Locally there is every reason to believe an organization will soon evolve which will be in definite opposi- tion. It is only natural that such should be the case. In a blundering manner, creators of the Local Government Survey in the state attempted to force their recommendations on the people. They may have thought they were doing a favor. But people are human and they don't like to have such things as their government and their city services tampered with. Consequently, the commission might just as well have poked a stick into a hornets and nest.

When we bald our visit to the Youngs, the first thing we notic ed upon entering their lovely home were several frames of arrowheads, beautifully arranged and adorning a wall. They held arrowheads from many Indian tribes: The Net Perce, Shoshonl, Ute, Palute, and Attec. We had always believed that all arrowheads were fashioned of flint. But, Included In the display were some of agate, chlrt, petrified wood, and steel. The steel ones were sold to the Indians by White traders, we learned. Next, we were shown containers In which were other arrowheads, crude eating utensils, crude tools fashioned from bone and figures of animals.

With considerable emphasis being placed these days on tolerance of minority races, colors and creeds, perhaps this significant story we recently read evidences the true spirit of the thing: Lady Tree Wilford Withcrspoon was a patriotic English woman. And, she liked Americans. She wanted her people to better understand them. To help along the cause, she thought it would be a good idea if she would invite a few American soldiers from the nearby Army base in for tea . . . just so they could get better acquainted with her people, and so the Britisher would better understand young America. One day she called up the battalion headquarters and spoke to the lieutenant in charge. "I wonder if it would be possible," Lady Withcrspoon began, "to have six of your tallest, finest, straightest soldiers over to Withcrspoon I Icignts tomorrow at 4 for tea?" After explaining to the lieutenant that RATES $2.00. Don R. Once we vote in favor of this plan, we arc saddled forever with a government that may not turn out to be to our advantage. On the other hand, defeating it once will not mean it won't come up again and again, for like most sweeping social reforms, this one has backers with capitalization, influence and determination. Never underestimate their strength in the battle Nontheless, the recommendations still contain a clause which is a hot potato. That has to do with the manner in which the public will decide whether or not it wants SUBSCRIPTION J. M. Cornwell, Editor and every segment should participate in one vote. Which would simply mean that Salt Lake City, much in need of funds with which to pull its ailing government out of the red, might vote almost unanimously in favor. And the urban areas, wanting no part of such an inefficient governmental scheme, might vote just as unanimously in opposition but still be defeated by sheer strength of numbers. A surprising portion of the suburban population moved out of Salt Lake to get awav from its many flaws and have no intention of voting themselves back into the mess. But in days to come more and more pressure will be exerted, more and more propaganda distributed and more and more minds influenced in an effort to prepare the people for an almost inevitable ballot. We hope the thinking segment of our populace will carefully study what is presented to them, search out its flaws and carefully weigh benefit against detriment before they make a final decision. scheme.
