to !lope that none of the breed may survive No pampered pets one needs commend and yet few people comprehend' in canines kind and brave the love and loyalty that blend to make the dog man's faithful friend and most devoted slave 'Toughen up buckle down carry on to victory" This is the slogan adopted for 1943 by the Boy Scouts of America Beginning today local scouts will hold their twenty-fourt- h annual powwow Stripping Axis Powers and for three days will conduct exercises on the university campus Classes are scheduled for study and training in good citizenship loyal service and national defense Because of a conflict which may be prolonged for an indefinite time many of these youngsters may be on the firing line before peace is achieved Originally the word "scout" meant a messenger it was afterward applied to watchmen who secured information essential to the security of comrades by reconnoitering the location and movements of an enemy Of recent years since scout organizations have enrolled millions of young people and formulated a code of usefulness the word "scout" has come to mean a "doer"—a dependable performer of good deeds Boy Scouts are not only keeping themselves physically fit mentally alert and morally clean but they are doing daily good turns to others Through discipline systematic behavior comradely competition cooperation and fellowship they are not only setting a worthy example to mankind but are developing a tform of constructive citizenship upon which the world must pin its hopes of universal and lasting peace Were there some Indueethent or form of compulsion by which all youngsters in the nation could te enrolled in this movement the problem of juvenile delinquency would be easy to solve There will come a day probably not while persons now living may see and enjoy it when scouting will exercise a beneficial influence on tids 'nation and all others that are entitled to be called civilized when the way will be cleared for patriotism not tainted by partisanship and prejudice when scouts will assume civic responsibilities to be borne with the fidelity and fortitude of scouts During the powwow now beginning the boys will hear addresses by Dr LeRoy E Cowles president of the university by Dr George R Hill by Arthur Gaeth and by Dr I O Horsfall vice chairman of the training committee of the council Entertainments will be furnished by students to include picture shows dinners and debates It is to be hoped such gatherings are being enjoyed throughout the state and the nation Upon their incentives and participants will rest the hopes of many discouraged pilgrims for the dawn of a new day on a better world of Planes "Let dogs delight to bark and bite For God bath made them so" But peevish men who vent their spite On helpless dogs

cannot help marveling at the lack of humane sentiments of and Submarines Former President Herbert Hoover's suggestion that "the victorious united nations should strip the axis powers of their airplane factories after the war and organize an international police force to keep the world free from aggression" while excellent advice is not original It has been urged repeatedly and with varying degrees of emphasis by most of the responsible leaders of the allied forces as well as by spokesmen for other supporters of the democratic way of living' But that is what our aerial forces are doing as fast as it has been humanly posbible Every raid over Germany France Italy and occupied territory under axis control is an effort to strip such factories of their potentialities and products without waiting for the end of the conflict Accomplishment of this purpose is the reason of the raids one reads about— including the 60 that have extended to Berlin After the war is over all remnants of aggressive savagery must be obliterated of course but the allies cannot afford to wait for an armistice since continuous "stripping" is essential to victory And when it comes to cleaning up "after the war" several objectionable implements of the axis monster will need attention The submarine fleets and their bases the nazi military machine the slave pens of tyranny in which prisoners of war are scourged and tortured the kindergartens of hatred and heartlessness Where children are taught to lie kill and betray comrades and kinsmen—all these infamous adjuncts of moral depravity and pagan barbarism will have to be totally eradicated if the future is to be made safe for mankind and peace is to be established on earth "Neither a Hitler nor a Tojo would be so ambitious if there were a prospect of a continuous air attack until such persons came to reason" said the former president But neither of these malefactors nor their idolatrous accomplices nor their prospective successors could be reformed or civilized by depriving them of their methods and mechanisms of present-da- y destruction Just as Hitler suddenly rose to power on his blitzkrieg and Hirohito flew into fame on wings that carried death 'across the Pacific so will new demons with new devices rise to scourge humanity Such poisonous growths must be exterminated completely and similat sprouting suffocated in a better cultivated

