It is rather hard to arrive at any conclusions from the list, because of the fact that a misinterpretation of the law last spring resulted in the incorrect delinquent date of Dec, 20 being printed on the tax notices. Many of the taxpayers, seeing this date, did not get their taxes paid by the correct date of November 30th, or in time to have their properties excluded from the list, and were therefore included even though they may have their taxes paid by the later date. In spite of this circumstance the list shows that there is still a heavy delinquency in tax payment in the county. And one also surmises from studying the list that there are still a large number of taxpayers who unnecessarily are letting their taxes become delinquent with the express purpose of later getting a reduction from the county commissioners for payment. The policy of the commissioners in this respect has tightened up considerably lately, but still seems to be lenient enough to encourage the practice. Just where the borderline on tax adjustment runs is pretty hard for any group of men to decide, for a flat refusal to make any adjustments might create an actual and unjust discrimination, but we are sure it is a step in the right direction to cut down these adjustments, especially on delinquent taxes, sufficiently to discourage letting them become delinquent for that reason alone. There shuold be a penalty against delinquent taxes, and unless that penalty is rigidly imposed the discrimination is all against the honest and prompt taxpayer. IMPATIENT FOR A SECOND SERVING The Salt Lake Tribune of Dec. 12, credits W. D. Hammond, chairman of the Utah state road commission with announcing that The Utah state road commission agrees as a matter of general policy that the time has come to return to the center of population and start improving and rebuilding the heavily-travelearteries, working gradually outward to the borders of the state. This announcement came, it seems in response to pressure by the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce for the expenditure of more road funds in Salt Lake City and other popular centers. The theory behind the policy seems to be that the state has now completed its work in outlying districts and will begin an extensive widening and" improvement policy, starting at the state capitol and retracing its steps from the center outward over the entire system. We realize of course that the first roads constructed were built to an early day standard and that they do not compare with roads'of present-dastandards such as the newly finished sections of highway 10 through the Basin and in Strawberry valley, and we believe the entire state ill be in accord with the policy of bringing the earlier constructed high- one-thir- - d y er is w Professional Cards tints Legal Advertising Myton News Roy A.

Especially are we in the Basin interested in this improvement in Parley and Daniels canyons. e must remind the state road commission, and the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce, however, that highway 40 is not yet completed, and that until it is all efforts cannot be justifyably centered in and around Salt Lake County. There are of our highway, at the head of Daniels canyon, the head of Deep crock, and the Currant creek crossing, which were skipped in the construction just completed, and have been camouflaged with an oil mat of a very temporary nature. This surfacing will not hold up under the heavy traffic highway 40 is due to receive in the future; in fact it is already breaking down in some places, and will need early attention. It is understood that the three short sections mentioned entail heavy expenditures for construction, and that they were skipped for this reason. We are not complaining over this policy, but we can and must insist that at least one of these spots be placed on the program for completion each year until they are taken care of. Not until they are properly improved can the road commission truthfully say that they have taken care of the outlying districts and start concentrating their full efforts on the centralized program. No doubt the Salt Lake City people are becoming impatient while this outlying work is being completed, but they must consider the years of patient have gone through, before waiting the the original construction program reached them. It is still impolite to demand a second helping before everyone has had the first serving. ? MERRIL H. LARSEN, Attorney for Plaintiff. Duchesne, Utah. Date of first publication, November 24, 1939.
