Central Utah Project Gains Support WASHINGTON - The powerful chairman of the Senate Appropriations Appropria-tions Public Works Subcommittee today informed Sen. Wallace F. Bennett, R-Utah, that he has asked the Nixon Administration to provide pro-vide new and adequate financial assistance for the Central Utah Project. In addition, Sen. Allen J. Ellender D-La., said that his committee "will respond to the needs of the country....in meeting the water resource re-source needs of our expanding population." Sen. Bennett, on August 13 had appealed directly to the Subcommittee Subcom-mittee Chairman for support in increasing in-creasing the budget for the Central Cen-tral Utah Project this year from a current $8 (m) million to $15 (m) million. Sen. Ellender, in a letter to President Pres-ident Nixon said, "We are doing far too little either of a preventive or of a developmental nature and are in: fact annually decreasing, rather than increasing, our actual effort in the field of water resources re-sources and flood control projects." Sen. Ellender said, "Appropriations "Appropria-tions for water resource development develop-ment has been a matter of concern to me for a number of years. We must do what we can to protect our two most inportant resources,1 'SERVING Vol. 60 No. 12 Thursday, September 18, 1969, Delta, Kiii ram iiniiir"")r if tim THE "D" SPIRIT is running high these days at Delta High School as the Rabbits enjoy a 5-0 record in pre-season play under Coach Brent Rock. Highlighting High-lighting pre-season play was a trip to Henderson, Nev. over the weekend where the Rabbits thumped their hosts to the tune who worked so hard in developing a self-liquidating loan to electrify such a vast area. Once again REA pattern for rural electrification has demonstrated its great potential for the development of our rural areas." The loan was signed by REA Administrator, David A. Haniel, who said the loan is "the culmination culmina-tion of 10 years of hard work by the poeple to gain the advantages of electricity. The proposed system is a prime example of REA's long' established area coverage policy. All ranches, farms, irrigation wells and other rural establishments that can possibly be reached will get electric service in this last great power desert in the Continental United States." "; :- About 90 of the service area of the new cooperative is in the east Central Nevada in the Coun ties of Eureka, Elko, Nye and White Pine. West Cenral Utah represents rep-resents about 10 of the service area in the Counties of Millard, Juab and Tooele. Under the provisions of the loan Mt.

These facilities incllude 196 miles of distribution dis-tribution lines serving 3,358 consumers con-sumers and 10 miles of 40-kilowatt transmission line. Acquisition of the property was necessary in order for the cooperative to reach out and serve the widely scattered consumers on a feasible basis.

The Louisianna lawmaker listed for President Nixon eight projects-including projects-including the Central Utah Project in Utah as those which have suffered "the most serious cuts." Sen Ellender told Sen. Bennett that he said to President Nixon "In spite of the fact that next to the air we breathe, water is our most precious resource, it seems the Bureau of the Budget first looks to the water resource program for a disproportionate share of any contemplated cuts whenever there is a need to reduce Federal expenditures." expen-ditures." Sen. Bennett, who has repeatedly urged the Bureau of Reclamation and the Bureau of the Budget for adequate fnding for the Central Utah Project hailed Sen. Ellender's action and said, "Of course, all of us interested in Utah's water development de-velopment are extremely pleased by this new and important support we have received from the subcommittee sub-committee chairman. I am personally person-ally gratified that he has listened to our testimony, to our requests for help and has responded by placing the Central Utah Project on a list of those projects which should gain new financial assistance."

Helland, Director of High ways, State Road Commission, was in Delta Sept. 4, 1969 at the public hearing on the overpass improvements improve-ments now in the planning. While Mr. Helland was in Delta, Rep. Homer U. Petersen, discussed the load capacity of the structures on US 50-6 over the Melville-Delta Canal, Melville East Side Canal and the Sevier River. These structures are now posted ten-ton limits. Rep. Petersen persuaded the Road Commission to inspect the structures as he has observed many state road trucks, with limits far exceeding the posted ten-ton limit, using the structure several times daily. This week Rep. Petersen received a letter from Blaine J. Kay, Highway High-way Engineer. Mr. Kay reported in the letter that the State Road Commission Com-mission Structural Engineer had inspected the structures and had found them to be in good condition condi-tion and can safely support a 15-ton 15-ton load. The District Office has been directed to revise the posting from ten to fifteen tons. The structual engineer further found that the structures could be made to carry the regular highway loading by utilizing the existing substructure and replacing the superstructure (beams and docks) which could be accomplished at an estimated cost of $50,000. The Dept, of Highways is hopeful EDITORIAL ON THE A lot of attention has been focused on Millard schools in recent re-cent weeks. Much of this has stemmed stem-med from the voiced fear by some school patrons that the ninth-grade class of the vocational guidance course, Pedapop, is a way to introduce in-troduce Sex Education into the school. The Chronicle is convinced that narents have no more to fear from Pedapop than from Physical education, educa-tion, Home Economics, Health, Biology, Social Studies or Literature. Litera-ture. We're convinced that Pedapop is exactly what school administrators administra-tors have said. It is an attempt to lead students to self-knowledge. We're not entirely convinced, however, of the necessity of the course. But, we think it is necessary neces-sary as Physical Education. Home Economics or Drivers Education and others. And we're more appreciative apprecia-tive of the philosophy behind the class. But why the fear of Sex Education? Educa-tion? This we cannot understand. If parents are responsible in bringing up their children, then factual education, presented objectively and impersonally, on matters of sex cannot bring about moral decay. de-cay. And we feel those parents who want the schools to take over teaching their children about matters of sex have the same right to expect this help as those parents who want the schools to teach , ' physical education, home econom ic and drivers education. What do parents want from their schools? Do they want and expect JACKIE EVANS, Delta, exhibited exhibit-ed prize-winning lamb which won champion honors at 29th annual Southwest Livestock Show in that the improvements can be made in view of the accelerated activities' in the metal industry which will increase the volume and size of truck traffic in the future.

POSTER PAPER Poster paper at the Chronicle, in white and a wide variety of colors, now sells for 20c a sheet. h KlmmI M I '1(1 I Jh IIP PPl iiiM FENCE the schools to teach children everything every-thing about life and getting along with others in addition to teaching them reading, writing, English, mathematics, spelling, history, and other traditional classes? If so, then such courses as physical phy-sical education, home economics and possibly sex education ar?, indeed, necessary. Because they are 8" about life. The Chronicle feels there has been "Much Ado About Nothing". And we're going to be on the fence about sex education. We will not work for such a course in Millard schools. Nor will we work against. SCHOLARSHIP CONTEST The International Printing Week committee of Utah this week mailed mail-ed to Mr. Jack Fowles, principal of Delta High School, an invitation to high school seniors to participate in a statewide essay contest entitled en-titled "Tomorrow's Printer in Tomorrow's To-morrow's World."
