Stats Planning ' New Office Buildings A million dollar office building scheduled for location on the Capitol grounds is being planned by Secretary of State E. E. Monson, and A. B. Paulson, architect, designated the State toy Building Board to draw up preliminary plans. It is proposed to place the new building in the northeast end of the grounds on an eminence overlooking Memory Grove. It is expected that preliminary plans will be ready for presentation to the 1947 State Legislature. To Fight Habitual Criminalism A new law, one to curb the habitual criminal has been recommended to Attorney General Grover A. Giles by Brigham E. Roberts, Third District Attorney in his biennial report to the state. The new law would be foolproof and would force old offenders to serve commensurate tune for their and experiences death for convicts serving life Maximum sentences who assault prison guards. Attorney Roberts pointed out the need for such legislation in view of the tact that the State Supreme Court has so construed the habitual criminal statute as to make It absolutely valueless in. the persecution of cnmlnal cases, and also has Made ineffective the statute Making it an offense for a life convict to assaut a prison Ogden Livestock Show Set For November 2 to 6 The value of the Ogden Livestock Shows to Utah producers is graphically demonstrated this year by the fact that 29 of the 74 consignors to the purebred Hereford cattle sales are from in the Beehive state. The points sales will be held November 4 and 5 during the 28th annual renewal of the event, November 2 to 6. The Utahns will enter 168 of the total consignment of the 468 head of the breed, which will be offered in pens of five and pens of threes and singles. The animals will include a offering of range and herd bulls and foundation females. This is one of the best we have to offer that educational facilities provided by the show encourage our own people to build up top quality livestock herds, said George S. Eccles, president of the show. "Just ten years ago Utah was represented in these sales by only one consignor. Consignors to the Hereford sales have in past years come mainly from nationally prominent cattle ranches in the midwestern states, Mr. Eccles said. The fact that Utah growers today comprise the largest number from any single state is further proof that our local growers are receiving great benefits through educational features of the Ogden Livestock Show. The goal of the purebred sales is to distribute as widely as possible these high-typ- e breeding animals as, a factor in improving and strengthening the beef herds of the state. Utahns in past years have participated in the sales principally as buyers. The high quality animals taken back to .their home ranches have, in turn, improved Utah herds to the point where Utahns are now in a position to get in the selling end of the show. The number of high quality breeding animals displayed at the Ogden show year after year has impressed upon our producers the value of good breeding and feeding procedures", Mr. Eccles continued. A ranch with only standard quality cattle can, in a few years, turn out offspring of highest quality if only a few good are placed on the breeders range. Utah consignors to the Hereford auctions include the following: Gardell Snow, C. H. Snow, Bruce Funk, all of Ferron; Sherman Stuart. Clarkston; Jensen Bros., Logan; Peterson Bros., Ogden; Winterton Bros., Kamas; C. B. Hawley, Richfield; J. E. Deese and Sons, Morgan; W. E.
