COURAGE OF BERNARD SHAW It took some courage for Bernard Shaw to say to his If England has nothing better than her capital country: iism, her politics and her carryings on in parliament to give toward the New World which people are looking forward to, then the sooner Hitler or someone else puts her down the better. And it will take even more courage to say a similar thing about America. Who dares to speak the truth the whole truth? Capitalism as it is, and as it has been, is built on mountains of massed poverty and privation, and to exist at all must be supported by reformatories, jails, police forces and armies. Politics, as it is and as it has been, is a disgrace to the nation and is carried on in such a way and manner as to debauch nearly all the avenues of national life if these are all that the leaders who say they are out to save America have may God pity us all in our pitiful strife. These things are not synonymous with true Americanism. Amer ica cannot be saved by these processes. Some leader must rise above them and lead to nobler things and higher and new processes. How About Cooperative Insurance? Hera's something worth knowing about insurance. For 21 yean the Utah Teachers Auociation has found their death rate to be leu than 3 in one. thousand, or about $3.00 per thousand for insurance for one year, ages 21 to 67. This is because they have their own cooperative life insurance hy couldn't the common people do likewise? Asso-ciatio- n; UTAHS SOIL STUDIED BY U. & RECLAMATION BUREAU Surveys Will Show If States Acres Can Benefit By Upper Colorado River Water Projects YES, BUT NOT NOW Men today are readily admitting that there must come a change in the present economic world order. Bat when we point out the fact of the imminence of that change they are skeptical, holding that it will take many years to accomplish such a renovation. But does history justify such an attitude? The process leading to a change may be of long durar tion, but when the time for the change has arrived it occurs almost over night In modern times we have seen the governments of 1913 AD. change in a short period of four years, for when 1918 arrived continental empires had disappeared. Two days before the Soviets came to power in Russia it was not even thought possible. Think for a moment of the things that have occurred since the signing of the. Armistice in 19181 Today we find in Europe a type of government that would have seemed impossible even ten years ago. Within a few weeks France has ceased to be one of the Great Powers. Apart from the prophetic picture, can any thinking man believe in the continuation of the present system, as we know it, if the world conflict goes on? Even though peace should soon be declared there has already been placed on our economic structure such a strain that it would not long survive tiie coming of peace. But what if there is no peace? Let us take into consideration another interesting fact.
