HOME BUILDING SOCIETY

Last week the Record published
the financial statement of the Cedar
City Home Building Society. The
name tells what it is and what it
does for Cedar citizens who want
homes. 1t has done a great work
already in making homes grow
where vacant lots once lay. The
community has no better aid to
growth. Young men who marry
and want to settle down are es-
pecially blessed in the chance to
join the society, 1t makes citizens
out of men who might become
wanderers. 1t replaces unrest, un-
certainty and agitation with civic
pride, love of home and solid citi-
zenship. 1t is also a safe and sound
place to invest money. May its
tribe of stockholders increase.

The subject of County Attorney
E. H. Ryap's illness has been the
great N bic of conversation this
week. If universal appreciation
and good will, and genuine con-
Germ has any healing value, our
patient ought to hear what is be-
ing said of him everywhere in the
community every day. An espec-
tally provoking feature of his i'll
ness is its coming at the time when
he was due to take up legal battle
with the state of Arizona on behalf
of the sheepmen of Southern Uta,'
over the attempt of Arizona
charge Utah sheep 25 cents head
admission.

VETERANS BUREAU
WILL PROVE OF REAL
BENEFIT TO SOLDIERS

Washington. Aug. 23.-Neterans' diff
ficulties in obtaining government aid
are expected to be greatly minimiZed
by the consolidation of all government
agencies administering soldier relief
under one head-the Veterans Bureau.
That is what Col Charles K. Forbes,
of Seattle, director Of the bureau,
promises. The day of dual responsible
ity Of divided authority in the gov
ernment's dealings with former service
men is ended. he says, and troubles Of
long standing among the veterans
will rapidly disappear.
Responsibility for adjusting claims,
attending 10 medical needs and OF
educating disabled veterans. is def
nitely fixed under the law creating
the veterans bureau. II rests squarely
upon the director rather than between
the war risk insurance bureau, the
federal board for vocational training
and the public health service. the three
AGENCIES that formerly administered
aid independently.
The problem of providing medical ia
cilities, including hospitals, is regarded
as he most difficult of all those com.
ing within the jurisdiction Of the
bureaur Plans already are underway
for its solution. The bureau announces
That the $4,000 900 appropriation for
hospital construction will be supple.

director to enter into contracts with
state, municipal and private hospitals
for the immediate accommodation of
veterans in need Of hospital care. The
/ announcement says that $500 new
beds will be placed in use for soldier
/ patients by January next year
Other duties Of the director include
inspection Of all hospitals having sol.

PAYING ONES DEBTS

Is there a good way to pay a debt?
Can the paying Of "a debt be made
interesting?
Listen to what an Ardmore mer-
chant who does some credit business
says
This merchant says the way to pay
. debt is to begin making small pay
ments and to gradually whttle il
down. He says that there is this
difference between the manner in
which u man pays debt and the
manner in which woman pays il
The man wants to wait until he has
all the money 80 he can step in tho
store and pay up in fun. The woman
win begin paying $40 at a time and
every time she saves as much as $40
in she comes TO the store to make
& payment
The result is that the woman is
the better pay. because the plan
she adopts is the better man does
not like to pay out his last penny, NO
likes TO save something back for
scme emergency. while the woman
will part with her last penny on .
debt and trust that she will have
whatever she needs to meet any emer
sency that might arise.
This merchant reasons it out this
way. that IL he has 100 customers
on his books and each one pays SIC
a week he can use the money to tide
him over in good shape and keep hi
business going and his customers
within u few weeks will have their
Indebtedness discharged
The longer man owes a debt thc
more ne feels that he does not owe
H. the sense of responsibility begins
To fade and TO grow dim and ne b.

an exaggerated way and finally be

which he car cvade II altogether on
the other hand u he begins 10 make
small payments he gets interested In
seeing il grow less. he begins to look
forward with more or less plcasur,
tc the time when he is to make 90,
next regular payment he gets inter

BRITISH Ambassador Receives Instructions From Lon.
don to Attempt Settlement Regarding Pa
cific Cable Communications

WASHINGTON, Feb, 25.--Instruc-
tons are understood to have been re-
celved by Sir Auckland Geddcs, British
Ambassador. to attempt the role of
mediator in the controversy between
the United States and Japan regarding
Pacific cable communications.
This became known to- day coinci-
dent with resumption of sessions Of
the conference which has for its OBJ
jective the disposition of the former
German cables. The controversy be-
tween the United States and Japan
centers around the future status of the
Pacific island of zap, the United States
holding that zap, as an important CEN
ter of communications, should be in
ternationalzed and Japan contcnding
that the island was included in the
mandate granting her all former Ger
man possessions in the Pacific north
of the equator.
Although American commissioners to
the conference have said that the vari-
Gus questions arising from the contro-
versy between Japan and the United
States over the island have not vet
been divorced from the cable settle
ment, it is understood that this problem
