You TO THE i Hort Association Chronicle enjoyed Dear Sue We do enjoy the Chronicle Progress even though we left Millard County over thirty years ago Keep up the good work Thinking you very kindly I remain Mrs Floyd Utley (Faun Warner) Thanks Delta community We would appreciate it very much if you would print this letter of thanks to all the helpful and friendly people we encountered in our very brief stay in Delta Uuh We would like to thank Ann Jackson tor her help in locating the in the Sheriff l Dept end later for calling Dan Brirgard We would also like to thank Moms Burton and Sieve Allred of the Sheriff s Dept in their unselfish efforts to help locate someone who could help us with our burned out alternator We would also like to express our thanks to Dan Bringard for his much appreciated time in fixing cur car early on a Sunday morning We would also like to thank the man who opened his business so we could get the alternator aid belt Our heartfelt thanks and gratitude goes out to all these people We would also like to thank all die friendly people who offered to help Please do not change how you all are it was so pleasant to find a town that is still full of friendly and helpful people The Bittner family Lemoore CA Energy farming proposal With the current events in the Persian Gulf it seems like a good opportunity to address some important issues !t is obvious the Persian Gulf is so important to the rest of the work! because most of the world largely depends on those oil producing countries for their energy Hence our government sees that it is not only worth our effort to work and worry about the current events but it is also worh the lives of American men and women How long can we continue to control that area of the world? Why is it that some people feel they must try to control others or that they should cause harm to another or oppress them oe exploit them? We feel that we must ccmtrol die countries so that we can keep and sustain our way of life Our government makes it clear that this is one of the justifications for war But this is doing exactly what we accuse our enemies of our way of life on another What the government fails to admit is fighting with other countries is only an option not a necessity If we lose an energy supply that supports a certain way of life instead of killing our brothers and sisters why can’t we come up with a way of life that allows us to live m harmony with them? We should use our natural resources to their maximum This country has great agricultural abilities But ever since die industrial revolution our agricultural resources have become die victims of exploitation instead of economical progress Our lands are contaminated our waters are poisoned (Selling water has become a dollar Jpmual business when it wasn't long ago that Americans drew their water from the land) and our air is filthy In just a few short centuries we have been able to accomplish what our forerunners had the sense not to do The natives of this land lived on it for millennia without polluting it one iota The whites found this land “clean" “teeming with life" “virgin" Can’t we learn something? The answer is right in our back yard We can grow our energy The Arabs dig theirs we should grow ours Now die story grows more complex What history and science tell us is that there is a plant a crop a source of biomass that can be grown very In fact it is the most efficient plant known in the world It is a plant that can grow in all fifty states Until the beginning of the twentieth century this plant was the leading source of fiber paper food protein and the textile dustry The shipping industry depended on it heavily for everything on the ship except the actual wood and metal It went into the sails tacking rope pitch tailor’s cloths records everything It was grown and transported around the world for centuries It is a plant ten times more efficient than com in manufacturing methanol-- a dean fuel When methanol bums its are water and carbon dioxide Our cars would run more efficient and clean is which Through pyrolysis burning without oxygen this biomass can be made into charcoal that can be burned for energy instead of the coal The advantage of this is that the charcoal from the biomass is returning carbon molecules that have been removed in the previous year recycling the system instead of adding carbon molecules that have been under the surface of the earth for millennia essentially adding new carbon molecules which add to the system This biomass can be renewed annuIn ally and in some states effect this biomass can be used to help replace most of our energy needs and we would become totally energy We could even begin exporting it Our fanners would be able to grow crops and compete in a freer market instead of being paid by tax payers to let the land sit idle Here is my suggestion: Our nation’s best natural resource in HEMP It emits no radiation it would be easy and inexpensive to convert existing facilities to bum it and we would never have to bum another piece of coal or cut down another tree But that’s not all! The benefits are so great that this option warrants s serious consideration and investigation No one’s talking about legalizing any drugs Drugs have nothing to do with it The growth of our economy and the health of our world have everything to do with it American farmers would be back to work doing what they do best our paper and clothes would be of a much better quality and last much longer it is ten times more efficient than com our cars and trucks would emit no more poisonous gases and pollution industries would no longer cause' acid rsin the greenhouse effect could be halted Instead of looking to answers for die problems that currently plague our planet such as war contention slavery nuclear bombs let’s turn to the answer our Mother Earth has provided for us— a res! gift from Creation Truly this plant is the healing ofjhe nations So some of you m y ask if this is true why hasn’t our government done it yet? The government has known about the possibilities of hemp for a long time but because of the game of politics has kept it down When confronted last year their answer was that they cannot incorporate the plant that can save the earth because it is illegal It’s a long story that I don't have time to go into now but what’s important is that we wake up to what is possible and use the democratic system to force our government to take positive action Why not start right now in the state of Utah? I challenge the government of this state to set an exgroundample in adopting breaking healthy legislation