Voi.10. 1956 ; September 28, 1956 Editorial A Noted Utahn Cooperation with other departments of government and the desire to serve the citizens of the state of Utah to the best of knowledge has been the guiding principles of one of Utahs most distinguished citizens. An active politician, church worker, civic improvement enthusiast, and an avid American, Salt Lake County Finance and Purchase Commissioner Edwin Q. Cannon has spent a productive life in the interest of the citizens. More can be accomplished by cooperative efforts in a few minutes, than a lifetime of quibbling can effect, Mr. Cannon believes. His willingness and ability to cooperate with other Commissioners and the rest of the state, county and city officials has brought him endless compliments. A brief history of Mr. Cannons activities seems impossible, since his life has been filled with industrious work for the benefit of the people. He served in the state legislature from 1947 to 1949. His chuch activities have taken him to Germany where he was president of the German Mission of the Church of Jesus Saints. His present position on the CounChrist of Latter-da- y ty Commission gives him the added responsibility of representative on the County Planning Board, The Library Board and the South Salt Lake Mosquito Abatement Board. A student at the University of Utah and the LDS Business College, Mr. Cannon has lived in Salt Lake all his life. Anactive participant in politics for over 20 years, he has served the Republican Party as chairman of his political district. The efficiency, hard work accomplishments of Edwin Q. Cannon deserve recognition. The Statesman would like to take this opportunity of extending it to him. ...

Utahns who are interested are invited to write to Senator Watkins, Senate Office Building, Washington, D.C., to obtain the necessary application forms. The completed forms must be returned not later than October 22. What the Democratic Party needs is a dynamic and fighting candidate who will not compromise on fundamental issues.

Kefauver on Stevenson: Stevenson has acted in a manner repugnant to liberals everywhere; he is a corporation lawyer curiously silent, about monopolies; he would be an unacceptable package to the majority of voters and he lacks the will to win. Moreover said Sen. Kefauver, Stevenson uses a smile and smear technique on the civil rights question. And one for good measure Mr. Truman on Stevenson: 'Sen.
