We know, of course, many people had literal axes to grind with Chief DeLand. For every crime he solved or action he took reflecting well on his department, there was in which someone became an opprobably a counter-actio- n his. Police work, if it is performed properly, is no ponent of bed of roses. It was our experience that Lloyd DeLand was no one to shirk a duty of his office, no matter how unpleasant it might be. Generally, businessmen of the city had high regard for his methods. On many occasions, he went out of his way to help recover funds lost through a bogus check. And even his opponents admit he had a knack for finding such offenders. He was a helpful gent, too, in apprehending shoplifters, with which some of our stores are plagued. The respect acis a factor in corded him and his officers by our our city's quite respectable record in connection with juvenile It The Man Who Always Comes To Dinner is Auociatlons ALL? ... Service Areas Mean Improvements Costing Less Than The Metro Plan M0M (Jay Godfrey in the Midvale Sentinel) The formation of "service areas" in South Salt Lake County can be attributed directly to the campaign waged a year ago to create a "metropolitan government" in the county, and the service areas may be potent enough to discourage further serious consideration of the "metropolitan" area J.

All are members to be urged and present their bring children. In vi good lob?" Here are some of their answers: "First of all, to enjoy (A) your job, you've got to enjoy the kind of work you're doing. You've got to feel that you're accomplishing something or you won't be satisfied very long. The amount of money you earn means alot, but unless you get some satisfaction out of your Job you won't stay with it" (B) "I think the most important thing necessary for making a Job enjoyable is to realize that you are serving in an important, as well as a useful, capacity. Then your Job will be interesting enough that you will do it with enthusiasm and efficiency." Note the phrases: ''You've got to feel that you're accomplishing something . . . serving in an important, as well as useful, capacity." This would seem to bear out the psychologists contention that people want recognition and a sense of participation. - H A' s- faU k,J a ll 1 - A A 1 n n tn Santa Claus there will he n Peters. -- F.d.i Initiated into the Eagles last . meeting was Jay Bowen, proprietor of the Dairy Queen at 4980 South State.

Par-ris- rd 1 One of the subjects which the public press usually handles rather tenderly is that of the Union situation in this country. Though many publications abhore the things which have taken place withm the ranks of organized labor in recent years, they tend to politely ignore them rather than give the impression they're trying to run a spear through the ribs of the average working man. We don t look at it that way. We think the average member of the Teamster's union, for instance, was as shocked as we outside the ranks when that organization went through the mockery of an election and elevated Jimmy Hoffa to its top spot earlier this year. And we sincerely believe that same average member silently applauded, though he was certainly disappointed at the booted the Teamsters out of its loss, when the AFofL-CIdomain because it had so much corruption in its official ranks. There is strength in numbers, everyone admits, and the loss of the support of the AFofL and the CIO was something not to be taken lightly by Teamster members.

As to the reason for DeLand's resignation, the Eagle has no particular comment. He explained to us that he felt it was for the good of the department and, afterweighing the circumstances, thought it best to resign now, effective with the entry of the new administration on Jan. 6th. resident of our city, paid One businessman, a long-tim- e high tribute to the outgoing chief with this statement: "I've lived here more than 40 years. Shine has done the most capable job of any police chief we've ever had." That statement should provide ample eulogy for a man who did his job to the best of his ability, made of the Murray Police Department a force to be commended and now moves on to what we're sure Murrayites hope will be another task worthy of his calibre. a little, lost a mills on the taxes is tiny compared to what their cost would have been as a part of the metropolitan area. It also indicates rather plainly how big a tempest can be stirred up in a small teapot. It seems illogical, at this point, that men possessing the stature of those who proposed and supported the "metropolitan" idea should spend such vast sums of money (it cost the state $25,000 as a starter), stir up so many people, and cause so much ill feeling among their neighbors, for !6 mills on their taxes. And, the way it works out, Salt Lake taxpayers won't save any money at all. For the county commissioners will not be able to reduce the general tax levy any, and may even raise the levy. They will simply spend the money on services from which all of the taxpayers benefit. The law, by the way, leaves the people in unincorporated areas little choice. They have the right to protest, that is of the citizens protest, the service area is true. If The inoperative. people can save V2 mills on their taxes, and the county will not be permitted to furnish fire protection or garbage collection. It is evident, therefore, that protest is futile. It is unthinkable that anyone would ask to have the fire department discontinued, and garbage piles up awfully fast if the white trucks don't come around on schedule and pick it up. With this change, we earnestly hope that the visionary theorists who concocted the "metropolitan" plan have had their vanity appeased sufficiently so that they will abandon further efforts to enact their unfair proposals into law.
