SMALL’S GRIP
ON STATE G. 0. P.
SEEMS WEAKER
Thompson Machine Also Gets i
k Blow in Primary
Election.
ILLINOIS NOMINATIONS
CHICAGO, April 12.—An apparent
weakening of the control of Governor
I/en jSmall and his supporters over the
Republican machine throughout the
State and of the control of Mayor
Thompson over Republican machinery in
Chicago was the outstanding result of
the State-wide primary election, returns
of which were incomplete today.
It is evident that Governor Small has
lost control of the Republican State'
committee and the majority by which hei
dominated the State Legislature either I
has been wiped out or reduced to a mar- j
gin too close for comfort. In Chicago:
the Crowe- Brundage faction of the Re- ‘
publicans. led by State’s Attorney Rob- j
ert E. Crowe of Cook County, and E. J. j
Brundage, attorney general for Illinois, !
nominated sufficient candidates in oppo- j
sifion to those supported by Mayor 1
Thompson to warrant designation of the 1
primary as a Crowe-Brundage victory, j
The Republican faction led by former
Governor Charles S. Dlneen was likewise]
a factor, nominating candidates for sev- j
oral important offices.
Defeat for renomination of Ira C. Cop
ley of Aurora and Clifford C. Ireland,
two of the best known Congressmen from
Illinois, was a surprise of the primary.
The “wet and dry” issue was a factor
in these campaigns. William E. Hull,
.one of the winners, was an out and out
kvet.
Congressman Richard Tates and Henry
R Rathbone are Republican nominees
for Congressmen-at-large. Mrs. Win!
fred Mason Huck, daughter of the late
Congressman William B. Mason, appar
ently has beer, nominated to fill the un
expired term of her father.
Martin B. Madden, James R. Mann.
M A. Miebaelson, Fred A Britten, Carl
R. Chindbloom, Edward .T. King, John
J. Gorman. Charles E. Fuller. Frank H.
Funk, Allen F. Moore. Guy L. Shaw,
Loren E Wheeler. E. P Brooks. Edward
E. Dennison" Thomas S. Williams and
William J. Graham are Congressmen
who have been renominated. All are
Republicans. Congressmen John W.
Rainey. Adolph ,T. Sabath and Stanley
H. Kane were renominated by the Demo
crats.
In the Danville district, where Uncle
Joe Cannon is retiring, the fight was
still unsettled today, with Dr. E. B.
Cooley and John H. I.ewman the lead
ing candidates for the Republican nomi
nation. I.ewman is leading.
Regular Democratic candidates, in most
instances, were nominated throughout
the State with little opposition.
Candidates May Group
Campaign Expenses
The corrupt practices’ act does not pro
hibit primary candidates from grouping
and paying campaign expenses out of a
common fund. Maurice E. Tennant, mem
ber of the State board of election commis
sioners. says In an opinion rendered to
the board. Attorney General X'. S. Lesh
in the opinion. A primary can
didate also may contribute to his party
treasury as well as to his owu expenses,
it was decided.

NEED OF HELP
FINANCIALLY
(Continued From Page One.)
Confidence was at a low ebb. Now there
are scores of persons who say the aid
they received has saved them ten years
in coming back.
Utah is not insolvent, it is making
progress, it is regaining confidence, it
is organizing to put- itself back on a
solid foundation. The chief interests of
the State arc copper, stock-raising and
sugar beets. It has two specialties that
do not enter in a large way into the
economic status of the State, but are,
nevertheless, interesting. One is raising
alfalfa seed, of which one county in the
State is the prir.iipal producer in the
United States; the other specialty is more
amusing. Every day throughout the sea
son a shipment of Utah roses is sent .o
Pasadena, Cal., where, presumably, they
are distributed as native products. At
any rate, no man has yet seen Utah
roses advertised in the Ticinity of Pasa
dena or Los Angeles. It is a trade se
cret from which Salt Lake derives con
siderable satisfaction.
MORMON CHURCH
BUSINESS AGENCY.
Another large interest in the State,
economically, financially, socially and po
litically, is the Mormon Church. The
church, as a business organization, is
heavily inteiested in the sugar beet in
dustry, and one gathers the impression
that one of its present efforts is to re
vivify and restore what is. perhaps, a
waning confidence in sugar-beet produc
tion. A great many of the Mormon
farmers raise beets, and for a time they
had to sell th°m below the cost of pro
duction. At the present level of prices
there appears to be profit in beet produc
tion, though there are informed persons
here who think it questionable whether,
even now, beets pay for themselves. Even
a casual Tisitor hears a shrill cry for a
good protective tariff on beet sugar. The
beet-sugar industry will want wise
handling.
The overshadowing news in Salt Lake
today is that the Utah Copper Company's
big mine Is reopening. This is the great
est mine in the State and one of the
largest in the world. It has been closed
a year. At one time before it closed it
was employing some s,otX> men and had a
monthly pay roll of about $400,000 that
flowed into Salt Lake City.
While copper is the largest interest in
the State in point of financial magnitude
it does not affect individually so many
as sugar-beet growing, sugar making and
stock raising, including both sheep and
cattle. The sheep and cattle men as else
where, are slowly coming into their own
again. They have been greatly helped by
the increase in prices. Bankers have
strengthened themselves and the banking
; condition is In a much better position
than it was six months ago. The crisis
in the State has passed and it has come

