Show MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE Delta, Utah, Thurs., Aug. 7, 1952 'deog rom other ditor , AN EDITORIAL entitled "Hid-ing IN Behind a Slogan," the Ber-lin Reporter, Berlin, N.H., had this to say recently concerning freedom of the press: "The 'freedom of the press' is one of the fundamental rights of a free people but is not an exclusive possession of the press. "For this reason, it is important for the people of this country to un-derstand what the phrase means. It Is certainly apparent that some newspaper men have the idea that it extends immunity to the press in a manner that far transcends the right to print articles wtihout cen-sorship or penalty other than those represented by libel laws. "The freedom of the press does not relieve the press of Its obligation to pay taxes, to ad-just employment according to the laws of the land and to com-ply wih regulations issued to protect the nation In an emer-gency. Neither is It a cloak to conceal the facts about the ownership of publications, in violation of the law that re-quires disclosure of ownership." Diminishing Returns From the Evening Journal, Wash, ington, Iowa: "Concern over the tax problem lies largely in the fact that th ' law of diminishing returns has set : in. Put federal taxes up another notch and the increase probably won't produce any more revenue . . . Business can be taxed out of business. And that is precisely what is beginning to happen. The process can kill the goose that lays the golden eggs, and the tax goose is beginning to look pale around its eyes. Moderation in all things, saith the sages. This applies to taxes, as ' well as cayenne pepper or choco-late candy." Private Enterprise From the Evening Banner, Green-ville, Texas: "It is not our purpose to rush to the defense of the private power J companies, or to plead the cause of public power operations. But we L think the people are Intelligent jl enough to decide what they want and what they do not want. And we I) are convinced that private enter- - 1 prise has made this country at ,i great as it is." j WW Wlllll IT'S THE HEAT . . .

Wheat Growers Protected CCC Loans Wheat farmers will be acting in their own interests if they make Lhe fullest use of available price supports in marketing this year's crop, Mont B. Robins, Chairman of the Millard County Production and Marketing Administration Com -- mittee said today. The chairman explains that ab-out one-thir- d of the nation's wheat crop goes to market at harvest time, mostly in July and August. This strains shipping facilities, ov-erloads the markets, and tends to force wheat prices below those prevailing during the remainder of the year. If a grower is in a position to store his wheat, either in a com-mercial warehouse or on the farm, he can get a price support loan or a purchase agreement, thus assuring himself of a price at least 90 per cent of parity. If the price of wheat is higher than support price during the time the wheat is under loan he can sell it on the open market, pay his loan and take his profit. If the price is below support lev-el at loan maturity time, he can deliver his wheat to CCC in full payment of his loan. The 1952 basic loan rates for Millard County are as follows: Wheat $1.95 per bushel for U. S. Grade No. 1; barley $1.10 per tush-e- l for U. S. Grade No. 2 or bet-ter; and oats $0.86 per bushel for U. S. Grade No. 3 or better. To qualify for a loan, the grain must meet minimum grade requirements and be stored in eligible farm storage or in a warehouse which has a storage agreement with the Commodity Credit Corporation. The rate will be reduced for lower grades and increased for Hard Wheat containing 11 or more protein. The loan rate for grain stored in a warehouse will be reduced to cover storage charges to April 30, 1953. There is no storage allow-ance for farm-store- d grain deliver-ed to Commodity Credit Corpora-tion at maturity. Grain under loan may be re-deemed and sold by repaying the amount loaned plus interest; or the loan may be fully satisfied by delivering to Commodity Credit Corporation at maturity the quan-tity and quality of grain placed un der loan. Loans bear interest at the rate of 3 per annum and mature April 30, 1953. There is a charge of 1 cent per bushel under a farm-store- d loan and y2 cent per bushel under a warehouse-store- d loan or purchase agreement. The final date to complete a loan or purchase agreement is January 31, 1953. Applications are to be made at the county PMA office. EiBgageifiaeiit Is AiisiOEiucod Mr. and Mrs. Lee Wilson, of Hinckley, wish to announce the engagement of their daughter, Ir-ene Lewis, to Max L. Ohristensen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alma J. Chris-tensen. The bride-to-b- e is a graduate of Hinckley high school. Mr. Chris-tense- n is a graduate of Delta high school. Both plan to attend col-lege this fall, and a wedding date will be set later. Mr. and Mrs. Armond Ogden, of Sutherland, had a family party this week with all of their family home for the first time in five years. Home at this time are Mr. and Mrs. Victor Finkem, and four children, from Iowa, and DM Harold Ogden, who has been sta-tioned in Japan. ESSE'- Three Thrifty Homemakers met at the home of their leaders, Nielson Tuesday July 29, at 5 p. m. ' They had a lesson on "Relax and go to Sleep". They have com-pleted their year of Home Improve ment and the next meeting will begin their first year of cooking. Refreshments were served. . Chatter Box Dear Suzy, It strikes me that the Jaycees are rather a selfish group of young men. Here they put on a race meet with a bunch of boats putting all about the reservoir, then they charge for the spectat-ors to see the races, then they are over and the people leave, and then the Jaycees put on the best part of the show for their own amusement. It seems that when the smoke blew away and the reservoir went back to its usual calm and serene self the Jaycees decided to have an aquatic show for themselves. Keith Dalton, Don Bird and Tex Searle got into a boat and were taking Patty Dalton and Goldie Bishop on a water skiing tour of the lake. All went well until the boat made a sharp turn and tos-sed both young women into the water. Now getting tossed into the wat er is not so bad in itself as the water is cool and nice to fall into, but it does upset one's sense of decency when one is tossed into the water and finds that the force of the fall had ripped one's bath-ing suit from one and that the bathing suit had sunk to the bot-tom of the reservoir. That was the situation that faced Goldie when she came up for air. She noticed that the suit was gone and that there were no barrels handy in which she could crawl into for a trip home for new clothes. Noting Goldie's predicament brought the three gallant Jaycees quickly on hand to render all the assistance they could to pull Gol-die into the boat, which she did not want and preferred the cover-ing power of the water to getting suntan all over by riding in the boat as she was. All kinds of arguments were us-ed by the men as to why she should get into the boat and it was hard for the men to under-stand why Goldie still demurred. While the men were giving ad-vice and reasons to Goldie, Patty, unnoticed because she still had her suit on, was in trouble and calling for help, but the gallant men paid no attention to her and let her call for help until she was black in the face. It was not until Goldie swam over to Patty to give her aid that the men noticed Patty in the water and Patty was promptly dragged from the depths and put safely in the boat. It was not learned what finally happened to Goldie and whether she had to tread water until the evening shadows fell and wheth-er she was brought another suit that she could use to cover her up. It is presumed that she made it safely to new clothes and away from the prying eyes of this trio of men. The Jaycees are wondering if they can put on another boat race next year, but I am afraid the cash customers will remember that the best, part of the show comes after the main event and will wait until then and won't have to pay a ticket as the show is supposed to over. On the other hand if they can get a group of women to put on a water carnival with various stunts, including a Lady Godiva act someplace in the program, It is a foregone conclusion that they will play to a packed beach, with Keith, Tex and Don on the front row. The Jaycees have grandoise thoughts and ideas on how to fix up the beach and grounds so as to make a permanent place for boating, picnicking and whatever one wants. The first thing they will have to do though, is change the name of the place. It has been called ,at times when one could think of it, "Lake View", but when I was down there Sun-day all I heard from the many people there was "Sunova Beach it's hot." Toots.
