inve,sisat;on To Be Made

AS the result of the case an inveSti- gation is to be made and 8 resolution to that effect was introduced a. Fri. days session of the general assembly.
 Under the resolution offered hy Representative Rogers of Litehfeli. adopted Friday by the House. the pro posed committee would have the rixht to subpoena witnesses and require the production of all necessary books and reeoras, in its investigation of the conduct and management ef the farm. including the care and treatment of inmates, the expenditure of appropri- ations made for the purchase, devel- opment, support and maintenance and the aavisahility of continuing the state farm. The resolution authorized the comptroller to pay the necessary ex- penses of the committee. members of which would serve without eompensa- ton. and the Senate declined to acs on the matter because of the element of expense attached to the plan. For shat reason. is Is likely that some ef- Tort will be made to facilitate the in- lniry without expense te the state.

 he would not be 8 candidate for the office al the next city election, saying For the fourth and last time, gentle men, l ask your indulgence while I read ny annual message"
 Gentlemen of the Common Council:
 In reviewing the work of the past year Ve naturally consider first the effect of our efforts upon the debt of the city, whether increased or deereas- ed, and the reasons therefor. Your treasurer's report, exclusive of the water department. shows an increase Tn tae elty's debt of approximately S5saeo. An analysis of oar expenses shows permanent investments cover ing sewer extensions on Woodstock venue and street improvements in the 'lanhasset section approximatiag SI2- 9oo authorized by special appropria- tons. the funds for which are Dor. rowed and added to the grand total of indebtedness. This, therefore, shows that exclusive of thls amount for per
 aanent investment the operating ex- pense of the city. notwithstanding the sxtrer1e high cost of labor and mater ais. has been upon most favorable ,asss. Our total bonded indebtedness aas been reduced $i5,ooo during the ear; ss,ooo of the sewer bonds and 'iosoeo of the water department

CACHE COUNTY FARM
BUREAU GETS OFF
ON RIGHT FOOT

The Cache County Farm Bureau
had a real meeting at the High
School last Saturday, and from now
on 1t will be well for the people of
the county to keep their eye on the
Farm Bureau. The meeting was
well attended. President Ephraim
Bergesop presided and from the time
the President raped for order, all
during the time he was making his
opening address and until he declar-
ed the meeting adjourned the fire in
his eye indicated that he was out for
results. The way he was backed up by
everybody present indicated that he
had an army of determined tax pay
ers behind him who would not lay
down their burden until something
substantial had been accomplished.
Taxes was the subject of discus
sion, The President declared in ad-
vance that there was nothing person
al in the meeting, that II was not a
time to be placing blame. that any
reference to personality or politics
would not be tolerated, but that the
object was to discuss freely the con-
dition confronting the community
and take steps to find a remedy.
Former Assessor Parsons of Salt
Lake City was present and made an
interesting address on the tax matter
as 1t was administered under the pre-
sent laws, and indicated how some
reforms could be brought about.
Hon. Mark Austin of Rexburg
made an interesting address showing
how the school children had been put
to useful occupation after school
hours in southern Idaho, resulting In
the making of sufficient funds to en-
able great many people to pay their
taxes without drawing the money
from other sources.
The discussion then went to the
body of the house and number OF
The Logan Republican. [volume] (Logan, Utah) 1902-1924, 1921-12-20

local taxpayers threw the search
light on present laws, declared them
obsolete and out of date, and advanc-
ed some ideas that they though the
Farm Bureau could work out to ad-
vantage. 1t was declared on the
floor that the people who we're draw
ing the mammoth stipends for SER
vices rendered throughout the state
were paying the least taxes, while
the land owners and business men
were paying for the education OF the
children OF this favored class.
The spirit of fairness prevailed
throughout but there wac a determine
ed look on the face of the vast throng
that spoke in terms louder than
words that the Ratchet would not be
buried until some substantial results
were achieved to the end that there
would be no favored class in Utah,
and all ould bear just righteous
proportion of taxes. This idea was
so manifest that II was declared It
would be accomplished II It became
necessary to wipe out every political
path that had been trodden in the
past.
A motion then prevailed unanim-
ously empowering the President to
iappoint n committee of ten members
of the Bureau, the President to be
one of the members, to study the tax
question, hold hearings throughout
'he county, and do any and all things
necessary to bring about the needed
tax reform, and report to the bureau.
The president will appoint the COM
mittee after taking time to study the
matter.
The latch string was then placed
on the door of the bureau and any
and all who could subscribe to the
aims and desires of the bureau were
asked to become members.
The meeting then adjurned with
fine taste in its mouth.

The Cache Stake Conference was

mites as to recOup herself for the
outlay Of 40 years preparation. The
splendid resistance of the Belgians and
the French and Of the little British
eXpedltlOnary force made the short
war futile dream. The unframed
manhood and unmOrtgaged resources
Of the Western World, of the British
empire overseas and finally of Amer
lea. determined the issue. Germany
suffered economic collapse, though her
armies beaten but not routed, were
still on enemy soil. So Germany's
military preparedness was her cause
for making war and was the cause OF
her defeat In the issue, It was ecv-
nomIc preparedness that mattered
most.
To-day, men, women and little chill
dren are starving to death In Europe be-
cause Of the wars horrible waste and
because of the still more horrible waste
Of after the war. Two years and n
half after aImistiCe, nearly two years
after peace was concluded between
Germany and the allies, millions Of
men are under arms, eating and wear
ing the produce of the fields and OF
the labor of civilian population
which must bear the load of taxes and
initiation necessary to maintain those
armies In economic idleness. The peO-
pies Of continental Europe are stag
gerlng under the load of ornaments,
far too great before the war and in
tOlerable now. Their rulers hold them
selves In power by subsidies and dolesr
by playing, now on their fears, and
again on their avarlce, still again on
natIonalistIc ambitions or ancient ra-
cial hatreds. The allies have under
taken to insure Germany's economic
recovery by insisting upon her disarm-
ament and the payment of reparations
which means the development Of a
huge export balance; but for them
selves they reserve the doubtful priyi-
lege Of remaining armed to the teeth. >.
