THURSDAY, JULY 16, 1931 No. & .... - Protect Industry - Of Bingham PROTECT LOCAL INDUSTRY - What Is the attitude of the cltl-en- g of Bingham, the business and professional people, the clubs and organizations, with regard to pre-serving existing enterprises and de-veloping new ones? What is being 4(t done individually or collectively to foster the general upbuilding and expansion of legitimate and needed enterprises? With no desire to be critical, our observations have forced us to the conclusion that a substantial num-ber of our citizens have drifted in- - to a state of indifference as to the . general welfare of Bingham. It is disturbing to observe that so large a number take little or no interest in anything except their Immediate and personal gains. One of the most striking illustra-tions of this condition Is to be found In a little sign on lower main street which reads, "Building for Sale." This sign is on the building owned and occupied by the Royal Laundry. Here is an industry that in nnmer-- ! nus ways, is essential to the cora-- munlty. The owners have Invested thousands of dollars in buildings, equipment, land trucks, etc., in ord-er to render local patrons a high clsss nnd efficient- wrvli-- The ROYAL Is a large taxpayer within the county and the town of Bingham. It has a substantial pay-roll which furnishes employment and the wages of 12 local people who patronize and spend these, earn-ings with local business firms. If btls firm suspends business here it will be because of the limit-ed patronage received and the in-difference of this community. We believe this Institution has striven to give its patrons an effi-cient service at the lowest price consistent with good business. Some however maintain a "don't care" ar- - tltnde. Such a policy is short sight-ed and destructive to the best In-- 1 terests of the community. Every time you send your business to the other man's town you are helping to build up that town at the ex-pense of your own. The same prin-cipal applies, of course, to .other business as well. We are only siting the case of the laundry as an lllus-- . .. tratlon of harm caused by lack of loyalty and indifference to the wel-fare of local enterprle. In times like the present, when all business is suffering from less patronage on account of decreased nil rolls, it is of the utmost import-ance to the Industrial community to maintain as large a payroll as possible. To keep the home town dollar circulating AT HOME. If you would see local prosperity return, each must do his part to bring it about Imagine what it would mean to this community If all the money earned here and spent, was spent In Bingham, 'We cannot too strongly emphasize the Importance to thl community of ft more and loyal and eooiierative disposition on the part of everyone to the end that local institutions are maintained and pay rolls continued. This is Not a Time For Isms K No one questions Ihe present period of depression. Yet, It Is not a new development in economics. Since history begun there have been periods of inflation, followed by those of deflation. In spite of all modern legislation, theories, re-search and plans, the centuries-ol- d laws of supply uuil demaud continue to exert themselves. A shortage in the supply means higher prices. Higher prices nre a stimulus to pro-duction. A stimulated production cannot Is? increased beyond a cer-tain extent. Soon there is a large surplus money ttccomes scarce. A period of dcpresNlon exists. All these steps were recently tak-en. Dining and after the war, sources of supply In Europe were crippled. A huge demand was creat-ed for Amerlcitn product. Factories sprang up over night. Wages were doubled and Price soared and practically everyone was endowed with pltney. Then the Incvltiible. Conditions In Europe were restored to normal. Consump-tion In this country could not be further Increased. There existed a decreasing demand an Increasing supply. As a result, the present de-pression. In resnect It nnneara tirnrlultiir that very few during prosperity fnaesaw the likelihood of a change In conditions or made any prepara-tion for a rulny day. The majority went ahead siKMiding beyond their means, living from day to day, with perfect assurance that such prosper-ity would continue forever. For them there appeared no tomorrow to be prepared for, but like grass-hoppers ihey sang and frolicked In the sunshine of plenty with no thot of a possible winter. Many suffer during the present times and the deprivation seems doubly difficult after having experi-enced a time of comparative ease. Though there is no doubt that the times arevhardy It Is" wondered If the reports are not exaggerated to an extent It appears forgotten that there has ulways existed a certain amount of unemployment. Thet-- was never a time when there were not some who were more fortunate than others in the possession of wordly goods. ' One of the real dangers of the present period Is that many will be carried to extremes by present