through la much better shape than tt bad
any reason to hope last autumn.
Conditions In Utah are affected by an
other consideration. This State* and
particularly Salt Lake City, finance, in
part, Nevada, western Wyoming and
southern Idaho and is, consequently,
necessarily affected by the slow recovery
in this tributary territory. It Is, there
fore, necessary to go Into Idaho before
one can see completely the present Utah
problem and outlook.
It lg a happy thing for Utah in that
it does not lack for sound, clear-sighted,
prudent financial leadership. There are
bankers at Salt Lake City who impress
one most favorably. They are carrytng
a heavy load of responsibility and have
been burdened with it for a year. They
believe they will work out all their
problems satisfactorily if they are not
forced, and they impress a visitor with
thc-lr ability to do what they have set
out to do.
The first job in all of this great west
ern country is to take care of the pro
ducer. and that aspect of the present
situation Is seen clearly by the local
individuals and interests who have the
task in hand.—Copyright, 1922, by Public

SCHOOL BOARD
IN QUANDARY
ON BUILDINGS
(Continued From Page One.)
Internal dissensions, but in controversies
with the State board of accounts and the_
State board of tax commissioners.
The Little Theater Society will be
given the use of Caleb Mills Hall or the
auditorium at Emmerich Manual Train
ing High School for their productions in
the future, free of ail cost except light
and janitor service, as a result of board
actions. The proposition was backed by
President Barry, who paid a tribute to
the spfendid work of educational value
he said the society was doing.
Residents from the neighborhood of
School No. 62, Wallace and East Tenth
street, were represented by a delegation
of members of the East Side Civic League
asking for the erection of anew building.
They got the usual •’form” talk from
President Barry about getting the build
ing “Just as soon is we see what rela
tion this school has to other buildings
and as soon as our finances permit."
Anew building was provided for this
school in the plans of the old school
board a year ago, but approval of the
bond issue was refused at that time by
the State tax board. Mr. Barry opposed
the bond issue at the hearings before the
tax board.

secretary of the East Side Civic League,
asking for the betterment of drainage fa--j
cilities at the school, resulted in a grand j
little game of “pass the buck." Members j
of tlie league said the letter was sent but i
that nothing had been done to remedy j
conditions and they had not even re
ceived the courtesy of an answer to their j
communication.
W. D. Allison, a board member, im- ;
mediately wanted to know all about the
case. Finally Walter J. Twlname, busi- j
ness director, admitted he had received
the letter and said he had turned it over
to Charles Emhardt, chief clerk in the
department of buildings and grounds.
George Rickes, superintendent of this
department, professed utter Ignorance of j
the subject. This left the buck In the
hands of Chief Clerk Emhardt. There
was a moment or two of embarrassed
silence and then someone tactfully
changed the subject.
However the relief asked for in the
letter that never came was granted and
Superintendent Rickes was ordered to
see that the ground about the building
was made to look more like a play
ground than a swimming pool.
Payment of the bill for $.847.63 pre
sented by the board of park commission
ers to the school board some time ago
for its share in the municipal concerts,
was ordered after an opinion from Al
bert Baker had been read.
Originally the board refused to pay the
bill on the ground that some of the print
ing for the concerts was doue by the
Enquirer Printing Company, of which
Clarence Crippin, at that time a member
of the school board, Is president. This
refusal led to an interesting and at times
spirited informal debnto between the

school board and the park board.
Mr. Baker’s opinion in effect said that
the school board had not taken any great
amount of interest in the conduct of the
concerts and therefore could not object
at this late date to the action of the one
body which did show Interest and run
the affairs.
The contractor on the apartment house
now under construction at Meridian and
Thirty-Fourth streets, will be required
to remove the dirt he has been dumping
on the Shortridge High School football
field directly across the street. The ac
tion was ordered by the board when it
was learned that no school official had
given permission for the dumping.
Children under 16 years of age who
attend regularly organized, reputable
business comply with the at
tendance law, was the opinion given by
Albert Baker. The question was brought
to the attention of the board recently by
the attendance department.
