State spending to increase State expenditures for current cur-rent operations in Utah will increase in-crease by $17.9 million next year with the spending programs pro-grams approved by the recently adjourned , 1970 Legislature. This fact was pointed out in a fiscal analysis of the 1970 budget session prepared by Utah Foundation, the private research organization. According to the study, the expected expenditure increase for 1970-71 will be somewhat less than the $25.9 million in new spending for 1969-70 which was authorized by the 1969 Legislature. All of the difference differ-ence is reflected in the more modest increase in school aid approved this year. Altogether, $11.6 million or nearly two-thirds of the added funds that will be expended next year will go for education (higher education, local school aid, and other education). The report indicates that social services (health, welfare, corrections, cor-rections, institutions, etc.) account ac-count for $3.7 million of the new spending for next year, with all other state activities being responsible for the remaining re-maining $2.6 million of the increase. in-crease.

Complete Com-plete details of clinic locations, Plastic bags now being used for garbage disposal The convenience and sanitation sanita-tion of plastic bags for garbage disposal is proving to be a far superior method and less expensive ex-pensive than the garbage can set out method, according to city officials. Persons using plastic bags state that by using these bags in their garbage cans, their cans are always clean and sanitary, sani-tary, they merely lift the bags out of the cans, tie the tops and set the bags out for the garbage crews to pick up. This eliminates the necessity of carrying cans back and forth from the house to the street, prevents damage to cans and lids, prevents corrosion of cans, prevents loss of cans during wind storms, prevents dogs from tipping cans over and scattering garbage and numerous num-erous other advantages both for the property owners and the city. For the convenience of those persons who desire to try the plastic bag method of garbage disposal, there are bags available avail-able at the city recorders office that may be purchased at city cost. Persons using an average of three bags per week will use approximately 156 bags per year at n cost of five cents per bag, this will be a cost of approximately $7.80 per year. The use of these plastic bags as garbage can liners will prolong pro-long the life of a garbage can indefinitely and is wholeheartedly wholeheart-edly endorsed by those using them, officials report.

Within the next few weeks, company officals said, Coors will have literature, heavy-duty collection bags and other aids available for civic clubs which plan aluminum salvage campaigns cam-paigns in their communities.