con-ditions and be brought to accept unsound theories. Certain organiza-tions, representing sinister in-fluences, are taking advantuge of conditions to Hpread their propag-anda and make converts to their cause. An example of one that has (Continued on Inst Page) K - The Scout Cabin The Scout Cabin in Butterfleld canyon, erected primarily for the use of the (oy and girl Scouts of Biughain district,' may also I used by other organizations of Bingham. Permission for such use by other organizations, may be obtained by calling Mr. II. C. MeShane, Phones 80 or 200 Bingham. In this way there will be no conflicting dates for Its use. tOPNOTCHERS ; by kTt A WX- m mm mmmmm Yvk f ' plt ft TPULEP HIM --JUNE 12 1930 4 .,)V A JW ON JUNE I9ib THE fcAX v 1 1 A NEW YORK fflttinC lfyS&&fa&riA W la CHAMPIONSHIP ife A A 1 Building Activity ' Main street has had the appear-ance of old time bluldlng boom for the past few weeks. Large forces of workmen hRve been eiiKiiged in of the Copper King and Koyat Candy Company buildings which were destroyed in the Are lust May. The superst met ure of the Royal Candy building Is now well up with the second story. Peter Pltcheos, owner of this proierty says that the building will he three stories In height when Completed. The erection of this building, and fhe replacement of the Copiter King makes u valuable improvement in the appearance of centrul Main street. Excavutlons for the basement of the new building to be erected on the north side of the First Nation-al bank building, have been com-pleted and the pouring of the foun-dation and basement which will con-tain the large boiler room, will start in a few days. This building will also lie of three stories, con-structed of brick and concrete and will le ready for occupancy In about three months. Mr. Bolognese. will equip this building with large boilers of a sine sufficient to furnish heat not only for this building, but also forhls adjoining building and his buildings located on the opposite side of the street It has been suggested that pro-hibition agents be forbidden to taste alleged liquor when securing evid-ence for Volstead proscecutions. This sounds like a violation of the Scriptural injunction against muzzl-ing the ox that treads out the grain. A FREE PEOPLE? Americans are a fee people. Free, that Is, if they carefully obey some twenty or twenty-fiv- e thousand laws and regulations, and are prompt d the orders of the various bur cutis, commissions and boards that preside over their destinies. Probably ,n other nation has oume in for so much legislation as the United States. Quantity, rather hnn quality, seems to be he Ideal of our s. Whether it Is a matter of owning a revolver for sport or protection, or attending a Sunday nlcnie. we are llffhle to come in conflict with the forces of law and order. Apparently we have leen working on the theory that human nature can lie changed by legislation. At present more than 3,000,000 persons nre affiliated with movements hav-ing to do with minding other peole's business. The self-style- d reformer and moralist have been supreme. And the result has not been a more stable and peaceful society, but an amazing orgy of law breaking and cimlmiiity. More laws make more crime, seems to le a new Ameri-can axiom.

TAXPAYERS t'RGE REFUSAL OF UJVY INCREASE r Through its chairman . A Al-corn, the taxpayers' Jordan district committee urged the County com-missioners not to yield to the plea of the Jordan school board In their renewed petition for an increase in the property tas levy of 0 mill. Originally the petition of the board to the commission, was denied on the protest of a large number of the members of the Taxpayers' as-sociation. The school board then presented their petition to the State Board of Equalization. Tills body took no action on the petition claim-ing itself without jurisdiction in the matter. The school board ahs again hrot the matter before tM County com-missioners in a final effort to raise sufficient fund to. meet operating costs estimated to be necessary for the fiscal year. Ik-g-e Elimination of Kindergarten, Playground Superdslon The Jordan budget requires an expenditure of $482,750, almost $100,000 below last year's budget, but still requiring. $297,750 to be raised from district taxes. Under a 7.2 mill levy, the maxi-mum allowed by law, the school dis-trict estimates only $272,614.85 will be raised, which, coupled with funds from the state school tas, the state high school tax and miscellaneous sources, will still be insufficient to meet budget requirements, The taxpayers' letter, , however, states that. $280,000 can be raised from district taxes nnder the maxi-mum levy, that $152,000 Instead of $141,000 can be expected from the state school fund, which will pro-duce a total revenue of $444,000. To keep within this revenue, the letter urged the elimination of kindergarten, which would save $21,780, and the discontinuance of summer sessions, which would cut the budget another $4,000.00.
