The others are varied in nature and effect None can be said to be included among the measures generally regarded as of statewide Importance. These, Including the direct primary, old age pensions, homestead tax exemption and tax and revenue raising measures are yet to be disposed of by final action.

Although the problem has received considerable discussion before by Individuals and organizations, members of the Magna-Oarfle- ld Lions Club feel that definite action must and should be taken immediately. The sewer system may still be financed through grants and labor of the WPA, with the stipulation that Magna incorporate for improvement purposes only. The WPA gives 45 percent of the loan outright while the remaining 55 per cent must be borrowed. Information la also given that should this project go through each resident must put In his own home equipment and pipe connections to street. C. J. Ullrich, engineer, states that Magna is an ideal site as It has a natural drainage and will require no pumping for the sewerage waste. South Central Park, the new incorporated town on the border of Salt Lake City, has financed a similar proposition, costing each taxpayer $1.35 a year for 18 years which is included on their tax notice. Thus, no extra bother or fuss Is Involved In collecting or assessing the money. The Magna-GarfleLions Club plan to make this one of their major projects of the year and are earnestly working on it.
