RESUME TRAFFIC
ACROSS CUTOFF
Trains Over Lake viii Be
Started by Southern Pacific
This Morning.

Traffic over the Lucin cutoff of the
Southern Pacific, where considerable
damage was caused by Monday nights
heavy windstorm, viii be restored some
time today. 1t had been hoped to open
the line 10 traffic about midnight, but late
last night it was stated by Assistant
Superintendent Thomas Rowlands of the
Southern Pacific at Ogden that the re-
opening would be delayed until some time
today.
The damage to the cutoff was not
nearly so great as early reports from the
scene Of the storm had it. The worst
damage was sustained on the eastern end
Of the cutoff, where heretofore trouble
OF this nature has been unknown. The
embankment was washed away in a
number CT places. due to the small rock
used in filling in at this point. At the
western end Of the lake, where large
rocks are used to fill in, very little dam
age was caused. The trestle was not in
Jured in the least, and the result has
been a speedy restoration of the cutoff
TO through traffic.
On Instructions received in Ogden late
last night from Division Superintendent
Z. c. Manson, who is at the scene OF
trouble, Southern Pacific trains will be
operated over the trestle beginning early
this morning.

CALLS ASSESSORS
into CONVENTION
State Auditor viii Ask County
Officials to Come Here
in June.

State Auditor Jesse D. JeWkes will issue
call this week TO the county assessors,
auditor, clerks and treasurers of Utah
to attend a convention in Salt Lake at
which topics of interest TO these officers
will be taken up. The convention will
be held on June 1 and in Salt Lake.
All county officers will have to be in
their home towns by the first Monday
III June, when the county boards OF
equalization viii meet, but the first Mon
day does not come until June g. thus al
lowing three days to return home after
the close of the convention here.
An effort to have the convention held
has been made for more than a year past,
and State Auditor Jewlzes believes it will
be of the greatest possible benefit to the
county officials, and to these of the state
who came in contact with the county Of
Ulcers. One OF the chief hopes of the
convention will be to establish perma-
nent organization for the purpose Of
holding annual conventions in Salt Lake
or some other city, when matters con-
nected with the assessment and cOlleC-
ton Of taxes viii be taken up, ana q uni
form system of bookkeeping arranged

the counties of the state, to learn the
desires of the county officials in regard
to the convention, and the program will
not be announced until he returns. II is
believed most Of the county officials will
attend the convention Talks will be
made by many Of the officials. and IL IS
possible that some taxation experts from

liver addresses on the methods used in
their states.

GOVERNOR NAMES
COMMITTEE OF SIX
Prominent Citizens Will Push
Plan to Buy BattIeShip
Service.
SCHOOL CHILDREN'S GIFT
INTENTION is THAT PUPILS
SHALL BE PRINCIPAL DONORS.

Two of the most prominent educators
of the state are named among the six
chosen by Governor William Spry on the
committee to provide ways and means
for the collection of money from the
school children of Utah to buy a silver
service for the battleship Utah. which
will soon be placed in commission in the
United States navy. The committee
named by the governor yesterday is as
follows: D; c; lacking of Salt Lake,
chairman; A. G. Nelson, state superin-
tendent Of public instruction of the Salt
Lake City schools; Mrs. A W McCune
Of Salt Lake and Miss Fay Loose of
Provo.
The idea of Governor spry is that the
school children of the state contribute
most of the money toward the silver SER
vice for the battleship bearing the name
Of the state. The Salt Lake school board
PASSED resolution some years ago that
no contributions would be permitted from
the school children in the city, and this
was broken only once when they were
allowed to contribute to the fund collected
at the time of the San Francisco fire
three years ago. 1t will demand another
breaking of this rule in case the board
decides to allow the children to make
contributions for the silver service fund.
There are about 100000 children in the
grade schools, high schools and higher
institutions of the state to contribute. and
it is estimated that they will average
about 10 cents each, which would mean a
fund of $1,000 for the silver service for
the battleship.
The committee named yesterday by the
governor will hold a meeting in the near
future for the purpose of arranging plans
for the collection of the funds from the
school children. the purpose being to have
the money subscribed before the close of
the present school year in JuIe. The
plans have not been worked out thor
oughly, but the committee will take the
matter up with the school boards in
every county of the state for the purpose
of getting response as soon as possible.

AIDS IN GETTING
ACCURATE CENSUS
Statistics Committee of Com
merCiaI Club Asks All Mem
berS to Help.

In an effort to bring about an accurate
as possible census Of Salt Lake the sta
tistics committee of the Commercial club
has issued d personal letter to every mem
Der of the organization, requesting that
all possible assistance be lent in this re-
spect. The statistics committee met at
noon yesterday and named a sub-cOm-
mittee, made up Of the following; W. j.
Bateman, chairman; George +. Forces
ter George w. Goddard, .. S. Jackson
r. d. Seymour. J. L. Yundt, W. d. BONN
and Joseph Meltzer.
This subcommittee met later in the
day and drafted the letter which viii be
sent out today. The purpose of naming
the subcommittee was to have it adopt
any other means 1t saw fit to create a
public sentiment in favor OF the census
and TO eliminate the prejudice to answer
ing the question, and assist IN securing
complete returns. The letter follows:
"After mature consideration of the i'm
pOrtance of securing a complete and cor
rect census return for the city OF Salt
Lake and the state OF L tan, your COM
mittee on statistics has decided TO make
direct appeal to all members of the
Commercial club with view to securing
their cooperation in this important work
The committee believes that the people
generally should be impressed with the
benefit to be derived from making the
best possible showing, and each member
of this club can lend material assistance
by explaining the matter to his employees
and to all others with whom he may come
IN contact.
'If we can impr IS upon the people the
fact that the information obtained by the
census enumerators is kept secret by the
government employees and is not used as
a basis for taxation or for any purpose
other than obtaining statistics, the work
will be very much simplified.
ut is tho intention of the committee
to endeavOr to reach all the people Of
this state through the press, the schools,
the churches and societies in the hope
that no person will be overlooked or be
found guilty of lodging the enumeratOrs.
Steps will be taken to check the work
of the enumerators, and any neglect or
oversight upon the part of any employee
of the census bureau should be reported
promptly by telephone to the o---ce Of the

Prompt Settlement.

There is probably no time in life
when the prompt payment of a debt,
or the settlement of a claim, is appre-
ciated more fully than when misfortune
or death overtakes a family. At such
times extraordinary bills are contract
ed, which require prompt payment, and
to receive the means for making such
payments without any great effort is
doubly welcome.
The CONTINENTAL LIFE INSUR-
ANCE e INVESTMENT COMPANY
has a record in the payment of claims
presented of which it is justly proud.
