This week I am digressing somewhat from the regular procedure in writing my column, and have clipped a few pertinent thoughts as expressed by Charles W. Claybaugh, editor and publisher of the Box Elder News and Journal at Brigham City, on the proposed Reapportionment of Utahs Legislature. . . . Charleys thinking goes along very closely with mine on this subject, and Im sure most of the Cow Towns in small town publishers in the Utah. I give you his ideas and urge our own legislators, if the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce succeeds in getting the governor to call a special session of the legislature, to get the thinking of their people before going into a session to change what has already been proposed to present to the people of Utah. . . Following are Charleys thoughts as found in his Personally Speaking column: I see by the papers that the Salt Lake City Chamber of Commerce has joined and added prestige to the minority movement asking for a special session of the legislature to seek a compromise on the legislative reapportionment issue. -- -- -- Arcadia Mrs. Ora Holgate accompanied oOo- Conference of the Latter-daSaints of the Duchesne stake was held at the hall Saturday and Sunday.

Miss Cleo Holgate and Stanley Stevenson through the Manti Temple where they were married on Friday. Mrs. e litonali This said compromise must be the one proposed by the present constitutional amendment, giving each county one state senator. This measure was passed by the legislature and apparently the urban areas are afraid it will pass a vote of the people. In its place, Maybe would substitute an amendment which would give rural communities only one more senator than in the present legislative makeup, combining San Cleo Holgate Is Wed In Temple eye-to-ey- ' Sen. R. N. Maybe, Bountiful, who would change -- atch, Summit, Alorgan and Rich counties. In this way, the senator has it figured out, he could eliminate seven senators from strictly rural areas, who with the city boys on legislative might not see matters. In supporting this compromise and urging a special session to reconsider the matter, the board of governors of the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce point out that the present constitutional amendment will give disproportionate representation from the less populated areas. Id like to point right back that the more populated areas now have control of both the senate and the house and that if the amendment carries, they will still have complete control of the house and you cans pass any legislative matter without the two concurring1, so they havent a thing to worry about if they are concerned, as they say, with being completely fair about the whole matter. The Salt Lake Chamber action was a victory for the Salt Lake Tribune which has been plugging the proposal for several months. They gloat over the decision, which certainly came as no surprise, by saying editorially: The (Salt Lake) Chambers action should be helpful also in dramatizing to the residents of cities and towns the seriousness of the threat embodied in the proposition now before the people, not only affecting urban interests but th balance and welfare of the the state as a whole. The editorial continues with this gem: This would give rural counties excessive control of the upper house and therefore the legislature, but worse, in a practical sense, it would make the setup practically permanent. I fail to see any logic to the argument that its bad for the rural counties to control one legislative body while the urgan areas control the other, that the pnly good way to do it is to leave control of both sides in the hands of the urban areas so that they could maintain the balance and welfare of the state as a whole. Perhaps if I were publishing a newspaper in Salt Lake City I could see the light. Until I do, I cant go along with the statement that the worst thing about the whole affair is that it would make the new setup practically permanent. ! one-ma- n g, Five In Uintah File For Office Five Uintah County officers have filed their declarations of this candidacy for fall.
