Latterday Saints to
 Dedicate New Temple

Phoenix, Ariz., Dec. IS H9 - The small town of Mesa, Arizona. will be the gathering place next year for thousands of worshippers who will dedicate the new temple Of the Latter Day Saints.
 Church authorities believe that fully 25,000 adherents of the Nor mon faith will take part in the ceremonies, The structure, to cost more than s6o0.oOO. will be, com pleted about January l.
 For some time the outer temple will be kept open for public in- spectpn, but after dedication 1t will be closed to all but Mormons and even they must come recommended by officers of the church before be- ing permitted to enter.
 The inner temple will be a shrine never revealed to the public. IL is known, however, that some of the best artists in the country have helped in the decoration. Large paintings will depict Joseph Smith preaching to the Indians and the scene at S.. George, Utah, when the entire Shivwit tribe was baptized.

WASHINGTON LETTER

Washington, Dc. 16-Already the
voiceless orators Of Washington are
peddling their wares to the unsu-
speeding public. The early editions
of the Congressional Record for the
69th Congress contain a collection of
speeches made usually to the exclusive
audience of one stenographer, or
written by capable secretary or
legislator.
The 'leave to print" is a privilege
which has been very greatly abused
in recent years, and Senator Smoot,
one of the watch dogs of the Treas
ury, is making every effort to curtail

The first issue of the Minnesota
Republican" has reached the Herald
desk. 1t is edited by one A. N.
Jacobs of "Harpoon" notoriety and
who was given a Jail sentence a few
months ago for libeling Magnus
johnson. In the first number Jacobs
makes a malicious attack on Rudolph
Lee, editor of the Long Prairie
Leader. The Herald holds no brief
for Mr.. Lee, but when manhood is
taken into consideration there is no
comparison between "Rudy" Lee and
Jacobs. In his article Jacobs makes
grave charges against the Long
Prairie gentleman which the latter
denies. Minnesota publishers without
question will accept Mr.. Les YER
sion. Jacobs purports to be the
mouthpiece of U. S. Senator Tom
Schall. If Tom must rely on the

sonal organ he is in a bad way.

this policy.

this policy.
One of the great surprises of the
current season in Washington is the
attention given the tax bill. Every
effort is being made to make it non
partisan so that it will pass the House
before the Christmas recess and
emerge from the Senate before March
Is. It is proposd to make the new
rates applicable on that date so that
the taxpayers may receive immediate
benefit. This will make good talk
ing point for members of the House
and Senate seeking reelection in No
vember. The membership of the
entire House will be subjected to
change at the next elections and the
terms of thirty4two members of the
Senate will also expire next year.
The tax measure is one of the few
things that will appeal directly to
the home folks and make good cam
paign material, especially for the in
cumbent.
By the way, what has become of
the Mellon tax plan? Nobody hears
anything about this proposition any
more. 1t seems that in an effort to
obtain lower taxes, it is necessary
for the administration to withdraw
it's Identification marks and pass the
internal revenue measure which
would meet the demands of the ma
jor parties. Caution is now being eX-
ercised to prevent excessive reduc-
ton of taxes. The trainers of our tax
bill allow a sufficient margin to
take care of the emergency appro-
priations, so that there will be no
actual deficit which would require
borrowing.
The Treasury Department has call
ed the attention of Congress to the
fact that taxable incomes do not
maintain constant upward march
year after year. In other words, they
want Congress to realize that in
comes of private individuals, as well
as business firms, f1uctuate from time
to time and consideration must be
given to The lean years as we'll as to
the prosperous ones.
1t is reasonable to believe that the
size of the enc dollar bills will be re-
dnced within few months. This will
und, lotedly give the jokesters plenty
of material concerning the purchas-
ing value Of the dollar. The Treas
ury Department believes that reduc-
ed size for dollar bills would effect
i'm oortant economies. With this end
in view, our money makers have un-
dertaken study of paper currency
designs.
While on the subject of money, ii
isinterestting to- note that he report
of the Secretary sent to Congress his
week shows that gold stock in this
country continues to equal almost
one-half of the visible stock of gold
in the whole world, meaning that
Uncle Sam is still holding the money
bags. The Government has been in
creasing the circulation of gold GER
tificates so that it has been necessary
to continue the coinage of gold in or
der to be in position to meet the
legal requirements, that at least one
third of the gold held shall be in the
form of gold coin.
