It ui among the belt that we have considered and shows much thAught and study in setting forth an ideal eeonomie system. The book ie worthy of g more eomprehenaive title and the should have a better name than Wonomian. It is gratifying to know that there are some who demand somethin far better than the present state of affaire for all men, woman and children. The gyitem, like nearly all the other systems we have examined, lacks one thing, and in that it lacks lacking about everything the spiritual. No plan can succed that is not bedrocked on spiritual foundations. Moses and Jesus gave out the g plan long ago, and absolutely nothing but failure can be predicted for any other plan. These two characters built and planned foy all men of al! time, and failure and chaos are now enveloping mankind because their plan haa not been followed. For forty years we have been publishing writings which include the beet in this and all other plane and we know now, and have known for some time, that none of the manmade plans' will or can susceed. It would be worth the price of martyrdom if it would bring in a plan like Dr. Wilsons But it cannot be. The saving plan must be lifted from the sacred books where the sacred books whore the Author of all things human placed it to operate for all men of all time. This does not mean that mens good efforts for a better system count for naught. They help to prepare the minds of those who shall survive. It is true that men will do the work of re. building the higher social structure, but only under the direction of the One who shall come to rule and call the nations to peace and show them Hie truth which has been with mankind for two thousand yean, but the world rejected it.

The officers and worken have made a record that Utah should be proud of. When one considers all that haa been done and the number of people who has bten employed it causes him to wonder. A big community dinner wae given by the organisation at the U. of U. Stadium Monday evening and an elaborate program carried out. This organization ahould be continued, enlarged and extended in its helpfull operations. Great Convert to Cooperation All real coopera ton should take much satisfaction out of the fact that the great writer, Roger Babaon haa come out for Cooperative way of life, with a spiritual or religioua background may be able to save mankind at the present time He speaks the truth. It should be tried in this country before it is too late. The totalitarian forma of government just politely wipe cooperatives and labor unions off the map. Millions Think Likewise One of the editors of the Loa Angeles Examiner writes aa follows: "Tossing death and destruction on peaceful residents of neutral nations may be what eome people call war, but to me it ie just plain, first degree mass murder.

This la the comment of F. B. Richardson, secretary of the ColoBasin Water Uaen rado River-GreAssociation assurance following from Conynlisloner John C. Page that both surveys an being has- tened by hie department "The department haa been active making soil surveys In our atate for neerly a year, Hr. Richardion pointed out. "Under the direction of Edwin G. Nielsen, associate engineer ta charge of U. S. Bureau of Reclamation investigations, much of this work already haa boon comI understand that it ta pleted. quite possible Hr. Ntoleen and his staff will finish this survey before the end of the current year. The eoll survey and the survey planned on the Colorado end Green rivers have been ordered in connection with tbe program to determine the possible developments of water and power resources for the benefit of the upper basin states. Importance "We believe, Hr. Richardson eld, thet if there ta a pouiblllty of more water for Utah acres end more power for Utah industries, we must discover It and then take tape to develop it Many of the major developments of recent years were once thought impossible end impractical. Thors era those who say that damming of the Green River at, for instance, Split Mountain, Echo Perk or Fleming Gorge and conducting water to areas west of the Wautch mountains would be e project too tremendous to undertake. But when we realise that such a project if It can be accomplished will benefit more than half our counties directly and the entire atate indirectly, I feel that we owe it to ourselves to find out if such a plan can be . put into action. ' Apparently'" the bureau elamatlon agrees with the association, for the survey work already ta assured. The entire reaches of the Green and upper Colorado Rivera are to be explored for possibilities. The soil survey work now nnder way throughout the state nnder Mr. Nielsen's direction is of farreach-in- g Hr. Richardson importance. pointed out. Through this survey the amount of irrigable land which g 'of wstar-snd-pow- would benefit from such a project will be determined. Preliminary estimates place the land in this classification at 600,000 acres approximately equal to the ires now under Irrigation ta the atate. "This figure alone, Mr. Richardson said, "presente an Idee of the benefit euch e project would bring our state. With the Western states constantly Increasing ta population, thera will continue to bo an increasing market for agricultural product grown in the West The only way we can produce more goods from the farms Is to increase the acreage on which they can be produced. Greet Importance Under Hr. Nielsen's direction, approximately 150 men were engaged in making soli surveys last summer. It Is understood that a similar force will be placed in tbe field ta n attempt to complete this work this year. In addition to this survey, surveys have been conducted to determine probable routes for bringing water from tbe Colorado River basin to Utah acres. Preliminary lines, for instance, have been run to two of the dlecnaeed dam eltee. One of these ie at Echo line. Park at the Colored Another ie at Minnie Maud where the Green River separatee Carbon and Uintah counties. i I !' s reoon-natasan- i The geology of the possible tun- nel sites through the Wasatch range hue been studied. The foundation possibilities of the various dam sites have been and are being explored with drill rigs, end tbe capacity of the various reservoirs ta being determined. The history of the streams flow, since records have been kept, ta being plotted to determine the amount of storage capacity needed to assure an ample water aupply. "Our association ta pleased that the Bureau of Reclamation is going forward Mr. with this work, Richardson said. Representatives J. W. Robinson and a member of the House irrigation committee as well ee the entire Utah congressional delegation have done a consistently fine job in Congress to help push this work along. Mr. Richardson also expressed the hope that all dtisena of the state. of Utah would "realise the tremendous Importance of such a project to them. In my mind, this, without a question of doubt, would be the greatest single factor in Utah's permanent growth that could ever hnppen, he said. "I sincerely hope that the survey! will prove the project! economically feasible. If they do, Utah must assure Itself that it can and will protect Us rights to the water of the upper Colorado river basin necessary for this development. I What the start say about your Birthday.
