A comprehensive municipal and school recreation park system, in- cluding swimming pools for the children of Casper. Completion of the established Loenic Route boulevard as planned by the county commissioners to Garden Creek Falls and return. Better roads for Natrona county and more highways for Wyoming. More equitable freight rates for shippers of the Rocky Mountain region and more frequent train service for Casper. DIRECTORS OF LARGEST CORPORATION POORLY QUALIFIED The United States is the largest eo-operation in the world. Its board of directors consists of congress and the president. These directors are selected by the voters as stockholders at the ballot box. Directors of private corporations are also selected by the stockhold- ers. Directors of private corporations are selected with care and because of their business ability. Directors of the United States are selected with little regard for experience or ability. That is the difference between private and public management. That is why private management is an economic success and public| management an economic failure. That is why the United States is perhaps the most poorly and ex-| travagantly managed corporation in the worid, the budget cut to the contrary notwithstanding. Many of its directors are incom- petent to manage a corner grocery yet are entrusted with the manage- ment of a corporation which direct- ly concerns the wefare of 100,000,- 000 people. Indeed with all our resources one cannot look in on congress without wondering that the United States is not in the hands of receivers. How a paper surplus of two hudred mil- lion was established is eomething of a miracle. If this great corporation is to be economically and efficientiy man aged, if well-ordered safeguards) and institutions of society are to be| preserved, if we are to escape the blight and curse of socialism-mov- ing upon us like a thief in the night under the shelter of public owner-| hip—stockholders in selecting di- rectors must at the ballot box ex ercise more care and prudence. We| nnot continue to select blatant} mogogues and incompetents and| long escape economic disaster. THE ATTEMPT TO REVIVE MONTE CARLO Sir Basil Zaharoff, Europe’s man-| of-mystery, who is often mentioned ne of the richest men in the one enterprise which hs re-| as on ncial the the world, has|‘ rlo, greate: "| that it has had an average of a mil- |his real nationality. tional five million dollars to restore the Casino to its accustomed glory. Great improvements are announced for the buildings and grounds. While adding to the capital invest-| ment, Sir Basil proposes to reduce| operating expenses. He has dis-| charged a thousand of what he calls nonessential employes. Monte Carlo is located in Monaco, the smallest country in the world. This little principality covers only eight square miles and has a per- manent population of about twenty- two thousand. The government gets all of its revenue from the Monte Carlo gambling industry. The amount to be paid annually is fixed by contracts covering periods of ten years each. At the present time the annual payment is a little less than half a million dollars. The} fion and a half visitors annually since the close of the world war. Concerning Sir Basil Zaharoff the public knows very little, aside from the fact that he is tremendous- ly wealthy and bobs up in various parts of Europe with millions enough to accomplish most any- thing he desires. It has even been stated that he is a billionaire. Al- though he was born in Greece, he became a naturalized citizen of France. His title, however, was given to him by Great Britain and hence it is difficult to determine Sir Basil is said to have been the strongest British financial agent during the world war, but little has been pub- lished concerning his activities along that line. No gambler is shrewd enough to win any of Zaharoff's money at Monte Carlo—the gamblers merely win from each other and a goodly portion of the money brought by visitors always stays in the Casino. Sir Basil does not gamble and the} citizens of Monaco are not permit-| ted to gamble. They by the gamblng losses of others LONELY HUSBANDS Once in a while an incident finds its way into print which marks like a sign-post the direction of the so- cial drift. Such was the fragi-com- edy enacted recently in a New York police station. A “well-dressed, pretty, young married woman,” who had given a fictitious name, tried to hang her- self in her cell to escape the dis- grace of the discovery of her arrest after drinking too much punch at a Saturday night party. The matron discovered the attempt at suicide and the woman was revived. Meanwhile the fact had been published, and no sooner did it ap- pear in print than husbands began to telephone from all over New York city asking for a more detailed description. Fifty such calls were reported before Sunday night, and more were coming in. Time was when the wife, left at home, worried about her husband's whereabouts. Evidently the shoe is now on the other foot. Hus- bands, or some husbands, left at home, worry about their wives.

CONSTRUCTIVE DEEDS SHOULD BE POLICY OF LEGION, SAYS OWSLEY Alvin Owsley, national commander of the American Legion, who comes to Casper July 26 for a day on his tour of Wyoming, believes that con structive activities of the legion should be emphasized above all other efforts. He recently issued the following statement to all legion officials: “In an organization as large as the American Legion, and one ha ving adopted the inclusive program which has been undertaken by the Ameri can Legion, it is but natural that from time to time, the alms and pur- poses of the legion will cross or con fllct with the interests of some other organization, group or interest and that such group or interest may at- tempt to embarrass the legion either directly or indirectly in any manner which appears to them best calcu lated to serve their own interests. “In the face of any such attempt, the national commander desires that all officials of the American Legion, national, departmental and post, co operate with him in avoiding any controversial act or public statement, devoting themselves more vigorously than ever to the constructive activi- ties of the American Legion, paying no attention to attacks or misrepre- sentations from any source whateer, confident that in the end, the verdict of the American people will be based upon actions and not upon empty misrepresentations, “The American Legion can only be injured by its own conduct. The things which it does, or the things fails to do, in the last will determine its proper We have neither the time nor the energy to spare from the great work which we have unde= taken, to reply to all those who would atack us.
