being considered under an amendment to the river and harbor bill as a It is hoped navigation project to substitute the word navigation for flood controL Discussion urging the army engineers to push investigation on the project was led by Salt Lake County Commissioner Roscoe Bo-dMayor Earl J Glade and Thomas C Adams professional engineer and commodore of the Great Salt Lake Yacht club Great Salt lake is a navigational resource of large magnitude and as such offers unusual opportunity for a coordinated development consisting primarily of a harbor and related boating facilities but embracing other features which exist in the Garfield bench area Mr Adams said Physical features making this opportunity do not appear to exist elsewhere he said Few Harbors “In the past a number of boats notable for their size have used tha lake Several have been more than 100 feet in length and one was 200 feet long But the lake has few natural landings or harbors none accessible to the settled areas east and southeast of the lake and the expense of building a suitable harbor has been too great for local financing Mr Adams said Commissioner Boden said Salt Lake county hoped the project might be considered favorable as a postwar project to provide a suitable work project should a “slack” period develop Opposing the project were A H Nebeker attorney representing the American Smelting and Refining Co Ira Dem representing Sunset Beach and John Lomis representing Blackrock Beach Property Valuable Most of the property to be Included in the project is owned by the American Smelting and Refining Co and Is valuable to the company for its silic sand Mr Nebeker said Serious problems also would result in creation of a public park adjacent to such a large industrial plant he said Both Mr Dem and Mr Lomis voiced objections to the project as an encroachment to their private businesses which they said represented considerable expenditures of money and effort The project as now proposed by the Salt Lake county planning department includes construction of a fresh water lagoon formed by construction of a dike about on the present shore line extending from the present pier west to Fritch island The lagoon would be used for washing and storage of boats and also would provide a bathing pool Plans include construction of a boat lock which would lead from the protected harbor into the fresh water lagoon en Slates Fund Campaign Advance preparation for the Community Chest’s annual fundraising campaign will be drafted by the executive committee of the Salt Lake county Chest

Trevithick public relations director state centennial commission Wednesday urged speedy action organizing additional county and regional committees “Schools and churches can do much this winter to assist in man ufacture of pioneer costumes and arranging dramatics and other organization and leadership must be provided in order to direct this” Regional Committees There are approximately 12 county and regional committees now functioning he said leaving about half the state unorganized and unprepared for full participation in the centennial Boards of county commissioners have been urged and are urged now by D4vid O McKay state centennial commission chairman Gus P Backman director and Mrs Trevithick to appoint suit able committees “If we are to produce successful parades and accurate pageantry if we are to engage in some of the games and contests common to the different genera tions of our ancestry we must pay the price by long and careful prep aration” Mr Trevithick said Immediate Program “Our suggestion and our earnest hope is that you get immediately and vigorously underway a pro gram to compile as complete a list of those events both current and historical which you feel might be used to make up a program proper to climax and to tell the From this story of 100 years total list of the old and the new a selection of representative and varied events could then be jnade into a tentative program” The local programs as revised and perfected should reflect local Choice local background local imagination and local talent all obcorrelated into a state-wid- e servance Mr Trevithick contin Although frost damaged many orchards and reduced fruit supply far below normal crop prospects in Utah generally are above average Frank G Shelley executive secretary Utah State Farm Bureau federation reported Tuesday In many areas of the state said Mr Shelley fruit was killed by frost but enough remained to make a good crop without much thinning Quality of fruit throughout the state he declared is excellent Despite unfavorable weather conditions sugar beets he said are doing well Although stands of beets are somewhat spotted they now look better than earlier in the season The wet spring followed by drying winds caused difficulty in getting young plants through the ground the official explained Indicates Heavy Yield With both dry and irrigated farms indicating heavy yields the grain crop situation he declared is good Harvests now are under way on dry farms where late rains insured good production except in the southwestern part of the state where extreme drouth has resulted in almost total failure in some fields Potato production in Utah and throughout the nation he forecast will be very high this year Dairy and livestock production is Recent large well above normal marketings fif’ livestock by farmers said Mr Shelley is evidence that stockmen do not intend to hold for unreasonable prices Pregnts Inflation Abundanterops now being produced by agriculture believes Mr Shelley will prevent any wild inflationary spiral of food prices Farmers he said expect only reasonable prices which are in line with increased cost of production Even though O P A is discontinued permanently he foresees stabilized prices unless "profiteers and spec" ulators get control of the food sup- plies” Much concern he said has been expressed 'since O P A controls ended and subsidies discontinued as to what might happen to food Prices to producers he prices said have advanced only enough to offset subsidies In effect he explained this costs the public all less than during the time prices were governed by O P A regulations Market prices he explained are higher perhaps “but the difference has been paid through income n taxes” & Granger Flies To

Distant and forgotten days of the wild west when Indians roamed through Utah mountains and valleys suddenly would have come alive again Wednesday night for an observer glancing into the back yard of John S Boyden Salt Lake attorney 1449 Uintah circle Were the observer of an imaginative nature—forgetful of time and place—he might have been tempted to clutch more tightly to his scalp for in the otherwise quiet back yard were camped a dozen Navajo Indians including a medicine man — all in full tribal regalia Actually the Navajos were stopping to see an old friend as they passed through Salt Lake City en route from their reservation in New Mexico to Pocatello Ida where they will perform tribal dances at the Pocatello rodeo and Indian ceremonial Friday through Sunday Mr Boyden former assistant United States attorney handled government cases for Indians for many years and long has been a collector of Indian items The Indians telephoned Mr Boyden Wednesday when they arrived in the
