LOCAL ORGANIZATION
SHOWS FINE EARNING
Cseck With Other State Association
Shows Cody Building q Loan
Better Investment

Ln comparison with the building
and loan organizations of Wyoming,
the Cody Building & Loan associa-
ton stands out well to the fore
front both as an investment and
as a borrowing institution, accord
ing to its secretary, Ernest j.
Goppert who but recently receiving
the annual statement of other build
ing and loan associations, has
made a study and a comparison of
the reports received. Taking six
of the leading associations for
comparison, the local association
shows book values which far ex-
coed those of all of the other COM
pnnies.
The Cody Building G. Loan as
ISOLATION having finished its seventh
year, he takes the book value of
stock at this time Is a basis for
the figures used, although some
of the other companies have been
in operation for many years. Fig
uring the stock of a par value of
5000 at maturity, the stock Of the
local organization Shows a book
value of $149.43 at the close of
the seventh year. Its closest rival
to these figures are shown by the
annual statement of the Casper
Mutual Building & Loan, whose
statement showed a value of $780,
65 at the close Of its seventh year.
The Glenrock Building and Loan,
which is a small organization SINH
lar to the Cody association, gave
its stock value al S12S.67 at the
end of the seventh year and Albany
Mutual Building & Loans stock
had a book value of $115.09 for
the same period. The Railway
Employers Building & Loan of
Cheyenne showed a book value of
~$114.55, al the close of its seventh
year. and the Sheridan association
as $111.54, making up the annual
report at midyear, to which the
be added 10 place this report on a
par with the other associations.
The above figures are printed
by the Enterprise In order to show
prospective investors hal perhaps
the best medium for investment is
right at their own doors in a local
organization. At the annual meet
ing in October the association
authorized the sale of $4,000
worth of stock in the eighth series
which opened at that time Without
the use OF n statesmen whatever.
the local association not paying any
commissions for stock sales, 100000
of this amount has already been
sold, and the balance will easily
go to those desiring same; or max
ing loans.

THE STATUE

During the past ten months. the
State Board of equalization has been
called upon more often than in
several years past, to construe AR
ious sections of there venue laws
Equalization has been called up
on more often than in several years
past, to 'construe various sections
of there venue laws and direct the
administration thereof. some of
which had never heretofore been
seriously considered. In making
a thorough examination Of all the
statutes, it becomes quite apparent
that there are some Of the statutes
which are in direct conflict with
others; that there are any inequalf-
ties. negotiable and, from a sound
business viewpoint, injudicious pro-
visions.
1t is. therefore. the purpose of
the Board to draft a number of
bills to be submitted to the next
legislature Session for the purpose
OF rectifying these matters. This
will be done after a thorough COM
p~arison an analysis Of similar laws
of other states. The Board will be
pleased to receive criticisms Of the
present law and constructive sug-
gestions as to what the law ought
to be. When the new bills r
finally drafted SO there will be some
thing concrete to consider at a
round-table conference. the Board
hopes to meet for that purpose
with the representatives of h var
ious business interests, SO the Legis-
lature will have before IL the re-
suit of the best endesvor on the
subject.

EICHT-HOUR DAY
Is Right, Says Steel Spokes.
man; Gary Was Wrong

Cleveland.-The Iron Trade Review
acknowledges that the late Judge
Gary and other opponents of the
eight-hour day were wrong.
This non-union spokesman for the
steel industry says sit is certain that
the increased efficiency of employees
and apparent added contentment in
the ranks of steel organizations have
resulted in economies in operation in
many lines"
No reference is made to the bitter
fight waged by Judge Gary and hi6
associates for the 12-hour day. Neither
is reference made to organized labor's
fight for steel workers who remain
outside the ranks of trade unionism.
After the nationwide steel strike,
which seemed to have such a disas-
trous end, Judge Gary, as chairman
of the American Steel Institute, an
nounce that the eight-hour day
would mean the employment of an ad-
ditional 10000 workers and an in
crease of Is per cent in steel prices.
Agitation, however, forced him to
quietly abandon his position.

