Ingleheart Utah State Press Ass sciation With Governer Herbtrt B. Maws $16,000,000 budget before them with seventy-tw- o bills introduced in the Senate and sixty-eigin the House of Representatives the 26th session of the Utah State Legislature completed its second week fully organized and ready to devote the remainder of the time to actua Haw making. Only one bill has reached the statute books so far and that one provides for the increase in pay of legislators to the newly authorized constitutional limit of $300 per year. And speaking of pay increases, there aire already pending bills inincreases creasing or authorizing for the salaries of all elective and the major appointive state officials, county officials, district attorneys, mayors and city commissioners. Public servants have come in for other consideration also in a number of civil service, retirement and pension plans offered in behalf of the non teaching employees in schools, county firemen, employees of state custodial institutions and the state highway patrol. All of these would be eligible for benefits similar to those now given state wide only to employees of the Welfaer commission, the state health board and the department of unemployment security of the state industrial commission. No legislature would be complete without some investigations, so the motion of Rep. Clifton G. M. Kerr for a house committee to probe the financial of the state liquor control commission, hardly came as a complete surprise. To the house elections committee headed by Rep. Joseph E. Rees went the house seat contest brought by Republican county chairman Mark Paxton of Delta against C. E. Freer, Democrat, the declared elected representative from Millard county. Decision on the contest will probably not be made until the Supreme court has decided the pending action for a declaratory judgment in the recount petition of J. Bracken Lee against Governor Maw. Changes in the election law for all offices and for the judiciary in particular are certain to cause a lot of miscellaneous oratory when they come to the floor of the legislature. A headless ballot, changes in the primary law system, the nonand partisan election of judges c JUNIOR PROM MARCH 23 The annual Junior Prom of the South Cache High School will be held on March 23 of this year and is under the direction of Mr. Hall and Miss Bankhead, class advisors.

According to Mr. Bowles, the return to rationing was ordered to help our armed forces get the canned citrus juices they need, and at the same time avoid too rapid depletion of supply of those juices available to civilians.
