Why, Utahns don't ciunT own Poland. Knyl.-iiu- i even own I 'tab. It's owned by Wall Street. IN NOW, PROFESSOR, I don't know why I should Hume you, because people always are saying that Wall Street owns tali, but nows as good a time as any to look at the matte r in another light. I WHY no Wi: SAY Wall Street owns Utah? Why not ray "Utah owns Wall Street? Our capital city has a stock exchange and bonds. I)o you know what those New York stocks and Imnds are? Of course vou do. Professor. Theyre partly Utah the Utah that you and others are talking about when you say Wall Street owns Utah. The only possible reason I can think of for a Utah paper devoting the Letter part of a page-o- f their space to the daily quotations is because Utah people people who were born and reared and live right here in Utah buy and sell those stocks and bonds. IF TllOSi: STOCKS ANT) PONDS pieces of paper are Utah, then Utah is listed printed in green and gold on the stock exchange and is for sale to you and me or anybody else who wants to pay the list price, any day. The Grin Reaper IF UTAH (were calling those stocks and bonds Utah row, remember) is making a big fat profit for its bloated (I dont know why, but theyre always bloated) Wall Street owners, then you can bet your bottom dollar the poor slaves who live in Utah and work in the mines or on the railroads or at whatever industry is represented in those stocks and bonds will hear about it and cut themselves in on the gravy with higher wages. If its hard to do, at least they can go on strike and knock the bloated Wall Streeters profits into a cocked hat. UTAH IS THE HOUSE my family and I live in, even if the F. II. A. owns more of it than we do (and probably Wall Street owns the F. II. A.). Its the farms, and the farmers who work them, and make their living from them, no matter who owns the mortgages. Its the mines, and the men who dig out the ugly, rich earths, and the industries and the people who toil in them day by day,, no matter who owns the stocks and. bonds. . NO. PROFESSOR, Ill admit that you know more economics in your little finger than Ill ever know, but I maintain that Utah is owned by the people who live and work and make their living in Utah. And Ill go on believing it until Wall Street comes out here and takes it and shoves us out. And if those bloated away from us out here, they wouldnt be' Wall came Wall Streeters more.

Two morons had hor-o- s, which they kept together in the same stall In a barn. But they always were getting their horses mixed up, mistaking the one for the other.

Affording our young people the best possible opportunities is, in reality, an investment in our countrys future.

A third moron happened by, saw what was going on, and decided to bring his intelligence to bear on the situation. he thought, there Surely, must be some way to tell those morons horses apart, without mutilating them so cruelly. So he got a yardstick, thinking perhaps there might be some difference in the size of the two horses. He measured them, and sure enough, the black horse was a good four inches taller than the white horse.