ON SHAKY BASIS
Are Employers Pensions,
According To Labor
Office Official

Observation-Disclosures warnings are
heard against employers pension sys-
TENS. These plans are only operated
in non-union plants.
The durability and soundness of
these schemes are not proved beyond
doubt" says H. B. Butler, deputy di-
rector of the International Labor Of
flee.
The hardest blow dealt this sys-
tenn is report by the Pennsylvania
Commission on Old Age Pensions,
which was created by the legislature
of that State.
"As pension obligations are now
carried" the report says, "the COM
mission can not help concluding that
unless our present business prosper
ity continues indefinitely without a
setback, public or charitable agencies
will be forced in the long run to as
sumo the maintenance of many thous-
ands of workers whose employers had
led them to expect that they would be
granted pensions in their old age.
MANY of the heads of the big in
dustrial corporations who were among
the first to adopt pension provisions
of their own are now among the most
outspoken critics of current pension
methods"

NO PHILANTHROPY
IN HOME WORK

Harrisburg Pa.-Employers no
longer claim that work done for them
at home by employees is because of
philanthropy, says the Pennsylvania
Department of Labor and Industry
in survey of industrial home work.
"In spite of the fact that in the
past much stress has been laid on the
philanthropic motives of employers in
giving out home work, very few en-
ployers today are emphasizing phil
anthropy as reason for home work, I"
the department states. "Only five per
cent of the employers questioned said
that such motives entered into their
decision for giving out home work.
"The earnings of more than three
fourths, so per cent, of the home work
ers interviewed were found to be a
definite part of the family budget. In
some cases the need for this supple
menting of the family income was
much greater than in others"

GAS MAINS LEASE

The effort to initiate an ordinance
for leasing the city's gas mains to the
Columbia Gas Supply Company for a
period of ten years through a vote of
the people at the November election
has been abandoned by the sponsors
of the movement.
This is good, and the real sensible
and wise thing to do. The people are
not in the humor or frame of mind
at this time to have the city's gas
business tinkered with. This was
made plain in the quick action of the
North End and Fourth Ward I'm
provement Associations and Trades
Council in declaring opposition to the
petition calling for the initiative
ordinance.
There is no question but what the
proposition was in for a good wal
Looping had it come before the voters
in November. 1t has been a long
drawn out struggle TO get the gas
problem solved to where it is, that is,
we know what gas is to cost the city
the next ten years, we know all about
the leak and the approximate cost of
plugging it up, we know about what
it will cost for distribution and col
lection, and knowing all these things
the people are willing that the city
take crack at it on its own for at
least year or two.
After that we shall see what we
shall see. There will never be any
trouble to get the same proposition,
and perhaps better one, from the
gas company at any old time, for it
is plain to be seen that the company
is willing, and not only willing but
anxious, to take over the city's gas
distribution. So since the business is
in our own hands, which it will never
be again once it gets away, why not
try it out for what is in it, is the
sentiment with the big majority of
the city's gas users. And that is a
mighty shrewd thought at that, is the
real opinion of the Press-and many
others.
No, the leasing of the gas mains
is dead issue and the people are
willing that the dead rest.

WHAT PROHIBITION
DOESN'T PHOHIBIT

Four men got out of an automobile
in Maryland Free State, demanding
entry to house. A 77-year-old man
came out, armed with a gun, and told
them to stay out Of his house. When
the four men went away the old man
was dead. His wife says the invad-
ers killed him after he lay wounded
on the ground.
The four men were prohibition
agents. They suspected, they said,
that the old man ran a still. They
had no search warrant to enter his
premises. They had no business try
ing to get in.
Prohibition does not prohibit vio-
lation of the bill of rights, which most
Americans still fondly believe means
something. Prohibition doesn't pro-
hibit murder and assassination.
Such atrocities as this Maryland
killing could not and would not be
condoned in any other connection than
hysterical enforcement" of the Vol
stead act. Why should it be condoned
in that connection?
Sooner or later the American peo-
pie will get fighting mad about this
sort of terrorism-and then there
will be some kind of a new deal.
