Peabody Survey Urges Idaho Education Reform and Civic Duty
The Peabody survey argues opposition to a new state university retards education for Idaho’s 6500 higher learners, compares Idaho with Utah and neighboring states, and urges voters to support broad educational reform. It notes St Joe River as the highest navigable U.S. stream and recalls log transport by brail and tugs to sawmills around Lake Coeur d’Alene.

Federal Land Tax Burden in Idaho Shaped by Federal Ownership
Earl W. Murphy of the Idaho State Chamber of Commerce cites that about 66 percent of Idaho’s land is federally owned, 25 percent privately owned, 6 percent state owned, and 1.4 percent county owned. He notes 3 percent shifted from private to government control from 1940 to 1944 and questions if taxable wealth can sustain government costs on shrinking private land. Forest service receipts totaled about 221000 for the year ending June 30, 1945.
