STATEWIDE
WoMAN'S MOVEMENT
Home Economics Association To
Greatly Extend Work

Mrs. Leon d. Bachelor, head of
the Home Economics Department Of
the Agricultural College, and Miss
Gertrude McCheyne, in charge Of the
same work in the Extension Divi-
sion, have both Just returned from
Salt Lake where they went to at
tend the meeting of the State Home
Economics Association. At the meet
ing just held great plans for the fu-
ture were inaugurated. Under the
arrangements now made the scope
of the work will be extended so that
it will embrace not only the teach
ers of the state but it will extend to
every woman who may desire to af-
filiate with the organization. 1t is
thought by this means that the move
ment will be greatly popularized and
will thereby more completely fulfill
the purpose of its organization.
officers were also elected for the
coming year. They are: Miss Mar
garet Hull, president; Mrs. Lean d.
Bachelor, vice president; Miss Lulu
Corbett, secretary and treasurer;
Miss Gertrude McCheyne, chairman
of the executive committee. Miss
McCheyne was also selected to be
chairman of the membership commit
tee. This latter because of the ma
ture Of her work throughout the state
whereby she is brought into imme-
date contact with the women who
will be most interested in the work.
A lively interest was manifested
by all the members and great hopes
are held out for its further advance
ment.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
CHEATING IN PUBLIC AND
CHEATING IN PRIVATE

+. p Dunno, writing the Inter
prefers House" in the December
American Magazine, says in part:
"hWat we have to do is to make
people feel that political dishonesty
is as disgraceful as private dishon-
esty; to force upon men who regard
themselves as leaders of human pro-
gress the conviction that they must
play the game fairly, and that bride
giving and bride taking are as
shameful as forging notes, or cheat.
ing at cards, or pulling a horse in
a race. OF course, there is no com.
parison between the crimes. A man
who would slip an ace up his sleeve
or bride a jockey to put. horse in
n pocket Is a gentlemanly sportsman
compared with the man who will SOW
corruption through the whole body
of a community in order to gain an
unfair advantage in the game of pol
tiles. Yet decent people who will
shun a blackleg OF the race course
or the card table will not hesitate
to take their dinner publicly in the
company of man who is avowedly
corrupt in his relations with the gov
eminent.
"a card sharp Is kicked out of
the game. One lapse condemns him
forever. We have known of brave
and, we think, honest man who was
pursued to his grave by the mere
rumor that he cheated at cards. Yet
a man may cheat at the far greater
game of politics, he may sell his
hand to an opponent, or throw away
the stronger hand for a bride, and
be none the worse off in the opinion
Of the public. He can't live down a
peck at his neighbours hand, but he
can not only live down but he can
thrive on bribing a judge"

AFRAID THE WOMAN WOULD
LITERALLY DRIVE HIM
TO DRINK

+. p. Dunno, who writes the In
terpretcrs House" in the December
American Magazine relates the fol.
lowing story:
"A story has been often told of
great lady in England who was
celebrated on all questions. Strange
to say, her opinions were exactly OPP
posite to those usually maintained by
her caste. She shared one of the old.
est titles in the kingdom, and was
related ~ birth or marriage to the
proudest members of the aristocracy
but she was a teetotaler. an atheist,

Recommendations Of state Board OF
Equalization

The state board Of equalization in
its biennial report to the governor
submitted yesterday urges that all
property in the state be assessed at
it's actual cash value. he board re-
commends that all tax levies be cor
respondingly reduced. This recon-
mendation is new in Utah though in
some other states the plan Is being
adopted.
The assessed valuation of Utah
this year passes the two hundred mil
lion mark. The assessed valuation
Of all the property assessed in Utah
is 5000, 262,S73. OF this amount, more
than one-third is in Salt Lake coun-
ty. This county's assessed valuation
is four times as great as that of any
other county in the state. The total
assessed valuation of this county is
$S4,052, 144. 16 of which $29,627 ,252 is
in real estate, $23,375,347 in improve
ments, $17,627,32S in personal prop
erty, and $13,422,217 .16 in mines and
public utilities. Weber county ranks
second with a total assessed valua-
ton of $20,2SS,561.
Would Cut Levy
or particular interest are several
important recommendations by the
state board of equalization for chan
ges in the revenue laws. With con-
siderable emphasis the state board
recommends that all property be as
sessed at it's actual cash value and
that all tax leyies be reduced to the
lowest possible point.
The state board of equalization
again urges a radical change In the
distribution of the proceeds derived
from the tax on public utilities. At
present the proceeds are distributed
among the counties in which the pub
lie utilities operate. This distribution
in the case of railroads Is based on
the mileage of the railroad in each
county. This method Of distribution
the state board denounces as abso-
lutely wrong declaring that its con
tinued in force solely on the theory
that might makes right
Problem Not Easy
The board admits that the problem
of the distribution of the proceeds
of the utility tax is perpleXing, but
declares that it is one the solution
of which must not be postponed .
The board suggests as a possible
method Of solution much more equit
able than the present one, the dis
tribution among all counties of the
state in the ratio of the assessed
valuation of the counties less the
yalue of public utilities. The plan is
first to ascertain the total assessed
valuation of public utilities in each
county of the state; then to sub
tract from the total valuation of each
county the valuation OF the public
utilities in each county; then to ap'
norton the proceeds of the tax OF
the public utilities secured through
out the state to each county in the
ratio of the assessed valuation OF
each county to the total valuation
OF the state, less the valuation OF
public utilities.
More uniformity of valuation is
urged by the board. The report
points out that the judgment of dep
uty county assessors as to the value
of property values, In one Instance
