The president, how ever, was-made the beneficiary of legislation increasing his salary, part of which was made exempt from taxation in spite of opposition opposi-tion by Sen.

He warned that the country is facing certain disaster if the trend isn't checked in the near future. He discounted the oft-heard argument that Utah is a great beneficiary from .the many fed eral aid. grants, pointing out that while Utah taxpayers send over $90,000,000 to Washington the state receives less than $35,000,- 00 back annually. the commiUeroV Warner Murphy, chairman of tions, was chairman of the meeting. meet-ing.
