NEWS VIA RADIO Election results, national, state and local, will be "covered" by a nationwide network of the National Broadcasting Company and associated stations, It was announced recently. An elaborate plan of radio reportIng has been arranged. Results of the presidential and congressional elections will be broadcast from the NBC studios in New York. This program will, however, be occasionally interrupted for announcement of results of state, county and municipal election news, !rom each ot the various stations. The national election news will be furnished to the radio audience thru the courtesy of The Associated Press, the United Press Association and the International News Service. A large staff of political experts, experienced in compiling, collating and presenting election results, will be in charge of news dissemination by the Naponal Broadcasting Company. The program will be interspersed with a gala presentation of music and other entertainment by popular artists with Graham McNamee fY master of ceremonies. Reporting of the election returns is exP,ected to begin at seven o'clock Eastern ,Standard Time. It will continue until final results of all the important political races have been determined. ''The National Broadcasting Company has arranged to present national election returns for the first time over a nation-wide hook-up," said M. H. Aylesworth, president of the company. "We are preparing to broadcast elec tion returns in an interesting and intelligible manner. The old methods of shouting news bulletins through the megaphone, or showing them on lantern slides were not only limited as to audience, but virtually meaningless as to text. "We propose to confine our election returns to such news as Is indicative, and to present it in jUCh form as to be readily understandable. In so doIng, the National Broadcasting Company aims to add to its record of public service. "We have arranged for the editing and presentation of the reports o~ The Associated Press, United Press Association ll'D.d the International News Service by persons experienced in handling election news and familiar with the technique o! broadcasting." Through the coast-to-coast network of stations associated in the election night broadcast, it is . expected that virtually every important election result in the oountry will be made known to those interested. It Is prob!1-ble that a plan may be arranged so that each of the stations will undertake to cover definite areas In its vi· clnlty. Such matter will be broad! cast in the intervals during which the chain program Is interrupted. MIDDLETON-MINES RECEPTION Mr. and Mrs. Richard F.

Dear Sir: As the Pre•ldential election draws near and the voter. are uked to make their choice for President !or the next tour years we are of the opinion that America'• Humorlat Philosopher, Will Roarera hu made a &Teat mistake In not orcaniJ:tO£" and campalplnar on an anti-bunk ticket. Hla election ne;a;t Tuesday would be a.uured. Poated coDl!~cuously In many and varlou• placea in and around Midvale appears the picture• ol two candidate• aeeklne- offtce from the voters of Utah, one u United Senator and the other u Governor of thia State under the elo&-an, ":!meet to Protect Utah'• lnduatrlM." We haTe llere In Midvale a •teel plant that u capable of •upplylne- this State• needa except that of the heaviest e-rade of iron and 1teel products and if the local plant would receive the orders for 1teel and 1teel products that the local concern can produce, trom the Yery men and Interest• who continually adyocate the purchale and use of Utah made coodl the local plant would be In continuoUI operation the whole year around, employIng aome three or four hundred men at good wa&'ell. Thl• Ia what Midvale really needs, 1omethin&" which would not only benefit lofidyale but Utah as a whole. Both the candidate~ referred to above are at1lliated with enterpri1e1 in this !!tate which would perhaps absorb all the steel and 1teel products that the local plant could produce yet the Midvale concern ill ignored in favor of Pittsburg( Calif., and Pueblo, Colorado. Doe!! not the !!logan "Elect to Protect Utah's Industries" appear rather inconsistant to the two candidates? As a remedy perhaps a campaign to "Introduce Utah's Industries to Utahns" after the present campaign is over would help some. (Signed) A Booster for Utah's Industries. EAST JORDAN STAKE Wednesday evenin&", October 31, at the Midvale school house, the Jor~an District Council of Boy Scouts met in their re&"uiar monthly meeting to discuss the Scouting program.

In line with the comment appearing last week in The Midvale Journal, we feel justified In reprinting another edt· torial from the Provo Evenin&" Herald. Outside concerns are attemptin&' to sign up :!!alt Lake County farmen for the 1929-30-31 output of beets. There appears to be no advance In price per ton. In fact, we have been unable to find any advanta&"e the outside concern offen over the local BU&"• ar companie!!, And the situation discloses a parallel condition elti!!tin&" In Utah county. It we were called upon to write an editorial concerning thi1 question, we would insert Salt Lake County in the stead of Utah county and the Provo Evening Herald's editorial ats to a T. ·We ask the beet growers of Salt Lake County to read carefully this editorial following and consider well the advantages and disadvantae-es before signing to ship beets out o! Salt Lake county. You will do yourself an injustice. You may gratify a &TUd&'e but you will be money out of pocket, In the end. There are many thlnp to consider besides the actual prl~ per ton for the beets. Please read the following editorial I RUMOR SAYS COUNTY MAY LOSE SUGAR PLAN'r (Editorial) Is Utah county to lo&e ita sugar factories? Are the augar plants to be dlsman• tied and the machin~ry 1ent to other counties or states where better cooperation may be obtained from the growers? The an~wers to these que1tiona are entirely in the hand.li of the farmen of Utah county. It 1• for them to decide whether or not the •U&"ar beet I.D· dustry in this county ia to surnve. Farmers, individually and coUec· tively, should carefully ponder over the!!e questions. The solution 111 vital to the welfare of the entire county, tl.rst to the farmers and then to labor and business. In a day when "COOPERATION" is the slogan of the awakened tillers of the soil, it seems strange there should be 'a necessity to remind them cooperation is needed between the grower and the sugar companies represented in the county with one or more plants. Why Utah county farmer• should contract beets "With concerns who ship these beets out of the county, while two or three plants in our own nelarh· borhood stand Idle is beyond under1'1tanding, especially in view of the fact that the ultimate price paid b7 the competing concern~ to the beet growers is identical. Eventually, beets sold to Utah county factories bring far more money to this section than those sold to outside concern!!. Beets shipped out of Utah county give no employment to Utah county labor. They establllh no payroll in Utah county. They mov• no wlleels In Utah county plants. They do not, when refined, add to the tax fund of Utah County. There are tour sugar factorle~ and two slicers In Utah county at pre~ent. When enough beets are raised to keep all of these plants busy they give em· ployment to approximately 1000 men during the campaign. They expend tor labor and material more than $300 000. All of the factories and slicers are located In the heart of the !armIng section of the county. The labor employed comes from the immediate vicinity of the plants. The workers, In many instances, are the sons of the farmers who grow the beets. The money expended by the plants stays right in the county. "Charity begins at home.'' Let Ul see to it that our own have work be· fore we provide employment !or our neighbors. (Continued on Page Ten) FORD MOTOR HAS SERVICE PLAN Absolute uniformity of sel'Yice on the new Ford Model "A" cars and Model !'AA" trucks is being maintained by the Ford Motor Company through a plan which involves the training, in the Ford plants, of ten thousand garage mechanics. The Ford branch plants, and the Detroit factories have assumed the character of a gigantic training school, to which every Ford dealer In the United States Is sending one or more representatives. This school for service men began with the training of superlntendenta and foremen of the thirty-six branch plants o! the company in the United States. Before the Model "A:' Ford car was Introduced, these men !rom the branch plants were being schooled In the Ford factories near Detroit In the manufacture and assembly of the new car. They returned to the thirtysix Ford branches and immediately began the training of men !or dealel'IS 1n their respective territories• |
