And if a newspaper is not good enough to get a reasonable amount of advertising, let it go on the junk pile. Such is life.

As a result, world production of the metal waa 14 per cent less in 1930 than in 1929. However, the favorable results of this more than offset by an increase in surplus stocks on hand. As a consequence, the price of the metal rapidly declined, reaching, on several occasions, less than ten cents per pound, the lowest level in many decades.

Any legislation of this kind is sure to receive the cordial and unselfish applause of newspapers. It is a great thing to be At certain places there are valid objections to outdoor advertising. Whenever it dangerously obstructs the view of motorists it should be removed. It should never De allowed to interfere with safety; but there should be equal diligence in attacking any other phenomenon that interferes with safety. Again, outdoor advertising may be objectionable for aesthetic reas- one; a noble landscape may be .spoiled by an advertisement of somebody's socks. But let it be ob- served that not all landscapes are noble, and that sometimes an ad- vertisement of somebody's socks mav be easy on the eyes. This is a fact overlooked by people who are aesthetically illiterate; being themselves incapable of forming an aesthetic judgment, they accept the castMron doctrine that nature is wonderful and all outdoor advertising is vulgar. And even when outdoor advertising actually impairs a scene, it may well be asked whether the government ought to interfere. There are numberless other things which are repugnant to civilized people; the majority of our buildings would have to be demolished if aesthetics were given a free hand. Life would be decidedly interesting for a while if Mr. Frank Lloyd Wright, who is probably the greatest architect in the world, were granted absolute authority to do what he would with existent types of architecture. But in fact neither the people of the United States as a whole nor those of any state are particularly aesthetic; even the members of women's clubs are deotherwise ficient in this respect they could not endure the horrible papers they placidly hear read at their meetings. Many of these are indictments of outdoor advertising; for the notion has been , iqeciulously cultivated that outdoor advertising is not quite nice.

A more normal consumption of the metal is being reached, and price fluctuations are less violent. A new spirit of cooperation among producers is paving the way to a return to stability. When that is achieved, it will be a great day for many western states.

Court News Japan Sees Niagara Senator Borah, who observes, as you do. that the low price of silver has cut in two the purchasing power of human beings, half the world's population, says something should be done for silver. As far as purchases from us are concerned, silver's drop has not cut the purchasing power of Asia and other countries In half. It has cut down purchases 90 per cent The first half of their spending power men need for absolute necessaries, food, lodging. The second half buys luxuries and machinery. The low price of silver, in addition to halving the purchasing power of 800.000,000 people, has doubled the nanational debt of the silver-usintions. They must pay in gold, and need twice as much silver to do that... Something should be done for silver, and probably must be done before prosperity really comes back. A metal that has been "good money" all over the world for five thousand years can not suddenly be throwninto the dis card without economic suffering. The question is what can you do for silver and how can you do it? g Some time ago you read in this column about the Japanese buying a year's supply of oil for their navy. The United States oil wells supplied the oil cheaper than Uncle Sam had ever been able to buy It. And the oil was sold by the Intelligent Sir Henri Deterdlng, head of the Shell Oil Company. Thus Japan got cheap oil, a British company got the profit, and American oil wells were depleted by so many million barrels. Last week Uncle Sam needed 4,620,-00- 0 barrels of "bunker fuel oil" for Navy yards and stations on the West Coast. Who, do you suppose, sold the oil to Uncle Sam? None other than the same energetic Sir Henri Deterdlng. He sold the oil, his British-owne' company made the profit. Uncle Sam, buying Incidentally, United States oil for his own Navy, paid Sir Henri a great deal more than Japan paid Sir Henri for the same American oil, delivered, like Uncle Sam's oil, on the West Coast This may make you smile. And it may not.

Strange things happen, and even the "Old Lady of Threadneedle Street" is compelled to follow in Wall Street's ouu and contract truck lines, be placed under the same restrictions and the same rules be applied to them as to rail carriers. Railroads are still the backbone of the transportation business and the country could not do without them. In case of war or other disaster the are very essential, in fact indispen-sibl- e to this country. It is apparent even to the most cas ual observer that something must be done in fairness to the railroads with relation to transportation. Every resi dent of Box Elder County knows, or should know, the vast amount of tax es that are paid by the railroads that run throueh it. which approximately is 50 per cent and that for the people to assume a burden of an increased taxation of 50 per cent, if railroads were eliminated or the valuation decreased to a point where it would be necessary to increase the taxes of the people 25 per cent or more, would bring a realization of the important part railroads play in the economic structure as well as the progress of the country. The merchant and the farmer may sidestep the railroad, in the trans portation of the products of the farm of the manufactured articles, in preference for the truck, if he chooses and can justify himself if he does not live in Box Elder county but to the man in this county that would do, or advocate such a thing it would seem is blind to his own interest. Press dispatches from different parts of the state show that commercial, Lions, and other service clubs have awakened to the seriousness of the situation and have pledged themselves to the patronage of the railroads and to stand for a square deal in the matter of competition.
