My Get-1'- Taxpayers at Mass Meeting Okey Co. Hospital; Huntington Proposed as Site of the New Structure public meeting held last week in Castle Dale, voters present unanimously approved a proposal alcounty the county commission to file application for govlowing ernment participation in a proposed Emery County hospital. The vote carried, following a report given hv an appointed At a P Mrs. Fern Marshall 1 Wt would like to throw a verbal bouquet this week to the Green River Chamber of Commerce, and to the other organizations responsible for the planning and running ot the Canyon Country River Marathon. In our opinion, it was the most outstanding, smoothest run, well managed function which we have witnessed in a long time. Because of this undertaking, articles concerning the boating attractions, as well as other scenic areas of the county have been published in dozens of newspapers and magazines throughout the country. Ve feel that no single event has ever, or will ever do more to publicize tourist attractions or the vast inviting areas of the county as has this event. We are sure also, that those who attended and participated in this program will also be responsible for some outstanding advertising by word of mouth. Participants and spectators couldnt help but appreciate the efficiency of the whole function. To be specific, the free barbecue Saturday evening was well done, veil prepared, and enjoyed by more than 600 people. The dance in the evening, also free, wras also well attended. Sunday morning, between 5 and 6 a m., over 500 people were served a free breakfast, which was a'so acclaimed the best. Again we say that this cant help but publicize and help build the tourist potential of Emery county. man by the name of Harold Starred once said that the greatest of all arts is the art of losing ourselves in the service of others.

Beh-lin- Schedule Drawn Up George Wareham For Little League little league baseball schedule has been drawn up, involving teams from all parts of the county, which will be carried on throughout the summer months.

Beginning June 18 (last night), the schedule of games will run through the summer as follows' June 18 Ferron Giants vs Orangeville Dodgers, at Orangeville. Ferron Red Sox vs Huntington, at Ferron.

Ot course we were disappointed in the fact that the hospital will not be built in our own town, as everjone should be. But it should not embitter us to the point of withdrawing support from the project. With everyones support, every resident of the county can benefit from this project.

In the beginninQtwo years agOv by mass meetings in each town, it was the unanimous decision of the sured. Following this meeting, the county commissioners met with various city officials of the county, and after some three hours of deliberation Friday evening, submitted the proposal that if built, the new structure would be located in Huntington. The hospital survey committee, composed of Eva W. Conover, Ruth H. Bunderson, George Magnuson and Maurice Jensen, issued the following statement concerning their findings: After visiting the six hospitals, it is the honest conviction of this committee that Emery County can mantain a hospital if it is properly staffed with two or more good doctors and a personal administrator w ho knows how to operate economically and who will be dedicated to the work of making it a institution. In making the survey, committee members toured the following hospitals: Iron County hospital, Gunnison hospital, Richfield hospital, Panguitch LDS, Salina and Mt. Pleasant LDS hospital. For the purpose of this report, we wrill refer to the hospitals by letter from A to F, in the order listed. The hospitals varied in size, with hospital A having 41 beds; B, 16 beds; C, 24 beds; D, 20 beds; E, 17 beds; F, 26 beds. The proposed county hospital would include room for 20 beds. Population of the areas served by each hospital was as follows: A, 10,500; B, 8,000; C, 7,000; D, 9,000; E, 2,500; F, 11,000. Emery county population is 6,000. Taxes used for the maintenance of these hospitals, according to the survey, are: Hospital A, .5 mill, with assessed valuation of $44,500,-00- 0; B, 4 mills, valuation of $1,197,-81- 7 ; C, .5 mill, with $10,233,163 valuation; D, no levy; E, levy not listed. but tax paid by residents of the three cities involved last year was only $1,500; F, no levy. Emery county, with an assessed valuation of $11,482,038, already carries a 1 mill levy for hospital and indigent fund use, the money from which is now being spent in the Price hospital. Average wise, this amount is in excess of that needed to carry the maintenance load of the hospital, without any further taxation. The only additional costs to taxpayers, then, would be the expense of constructing such a building. Since Emery county has been placed on the priority list to receive Fund Act money, cost to Emery county taxpayers would amount to approximately $200,000. Carried on a bond issue, this amount could be repaid at a cost of less than $5.00 per taxpayer per Hill-Burt- on yeai. If the countys application for He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. this project is approved by the Parley Hinkins Jr., Huntington. government, and by the medical association, it will then be necessary for the county to conduct a bond election, to see whether or not county taxpayers are willing to assume this debt, in order to provide the county with first class A new organization was effected hospital accomodations. duung the past week in the county, in the form of an Emery County Sheriffs Posse, it was announced by Sheriff Don Kofford.
