Bacon, state engineer, and the other organizations, following a visit by Mr. Bacon to Salina some two weeks ago. Through heavy cloudbursts coming from the Denmark wash and Salina canyon during the past few years, much silt and debris has been carried to the river bed, with the result that the river channel has been completely filled and the waters are flowing promiscuously over several hundred acres of land, causing damage to pastures and farming lands. The receiving gates at the intake of the West-vieIrrigation company, just east of the bridge at Redmond, it is claimed, is one of the factors causing the waters to back up, thus preventing much of the silt from flowing downstream. The Gunnison-Fayett- e dam, farther down the stream, investigation shows, is also creating some concern, and it is with a view of figuring out something that will avert this condition that the surveys will be w made. West of Salina, the state highway is constantly in danger when the flood waters come in the spring, as the waters have inundated the oiled road on several occasions and endangers the surfacing. It is believed that the plan of building a cement dam at the intake of the Westview, whereby a greater fall can be obta;n-ed- , much of the grief would be overcome. el DINNER FOR VISITORS. Mrs. W. H.

Is Hundreds of sorrowing friends gathered at the Second ward chapel Wednesday afternoon to pay the last loving tribute to William Gee, friend, scholar and a splendid citizen. Services were in charge of Bishop G. M. Burr and the principal speakers were Miss Stena Scorup, G. Lorentzen and Bishop Burr. The life of Mr. Gee was eulogized and his life portrayed as an esteemed citizen, lover of nature and a student and scholar. Words of comfort were spoken for those bereft of the kindly husband and father. Appropriate musical numbers were given, the choir singing Oh, My FaThere Is Sweet Rest In Heather, Till We Meet Again. A ven, and selected quartet rendered Lay My Head Beneath a Rose, and James C. Beautiful Jensen gave as a solo, Wings of Snow. Following the services the remains were taken to the East cemetery for final interment. William Gee passed away at the family home at McGill, Nev., last Friday at 1 oclock, following an illness A of several weeks. James Gee, died at Gunnison a week previous. Some two years ago William Gee, with his family, moved to McGill, where he had resided until the time of his death. He w'as born at Leichestershire, England, June 11, 1852, and during the year 1875 hei came to America to make his home. The major portion of his life was spent in Sanpete and Sevier counties. In 1890 he was married to Anna Sohpia Olsen, and later they came to Salina, where they resided for some. 19 years. Mr. Gee served in public positions during his residence here, being justice of the peace several times, was automobile inspector, notary public, and as a profession he operated a shoe repair shop. Besides his wife, he is survived by the following children: Mrs. Thorvald Andreason, Salina; Tony Gee, Mrs. Geo. L. Crane, Ted C. and Garney Gee of McGill, Nev.; Mrs. Harold E. Phelps, Waldo and Boyd Gee of Los Angeles; Mrs. Eldred Murphy of Salina and Mrs. Mark C. Brown of Salt Lake. Besides thirteen grandchildren, Mr. Gee is survived by the following brothers and sisters: Mrs. Ellen Swain of Idaho Falls, Ida.; Mrs. Jenny Weight, Trice; Edward (lee and Mrs. Sarah Pierce of Wellington, Utah; Frank Gee of Fayette; Elizabeth Weight and Mrs. Maude Brown of Salt Lake, and Alma Gee of Ephhalf-brothe- r, raim. Many of the relatives were here to attend the funeral services. Beautiful floral offerings, sent by sorrowing relatives and friends, were contributed and showed the love and esteem for William Gee. Coojerative association and the Idaho Beet Growers association, was the final decision reached as to the price to be made for beets in 1932. were brought out, primary among which was the prevailing and the possible price of sugar during the year. It was brought out at the meeting at Salt Lake Saturday that the ports of America were too wide open for the import of the refined or raw material for sugar manufacture. This feature alone imperils the manufacturer, and endeavors are now being made to have a protective tariff that w'ould give tlie manufacturers, as well as the growers, ample protection for the industry, one of the largest in the intermountain country. Under the terms of the contract adopted by the beet growers of Utah and Idaho and the manufacturers, the price to be paid to the farmers for beets will be based upon three factors: sugar content, sugar extraction and the price of sugar. The extrac tion factor was raised to a polpt which will give the farmers, as nearly as possible to compute, a split with the manufacturers. Or to place it more explicitly, the grower will receive 50 per cent of the sugar extracted from their beets and the per ton price of beets will be based on the price the manufacturers receive for the sugar. Participating in the meet at Salt Lake were the Gunnison Sugar company, the Sugar company, the Amalgamated, the Lay-toand the Franklin County Sugar Many-complexitie- s 50-6- Utah-Idah- 0 o n, company. The beet growers are facing one of the most promising seasons for many years past. The watersheds in the mountains are in better condition than for the past ten years and ample water is practically assured. And, too, sugar, as well as other commodities, has been at low ebb for months. Conditions are sure to change through the efforts of big capitalists to arouse stagnated business conditions, and when this comes sugar prices wijl go forward, thus assuring, a better (Continued on last page) School Opera Set For Next Wednesday Crocodile Island, a comic opera in two acts, will be presented at the high school auditorium Wednesday evening, March 16, by talent selected from students of North Sevier high school.
