Show PAE SIX PROVO (UTAH) EVENING HERALD, FRIDAY, JANUARY 3 1, 1 9 3 6 SECmON" THREE Postoffice Site For New Building StiU Undecided Money is already set up In the federal treasury for the construction construc-tion of a new $225,000 post office in Provo but lack of site puts Provo in the same position as the fabled gentleman who was "all dressed up and no place to go." A month ago Provoans were divided into two general factions and several tornd session were held but since that time there has been nothing but since on the issue. Postmaster J. W. Dangerfield Thursday said that he expects word soon about the proposed building. In the meetings of a month ago the city commission and others favored trading with Utah county for the northeast coiner of the city and county block. Others opposed it and the county commissioners com-missioners settled that issue by refusing to trade. The trade talk grew out of a communication from Representative Representa-tive J. Will Robinson, who said that the post office department was not satisfied with any of the 14 sites offered and wanted either the northeast corner or they wpuld remodel and enlarge the present building on the northwest corner of the block. It has been unofficially reported re-ported since that time that plans are already drawn for the remodeling re-modeling of the present building. No official confirmation of this rumor has been received, however how-ever and definite word as to the Record Snow Turps; yoIte Gleaming Fairyd III 1, We, too.

Dear Mr. Ellertson: In behalf of our organization let me be first to congratulate Provo and the people of your -entire community on obtaining the new plant of the Utah Power and Light Company. We trust that the acquisition of this plant, which is the greatest contribution to the business structure of the State of Utah that has occurred for many years past, will reflect to the advantage of your immediate community and reflect further to the advantage of the state as a whole, as we are all aware that electric power is the basis of our future development and the production of electric power through the use of our Utah coals is a real contribution to the development of the coal fields of our state in which we are all vitally concerned. Beyond a question of doubt this project will assist all of the local communities in providing facilities which are required in inducing new businesses to come to the state. Of course we are selfishly sorry that the plant could not be constructed con-structed immediately adjacent to our own community, but sound economics directed that it be placed elsewhere and we are happy to know that Provo has been selected as the site. Rest assured at all times if there is anything' possible this organization can do to further the interests of Provo, we are at your service. We trust that this new project will bring hundreds of new residents to your local community, com-munity, the result of which will reflect to the advantage of every resident of Utah. Sincerely yours, W. E. RYBERG President. Copy to Mayor Mark Anderson.
