THE CEMENT DEAL

The cement deal recently entered into be
tween the State Road Commission and
the cement manufacturers and which was
vigorously opposed to the last ditch by
Member Geo. d. Casio, according to re-
ports was considered carefully and the
contract drawn by the state department
of finance before it came to the Road
Commission for approval. 1t appears as
though the department after investiga-
ton thought the cement people were en-
titled to the price agreed upon after
checking up the details, and taking last
years business into consideration
For some time it has been stated that it
was the policy of the former administra-
ton to let current contracts on such a
basis that former losses might be recov-
cred, something that in private life would
be out of the question but apparently
worth considering when the peoples
money pay the bills, and the question is
now being asked rs such the policy of
the present department of finance?" At
any rate it would be illuminating to know
whether or not the cement manufacture
ers played losing game last year in ia
vor of the state, and if they did is the con-
tract this year based on consideration
for recovery of past losses?

THE WHITE MANS BURDEN

Practically every western state is fac
ing for this year the greatest tax bill on
record. In many instances, the tax has
been doubled and trebled in the past six
years.
Industry will be called upon to pay this
burden and there is no way to get out of
it, for the bill has been contracted
The people are largely to blame for the
present state of affairs and they will get
no relief until by their voice expressed at
Clons they have the courage to demand
tax reductions and to hold public officials
to campaign pledges for economy.
Further, the citizen must get out and
vote for men and measures which guar
antee economy. If this is not done our
tax burdens viii grow until it will take
special deputies to hunt down individuals
and confiscate their property, if they
have any, to meet the tax bills. This is
not an exaggerated picture.
That the power to tax is the power to
destroy has been already well illustrated
and taxation tody is the greatest single
item which prevents and will prevent a
return to pre-war conditions nasmuch
as we have an enormous war tax bill to
pay in addition to our other taxes, it is
all the more necessary that reduction
in local taxrolls be demanded and Sc
cured

THE SECURITIES COMMISSION

The securities commission appears to
have run up against a real buccaneer and
in its official capacity it appears to have
given a corporation that has associated
with it the notorious George Graham
Rice, alias Jacob S. Herzig, alias Judge
Dodge, clean bill of health
Rice is reported to have served
in the New York state penitentiaIy, in
Sing Sing and in BlackwelPs Island peni-
tertiary. He is real crook, and from
latest reports will be asked by the Cali
fOInia authorities to be extradited.
Just how much the commission is at
fault in its action or whether it is at fault
at all is so far a matter of opinion
judging from the statements of the inter
ested parties, but what this paper wants
to say is this. We stated when this blue
sky legislation was passed that it did not
mean anything for the good of the people
That it was one phase of the then prevail
ing disease of "Commissionitis" that was
injecting the state. We said that no Sec
rotary of State, no Attorney General and
no Bank Examiner would be endowed
with sufficient practical knowledge of
the phases of all corporations and would
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1921-07-12

possess sufficient wisdom to safeguard
the rights of the people in the matters
covered by the legislation. We said it
was farce to make the people of the
state race of dependents on the wisdom
of any commission. To date the COM
mission we dare say has done many good
things, but it is also safe to say that the
easiest Ruben in the state could not fall
for a cleverer crook than this man Rice
appears to be. We are still of the opinion
that this commission is living by virtue
of piece of legislatin, that should be re-
pealed.

