Johnson 161 102 994 874 90 628 688 EDITORIAL Dear News patrons: Thank you for your support of the paper for the past 18 months. We have reached the milestone we have been looking forward to for so long. This week gives us the privilege to make application to the Utah State press Association for membership. They have been good to us and encouraged us to keep moving ahead. The strength of this membership should be very helpful to us. We trust you have received some benefit from our effort to keep the news coming to you over this period of time. With our limited facilities and personel It has been necessary to depend on volunteer news gatherers to bring you the messages each week. We will always appreciate what they have done in the past and trust they will continue to make available to us the local news items that are so very to stay in Also important. business we will need many more subscriptions. Will you help? We are hopeful of Improving, and adding new features that will meet with your approval. Uatham Adamson Congratulations are in order to all those candidates who accepted the public challenge, and had the courage to face the voters of the city in Tuesdays election. Personally each candidate felt he could adequately render a service to the city that could improve our present program. Certainly our sincere congratulations goes to the winners Davis, Oreno, and Adamson. We wish them a successful tenure in office for the next four years and urge the losing candidates and all citizens of the city to give them united support to build confidence and strength in city government. Perhaps a sincere thank you to all those sterl ing citizens who voted for the candidates of their choice is unnecessary. Yet to see Americanism in action, on election day, generates a real sense of pride and greater love of country, to know that in most areas of the country free elections can be conducted without riots, rancor, or discord. The victors should now feel the weight of responsibility placed upon them. They should review the areas where differences of opinion were noted in the campaign and perhaps, where possible incorporate them into the new development program of the future. Thanks be to God for America and Democratic government. Regional Representative Introduced At Granite Park Quarterly Stake Conference Wilburn C.

He said: "The concept expressed by many that you cant join the army or go to college without losing your faith Is false. Too many of our young men and women have proven this to be a false concept.

From news publicity recently County Commissioner Phillip Blomqulst has once again suggested that we dispose of the old county hospital property. A review committee has been appointed to get appraisals for the sale of the property. Once again the people should positively fight any movement that would dispose of any part of the land or buildings at 21st south and state street. This property Is one of the most valuable pieces of real estate owned by Salt Lake County. It should never be sold for private development. The buildings on this corner houses many county and civic offices. To sell It and attempt to pay rent , or build other facilities would cost from three to five times the amount realized from the sale.
