Chief of Signal Service Says
Uncle Sam Should Have at
Least Twenty.
UNITED STATES BEHIND

Is Dangerous to Wait and See
What the Other Fellow Does
Before Acting.

WASHINGTON. Nov. Twenty aero
planes at least arc needed for the United
States government service, says General
James Allen, chief signal officer Of the
army, in his annual report. made public
tonight.
These aeroplanes should have been on
regular practice at different points in
the country throughout the year." con-
tlnues General Allen. ''They should be
present in camps of instruction for regu-
lar troops. and organized. twenty aero
planes would provide but two for each
camp NJ Instruction
"To operate this number would require
at least twenty specially learned officers
chime must carry at least one observer,
which, experience has shown, will re-

Uncle Sam Behind.
General Allen deprecates the fact that
although the United States was the first
nation officially to recognize the aero
kept pace with the world in the develop
ment OF military aeronautics.
Summed up the aero equipment OF the
United states ,ssy army consist consists Of one small
aeropIane and three small captive bal
looms. says the general. The signal corps

men on duty in connection with aero
nautics. and the chief signal officer says
that until the corps is increased by leg

more officers and. men for the training

Sees Danger in Waiting.
| General Allen combats the officially re-
peated assertion that the United States,
| because OF its isolated position. is not
| likely to become involved in war and
| that, therefore. the most economical pro-
| cedure In aerial navigation Is to walt un-

pertinent and development TO foreign

AS matter of fact that paving of South State
street done entirely by the Utah Light Railway
company at cost of over one hundred thousand dol
lars. 1t did not cost Salt Lake county dollar.
The most conspicuous bit of road building under
the present county administration the boulevard
which John c. Mackay caused to be constructed to his
home He even had the audacity to electric light this
highway!
Instead Of letting contracts for the construction
of highways in the county, the city lets contracts
for paving Streets Mackays system has been to do this
work through his favortes, without advertising for
bids The result is that the cost has been enormous
the basis of the mileage,
If the money charged up TO roads and bridges in
Salt Lake county during the last ten years had been
expended with the view of getting results rather than
furnishing jobs for supporters of the grating ring of
county office holders fully forty miles of county
roads would have been macadamized in irst-class
The money required to pave single mile of streets
of Salt Lake City would macadamize more than ten
miles Of county roads, bridges included
If progressive and not partisan administration had
been had in the county. every important highway
would now be macadamized and paid for
The people of Salt Lake county can well afford to
trust the administration of county for two years to
the Americans If they do not make record that is
pleasing in every important detail, it will be easy
matter TO vote the Americans out of power in the next
general election.
Sufficient revenues are paid into the county treas
urer make such record that the taxpayers of the
county will again trust their public affairs to
the corrupt Church Republican politicians OF the
Mackay, Fussy Jimmie, Mutton Bill Jones stripe
And when the books opened and the rascality
in the county has been laid bare every taxpayer who
believes in an honest, ghtforward administration,
will be delighted that they not hoodwinked by
the deceits that daily printed in the Herald

You remember that Mr.. Bryans great
complaint was that We never could set

the fund for state school purposes because this is
used to maintain the Agricultural college, the state

Men who are familiar with the work of these Of
fees say there at least fifty per cent help
ployed than is needed-that the Offices used to pay
political obligations and to keep favortes the rolls
The most shameful stuffng Of the Offices is in the
clerk s. sheriff's and recorders The annual leak
through these offices is something 1t would
macadam several miles Of county roads!
The idea of nineteen deputy clerks, twepty-seven
deputy sherifs ia addition to the fifty political depu
ties, and twenty-five clerks in the recorders office to
record an average Of but about 1000 instruments d
month, is preposterous.
One Of the deputy sheriffs works exclusively for
the Luke collection agency Some of the clerks in the
recorders office do abstractng business for friends
in the real estate business. And all this at county