RAILROAD LABOR COST

In 1916 under private management rail
road labor cost was 81 ,468, SIC, 1874 and i'll
1919 under government management! 1t
was $2,643, 128,432 or an increase of about
"a per cent.
Due to the 8-hour Adamson law and
pyramiding wage increases made by the
government the labor bill of the railroads
in 1920 increased to the startling sum of
$3,698, 216,351, compared with 81 ,46S,-
576,394 in 1916, an INCREASE of nearly 1852
per cent.
and other salient facts were re-
entity presented to the senate committee
on interstate commerce by Chairman
Kruttschnitt of the Southern Pacific.
Manifestly one cannot review these
facts and figures without distrust of poll
teal management, nor without the con-
viction that government ownership of
the railroads is fraught with economic
disaster.
1t is very evident, if our transportation
system is to grow and function in proper
ton to the progressive requirements of
industry and commerce, that economies
must be effected in the cost of operation
and transportation. AS wages constitute
the principal item of expense and con-
sumo GA per cent of the gross revenue as
shown by Mr.. Kruttschnitt, and as this
is primarily due to wage increases Undue
ed by war conditions, since the cost of
living has fallen, at least relative reduc
ton in wages should be effected.
In considering the cost of living con-
sideration should be confined to changes
in the cost of the necessities of life ANY
increase in the cost of living because of
higher standards of living is liability
to be assumed by the individual concern
ed, as it is not factor of economic or
determining value in the equation and
imposition of wage burdens on the public.
The public is willing to pay reasonable
wages and rates but it is not willing to
pay for JOY rides.
More than ever the public realizes that
it is paying the bill Never before has
public interest in wage controversy been
so aroused as at present. Never before
has there been such concerted demand
for wage reductions. In their bid for the
railroad vote the politicians seem to have
lost all thought of the public.
The wage question is now before the
United States Labor board and if the
board makes proper annrisal of economies
effected in the cost of living as a result
of reduced prices. a substantial wage re-
duction is inevitable, with resulting ben
efits to the public.

CHAOS WOULD RESULT

The public schools take a vacation of
three months every year and nothing
happens.
The police force and fire department
go on their annual picnics and balls and
things run long as usual
The city paving isn't improved over
long periods, or the public library may
close or the public parks allowed to go to
ruin and the pubic isn't injured.
But let the electric lights go out for
few hours and there is actual suffering
and much crime. Let the water works
stop and soon there are parched tongues
and disease. Let the telephone suspend
and there is chaos and loss of business.
Let transportation in city stop and thou
sands are thrown out of work and the
hardship is intense. Turn out the gas and
we go back fifty years in our civilization.
Well sustained public utilities mean a
happy and prosperous community. They
pay taxes while politicians increase tax
burdens.
Chairman Good of the house apropria-
ton committee finds that the average
cost of government to every person in
the United States last year was $61.88
This is about $500 per family.

COMBINE TO DROP

Leaders in Preparing County
Slate Say They Will Not
Hurt" Mayor
HAVE OWN LOVE FEAST
BD q Std6 Correspondent

Harrisburg, March 1.-Representa- :
tives of the Philadelphia combine are
here in stronger force today than at
any time since the beginning of the
session. In their wake are many rip
pies of political gossip.
Members Of the Legislature saw the
three big leaders Of the combine break
ing bread together. At one table sat
Judge Brown, Thomas w. Cunningham,
Senator Ware and Oscar E. Noll. AT a
nearby table sat Richard Weglein,
president of City Council. and Council
man Cox, one of the South Philadelphia
members.
Senator Ware and Judge Brown both
said il was entirely too early to discuss
the make up of the county ticket. Judge
Brown said mo one was giving the
matter any thought at all at this time, ="
The judge was asked If the leaders in
the city organization would consider
Mayor Moore in the writing of the
ticket, to the end that the slate would
not be the special target of the city
administration forces.
There is not" replied Judge Brown,
'and has not been any desire TO hurt
the Mayor"
The judge was reminded that the
Mayor had served notice in a speech
last Saturday night that he would not
indorse any ticket which stood in op-
position to the principles and aims OF
the Moore administration.
Several of those with Judge Brown
replied at once and almost in the same
breath that Mayor Moore is the only
one doing any fighting"
Despite the statement that no con-
sideration was being accorded framing
of the county ticket, it was learned
city organization leaders have decided
definitely new deal will be ordered al
around in the stating of candidates fol
the fifteen places on the magisteria
ticket. Scarcely any magistrate whose
term is about to expire will be slated
for re election by the combine. it was
stated on high authority.
