NATIONAL ' SALE-BY-DRIN- SSOCIATION PLAN IS DROPPED K Failing to secure enough signatures to place a liquor referendum on the ballot this fall, the organization drafted to get the necessary 25,000 names on the petitions, announced last week that the project will be dropped. Present plans are to carry the fight to the state legislature when it convenes next sale-by-dri- year. The measure as drawn up seemed to be favorably received by large sections of the population, but later developed some powerful opposition. The tavern association opposed it when beer dealers found they were eliminated as sellers of hard liquor. The LDS church officials frowned on the plan, and of course, the state administration was out tooth and toenail to beat it. According to John Boggs, who was placed in charge of the campaign, 38,000 names were secured, but about 15,000 of these were eliminated as By simple arithmetic this seems to leave a bare 2000 names to be secured. Things must have looked really tough to drop the plan that close to the goal. We would have liked to have had this much debated question come before the people. non-eligibl- e. KILL THE SALES TAX Elimination of the sales tax on foods, medicine and other necessities will be recommended to the next legislature by Governor Herbert B. Maw, according to state dis- patches. This miserable law was instituted way back in the early depression era and kept on the statute books ever since. It was first labeled for emergency relief purposes and the tax tokens were so stamped. The tokens no longer bear the words: For emergency relief after the end of the emergency. The sales tax law has supported a lot of politicians in soft jobs; it has taken great sums of money from average workers as they bought the necessities of life; it has headaches for business provided first-clas- s people who have been forced into jobs as tax collectors. Once a source of revenue is established by a branch of government it is seldom killed the instigators and executives who have fallen into nice berths entrench and perpetuate themselves. The state legislature should kill the sales tax law in its entirety, but if nothing else should follow the governors suggestions and eliminate it on foods, medicine and other necessities at least. It will be interestng to watch the progress of the state heads recom- mendations in the legislature. SUN-ADVOCAT- PRICE. UTAH E. income. The greater the income, the greater the prosperity. Price cannot prosper without the flow of money into its borders, the coin that comes to live in Price becomes a true workman for the upbuilding of this section. Money that goes away, like all absentees, does us no good whatever. Per capita wealth does not always mean general prosperity, but it certainly insures the possibility of that desired state. Consider this city as one joint enterprise, with all citizens as stockholders. What each one spends away from home is money sent away ; what each one sells away from home is money brought in to offset the other total. If the money that arrives is greater than that sent away the civic entity grows, its surplus grows. This lesson in simple economics should be heeded by people who earn their money here and spend it somewhere else.

AFTER A LONG ILLNESS We go on reading obituary notices in the papers about people who have died after a What this phrase usually long illness. means is that the deceased died of cancer-Lonillness is the ancient press euphemism for cancer. Isnt it about time to start using plain English in such cases? Time was when a long illness might also signify tuberculosis. That is pretty much out, now. For example, when the noted song writer, Vincent Youmans, died in Denver recently, the press dispatches said frankly There is nothing disgraceful about cancer, any more than about tuberculosis, or heart trouble, or diabetes. By abandoning attitude toward tuberculosis, the hush-hus- h we contribute materially to the war against that disease. By taking to calling syphilis and gonorrhea by their right names, we brought them into the spotlight of frank discussion, which was a great gain. The same thing needs to be done about cancer and especially it needs to be done now, when the American Cancer Society is trying to raise $12,000,00 for an organized, all-oresearch and treatment war on an affliction which kills some 160,000 Americans a year. Lets shelve the long illness except for those infrequent instances where there and special and cogent reasons why the cause of death should not be made public. Colliers.
