Governor Emerson Proclaims Forest Week
Stresses Value of National Forests

Declaring that the national tim
Der supply has been reduced alarm
ingly in the last SO years, Gov,
ed the week of April "a to 80 as
American Forest week and April
rs as Arbor Day.
1.-THE full significance of the
dependency of our general welfare
and happiness on tree and plant
life often fails to be realized and
now with the season at hand when
the evidence is all around us of the
reawakening of nature, it is fitting
hat thought and action, both indi-
vidual and collective, be directed to
perpetuating u great forest heri-
tage," he said.
I'm Wyoming we are SO rich in
natural that there is diff
ficulty in adjusting the conception
of our forests as an exhaustible
store house over to an acceptance
of the problem of making trees a
growing crop which must be pro-
tected, nurtured and harvested.
Our national timber supply has
been reduced alarmingly in the last
SO years and in the eastern states
is gone. and We must now face the
problem Of consumption exceeding
production fairly and squarely and
work out a logical solution as other
great problems of our national well
fare have been met and solved.
But forests are more than tim
Der and the beauty of scenery.
Our outdoor and recreational inter
ests, our wild life and the still
more basic factors of our water
supply and stream control for ir=
rigation and for water power, are
all involved. 1t is our task now to

WYOMING BOARD HOLDS
TAX LAW IS NOT VALID

Notwithstanding possible prior
opinions by state attorney generals,
the state board of equalization be-
lieves that the law exempting taxa
ton of manufactured products is
unconstitutional and is instructing
county assessors to tax them.
A notice sent put by Fennimore
Chatterton. member of the board
says that the state stands ready
to test its ruling in the courts.
"If any of them (manufacturers)
would be willing to have a test case
made, this can be accomplished by
a friendly injunction suit against
the assessor and the cast taken to
the supreme court at once. upon
reserved questions" says the notice.
Both raw materials and finished
products are to be taxed.

prehend only points in states which

ficient petroleum to supply their
own gasoline needs. There are
many other points in states of the
one class or the other at which the
prevailing gasoline prices are only

price.
Comparison of the Cheyenne
price with prices prevailing at
points in states which, like Wyom-
ing, produce petroleum more than
sufficient to supply their gasoline
needs. provides further food for
thought. For example, the prevail
ing price at Oklahoma City, Okla
homa, is 16 cents; the prevailing
price at Ell Paso, Texas Is IS cents,
and the prevailing price al Los
Angeles, California, 1914 cents. The
"all California" prevailing price is
less than IA cents.
Anyone who compares Wyoming
gasoline prices with prices in other
states can not avoid wondering why
the Wyoming prices are not lower.
As hereinbefore remarked, "Why?"
has been asked frequently without
eliciting a definite. exact answer.
There is nothing for which there
is not a reason. Some things, how
ever, can no be justified by valid
reasoning.

TABOO THE PEDDLER
NO GOOD FOR TOWN

l.. p. Loomis. editor of the Tor
rington Telegram. is commenting on
the nuisance of p%eddlers, says
Somehow. we always like to look
at a residence which has a sign on
the door something like this:
No peddlers, ~canvassers nor
statesmen admitted" A home is a
place to live and enjoy. and not "a
bargain counter. The place to sell
merchandise is in the stores"
Mr.. LOOMS has certainly hit the
spot in his short editorial. He has
really cited the bad effects of the
peddler and in a mild
way.