that will pave the wsy for a freer form of freedom Freedom that gives a chance to our farmers and private businesses to capitalize on the possibilities and begin saving our state in the mean time When America is dependent on other nations for its energy it is not free at all It is like an addict So instead of using force to support our addiction let’s get and live in peace and harmony with our brothers and listers I am willing to answer any and all inquiries debate anyone etc Let’s show how Uuh can act the example and pave the way for a better world and nation Then we wouldn’t have to worry so much about what is happening on the other side of the world We can let the countries solve their own problems Maury Modine Candidate for House of DisL 45 Representatives So Jordan Where to write Gulf soldiers If you have friends or relatives volved in Operation Desert Shield here is how to contact them by mail: — Mail for Army Air Force and Marine Corps members may be sent to Operation Desert Shield APO New York — Mail for Navy and Marine Corps members stationed on ships around the Arabian Peninsula may be sent to Operation Desert Shield APO New York Mail to individual Army members identified by name rank and service number may be sent directly to an Army Post Office number set up for six of the Army units in Saudis Arabia They are: — 101st Aiibome Division APO 09309 “At least once a year — everyone is a genius GC Uchtenberg - 82nd Airborne Division APO 09656 24th Infantry Division APO 09315 — 1st Corps Support Command from Fort Bragg APO 09657 — 197th Infantry Brigade APO09315 — 1th Air Defense Artillery Brigade APO 09656 — 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment APO 09209 The US Postal Service is advising people not to send packages ' through military mail addresses USPO spokesman Azcezaly Jaffer said only first class letters up to 12 ounces are being accepted it military post offices (APO or FPO addresses) by Kea (good mine fields make good neighbors) Rand The solution to all the whoopubb in the Mideast sand pile is simple really: eliminate borders Yeah dial’s the ticket No borders no wars libThis eral commie pipe dream approach to called is worldwide problems solving “fjtopian" which means it won’t work because it came from some liberal commie’s pipe smoke And since I’m a liberal commie pipe smoker you’d think I fancy the idea I don’L I think borders are important Borders help us tell the Good Guys from the Bad Guys The Good Guys are over here The Bad Guys are over there This arrangement makes it easy for the average Joe and Josephine Sixpack to know who to hate without thinking about it too hard I call it "McTh inking" like TV news Sure without borders we would all live in peace harmony brotherhood sisterhood blah blah blah But that Howard includes Saddam Hussein Coscll Neil Bush and that twit who just stole my parking place Sure without borders there would be no foreigners and without foreigners there would be no foreign policy therefore no war and so no need for the Pentagon the military or Dick Cheney But think of Dick Cheney and all those generals defense contractors and congressmen unemployed Who would pay for their BMW’s? And sure without borders there would be no Utah no Pork City not even a Billiard County But who are north Billiard County ites going to bicker with if there is no south Billiard County? (Extra credit essay question: should the nuclear treaty apply to north and south Billiard County? Explain) If you don't know where the border is how do you know when you’ve gone too far? Borders give us freedom of choice Few many half the fun of traveling is getting out of Utah Imagine: the whole state is surrounded by a border a person can cross to be somewhere else Borders define all our basic freedoms Some people inside some borders Thomas Jefferson cards Borders are also useful scientifically as in time zones You know to set when you your watch back 000 yean enter Iraq Even animals recognize borders as in the “territorial imperative” used to separate boy elk from the men elk It ensures the men elk have enough girl elk time so that there at are enough for us to kill next seastwi The Mormon cricket has been endowed with an instinct that tells it that once it reaches a jillion per square yard it’s time to move on and destroy somebody elses crops If farmer didn’t have fences the cricket wouldn’t know when it was m the neighbor’s field Fences also help separate cows from car grills Or take the little white line down the middle of the road It too is a border of sorts designed to keep large trucks out of my grill This concept is not subject to liberal interpretation In a way even skin is a border separating our insides from our outsides Any other interpretation is messy When we note the lesson taught by the Iraqi invasion and annexation of Kuwait - that borders are flexible like we give credulity to the Spandex claim that borders are a product of the human imagination That would make borders s political problem But figure this: if we can imagine borders how is it that we can’t imagine the lack of them? No borders are a biological not a political concept As long as there sre humans some will bathe less than others and borders will be needed to profrom sub- tect the Conflict accompanies differences No stone will go un thrown as far as Which is just I'm concerned T ake a look at any daily newspaper and figure this: without borders would we need reporters? Borders then mean job security And if we're going to have a recession because of a border war in the Midcast I'll need all the job security I can get A fed better You and so wO your chfid 1 Take a deep breath And another Then remember you are the adult 2 Close your eyes and Imagine you're hearing what your child is about to hear 3 Press your lips together and count to 10 or better yet to 20 4 Put your child In a time-ou- t chair (Remember the rule one time-ou- t minute for each year of age) 5 Put yourself In a time-ou- t chair Think about why you are angry is It your child or Is your child simply a convenient target for your anger? 6 Phone a friend 7 if someone can watch the children go outside and take a walk Take a hot bath or splash cold water on your face 9 Hug a pillow 10 Turn on some music Maybe even sing along 8 many helpful words as you can think of save the list 12 write for prevention Information-Nationa- l Committee for Prevention Child IL “ Take things always by their smooth handle -- sre less free than others inside other borders But does that mean that people who recognize no borders are more free than those who do?
