the equalization os salaries among
higher officials of the Government
departments.
There are many positions in the
Government service now where an
assistant" is paid more than his
superior.
4 GLAZING EXAMPLE.
Most OF these jobs are I'm Washing
ton. although f.w OF them are scat
tered around the country.
4 glaring example r. found in the
Treasury Department. the parent OF
many wartime bodies. The Assistant
Secretaries receive a salary Of $1,000
year. while many subordinate pos
tions pay much more.
In the Internal Revenue Bureau III"
Commissioper gets si0,oOO--twice tn"
salary OF the Assistant Secretary to
whom he is responsible. Under III"
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue are
many minor officials who receive
more than the Assistant Secretary
Some Treasury Department ofhcisls.
under the law, hold two positions,
one under the direct supervision OF
the Treasury Department and another
in some commission or committee al
filiated with the department. These
officials are paid almost as much a
the Secretary of the Treasury anu
more than twice the salary of an As
sstant secretary
Government officials do not cor
tend the men who are receiving big
money are not entitled to 1t, but that
the Assistant Secretaries, whose posi-
tions have grown in Importance, have
been neglected.
A minor official who recently re-
signed to accept a position outside OF
the Government now receives ten
times what he was getting in the
Government service.
1t was said that many Of the
designations recently from the income
tax division of the Treasury Depart
ment were not SO much a drain on
the resources OF that division as il
would seem. While it is true. il was
admitted, that many of the men who
left the service for private firms had
worked up in the service and were
greatly missed. there were others who
had merely gone into the service for
training in tax matters.
These men. it. was pointed out, had
left positions in the commercial world
paying from $1,000 to $4,000 a year
to accept places in the income tan
unit at salaries of from $1,000 to
SO, 500 a year. After working for the

cial world again and command SAL

The Highways

the entire 1S0 miles from Ogden to
Montpelier the only bad stretch OF
road encountered was between Echo
and a point near Evanston. Motor
lists can well afford TO eliminate this
stretch OF 35 miles. because the road
is OF the worst type, although on the
Wyoming end construction gangs are
building q fine graded highway.
During the week number OF cars
have made 1t through Logan canyon
to Garden City and reports are to
the effect that the road is now passi-
BILE and quite free from danger. A
number of roadbuilding outfits have
been at work on this road for many
days with the result that the road
will soon be in first class shape.
From Laketown to Montpelier the
highway for the greater part of the
distance is like hard surfaced road.
With the exception of a few places
this side OF Fish Haven the road is
excellent.

The writer made an auto trip to
Ogden leaving last Friday morning.
The trip going was made by way OF
Soda Springs and Alexander. thence
down through GENTLE Valley. The
Bear River narrows were eliminated
by detouring by way of Treasureton
to Preston. From Preston the trip
to Brigham was made by way of Lo-
gan and Hyrum and through Wells

ways were in excellent condition, the
only real bad piece of road encount-
cred being between Georgetown and
"a point about two miles this side of
Soda Springs.

of Ogden and Weber canyon to
