There can U no denying that the NRA program is not perfect. No program of human construction has ever perfect, probably never will be. The NRA program is at least a plan that has been studied and its adoption advocated by men and women who appreciate that the new deal must be more than merely a measure of lip service. In order to be successful, the NRA plan must have the hearty cooperation of all. Support may be given the plan even though one does notice an occasional discrepancy in its formation and operation, these for the most part being weak appointments where the necessity for hurried formation of a national organization has permitted the selection of some third-ratpoliticians. These are errors that must remain to ater be corrected. The producers the laborers, agriculturists and their fellow workers who play a necessary part in our system of distribution have never had a better friend in the White House since the clays of Abraham Lincoln. Appreciating this they should take full advantage of the situation by supporting the presidents program. The workers of this country have rights under the National Recovery Act which cannot la taken from them, and nobody will be permitted to whittle them away, said President Roosevelt. Such a statement followed by appointment of Donald Richberg of Chicago as chief counsel for the National Recovery Administration is fair enough indication that the laboring class have a friend in the nations chief executive. Carbon countys duty is to support the presidents NRA plan. And Carbon county does not propose to shirk that duty in the least. e nt ! nl Carbon Wins Distinction of Organizing First NRA Band Part Members At In Feature III o c an-ti- on c r dis-ta- ap-mat- ely c Branch to Price c c Bon-acc- 13 De-vo- na rna-o- Postal Official Reports , Traffic Enforced Pledges to Position For - ! f - - - e S;-mc-e mc-rr.b- te. his ear. ra - cr-h- i K 32 r Roosevelt and the national react, Robert li.

Expenditure! totaling $116.336 62 have been mae'e from the relief fund created nine years ago to aid dependent of the 172 men killed in the Castle Gate mice explosion on March 8, 1924. The report of the fund' attribution for the nine year ending May 31 was issued Monday. A balance of $16,009.76 i shown In the report. The sum of $112,649.94 was raised by popular subscription. The fund was invested and lias earned interest amounting to $19,696.44. All of the principal has been spent, and the committee is now distributing the interest. At the present time, 31 families with 76 children are being aided, a compared to 100 families with 249 children at the time the fund was created. For the purpose of conserving the fund so that it will reach through two more winters, the monthly payments have been readjusted so that the fund will last until the spring of 1935. The beneficiaries have been ad- vised that the money will be completely exhausted by that time, and they are urged to adjust their affairs so they will be able to get along without further assistance after the fund is depleted. Administration expenses during the nine years totaled $11,832.49, which represents only 60 per cent of the interest received on the fund. The sum actually spent for relief was $103,-821.7- 4. Distribution of the relief Is summarized as follows: Number of cases in which widows and their children have been given monetary relief, 100; number of cases in which parents have been given relief, three;; number of cases in which children not included above have been given relief, 3; number of cases in which widows and their children have not been given relief due to inability to reach, 6; number of cases rejected for cause, 3; number of cases in which deceased left no dependents, 57. widows have remarried Fifty-nin- e since the disaster, the report shows. Emergency relief was provided during the year as follows: Assistance for high school work, 6; optical treatments, 2; dental work, 1; major operations, 3; milk for children, 1. During the year, D. L. Parmley, chairman of the Carbon county commission, became a member of the relief committee, succeeding Walter E. Knox. Mrs.' C. H. Stevenson of Price is also a member of the board. Other members are Imer Pett, chairman; M. A. Keyser, treasurer; James T. Hammond, secretary; and H. J. Binch, Darrell T. Lane and F. E. Morris. Disbursements are tabulated as follows: Monthly relief, $77,916.50; emergency relief, $14,905.03; final relief, $11,000.21; salary of field worker, $6020; salary of office assistant, traveling expenses, stationery, etc., $3482.49; depreciation in government securities sold, $682.39. $2,-35- 0; A county tax levy of 29 6 mills, as compared to 27,8 In 1932, has been adopted by the Carbon commissioners for this year, according to an announcement made Monday. The raise of 1.8 nills was neeessitaud by an addition to the atate and state school levy aid an Increase of $12,000 in the amount which the county must pay on bonded Indebtedness. The state assessment for this year was fixed at 9 8 mills, an Increase of 1.14 over 1932. The levy for the bond sinking lund was raised from .84 to 2 mills. Inusiniiih as counties are required to make every possible provision for relief to sipplcment R. F. C. aid, the county poor fund was increased from .5 of a mill to .7. The only other fund in which there is a higher levy is the bond Interest, which was placed at 1.5 mills as compart'd to 1.2 In the previous year. The 1932 state road tax of one mill was eliminated, and payments to the state on highway obligations will be made from the county road and bridge fund. The following levies remain the same as last year: General fund, 1.8 mills; county schools, 10.5 mills; dependent mothers, .2 mill; road and bridges, 3 mills; old age pension, .1 mill; fair fund, .2 mill. The fair levy was made to take care of the indebtedness which that fund previously owed to the general and county road and bridge funds. Assessments fixed by the seven incorporated cities or towns In the county are the same as last year, with the exception of Hiawatha, where the tax was increased from one to two mills. Levies In the other taxing units are as follows: Price, 20; Helper, 14; Scofield. 30; Wellington, 27; Castle Gate, 2; Sunnyside, 1.5. Special taxes, all the same as last year, are; Sheep and goats, 5 mills; range horses and cattle, 2 mills; tuberculosis (domestic cattle), 3 mills; Price River Water Conservation district, 87 mills. CARBON RETAILERS DISCUSS PROBLEMS A policy of opening no earlier than 8:00 a. m. and closing no later than 6:30 p. m. will hereafter be followed by stores affiliated with the grocery division of the Carbon County Retailers association. The decision to adopt this schedule was made Monday evening at a meeting of the association in Helper. This plan does not restrict the members of the grocery division to a definite time of opening and closing, but prescribes that the operation of the stores must be limited to a period within the above hours. A number of the dry goods dealers contemplate opening a little later and closing earlier than the grocers. Stores in the mining camps apparently favor hours from 8:30 a. m. to 5:30 p. m. The state code provides that stores may remain open until 8:00 p. m. on days preceding holidays. Inasmuch as Sunday is not a legal holiday, and Members of the city council held providing the state code is adopted, their meeting Monday. special permission must be obtained The session was devoted to transac- from, the state association to remain tion of routine business. open until eight oclock on Saturdays. Until this question is settled, business houses expect to operate until the latter hour.
