Two of the remainder the United are memorializing States congress, one to establish office of federal bureaus having to do with western matters in the west, preferably Salt Lake City, and the other favoring a national constitution amendment permitting congress to regulate working hours. Six of the new laws were sought by organized labor. Four affect agriculture and three county affairs. The others are varied in nature and effect. None can b said to be included among the measures generally regarded as of These, 'statewide importance.

Many who attend the Prom will perhaps see for the first time, the new curtain, cyclorama set, the new stage lighting and other improvements which have been installed in the building during the year. Principal Bond and his faculty and students are to be complimented on the fine progress they have made this year in this line. Through the management of Mr. Bond, supplemented by many hours of hard work on the part of Mr. Rollins and his shop classes these necessary finishing touches have been added through the year. Curtains, cyclorama sets, automatic clock and bell system, etc. have been paid for half by the school board and half by the high school, and Mr. Bond is to be complimented for having the school portion paid up in full. On such improvements as basketball bask ets, stage lighting, etc. the board has furnished ma terial and the labor has been furnished by the faculty and students. Altogether it denotes a fine spirit of coopera tion on the part of the faculty and students, which has been carried on in similar fashion in the various schools throiurhout the district. A NEW VENTURE BEING LAUNCHED A new enterprise for the Uintah Basin has recently been started by citizens of Roosevelt, Vernal Fort Duchesne and Whiterocks, with headquarters n at Roosevelt. The Corporators, all citizens of the basin believe they have hit upon a plan which will be well received by basin citizens, and one which will eventually mean much to those who join with well-know- them. Their plan, briefly, is the formation'of a company to handle and sell gasoline and associated products, the company to be owned and controlled by basin citizens, each limited to a small" block of stock Since the profits of the operations of the company will revert in large part to stockholders, they would in effect be buying gasoline at cost whenever they buy it at a local station, with the additional chance at profit from the sale of gas to tourists and On this idea the corporators believe they are assured of a large business, and believe that through it they will assist in returning many dollars to the pockets of basin citizens which are now going to the large oil concerns. We believe the boys have a good idea. Their sue cess in selling this idea to thd general public and Sn organizing and promoting the business of the company will determine their returns for the time and money they have spent on it. We hope they succeed, for one of the largest drawbacks to the basin today is the constant flow of basin money to and concerns. WIIAT IS BEING DONE ON BLUE BENCH? On October 9, 1936 we published information to the effect that a survey was to be made on the Blue bench, to determine the feasibility of another irrigation project to reclaim this most valuable tract of land. The survey was to be conducted by the bureau of reclamation, and was sponsored by the Utah Water storage commission and the Knight Investment Co., title holders of much of the land on the Blue non-membe- rs. Utah. Together with all and singular the tenements, hereditaments, and appurtenances thereunto belonging or in any wise appertaining, and the reversion and reversions, remainder and remainders, rents, issues and profits thereof.
