He knows to a penny what you ow. And you have to pay him. Sometimes, in thinking about It, you wonder where he was and what he wa doing while you were eating and drinking. This thought suggests itself: Isn't there a "pay waiter" in nearly every activity of life in which wa engage?

AUGUST 21. 1928. 2 W ; -- BEFORE YOU INVEST IXVESTIUATf T is always open season" for foolish in- -l vestments. At no time ate we absolutely secure from the blandishments and persuasion of the fluent fellow who has something to sell. Our accumulated savings mty be meagre, indeed, but somewhere there is a promoter, who is looking toward it with eager eyes. By no means is Ibis promoter or salesman always a scoundrel. He may have the utmost confidence in the worthiness tend the stability of bis proposition; but it is prudent to discount his enthusiasm considerably because bis dream of success and audden riches may have affected in tome degree his judgment When crops are good and wages high there will usually be found a plentiful supply of investments offered to men and and less business women of little means acumen. Farmers and laboring men are not the only prey of the promoter. Professional men, school teachers, and even business men are besieged with flattering offers and rosy promises of the -- , variety. There is always a safe attitude to take upon a situation of this kind, and it ia summed up in the excellent phrase, efore If all would you invest investigate." do this much, regret and sorrow would be avoided. But there are many of the unwary and the unwise who invest first and investigate afterward. Delayed investigation is futile. The special display page which with a supplementary editorial That Deseret News contributes weekly to promoting the general interests of Utah and the Intermoun-taiWest, has an important message this week on the subject of safe investmentsTbe page appears elsewhere in todays issue, and will repay a careful reading. There are so many good investments in Utah, so many legitimate opportunities promising fair returns without undue hazard, that it is most unfortunate for any citizen to lose h's money on a spurious or however honest venture. "The News earnestly urges its readers and friends to guard themselves against this form of imprudence and loss. Let us encourage in every possible way legitimate and bona fide business, and let us discourage that kind which is too speculative and unworthy the approval and support of the stable business judgment. Let us make it a rule to investigaie before vie invest, not as a hamper' to busness activity, but for and as an encouragement to legitimate business that deserves universal support. If we will do this we shall save ourselves chagrin and disappointment, and at the same t'rae we shall be helping to build up the very excellent fabric of real business that has -- ade it possible to say of Utah, This is the Place " i. 4 :. 4 4 WILLIAM HOWELL McLYTlRE. or any state for that matter, THIS illstate, afford to lose a citizen He William Howell McIntyre, whose death was reported Friday. He was in every sense a valuable citizen. He was a builder, a man of large holdings, of sound judgment and upright character. Schooled in the hardy days, of the Pioneer, he acquired zeal, and other essential qualities that make for success. ' Mr. McIntyre's business and financial interests reached into various f.elds and made cf him a man of real influence. His education was acquired in the school of hard experience. He was in early life a freighter and learned to know the West intimately and thoroughly. At an early age he visioned the great possibilities of this bmsclf to helping section, and applied bring that success to fruition. His life spanned the period of Utah's development from a rugged frontier to (he position of industrial importance and civic and cultural standing which the state now can ce boast- - Alr. McIntyre was beloved by his family honored and esteemed by and intimates, bis fellow citizens everywhere. His presence and his counsel will be greatly missed snd bis death is a distinct loss to Ibis city and slate. The Deseret News extends earnest sympathy lo his loved ones in their INCREASE PRODUCTION. LY TWENTY YEARS AGO majority of the workers INin tbe iron great and steel industry, were on a twelve-ho- ur day schedule. They now work eight hours daily and yet according to the Bureau of Labor statistics tbe output per men has increased since 1914, fifty per cent If one had been told ten years ago that greater efficiency on the part of the workers, together with a more perfect organization and improved machinery, would increase poduelion in this industry fifty per cent, be would not have believed it possible. Workers in Ibis industry at that time thought that they had about reached the limit of human production. During the same period efficiency in boot and shoe making has increased seventeen per cent largely as a result of improved machinery and methods and in a measure lo the greater skill and intelligence of the workman. The most amazing augmentation of ef1914 the fort however, is found in the automobile FARM PLAN. INTER UR BAY DIFFICULTIES. indeed, that circumstanITcesis unfortunate, should have compelled the Utah. Idaho Central Railroad company to go into receivership. As President Joseph Scowcroft of the corporation observed in his statement Friday, the inability of the U. L C. to meet its obligations is a keen disappointment to all connected with the company. It is, moreover, a disappointment to, the people of the territory which the railroad serves, and to citizens of tbe state in general. The men who invested their money in the enterprise and have sponsored it since its inception, are not to blame. Economic conditions of recent years. unforseen developments. in the field of transportalon, have brought difficulty to many similar enthe United States. terprises throughout Increasing costa of material and of every , item that enters into maintenance and operation, and in particular the rapidly growing use of automobile transportation both for passengers snd freight, have combined to give the electric railroads, particularly inierurhafis, an extremely heavy burden to bear. . Coming soon after the receivership of the Salt Lake and Utah, the difficulties of the U. L C- - should prove an impressive reminder to tbo people of this slate and particularly to those of the sections served by these railroads, that they must give to such atlerpisea a generous patronage if they ed in Congress. Mr, Coolidge is unwilling to let tbe matter rest as he is satisfied that financing the will toward solving the farmers go farther problems than any other plan yet brought forward. Inasmuch as Congress will not provide public money fop this purpose, he hopes to Induce private capital to advance the funds. The plan is not new. It barks back to the War Finance Corporation and tbe use of 110,000,1)00 in private credits a few years sgo to help the Northwest wheat fanners out of a serious depression, Tbe government cannot go farther than this without giving the farmers a direct subsidy and th the Administration rejects.
