With Mr. Coolldge writing for the papers why we got a lot of new reading to do now. He had one In the other day that kinder jarred all of us, and made us wonder It he wasn't having a Ghost Writer Jo some of his stuff. It advised the working man to spend his money, and buy everything that he could possibly afford, and In that way help out the whole econom ic thing, so that it would put more money Into circulation, and make more jobs for those that had none. Now that Is absolutely going against all the laws we have been brought up to; we have always beeu taught to save and put by every dollar, that we could, and not buy anything unless we absolutely needed it, and to spend no money tor things that we could do without. Now all at once we are advised by everybody to start pending, so it will help somebody else. Imagine telling the working man to spend, that If he dont put his money into circulation why he wont have a job very long. That is what Mr. Coolldge said. Now that sounds so unlike him. Here is a man that the whole basis of his popularity Is based on his economy and thrift, and all at once to help out a situation, why he says Spend. So its hard to tell what to believe nowadays. b The body may be viewed on Thursday at the Deseret Mortuary and on Speaking of Prosperity, which about to tfca service at the all we are doing is speaking of it, when he would give us all a dime each as he come down In the morning, we would go nearby to tlie Golf Course, and he would play eight holes. It took a preity tough day, that kept him away. The reason for the eight holes only was that the eighth hole was over by a back road where be could have his car mert him, and go direct home from that bole. I dont play the game.

Arthur Meehan, state fish and game commissioner, concerning the ownership of the fishing jights in Strawberry reservoir is of prime importance only in Utah but in the rest of the west, Judge George P. Parker, attfimey general declared recently, while discussing the problem with the Strawberry Valley Waterusers association and Commissioner Mecharn. Judge Parker declared that his opinion might have a bearing upon all future reclamation projects and that it might even have to undergo the fire of debate on the floors of Congress and for that reason he was going to be sure that his opinion, whatever it might be, would stand the acid test. The so called Strawberry question is unique. Judge Parker declares. Hitherto in reclamation projects the right of the state to control fishing has never been questioned. The projects have been built wholly or in part on public land. But in Strawberry, we have a difJudge Parker says. Here we have a reservoir built upon what is now or will be private land. When congress authorized the Strawberry valley project in 1910 the reclamation service purchased 56,000 acres of land from the Indians at $1,25 an acre. This cost was charged against the project and land was to become tbi property of the waterpsers when title to the project passed to them. iThe wiaeruSers now claim, as I understand it from the letter written to me by Mr. Mecharn, full ownership of the fishing privileges on the reservoir and while they are willing to enter into an agreement with the state on the fishing rights the state must understand and admit that these rights are on the sufferance of the waterusers association ind not allowed because the state has any claim on ferent condition, the fishing. There are many complcated legal points involved which I do not care to discusnnnnnnnn hhhh chnusoh. plyuu before issuing the formal discuss opinion. The fact that the Strawberry people filed on the water for irrigation purposes and not for the propagation of fish may have some bearing. That is one of the points my men are running down. The dlsquiting feature of this question is that if the Strawberry people are right then Echo, Hyrum, Deer Creek, Gooseberry and other proposed or actual projects are apt to become state or private fish ponds unless the the federal government take some action to preserve these rights to the public It might be deemed wise to avoid such controversies, that the reclamation law be amended to specify that state. fishing rights reman with the It might be wise to urge a clause in all succeeding contracts between the water-user- s. reclamation bureau and the how or Just what will be best tell not can we far this qestion will go arranged. data our until we get all this But it any rate we believeandthat will be opinion will be widely read ensdered not only by this state but by raised other states.
