More laws to restrict individual rights and liberties will mean more law breaking. An Opportunity to Encourage Employment At present many basic industries are in the same boat so far as overproduction is concerned. Agriculture, mining, oil and others are suffering from a depression due to supply exceeding demand. Copper mines are seeking to curtail production and reduce surplus stocks. For a large part of this year metal prices did not allow operators to break even. The public should support the effort of mining to establish itself on a sound basis, as it has supported their places. . similar efforts of the oil industry and is the peojust what Perhaps that agriculture.

This happy condition has day, the rail executives were been brought about by the assurance meeting in New York to prepare and rail-unio- six-io- that Utah granite, from these quar- ries, will be used for the construction of the new federal building and for facing the present federal building. It is strange that Salt Lake and Utah should taboo this splendid Eeople material, which has been proven of most excellent quality. It is from these quarries that stone was obtained for building the Salt Lake temple and the state capitol building, both of which are splendid examples in point of architectural excellence and permanence. Utah has great ledges of marble of a high standard of excellence and rare beauty, but it is being conserved in the eternal hills which flank old Mount Nebo. Utah exports millions of tons of copper per annum and imports great quantities of copper wire, sheets and pipe. Utah produces and exports great quantities of lead and imports all of her manufactured lead goods. Utah produces great quantities of silver, sells it back east, and imports all silver manufactured goods. Utah produces great quantities of but why enumerate? .Everybody knows as much or more about the subject than we do, but dont seem . Utah is like most to care a d other western states. She seems to be principally interested in giving of resources to building her up other commonwealths. God-giv- en Time to Begin Fingerprinting come to It has the attenrecently tion of The Post that there is no fingerprint or kindred criminal identification department in the office of the sheriff of Weber county. This is one of the departments for which there is great need in the office of the sheriff of every county which has to do with criminals as does the sheriff of Weber county. Ogden is not only a population center, but, located as it is at the crossroads of the intermountain region, scientific and modern identification systems are most needful here. By the finger print system many an innocent appearing vagrant, held for a trivial offense, may be identified as a much wanted criminal. It is hoped that Amasa Hammon, the incoming sheriff, will introduce the fingerprint system soon after he is inducted into office early in January. Inasmuch as the Laws of Utah, 1927, make the duty of fingerprinting mandatory on the sheriffs department, it seems strange that the law has not been heretofore complied with in the Weber county sheriffs office. Useless Laws Cause Law Disrespect A recent statement brings out the fact that it will cost twice as much ur ur ng As we grow older, we change our Ideas concerning things about us. Our ideals also change. These changes cost us many a pang. Some of our beliefs may be dearer than their pets, or kinsfolk, or friends. Many men have died for must we beliefs. When we find we have been mistaken, gather new ideas. It almost always happens that o.ur new ideas are better, nobler, and happier than our outgrown fancies. An example of this is our first idea of Santa Claus. We .are fortunate if our early belief in Santa Claus brings to us a true vision of the real Spirit of Christmas, as it did for the author of the following charming answer to a child s letter of inquiry. Mr. Charles A. Dana was for many years one of the foremost journalists of Ahierica. He came to be editor of the New York Sun and while acting in this capacity received the following letter: Dear Editor: I am eight years old. Some of my little friends say is no Santa Clause Please tell me the truth. Is there that there a Santa Claus? Virginia O. Hanlon. The great editor answered in the following editorial, full of comprehension of the Spirit of Christmas Giving beyond the ken of most unthinking persons. IS THERE A SANTA CLAUS? ni te - Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensive by their little minds. They do not believe except they see. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or childrens, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect, compared with the boundless worlds about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole truth and knowledge. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they bound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas, how dreary the world would be if there were no Santa Claus? It would- be as dreary as if there were no Virginias There would be no childlike faith, then, no poetry, no romance, to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment except in sense and sight The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would then be extinguished Not to believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies ! You might get your papa to hire men to watch all the chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus; but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Not everybody sees Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not; but that's no proof that they were not there. No one can conceive or imagine all the things that are unseen o t unseeale in the world. You may tear apart a baby's rattle and see what makes noise the inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world that not the strongest . man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear4 apart Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view the picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. lt is all real. Ah, Virginia, in all the world there is nothing else real and abiding. No Santa Claus? Thank God, he lives, and he lives forever! A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the hearts of children. Charles A. Dana, beginning.

All over the nation state governments as well as the federal are perplexed by the growing cost of prisons, which is, of course, the obvious result of the increasing number of prisoners. Many penitentiaries are crowded to the point where officials are desperately seeking to find a place to put the steady flow of new inmates. The upshot of the matter will be that the public will be taxed to build more institutions, as has already been done in various localities. selves.
