PAGE EIGHT LEGALS OF SALE OF TAX ‘TIFICATES NOTICE CE subsequent « held by the advertis bidder £ U. S. GOVERNMENT IS NOW MAKING STRIDES INTO ECONOMIC TERRITORY (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Feb. 24—The y easiest way to make sense out of the latest act of congress and of recent constitutional decisions of Federal Courts is to ignore the - political fog for the moment and take a cash register view. What! actually is happening is this: The federal government is mak- ing strides into economic terri- tory that has been reserved for a hundred years or more for pri- vate citizens and corporations. No Gobbling This does not mean state social- ism or communism is just around the corner. Nor does it imply that 1 the federal government is going repre to 19 Do Also, Lot 10 corded in Deed Book The taxes t by certificate } represent tax to 1937, both Also, Lot Foundation ( to gobble private business.

The government expects to lose some money. It has already lost six odd millions of dollars in this field, a little more than 1 per cent of its “investment.” That's! because its terms are liberal. But Uncle Sam is willing to take a comparatively small rap on the chin in hope that the bill will en- | courage building and thereby get is giving the public a legitimate service. Coupled-with that decision. the lower. court ruling that approved the Tennessee Valley Authority— one of the biggest real estate de- velopments launched anywhere. That detision okéyed the whole scheme, including the right of the government, to produce and sell water power in the valley. The meaning of the lower court decision is substantially the same as that of the Supreme Court al- though,’ because it-approved the whole .Ténnessee project, it is much bfoader. This Gees not-imply that the government is going to supply all | the electric current in the nation any time soon, if ever. The gov- ernmént only conttpls 15 per cent of potential water power sites anyway- AX Governmental Trend Nevertheless the enlarging powers of ‘the government to go into business other than such fundamental activities as national defense, the courts, and law-mak- ing, is_a‘clear reflection on the trend of the times. This is the way thé Hoover committee on social trends put it, back in 1933: “It-is conceivable that without any surrender of our belief in the merits of private property, indi- vidual enterprise, and self-help, the American people -will. press toward a larger measure of public control to promote the common welfare. «One possibility is the furthér extension of the list of heavy industries going.

The United States government has decided it is about time the | fish had a program of “planned economy.” z So the U. S. bureau of fisheries and the Wyoming game and fish department are seeking informa- tion on the feeding, breeding and fighting habits of all the fish that live inf Wyoming. The purpose is to determine what types of fish are best suited to the various streams and lakes, what fish should live where and in what numbers. And of course the fish experts hope to improve the fishing. Special nets are used for trap- ping fish at different lake and stream levels. The nets are con- structed so that they catch the! fish behind the gills without harming them.
