Rock Creek Region

~
During the coming season. begin
ming about May Is, the Forest Ser
vice will begin a cruise of the large
body Of timber tributary to Rock
Creek. This area has been roughly
estimated as supporting a stand of
approximately 200 200 900 board
feet. An application has been re-
ceived for the purchase of a part
Of this timber but before 1t will be
sold, an accurate estimate and log
ging map is needed. The area Is to
be sub-divided into logging units, to
permit OF a unit at the h~eadwaters
OF the stream being logged at the
same time as a lower unit, that all
logging operations are not punched in
n place on account of the heavy
snowfall on the upper drainage.
A Of six men will be engaged
in this work in charge of Junior
Forester Don Clark of the Medicine
Bow forest. Four experienced cruis-
ers are to be assigned him aud the
sixth man will be the cook and pack
err, a local man to be employed for
the work.
The general scheme in making the
cruise will be to establish camps at

In another part of his address, the
President spoke of the great desir-
ability of the thorough assimilation
of those who have come to this coun-
try from alien shores. While he did
not voice in as many words the claim
that the United States today is the
greatest land of opportunity in he
universe, yet one reading between
the lines could gather that that was
that every alien admitted to our
shores receive just and fair treat
ment, and that the thought may be
the United States is the land OF OPP
for his children.
The President made 1t clear that
he is opposed to anyone using a
party label for the purpose of being
elected to any office and wnen having
achieved that end to forsake the plat
form on (which he was elected.
There is no doubt but that the
President considers such an action
as a betrayal of the individuals cor
%stitutents. The President finds no
fault with men or women who change
party labels because of sincere con-
victions, theirs is that right, but
candidates who preach one thing on
the stump and practice another after
election do not meet with his ap-
prevail.
In the matter OF the tariff, the
President made 1t known that he
stands as firmly today as he ever has
in favor Of a tariff that would pro-
tect the citizens of the country, no
matter what section is involved. He
desires hat the farmer be given
benefit of adequate protection. He
desires that the workman shall be
given such protection as will enable
him to receive wages that will pro-
vide ample comforts for him and his
family. He is for the protection Of
the American wage scale and the
American standard of living. which
Is the highest in the world. The in
augural address of President Cool
idge was delivered with character
istic simplicity and earnestness. 1t
was the kind of message that the
people Of the United States expected
him to deliver. 1t was q reaffirma-
ton of their confidence in him. as
expressed by the millions of people
who voted for him In November
1924.

f1lD speech was from his heart. 1t
contained. the utterances Of a man
who genuinely loves his country. The
President voiced his desire that labor
In all its branches should receive full
and adequate return for its efforts.
He does not believe that any line
of human activities should receive
something for nothing, but he is en-
phatic in his belief that labor should
be paid a just wage. He believes
that the working woman, as well as
the working man, should have at all
time equitable treatment, contending
that prosperity, good wages, amply
supplied households, make for a con-
tented citizenry.
President Coolidge reiterated his
emphatic opposition to the cancel
lation Of any Of the foreign debts.
Europe after reading his message
can make no mistake on that score.
In this he maintains the same at
titude that he did in his first mes
sage to Congress.
In discussing the World Court, the
President expressed the hope that
the nations of. the world might ar
rive at a conclusion which would
make for a universal and a lasting
peace.
World Peace, he says, must come
from the heart and while world
courts, %parleys, and other gatherings
may be Of advantage in securing the
desired result the prime factor is
the attitude OF the people of the
world themselves. President Cool
idge is not in favor of any entang-
ling alliances nor OF u surrending,
in the slightest manner, the rights
that we have enjoyed for years.
Touching upon the matter of for
eign relations, the President express
ed the desirability of the United
States, not only maintaining but ex-
tending relations with the peoples
of the world. There is no doubt that
he believes that amicable commercial
relations will do much to bring
about better political feelings be-
tween the countries OF the world.

the part OF the President to prevent

nation. The program for the cur

AUTO TAXES PUT UNDUE
BURDEN ON ARIZONAFS

Automobile owners paid the state OF
Arizona more than a million dollars
in special auto taxes last year, in adj
dition to the property tax of 56 cents
on each $100 Of assessed valuation Of
the car. The only tangible evidence
OF a return for these taxes was a pair
of metal license plates.
A total of s339,038.50 was collected
by the state from autoists for license
plates, and an additional $730,846 in
gasoline taxes, at the rate of three
cents per gallon. These special taxes
were borne by 57,828 auto owners, an
average OF $500 for each auto.
James Brown, owner of a decrepit
auto assessed at $500, paid total taxes
orr it last year as follows:
License plates So; personal property
tax to the state at 36 cents per 500,
SLIP; county tax at $1.75 per hun
dred, $3.46; city tax at S1.42 per hun
dred, 1884; 3-cent gasoline tax ON a
basis OF two gallons per day for the
year, $3.50, a total of $34.32, or 16
2-3 per cent of the total value Of the
machine.
Auto Owner Brown complains that
no other class of property in the state
is taxed 16 2-3 per cent of it's total
value, and it is reported that he, with
