Bennett, of this important legislation, he themthing on. If its on wheels, they this week said that the said. are hooked. Wheels are where One Bank Holding Company at the fascination of design its Bill, which was reported by a and performance, the thrill of R-Ut- ah, t conference committee and has already been approved by the House, is a good bill." He has urged Senate approval of the measure. Sen. Bennett, an original sponsor the Senate version of the bill, also clarified for the record provisions agreed on in the conference which he said were misinterpreted in the House Managers' Statement. The Senate should be very pleased with the bill agreed on by the Conference Committee The conferees who were appointed to represent the Senate position against the restrictive bill of the House were able to come with a conference reuort ' very close to the Senate bill. The resulting bill retains the maximum flexibility for the Federal Reserve Board to determine the activities in which a bank holding company and its sub sidaries may engage but at the same time protects those bank related industries with which banks are allowed to compete from unfair competiion by the banks. It also provides for a means through which the views of prospective bank related competitors may be fully represent ed before the Federal Reserve Board in proceedings to determine activities which are appro- priate. The Utah lawmaker explained the House bill prohibited a great many bank related activities in which banks had been participating for years, but the version we approved today allows maximum flexibility for banks to compete in financially related activities. However, it also prohibits improper practices alleged by bank competitors. Sen. Bennett also praised the work of staff members charged with responsibility for the bank holding legislation. The work of these individuals, along with that of the Senate conferees who did not succumb to the questionable tactics used by some House conferees, made it possible for us to report back to the Senate with an equitable bill accomplishing generally what we set out to do.

That was the comment of Dr. harles R. Smart, president of the Utah Division of the American Cancer Society about the article, Theyre Gaining on Leukemia by Walter S. Ross, appearing in Ihe Readers Digest. Twenty five years ago diag- nosis of acute leukemia was a sentence of death. Children lived 'nly a few weeks at most. To-lay of those receiving the latest n drug treatment, 90 per cent :o into symptom free remission, ind sometimes this lasts for several years. With a number of icute leukemia patients now symptom free for over five years he doctors are beginning to use he word cure. It is too early to tell, however, whether these patients will live out a normal life span. House Approves Bill On .22 Ammunition Legislation removing recordkeeping requirements of .22 caliber ammunition from the 1968 Sun Control Act was approved by the House Monday, accord-n- g to Rep. Sherman P. Lloyd, of the measure. a The Utah Republican said the legislation eliminates the last existing requirement under the law for ammunition used primarily for sporting purposes. Under this bill, retailers will no longer be required to record the name, address or other information about the purchaser :f any sporting type ammunition, he said. This will relive both sportsmen and dealers from unnecessary bureaucratic red tape and the unreasonable burden created by the 1968 law, he said. Rep. Lloyd, who voted against the original gun control law, said the provisions on ammunition had in no way contributed to crime control, but merely had served to harass both sportsmen and sporting good dealers. co-spon- sor SEW YOURSELF What woman doesn't want something special for her holiday wardrobe?

Transportation Office Publishes Guidelines New taxiway system design standards to speed ground movements of larger aircraft such as the DC-1- 0 and the and thereby increase the capacity of airports have been published by the Federal Aviation Adinmistration of the Department of Transportation. The new standards are based on the size of the aircraft using an airport rather than on runway length as is presently the case. Taxiway width and clearances would vary according to the aircraft using a particular airport. To simplify design process, B-74- L-1- 01 7, Secret desires, like the times, have changed. It used to be that everyone had a hidden yen to lead a band. But nowadays it seems that everyone wants to write a perfume ad. It all began around Mothers Day when the Lanvin people, who sell Arpege, decided to go off on a whimsical tangent from their famous Promise her anything, but give her Arpege slo gan by listing actual suggested promises in their ads for the sweet smelling stuff. The 100 proposed promises were helpfully arranged in categories: husbands to their wives promise to get to love the chair you had recovered at a great expense), children to their mothers, promise to tell you what they tell me in sex educa tion class) teenagers to their mothers promise to get uj noon on by Sunday) and others The Promise ad was an instant success. From everywhere, praises and suggestions for new promises came rushing in and Arpege products went rushing out of the stores. Delighted at the response made plans for the Christmas season and other gifl occasions and the company sent promise suggestions that particularly tickled the corporate fancy.

It is unfortunate, and often tragic, that the upsurge in traf-ficduring the holiday season so aften coincides with our worst weather. Worse yet, most winter iriving accidents are needless they could be avoided by taking a few simple, commonsense precautions. Getting your car ready for win-'e- r weather is the first step, he pointed out. Half the battle is won when your car is in first class mechanical condition, particularly those items that affect traction and vision, such as the tires, brakes, lights, defroster or windshield wipers. s, For driving on slippery a tires with good good tread are a must. Snow tires are helpful for pulling through snow and studded snow tires are still better for added traction on icy pavement. For severe snow and Ice, however, reinforced chains are far more effective. Carry them in your trunk and be prepared to use them in deep snow and glare ice, he advised. To combat the other hazards associated with winter weather poor visibility he urged drivers to clear snow and ice from all windows, not only the windshield but the side and rear windows a3 well. Good visibility to the side and rear is also essential in todays heavy traffic. Check your defroster to be sure it is functioning properly and replace wiper blades if they are streaking or smearing. Be sure your windshield washers have an adequate supply of anti-freee pave-metn- ze HOW NOT TO BE A GALLEY SLAVE No one is more appreciated on a pleasure craft than the gal and cooking with galley-saw- y know-hoBut, how much do you really know about your kitchen afloat and what should go in it?
