In order to help our readers become better acquainted with these issues last week we published pros and cons of Propositions No. 1, 2, 3, and 4. This week contentions from both sides on Propositions 5, 6, 7, and 8 will be discussed.

Everyone Is Invited and most welcome. $4.00 of $500 per year and $5 per day expenses during actual sessions work a financial hardship on lawmakers and prevent many qualified persons from serving. They argue also that legislators must spend more time now to adequately represent the public and they should receive more remuneration. It is argued that thie present restrictions may lead to candidacy of only the rich, the retired and the subsidized. CON: The major opposing ar- gument is that the amendment would remove constitutional limits on salaries and expenses, them to be fixed by law on m open-enbasis which might be abused. Another fear is that of the professional legislator at some future date, or that the lawmakers might decide to vote hemselves periodic raises. Proposition No. 8 Shall Section 13 of Article II of the Constitution of the State of Utah be amended to abolish the Board of Examiners, which is comprised of the Gov- emor, the Secretary of State and) .he Attorney General? This al-.o- d -- joard now has the duty to examine all claims against the state of Utah and to perform other duties as are prescribed by law. PRO: Critics of the Board of Examiners claim It represents 'government b y committee. fhey contend that the governor .s held responsible for administration of the executive branch and he should have authority to rather than share .dminister, hat power with two other men ho could outvote him. CON: Those who favor reten-loof the board claim that It represents a needed check and xdance on the operations of government in permitting a redew of administrative and legislative actions. They also contend the public meetings of the board help to bring operations of state government more into the open for the public to see.

This will help tourism in Kane County. In time this road will extend to Roads to the Four Corners area are also under serious consideration. of the Taft HartSection 14-ley Law should be repealed, Mr. Moss said. He went into legalisms to support this contention. Since labor unions are of an interstate nature, the control and regulation of them should be left to the federal government without any restrictions from the state. In this way there would be uniform regulation throughout the country, he said. The final point that was was the monopoly of concessioners at National Parks and fecieation areas. It was felt that competition would improve the 'oi vices available and most probably reduce the cost. Mr. Moss said he would take a close look at this and if legislation is need-he will introduced it B dis-uss- d d Already if one listens very the sound of basketball an be heard at good old KHS.

It is very gratifying to see such enthusiasm over politics in Kane County it hasnt always been like that. We hope this show of interest will continue to grow. But there are a couple of reasons why 83 isnt good enough for us. First, Kanab (and by reflection Hane County) has had some awfully bad publicity since the first of the year. Apathy on the part of the people is charged as one reason fur wi'.l gain allowing this to come about. A high voter turn-otiie attention of others throughout the state (especially if soma one points this out graphically to the news media) and prove that we really do care. Secondly, industry watches the interest of citizens. If people are apathetic in an area, industry isnt too inclined to locate there. To broaden the tax base and lower our tax rates, we need new revenue and new payrolls we need new industries. One of the means of getting that is in our hands this November 8.
