It will be exhausted at that time unless something is done to boost revenues. Plans to do so are now before Congress. According to calculations, based upon the latest annual report of the Social Security Administration, Utah State residents have an estimated interest of $200,000,000 in the $44 billion in reserves currently on hand. THE STAKE of the Davis County population amounts to approximately $18,704,000. That is more than in many communities of its size. Bigger earnings locally have meant bigger contributions to the fund. THE SITUATION has led President Ford to propose an increase in payroll taxes, ef- - July parade, fireworks, mothers day program, beard growing contest, Clearfield city float to enter in the other parades held on the 24th of July and an art festival. MANY OF the costs of these activities have increased in the past year. One increase alone was in the cost of fireworks which will cost the Chamber of Commerce $825 for the same amount of fireworks which only cost them $600 last year. Mr. Bennion told the council that Dean Sessions has been named chairman over the July 4th parade this year and he plans to overcome many of the problems that existed with the parade in the past. EVEN THOUGH the council is very grateful for the support the Chamber of Commerce gives the city and for the fine job it does they could only give them the allotted $2,500 at this time. City Manager Gayle Starks said that they wouldnt want to commit the city to any more at this time but that later on they would look into providing the additional $500. mnm According to a proclamation made Tuesday night at the Clearfield City Council meeting by Mayor 0. Ross Sanders, April 21 is officially declared Blood Pressure Day in Clearfield. MAYOR SANDERS pointed out that as many as 14 million Americans dont realize that they have dangerously high fective next year. Congress opposes such a solution. It feels that raising taxes at a time when millions of people are out of work and the nation is just emerging from a deep recession is not advisable. ITS ATTITUDE is that the loss of assets from the fund will be reversed in the near future as the economy improves and more people return to work and resume their payments. Other ways of handling the situation, rather than raising taxes, will be considered if necessary. One of them would be to use general tax revenues as a partial source of financing. FOR RETIRED people and rethose contemplating tirement at some future time, assurance is given that they need have no fear that their interest in Social Security will blood pressure.