Too often we find low morale narrowness and unfriendliness" "I think nowhere else in the world will you find people so unfriendly and slow to come out of their shells as they are in Utah" We observe that most of the contributors of the above remarks do not sign their full names to the article We wonder why? Are they ashamed of what they write? It is very strange that after coming from old Denmark to Utah in 1883 we have not discovered all of these vety undesirable qualifications a n d faults that the people are accused of but that after these many years we should have strangers to come in and remind us of them We have always believed that we lived among a very fine people and am still satisfied notwithstanding what some stranger may say to the contrary that we are living among a very friendly orderly respectable and industrious peo- ple - Let the stranger and newcomer remember that there are faults in every man and manmade institution Look for them and they are found There are also virtues in every man and e institution Look for them and you will find them Knocking is one of the easiest things to do It only requires a thimbleful of brains C V Hansen man-mad- - According to a very reliable source the Italians say they would have ended the war lOng ago if they had not been greatly outnumbered by the Germans Met Bill Hawkes former member of the local police force on the street Monday I hadn't seen him since the summer of 1938 when I bumped into him in Los Angeles where he now lives so 1 was sttimped for a moment "Come on" said Bill - "can't you tell me who I am?"

e U Agencies Map ControL Of War Profits S By David Lawrence WASHIN GTON — Four government agencies concerned with taking excessive profits out of war contracts have agreed upon a set of principles which will guide them in renegotiating billions of dollars of war orders The war and navy departments the maritime commission and the treasury departrnent have set forth this code to aid business men in adjusting their policies when dealing with the final prices to be charged the government for making the munitions of war Recently the senate comomittee investinational defense headed by Senator gating Truman of Missouri Democrat issued a very constructive- - report on the whole renegotiation problem and the new pronouncement by the four war agencies follows the course outlined by the coommittee in so fAr' as it is practicable at this time The whole 'renegotiation practice is in an evolutionary stage and it will take some time to correct all the delays and overcome the difficulties inherent in the remaking of billions of dollars of contracts The theory back of renegotiation la that the government cannot tell in advance and often the manufacturer cannot tell either just what certain munitiorui making will cost so what amounts to a tentative contract is made subject to renegotiation when the production is far enough along to make a more equitable estimate of costs—fair to the government and the taxpayers and fair to the manufacturers Methods at Hand It has been argued that excess profits can be recovered by either the present high tax rates or even higher rates but the Truman committee wisely points out that even though the amounts refunded would have been recovered to the extent of about SO per cent by taxes there are certain instances where percentages and tax rates do not prevent excessive profits in particular types of contracts and where large volume is involved The Truman committee says that the renegotiation procedure can perform a vital function which increased taxes cannot costs at perform—first in keeping over-a- ll a minimum as against a tendency to let costs ripe because they are deductible anyway foil tax purposes and second in providing effective incentives to keep production at the maximum Many able men have been brought to Washington to carry out the renegotiation procedures The work has been hampered by a belief among some business men that the law would be changed The Truman committee warns against any such probability The new set of principles—to be added to as experience demonstrates the need—gives the first vital step toward uniformity of action by all four agencies dealing with war contracts The statement says in part: Principles Set Out "In considering whether costs or profits are excessive the price adjustment boards are guided by the following broad principles: "(a) That the stimulation of quantity production is of primary importance "(b) That reasonable profits in every case should be determined with reference to the particular performance factors present without limitation or restriction by any fixed formula with respect to rate of profit 4t or otherwise "(c) That the profits of the contractor ordinarily- will be determined on his war business- as a whole for a fiscal period rather than on specific contracts separately with the possible exception of Certain construction contracts Fixed price contracts are negotiated separately from fees on fixed-fee contracts -(d) That as volume increases the margin of profit should decrease This is particularly true in those cases where the amount of business is abnormally large In relation to the amount of the contractor's own capital and company-owne- d plant and where such production is made possible only by capital and plant furnished by the government “(e) That in determining what margin of profit is fair consideration should be given to the corresponding profits In prewar base years of the particular contractor and for the Industry especially in cases where the war products are substantially like prewar products It should not be assumed however that under war conditions a contractor is entitled to as great a margin of profit as that obtained under competitive conditions in normal times "(f) That the reasonableness of profits should be determined before provision for federal income and excess profits taxes "(g) That a contractor's right to a reasonable profit and his need for working capital should be distinguished A contractor should not be allowed to earn excessive profits on war contract' merely because he lacks adequate working capital in relation to a greatly increased volume of business?
