the economic system.

The fact of the matter Is that the public officials cannot much longer dally with the economic crisis. Silver long has been stressed as a logical aid to gold in the world monetary systems, for the specific purposes of conserving! the gold standard and elevating the level of commodity prices. There has been a stern Indifference to the silver plea, chiefly on the part of those who feel it would have no adverse effect on gold. Meanwhile no other tangible program has been provided.. The more or less obvious result is that the country is still primarwith emergency ily concerned measurers, while the permanent remedy is abondoned to international conferences and future discussions. It, no doubt, is this situation which prompts Senator Borah of Idaho to declare Intention to Introduce a bill in congress designed to make the dollar buy less. is Information While detailed withheld, (there Is an Indication that the Idaho solon contemplates remonetization of silver as a means to an end. Cheapening the dollar Is Just a means of raising the commodity price level and restoring the functions of money. Under existing conditions, money hfyi become a cherished commodity and ceased to function as a circulating medium for the world's wealth. As a result of this, material production Is with out profit, and want and privation stalk the world. By broadening the money base with silver, we would start the sycle which would ultimately restore order to our economic system. There can be no revovery win profitless industry and there can be no profitable industry without monetary values whldh, are commensurate with constructive well-beate- n By REG Well, fans, here we go for the third year of Baskut Bawl.

Pay soi high, Tlntic high, Sprlngvllle high and Spanish Pork high. The writer will also try to cover local M Men games and rewrite the yarns of the Salt Lake papers on the college games which are of interest to the fans of Nephi and surrouning towns. If you missed the league debut of the Nephi team, you missed seeing some swell playing. The fellows look like they will again get toward the top end of the percentage column this year. Nephl's team this year Is led by Jack Brough, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Brough. Where Jack gets his basketball ability Is still a mystery, but he surely has it to the "eenth" degree. Jack counted eleven points n in the game Friday evening. Juab-Payso- Note During the season, the writer will use Nephi high once in a while, and fill in the remainder of the time with Juab high. In this way, we'll attempt to secure satisfaction from both the Alumni members and the present supporters of "Juab". Johnny Leavltt is so darn short that he plays next to the floor. He usually manages to get under the tall opponents without much grief (for himself) but missed his mark by about two Inches in the Payson game. We don't know whether it was a foot or a fist, but anyway ' Johnny suffered a cut over the left eye. We can't even blame this black eye on his girlfriend. Sinkln' 'em from over his head backwards seems to be becoming a favorite trick of Don Whipple. Don played a nice game Friday night, managing to "flop" four counters In the basket for a total of eight points. Cleo Petty made good last weekend again, when he scored ten points Friday night and eight points on Saturday night in two games for( the U. S. A. C against Montana State College. By virtue of the two wins, the A. C. is leading the western division of the Rocky Mountain Conference. For the past seven seasons of basketball, Nephi has had a representative on the A. C. squad. Back In 1926, Glen Worthington made the team and All conference center. He was followed by Carl Belllston and Carl has left his port to Cleo Petty. Who says Nephi doesnt grow talent? The Tlntic high school Miners at Eureka will be hosts to the J. H. S. team tomorrow night. The score well, we'll be able to say something definite next week. Predictions will be left to "Hit and Miss" of the Deseret News.

It Is encouraging to find congress men thinking about silver, because It is reflective of desire to find the remedy for economic Ills.

Although actual im provement In values has not been great so far this year, close Stud ents of the trade are of the opinion that the next few weeks may wit' ness substantial gains, especially in the case of steers. Cows have been selling very close to steer prices, much closer than might normally be expected. Those who are looking for better prices point to the fact that feedlots within normal shipping distance of Los Angeles are pretty well drained which means that Los Angeles pack ers must go farther east for addlt tonal supplies. The Intermountaln country may be expected to con tinue to ship fair numbers of cat tle to the Pacific Coast, although it Is generally admitted that supp lies are smaller than normal. In the face of Increased slaughter and beef consumption. At present, cows and heifers are selling at prices relatively higher than at Missouri River Markets, giving Nebraska, Colorado and Texas cattlemen a relatively higher market for their shestock, rather than could be had by shipping to the Missouri River market. Now the country generally shipping to Los Angeles Is running short on steers. and In the opinion of trade observers competition for supplies may tend to strengthen steer values.
