There are arrest's made in Salt Lake City for this same offense, where they do it behind closed doors, here it is being done right out in the open every day, and your police force close their eyes to it, or are they so dumb that they dont know the law. You had better wake up and get your eyes open. Signed, A taxpayer. Mayor Mark Andersons Statement It is seldom that I receive an unsigned letter. This and other unsigned letters are written by cowards who dare not sign the vicious things they writs. The Provo City Commission la always accessible and ready to listen. There is no excuse for the writing of unsigned letters. People of character will not do it. It is the duty of each and every cltixen to not only report violations of the law but to aign a complaint. Prosecution will be had without expense to the complaining witness. Mark Anderson, Mayor.

Collins Municipal Plant 'Facts about fictions concerning the Jews, a small booklet, written by Sigmund Livingston, chairman of the league is just off the press, and is being distributed with the avowed objective of immunizing the American mind against the modern savage passion, now prevalent in some foreign lands of tyranizing the Jew. More than 550,000 Jews have lost their citizenship in Germany, 200,000 in Austria, and smaller numbers in other countries. The worlds population of Jews is approximately 15,500,000, of which almost one third are being persecuted in the lands where they now live, such as in Hungary (441.000), Rumania (984,000), Poland, (3,000,000) and in Austria and Germany. If Nazi influence continues over South and East Europe more than one half of all Jews will be under the ban, subject to driving from their homes. To be able to face unwelcome facts is, properly speaktest of taman intelligence reminds the booklet. the ing, The following Facts about Fiction Concerning the Jews are here set down, more or less at random from the booklet, giving readers of the Utah Valley News some idea of the nature of the attacks being made upon the Jews and the answers being given and the propaganda being used in anti-defamati- on ing the worker and the general community in which it is located. For years, or until Just recently, the electric rates in Logan were only half the rates charged In Provo or Salt Lake City. We can furnish you with tbe names of several communities that have wiped out the city tax levy entirely because of the profits made from municipal plants charging rates below the rates charged by the Utah Power and Light Company. We shall welcome an opportunity at any time to present to you or to your organization Information that we hare garnered on this subject. I am a believer In organized labor and Its power to accomplish good but surely the Utah Federation of Labor has been misled in taking a stand against municipally owned electric plants. I sincerely hope that your organization will see fit to reconsider this question. Respectfully yours. Mark Anderson. Mayor.

Main Charge Again! Jew Thu main rharge against tne Jews today Is that they are communists and promote communism. This has been reiterated so many limes that most people, even university professors, believe It. Many men, without Investigation, his parents were estranged have used their Itafluence and Judaism long before hio preatige to lambaat the Jew, and have themselves repeated the charge until they believe It. although no foundation for it exist In their own Investigations. The truth la, says the booklet, that the Jews are not common lata, nor do they promote com munlsm. There are Jewa who are communists Just aa communists are In every sect and group. The total of all Jews who are communists and who believe in communism la so small that It ia negligible. The leaders of communism in America are Earl C. William Browder, Foster.
