It is abundantly distributed throughout the country and requires minimal recovery expense. ex-pense. It's a source of energy which has few outlets. It's a producer of ideas which have few listeners. It's a possessor of skills which are given few applications. It's a wealth of experience ex-perience with few avenues of exploitation. It's America's forgotten people our senior citizens. The casual disdain with which American society regards the elderly is a national disgrace.' Millions of capable and productive people are denied the opportunity to use their abilities while being forced to fend for themselves them-selves as inflation ravages their fixed incomes. Fortunately, Park City is blessed with a vital, active and organized Senior community which is ; not content to sit on their collective duffs waiting to become more senior. They take worthwhile ideas and turn them into worthwhile results. In fact, they are now in the process of transforming a dream into a reality for they will soon have a building to call their own; And it will be a senior activities center, not an old folks home. We would like to congratulate the Park City Senior Citizens on the acquisition of their new facility. There's not a more deserving group nor a group that could make better use of the ground and building. You guys might be moving a little slower than you used to but you're sure moving.

Our desk received the treat at 3: P.M., the operator immediately im-mediately advised the police; officer Huggard had me on . the phone by 3:05 requesting authority to vacate the hotel. I arrived at the C'est Bon at 3:10 simultaneously with Chief Lund who wasting no time on social amenties joined officer Huggard in a room by room search. By 3:20 all of our guests were out of the building,' the officers continued their search. Not withstanding the duress and tenseness of the moment, these officers had the presence of mind to open and prepare the fire hose stations for immediate use. I prevailed upon the Chief to have them leave the building with us, his response was negative stating it was their duty to take up stations preparatory for fire control and garnering of evidence. I was ordered to leave. I did! Miners To Meet With Co.

"We had a good percentage of the men at our meeting last week, and we appear to be just as strong as we were." he added. How About It? Do you think the Howard Hughes will that was recently found in the LDS office building is authentic? Dorothy Richardson I have my doubts, although I don't know what I would base them on. There are obviously some things that will have to be proven. , Harriet Macgregor Yes, I do. Just because they can't seem to find any thing wrong with it. Jim Doilney Actually I picked up Howard hitchhiking in Southern Utah when I was down there backpacking in 72. Since he didn't remember remem-ber me in the will they found I can't believe it's authentic. " Gary West I think it's worth a try for the Mormons but personally I don't buy it.

Corky Foster Of course I do and that's why the Park City rugby club Action Ten mirtateizaPidnAhe zero hour the 'Chief joined ' me (I was a 100 yards away) and was advised that Alex was still searching and that we now have to contend with the possibility of a second zero hour being 3 : 30 standard time rather than the day light savings which just took place that day. Chief Lund then commented on the mechanics of bombs in that they cannot operate beyond a 12 hour cycle, I never thought of that before, but then again, I have no reason and I hope to never again have the use of this knowledge. Inasmuch as our building has 80,000 plus feet, there is a lot of area to search, the officers continued searching, staying in the zone of danger until well after the second zero hour. After S p.m. the officers left with an apology that they didn't have time to relock all the rooms. Lord, it took guts to face two crisises, both unknown, I can appreciate bravery in action and man's natural response to danger in action; but facing two hours of what they did, not knowing where or :- how and to what extent it would happen, requires something special in man. I salute and applaud them! Very truly yours, Leonard W. Jarosz Fireworks Scheduled Plans for Park City's Bicentenial Fourth of July celebration got off the ground and into the air Thursday night as the city council approved the purchase of a professional fireworks display. The show, titled "Son's of Liberty" will consist of a variety of displays that will travel 200 to 600 feet in the air before and while they are exploding. Although the cost of the 15 to 1R minute extravaganza is normally $1,000, Park City, through the negotiations of Dick Frost, was able to buy the package that includes hiring of the "shooter" for $600. The location for the July 5th production has not yet been determined. . is putting in a claim for Utah Foundation 0ffin)S While the proportion of Federal spending for defense has declined from 56 percent to 25 percent over the past twenty years, ' Federal , payments to individuals for various income maintenance programs have soaredfrom 19 percent to 44 "percent of total Federal outlays during this same period. These were some of the facts brought out by Utah Foundation, the private tax research organization, in their analysis of the major budget questions facing the nation in 1976. According to a recent report of the Congressional Budget Office, actions that will be taken on the 1977 Federal budget now under consideration con-sideration could either continue or reverse these trends of the past twenty years. The report notes that changes in the size and the character of Federal spending spen-ding during the coming year will be dominated by decisions reached by Congress in five major areas: (1) national security, (2) . unemployment, (3) health, (4) aid to state and local governments, and (5) Federal civilian pay. Foundation analysts point out that the 1977 Federal budget is being prepared for , the first time under the new procedures prescribed by the Congressional Budget Control Act of 1974.- This legislation requires that Congress must look at the budget as a whole instead of the piecemeal fashion that has characterized Federal budget preparation in the past. .'; The Foundation study observes that while the new budget law establishes procedural reforms by which the Federal Budget may be brought under control, it does not insure that Federal ! spending will 1e curbed or that large-scale deficits will be eliminated. If this is. to be . 7 .. fill i Harriet Macgregor Gary West nrtit ,,v I r -i I WW J I W9WI accomplished, there must be "resolve and determination on the part of the people and their elected representatives to establish fiscal restraints in conducting the affairs of government". A proposal which would require that each ap- , propriation request must be ; reconsidered at periodic intervals as though it were an original request was included in the early versions of the Federal Budget .Control bill, but was dropped before its final passage. The idea , -commonly termed zero-based budgeting -- has been renewed in a bill now before Congress, which would require that most major spending programs be reauthorized every four years on a rotating schedule. Advocates of this proposal contend that substantial savings could be realized if agencies periodically had to justify their entire budget request, "presently, agencies usually have to justify only the increases they seek above the level of the previous year. This tends to perpetuate programs and activities that no longer may, be needed or retain programs whose costs clearly exceed their benefits. According to 'the Foundation Foun-dation study, the decisions that . will be reached - by Congress with respect to the budget during the next few months ' will ! have a tremendous impact on the direction that the Nation will jnove in the years ahead.' There decisions will deter-mine deter-mine how , much " of the Nation's resources will be devoted to Federal Activities, as opposed to private or state and local projects. Furthermore, Fur-thermore, they' will encourage en-courage or discourage private activities and investments, in-vestments, affect the rate of inflation, and 'influence employment as well as other factors in the economy. 4& ' l- 11 I I nmim.
