This patrol is now organized, and is recruiting new members with drive vehicles. The first meeting will be held tonight, Friday the 27, at 7:00 p.m. Sheriff Larsen is asking that each person owning such a vehicle think this over very carefully and consider he has an obligation to his community and his county. Special training wall be given each deputy to make him capable of saving lives and to act in times of national erne rgency. Sheriff Jensen advises that this is more than a fun loving gioup of men that will be able to get together and tour the mountain. From the desk of Senator Rees January 20 was the week we were given the budget message from the Governor that is required by law. There is an increase in spending of $104.5 million over the current biennium. The total estimate is $685.96 millon dollars. Of this amount some $203,412,747 is federal money. Major increases include higher education increase of $29 million, public education about $25.5 million; health and wel- fare 17 mllion. More than 10 of million additional because the building bonds of 65 million voted last regular session which I voted against. The state property tax is figured to remain at 7.3 mills for the next two years. Please note that the property tax on a state level is determined after the legislature finishes its session and is fixed high enough to meet the expenditures necessary out of the uniform school fund for the maintenance and operation of the schools. In order for the legislature to be faiilv sure there will be no property tax rise it is necessary that we do not reduce our tax base to any extent and do not over spend on the budget. I feel sure we will not do this but when you read of bills passing or failing to pass which reduce or raise taxes, remember they may affect your property tax. Enough of that for this time. In regard to bills, I said I would help repeal the voter registration by party law in the Primary Election. This is Senate Bill No. 1. It was passed by the Senate January 18 with only three dissenting votes. I voted for this repeal and talked on the floor of the senate in favor of the bill. Some of my friends told me one of the broadcasting companies said I voted against this bill which was incorrect. In my campaign I said I would help repeal this law and I helped get the repeal bill passed in the Senate on its way to the House. In order for Utah to continue on Standard Time it is necessary for the legislature to pass a law providing that Utah con tinue on Standard Time. Otherwise we will go on Daylight Savings Time in April according to the new Federal law, Senate Bill 13 provides that we continue on our present Standard Time. I am in favor of this. If you object write me at the Senate Chamber. I am staying at the Belvedere Apartments in Salt Lake City and you Telephone can reach me there or at the Senate Chambers. I hope this article is not too long. I will try and keep them more conEM-190- 1, cise. Senator Stan Rees the Manti Kempo Karate dio, 45 West 5th South. Stu- MT.
