Not by any ones language Like the article stated “Why Bid” if the Delta city fathers are so unfair When and while I was in the Delta City council for 18 years we as city fathers and people and citizens terested in the welfare of our town and saving tax money for our people here we did not have a Santa Claus to pay the bills We had to also be fair with bids to individuals and do the right thing at all times to our city tax payers Add two Delta City taxpayers need to wake up and find out how and where our tax dollars are being spent We are now furnishing transportation for police officers who live in Hinckley to come to Delta every day in a Delta City police car for work These police officers pay taxes in Hinckley We are also hiring a man from Tooele who lives with his family in Tooele and pays his taxes in Tooele This man works as the Delta City building inspector with an office in our new Delta City Building being paid by our taxes lives in Also the city administrator Provo As far as money and spending are concerned our Delta city fathers seem to think “Easy go” How unfair can they be to our Delta City tax payers Archie Barben Retired Delta City Councilman more votes to American party In the report from Fillmore No I Precinct there were two votes for the American Party Candidate Delmar Dennis for president Millard County Clerk Marlene Whicker said it was called to her attention that they were not reported in the paper research she found had failed to report her but they were votes After doing some that the precinct those two votes to indeed legitimate Community Calendar Because its whale must shift its line Sums West Main Delta hazardous driving So join Don Daly of Stockmans Jim Robson of Curleys and myself in encouraging our “Don’t Drink and Drive ask for a Ride Program” Gregory M Cooper Chief of Police Delta City taxpayers need to wake up Editorial 171 sumption of liquor by anyone planning to party and drive later consider the following tips: Use good sense in driving to shops on last minute errands Maintain your vehicle in shape for operation in winter storms which often hit at this time of year We wish you a great Thanksgiving and let’s celebrate it by working safetogether and keeping each other’s ty in mind by clearing the roads of decorations encouraged r'Y -
