Admiral Conder, a native Utahn, received her schooling in Tooele. As a senior at Tooele High Schol, she started working part time for a doctor who advised her to choose nursing as a career. She did just that, graduating from the University of Utah and St. Marks Hospital. She earned a Master's degree at the University of Seattle after joining the Navy and received her first commission in 1951. She has served in many parts of the world and directed Navy recruiting activities in a four state area in the Admiral. She has received the University of Utah's Distinguished Alum-nus award. In 1978 she spend 18 days touring health care facilities in the Peoples' Republic of China. While there she noted that a hospital patient had to pay 50 cents a day, $1 for a small operation, and about $15 for a major operation. However, hospital facilities are not heated , do not maintain sanitation levels as we are used to, and privacy is very limited. She stated that their stan-dards differ from our, but they have made great strides since 1949. One thing that she noticed was the young children dressed in bright, attractive colors. She had praise for the well disciplined Chinese children.

Lindon Hears from Painter Among the questions asked at the Lindon School of a a visitor last week were: "Why do you wear that funny mask?" "Do you make more money painting a large house than a small house?" "Is there anything dangerous about your job?" Second graders asked Calvin Kieffer, father of Tiffany, who invited him there to describe his occupation to the class many more questions. He also demonstrated his equipment in connec-tion with a unit on community helpers being studied in social studies. Many of the students have invited parents to share their occupations and so far there has been a great response. The class has learned about manufacturing, insurance, custodial services, selling medical supplies, and other community ser-vices. Students and teachers agree that this is a really terrific way of learning about how a community ticks!

Hatch CARTER DOUBLE-TALK- S BUDGET CUTS Inflation is roaring along like a three alarm fire and President Carter seems hardpressed to find even a teacupful of water to throw at it. Despite his austerity claims, the President's proposed federal budget is going to heat that fire much hotter. The Carter proposal includes total federal spending for the next year of $531.6 billion, with a projected deficit of $29 billion. If the Carter budget is adopted in its present form by the Congress, it will mean that for the 19th of the last 20 years Uncle Sam will spend billions more dollars than he receives in taxes. Americans pay for those deficit years every day at the checkstand in the form of hiaher prices. Lean And Austere? "Lean and austere" is the term the President uses to describe his new budget. "More of the same old bad habits" would be a far more accurate description because the Carter budget for next year is only $4.5 billion lower, in terms of current services already being paid for with tax dollars at the federal level, than last year's outlay. In a budget that exceeds half a trillion dollars, $4.5 billion is small change indeed. More important, the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) admitted last year that it lost more than $7 billion to waste, fraud and mismanagement. If just one federal department is losing $7 billion a year, surely the President can find more than $4.5 billion worth of cuts somewhere in the whole federal budget. While claiming that he is imposing strict new spending discipline on the federal bureaucracy, the President is seekng a 10 increase in spending for the same HEW that frittered away those billions last year! The Department of Housing and Urban Development will get an 18 spending increase under the Carter proposal. Foreign aid, that longtime champion of misguided spending by Washington's bureaucrats, is similarly fattened by the White House budgeters. As if it is not enough to play a numbers game with spending cuts, the President also chose not to tell all the facts about the actual size of the federal deficit under his new budget proposal. Mr. Carter claims that the deficit will not exceed $29 billion. What he fails to admit, though, is that with the added $12 billion "off budget" deficit spending on programs not subject to the normal congressional budgeting procedure the true deficit for 1979 will be at least $41 tpioi ', Another Budget Buster With yet another budget-bustin- g deficit to its credit, the President's once-highl- y touted Zero-Base- d Budgeting now promises Zero Progress Against Inflation. More inflation means higher prices and higher taxes. Based on the current inflation rate, federal tax collections will go up 13.4 this year, 10.3 next year and 14.5 in 1981. If the President and the liberal leadership of the Congress again refuse to pass the Roth-Kem- p 30 across-the-boar- d tax cut, there will be only one place the federal budget can be balanced and that is on the backs of productive taxpayers. believe it is time for Washington's politicians to stop the numbers games and to get on with the serious business of ending inflation by controlling the federal budget. If the figures in the budget column continue to come out wrong, the politicians just may find the figures in the vote columns coming out differently in the next election!

PASSED AND AP-PROVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF PLEAS-ANT GROVE, UTAH, this 6th day of February, 1979. W. CORNELL HAYNIE, Mayor ATTEST: Mark Johnson City Recorder (SEAL( SHOW WRONG WAY Sharon Blatter, Chuck Nielson, Melissa Crosby, Jason Davis, Shawna Fillmore, Brett Richins, and Jody Fillmore, holding sign show how to do it wrong at Lindon Elementary. Lindon Shows Safety Rules Lindon Elementary Student Council pan-tomimed six safety rules for the students in Lindon Elementary. This was done in con-junction with Safety month. The six rules pan-tomimed were: class safety, bus safety, wear white at night, bicycle safety, snow safety and line safety (see picture above). The council acted out the right and the wrong way in each case. In the skit above they displayed the wrong way to line up for drinks at the drinking fountain. It seems that the wrong way in each case makes a better pic-ture because of the ac-tion and variety depic-ted. Children quite readily can see what shouldn't be hap-pening.
