Assessor Makes a
Statement as to
Taxing Property
Editor Standard: In referring to
the notice of yesterday in two of the
papers of this city that D C. Bcclea
was to move the headquarters to Ore
gon of some of his big Interests, I am
truly sorry If I have been the cause
of such action
I am a public servant of this county
and must do my duty, whoever it re
flects upon If in this case there has
been an Injustice done Mr. Eccles, wh
not turn to the legal phase of this mat
ter and determine who is at fault, the
law, Mr. Eccles or the assessor?
If the statutes of our state are at
fault and discriminate against such
companies as those directed by Mr. J
Eccles, wh not remain and help put
on to the statutes of the state, laws
that are fair and just to such inter
eets? If there has been any injustice
done, as so pertinently hinted at, by
the taxing of property here that Is
taxed in Oregon, how quickly thi?
could be determined and the wrong
righted, if such be the case.
I have followed the best Interpre
tations obtainable concerning the law
taxing such property, and applied the
rule to all alike in this matter to the
best of my judgment and ability. This
I must do, much as it grieves me to
see such rash actions taken as Mr
Eccles has decided upon
(Signed) O. M. SANDERSON.
Assessor.

GOVERNMENT GOODS
TO BE SHIPPED
TO UTAH
SALT LAKE. Aug. 13 United States
Senator William II, King has notified
Governor Bamberger that the present
plans of the war department call for
the distribution of I' tali's share of the
government supplies of foodstuff from
Omaha, where large quantities are now
stored Present arrangements, Sena
tor King says, are to ship the supplies
to the mayors of cities and to fill or
ders by parcel post. The plan does
not now contemplate distribution by
state officials, but rather by munlci
palities and bv parcel post direct. Sen
ator King promised to keep Utah ad
vised on the progress made toward
distributing the government's enor- J
mous war food reserves as a part of
the gigantic drive to reduce the cost
of living and end profiteering.
In response to inquiries put by Com
missioner Karl A. Schcld, Major W.
Mont Ferry made an informal and ad
verse report to the city commission
yesterday with regard to the advisabil
ity of purchase by Salt Lake of food
supplies offered for sale by the gOV
u nment.
Mayor Ferry expressed the opinion
that the consumer would reali" little
benefit from anv handling of the goods
by the city after the government prices
and overhead costs had been met. Ho
said no guarantee of quality can be
had from the government and that the
prices at which the government It of
fering the goods are not sufficiently
lower than the reta.ll prices in Salt
lake to constitute a safe dispo' with
desired economy for the consume. -..
Commissioner Scheid inquired spe
cifically about bacon, calling attention
to the fact that the government prices
are 34 and 36 cents, and that the re
tail price In Salt Lake for premier ba
con is 75 cents a pound. Mayor Ferry
re ponded with the explanation that
tbere was no guarantee of superior
quality with regard to the government
bacon and that bacon of one grade can
be had In Sal; Lake for as low as 30
cents retail. The matter went by de
l alt for the timo being, no definite
action being taken by the commis
sion, of which but four members were
present, Comiseioner Green being on
B vacation trip to Bear Lake.
Storage Plants Under Probe
Mayor Ferry exp'alned that the an
ncuncement from the governor's of
fice that the state was to take meas
ures to get some of Lhe food for dis
tribution here had tended to deter him
; from taking action, as well as had the
report that the supplies were to be
available to consumers through parcel
post.
Cold storage plants of Salt Lake are
still under Investigation by federal
j agents, and the search for large
I amounts of foodstuffs in refrigeration
I will be continued until the end of the
week.
