F02TY TIAh OF CONTINUOUS COMMJKITT SERVICE Advertising VOLUME 41 BINGHAM CANYON, UTAH. THURSDAY, APRIL 30. 1931 ' No. 18 Commission Shows Good Foresight One of the most commendable steps taken in our public affairs, which has come to our attention re-cently, Is the action of the Salt ,. Lake County commissioner In call- - 1 Ing a conference of all departments : ' of the county together In an en deavor to make the department budgets come within the anticipat-ed revenues of the county. No institution or business can long survive which spends more than it receives and such a course can lead to but one end failure. In a time like the present when property values have decreased and revenues diminished proportion a te-- , ly, it Is the part of wisdom and fore sight to make a survey and the adjustments before a de-ficit is created. Conservative estimates Indicate a decrease of $300,000 In property taxes in this county the presert year. With so many flxeed charges it is going to be a big Job to reduce department expenditures. In so large an amount, but It is the only safe and business like way out To bring this about, salaries will have to be cut or employees laid off, or both, and to do either Is not a pleasant task. Outweighing this, however, Is the plain duty of 'h? commissioners to find the necessary means of keeping expenditures of the county within It's receipts.

Herbert Hoover, President of the United States of America, do call upon all Governors of the States of the Union, and all Governors of territories and possessions of the United States to declare to their people that May Day should be ttseed wherever possible as Uuld Health Day, for the consideration of all public and private measures by wheih the health of our children may be conserved and advanced. I especially commend for consideration on that day "The Children's Charter" as set forth by the White House Gmference on Child Health and Protection. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be af-fixed.

At the half the game stood 2-- 1 for Copperltes, Creer and W. Oarr each having scored for the home team and N. Carlson tallying for1 O. S. L. In the second half of the fray which was faster than the first was a remarkable exhibition of offen--' clve and defenelve. The ball was in Copper territory most of the time' but was Intercepted so successfully by the viistors that they were held to a single tally for the period. This was one by Tyson. This one was offset by a beauti-ful drive by T. Carlson. The mix ing was fast and' furious from this point but no one was able to put over another counter. Many thrills and spills kept the fans roaring. The work of Smlh, young high school athlete, Redmond and Guy-thwa- it figured promlenently In the Copper victory. Capt. Carlson led for the visitors.

Discard ol Silver Called A Mistake NOTE : The following, taken from Sklllings Mining Review is one of the most comprehen-sive, logical and timely discus-sions of the silver question to come to our attention. We are, therefore, passing it along to our readers in the belief they will appreciate it as we do Ed. With the scarcity of gold and the decline in the price of silver assign-- , ed as important causes of the world-wide economic depression, the old problem of gold versus silver as media of exchange Is enjoying new popularity as a subject of discus-sion In financial circles, said the Xew York Evening Post a few weeks ago. According to a leading New York authority on silver, mankind may discover ,that the discarding of sil-ver was a gigantic blunder and that efforts to extend the dominion of the gold standard while the source of the metal is as limited at is is now are a mistake. "leaders of finance", he said, "are decrying the growing scarcity of gold nnd preaching the gold standard all in the self same breath, 'seemingly oblivious or ig-norant of the fact that they are treating more demand for the yel-low metal. . Gold Advances Sharply. "Gold in turn is reflecting this scarcity and is soaring by leaps and bounds when expressed In terms of securities and commodities in all the markets of the world." Silver, he pointed out, has been chosen as the medium of exchange in the Orient because it Is the on-ly practical yardstick. The lowly status of the average man in the East is such, he said, the gold is Impracticable for the resaon it can not he minted into the small unit needed by the Orlentol for his mod-est transaction. "Preaching the gold standard to the Orient may be fine in theory, but it is unworkable In practice," he contiued.

Brae-ke- n arrived In Bingham Monday where he was greeted by many friends. The doctor spent several days visiting points of Interest In Nevada and southern Utah on his return trip. Dr. Inglesby of the .Bingham Stage Line Joined him in Nevada. They f visited Las Vegas and Hoover Dam townsite and spent a few days at 8t. George. THE SAFETY IDEA "The law has contributed to a cer-tain extent to make industry safe," said Alfred E, Smith recently, " but all regulatory statutes have a line where they stop. It is at this point that human and personal endeavor must take up the undertaking." "Human and personal endeavor, has made remarkable progress in ad-vancing , safety, particularly in large Industries such as the railroad and the electric, fiut it still has a long way to go. In small manufacturing busines-- i sess in many lines accident rates are far beyond what the "normal" should, be. Industrial accidents constitute a gigantie "waste" item in our business records. This is not altogether the fault of the businesses themselves. Great steps have been taken In guarding machin-ery and in making plants more safe mechanically. But the maximum safe-ty result from the absorption of the "accident prevention idea," by the indi-vidual worker. He must develop an in-nate conschmsness that finally becom-es ii rt of his instinct, as to what is safe and what is not.
