Show Hampton Raps" ( from page 9) HAMPTON: You mean financial incentives? We are not permitted by our constitution to offer any financial incentives either in the way' of direct drafts of money or loans of money, or in the way of forgiveness of taxes. I - recommended changing this, but they didnt see fit to do so. Now we do have an incentive, in that we have one of the best balanced tax structures in the whole United States. I was told about three years ago by the controller of the United States Steel Company that the Utah tax structure was the most favorable at any state in which United States Steel operates. I would assume that's most of the states. SFN: Let me ask you this question. Would you eventually like to see Wendover Air Force Base have a restricted private traffic by regulated carrier open to private aircraft? To help regulate carriers, like United or Western. RAMPTON: At this time, I cant see that this could come about. There is not enough private traffic there. No perhaps, if the salft flats developed to where we think they may, there might be periodic trips into there. But at the present time the population is not such as to support commercial aviation.

RAMPTON: No, thats a lot of nonsense. It was definitely established that it was Halogeten. Some of the eastern newspapers just want something sensational to print. If its not there they will try to create it. SFN: I suppose my last question would be could you give any inkling about your plans for office at the conclusion of your present term? RAMPTON: No, I havent decided, nor will I make a decision until April of 1972. Queen of Blood ( from page 8) Be not alarmed, Senor, its only your hostess, came the sweet feminine reply.

A point worth mentioning is that the position of Utah in relation to the material being presented was that of an outsider listening to a discussion of himself but still begin an outsider. Lacking were the specifics of r.hat is special about Utah in relation to every move the shuttle project makes. Promotional material consisted of standard NASA shuttle pictures which, if placed in a specific geographic contest with one of the three proposed locations in the Great Salt Lake Desert, could have had a greater impact. In addition, no chronology of what the state has done was presented nor specific detailed information on the three locations the contractors are interested in Sink Valley, Cedar Mountain, and Lucin. This reporter fielded a question on the subject, but it seems information is limited at the present time. In summation, the meeting could be characterized by the answer Vice President Healey of North American Rockwell gave when asked his opinion of the briefing. Utah sure did their homework. Healey also mentioned that he personally hopes Utah gets the spaceport; that is, if the driving time is under forty minutes to Salt Lake City. I loved Colorado, he said, but this sure is out of sight. aftltar BMff SSSs TAH S PICTURE; PAPER THE SALT FLAT NEWS is published twelve times a year by the Salt Flats Publishing Corporation, a Utah Corpora- tion.
