Utah Scores High In Safety Plans SALT LAKE CITY, Sept 27 (UP) Utah led the west in planning plan-ning for safety in 1945, but in practice the state wasn't up to its teaching, according to the national na-tional safety council report on Utah released today. The report states that Utah led the west and was among the top states of the nation in safety planning and education. However, in practice the state fell down. It was fifth in the nation on that score. , However, the program came in for a lot of praise, especially the school education program in traffic traf-fic safety. In this category the state was tops among the 1 1 western states and was in a three-way tie for the No. 1 spot in the nation.

City Advised To Get Unused FPHA Quotas Chief hope for Provo in its current veterans' housing shortage short-age is to obtain, if possible, unused un-used kuotas of federal money al-loted al-loted to other cities under the Lanham act. District Judge W. Stanley Dunford said today after his return from Los Anreles where he studied veterans' hous-j ing as a member of the mayor's housing committee. The appropriation for the act has now been used up. Judge Dunford said, but it is believed many cities applied for more than they will need and it is these unused un-used quotas which Provo should go after. Judge Dunford said his committee and those interested in veterans' housing will take immediate steps to contact Congressman Con-gressman J. Will Robinson and secure his aid in the matter. The housing committee chairman chair-man advised the continuation of the present non-profit corporation formed by local veterans to tackle the housing problem. Detailed cost studies still need to be made locally, he said. Judge Dunford and James Mitchell, chairman of the veter-ans' veter-ans' housing corporation, found that extensive Quonset hut building build-ing in Los Angeles is being paid for by the federal government under the Lanham act, the state of California and the city of Los Angeles. The veteran merely pays rent and has no investment. Cost of these Quonsets should run to a total of about $1,576 per unit, according to figures now available, the judge said. Of this amount, the federal government pays better than a third in bringing bring-ing the buildings to the site, erecting erect-ing them and roughing the plumbing. Balance is put up by the city and state in site, site preparation, installation of utilities utili-ties and in furnishing and landscaping land-scaping the huts. Huts are renting rent-ing for $35 furnished, including heat and utilities, or $29 unfurnished. unfurn-ished. . Building costs are generally believed to be lower here than California, and it is believed the cost could be reduced in other respects, but the exact amount will not be known until more detailed de-tailed cost studies are made here.

Provt) city'a demurrer to Ralph Mercer's suit for reinstatement on the Provo police force was taken under advisement today by District Judge W. Stanley Dun ford, after arguments by opposing oppos-ing attorneys. Judge Dunford said his decision on the demurrer would require some study of the veidence and testimony introduced intro-duced in a previous case in which Mercer, George Erkman and Arnold Arn-old Steere jointly brought .suit for reinstatement. City Attorney Dallas H. Young contended that Mercer's case had been disposed of when it was dismissed dis-missed from the other action. Attorney At-torney Dan B. Shields, acting for Mercer, contended that Mercer had been wrongfully withheld from the force after a man with less seniority than his client was kept on the force and remains there today, in addition to the fact that two more policemen have been hired since then.
