Show 2 THE BOX ELDER NEWS, Brigham Gty, Utah Sunday, July 31, 1966 Three Handed Terms for EDITORIALLY SPEAKING Drunk Driving Three persons have been sen. tenced In Brigham City court recently on charges of drunk driving. They were: Dennis C. Yoder, 22, of 2375 Vote Every Year? Madison action of the city council Thursday in rejecting latest fluoridation petition is to be applauded. The matter was handled with dispatch and singleness of purpose as It should have been. (The (the The latest bid to block fluoridation in Brigham City certainly didnt come as a surprise. Opponents after the results of last year's city election vowed renewed efforts to keep the citys water "pure. Certainly It's the privilege of a citizen, disatisfied With decisions affecting his welfare, to attempt ltd do something about It. But putting the fluoridation questton to another vote this fall is carrying tthe matter to an extreme. The citizens of Brigham City have indicated their choice and it should he permitted to stand without r period between challenge for at least the municipal elections. two-yea- were placed on a special ballot this year and fluoridation given another majority endorsement, does that mean we could look forward to another vote the next year and the next? 'We elect public officials for four years to act In our behalf dn hundreds of decision making situations. No one has questioned 'this procedure and even though the mans opinions and judgement may clash with our own, we don't call for a special vote to choose somebody else. THE MERITS OF fluoridation and arguments it have been thoroughly aired In these columns. We dont intend to tramp over that ground again. However and with due respect for the .backers of a new vote there is one claim that should be answered. This relates to (the expense involved in fluoridation. IF THE PROPOSITION - SURE TT COSTS money. The installation will be near $7,500 and the estimated annual cost is set at $3,-00- 0. To decry fluoridation on the grounds of expense, however, is ,to stand on pretty shiakey ground. Even conceding that much of the water Is used to sprinkle lawns, take baths, wash down patios, etc., the cost Is reasonable for the 'benefits received. Where were those who oppose .this excessive expense when the budget hearing was held? Or when the council proposed to spend $30,000 for a new storm sewer or $12,000 to remodel the city hall? Or when other major expenditures were being considered? THERE IS NO money to toe saved in installation now even if voters were given a chance to change their minds. The equipment has been purchased and soon will toe installed. So unless youre talking about erasing the annual cost - which Is about 30 cents per capita annually -there is no savings to be realized. In fact, had (the council chosen to call a special election, it would have cost Brigham City an estimated $3,000 in expense. Since ithe council declined to set the special volte, it saved approximately the first years cosit of operating the fluoridation system. A Good Sign avenue, Ogden, $200 fine with a one.week stay of execution. Max Fredrick Cazler, 37, Brigham City, $200 and five days with stay granted to Aug. Bennett Jeppesen, 36, 559 North Fifth East, 30 days with a stay granted to Sept. 15. In other recent court action, Dennis Allen Odett, 21, of 4467 South 375 East, Ogden, was sen. tenced to 10 days for reckless driving. The court granted a stay to Aug, 26.

Brigham City Hosts Utah Firemen The Brigham City Fire De. partment hosted an Installation banquet for the Utah State Fire, men's Association Officers and past presidents, July 16, at the Tropical restaurant.

After all, it may be one with a hidden camera. - gun-happ- y Back Parade Move The Brigham City Chamber of Commerce decision to hold the Peach Days senior parade on only one day this year (Sept. 10) may meet with criticism on some fronts. But It has our support. The move was taken with good reason. Too few bands can be on hand for two days which has always had the effect of diluting the first-da- y procession. ALSO, A NUMBER of floats are not available tor both days, another detraction from what otherwise is one of Utah's finest parades - If not the best. The plan is to have the junior parade late Friday afternoon end to follow up with the senior attraction Saturday morning. THIS WILL GIVE the junior set a parade and a time all of their own while adding to the quantity and quality of the second-daevent. And is will cut the actual Dime both days. parade There are few, if any, disadvantages to Ithe change which should contribute to an even bigger end better Peach (Days celebration. y ist planning to overthrow a government In the comedy, The Secret of My Success, playing Sunday through Tuesday at the Capitol.

Rare Metal from Utah Copper Ore It is rhenium, an extremely rare metal that has helped the United States explore in space. Last year, only 2,000 pounds of the metal were produced in the country. Through Kennecott research, the Utah Copper Division annually will produce 4,000 pounds of ammonium perrhenate, from which rhenium is made. Used In In brief, the production cycle for rhenium is this: Copper ore contains a molybdenite, which is recovered at the Arthur and Magna concentrators. Previously, molybdenite was sold direct as an alloy to Space Capsules, Rocket Nozzles toughen steel. Today, the molybdenite goes to the newly constructed Molybdic Oxide and Rhenium Recovery plant at the Divisions smelter, where it is roasted to produce molybdic oxide. Annual production of this material is estimated at 10 million pounds. During roasting, vapor from the oxide is captured and undergoes a complex and highly sophisticated process to produce ammonium perrhenate. The perrhenate is then shipped to Kennecotts subsidiary, Chase Brass and Copper Company, where it is processed into rhenium metal.

Craghead, Is a development that could ultimately save the state of Utah many thousands of dollars. As described in a front-pagstory in today's News, Craghead has invented a camera device that will snap the picture of vandals who shoot at highway signs. Count us among the first to cheer the local mans accomplishment. It promises to reduce substantially one of the state's most disturbing and costly problems. THE IRRESPONSIBLE acts of persons who maliciously mutilate road markers represent a sad commentary on the modern age. It certainly shows a lack of reason and maturity; after all, the culprits likely are paying taxes that must be spent to replace the damaged signs. Shooting at tin cans would be cheaper. REVOLUTIONISTS? Who would guess that Shirley Jones could be a lovely revolution- 22. i i I n li These products of the new plant help Kennecott maintain its position as Utahs foremost industry. SfcTo produce one pound of rhenium requires the handling of approximately 84 million pounds of copper ore and waste material. The similar figure for one pound of copper is 500 pounds.
