Show ' All That Glitters .. . Midvale must not sell its businessmen down the river for the sake of a few thousand dollars of federal aid highway" money. The prospect of a "gift" of $70,000 of federal aid funds to' remove the railroad tracks, widen Center St., resurface it, and install traffic medians is alluring, indeed. $70,000 a lot of money . . . it would take about 12 mills tax to raise that much in Midvale. But it should also be remembered that to get that $70,000 back from Washington to Utah, Utah had to send about four times that much to Washington . . . around $280,000. Businessmen often have a way of looking Volume 31 at fiscal facts that politicians and engineers lack. One of the state spokesmen made a considerable point of dangling the $70,000 Ibait before his listeners and threatening that unless the federal "regulations" are lived up to (in other words, unless the state's plan is accepted without argument) the federal funds would go to another project. Such a prospect is not frightening to a man who was a businessman before federal aid was thought of, and one of them quickly countered, "If the state will get rid of the railroaed tracks, they can take Center St. off, the state high.' 7 J ' way system and Midvale will build its own road." '.' This man is not insane; he merely realizes that a aid is not a "gift" and that sometimes the disadvant- ' ages outweigh the advantages. He had heard several businessmen declare that they could not exist on the business they get from one side of the street alone. He could see that if these establishments closed their doors, Midvale would immediately lose the sales tax on their sales, plus the property taxes they pay. He visualized that Mid vale's sales tax receipts, now nearly $50,000 a year, could dwindle to $25,000. His vision, which any businessman must have, showed him that Midvale would be farther ahead to forego the federal aid, to spend for two years or so the $25,000 a year to build the street, and get the job done the way Midvale wants it done. He knows, too, that instead of spending $70,000, Midvale would spend less; perhaps only half, because state and federal jobs always attract higher bids than mere city jobs. And Midvale wouldn't build the expensive medians that the business men hate. His business sense tells him that the $70,000 federal money is not the great juicy plum that some officials claim it to be; that it could be a millstone around the necks of Midvale businessmen who cannot convince median-mindeengineers that the volume of business from only one side of the street will not maintain their establishments. And he is ri'dil. hard-head- ed Shooting Safety Sieminar Slated For Ft. Douglas ' ix f, ; fed-er- ...
