In discussing the revenue for Nebo District, it is easy to understand, un-derstand, if we realize, that there are three types of sources: revenue from local sources, state sources and federal sources. In addition to these three broad categories of sources, there are many earmarked ear-marked sources within each general area. Excluding school lunch, tort liability funds, recreation funds and capital outlay funds, the local revenue accounts for approximately 18 percent of the maintenance and operation budget, state sources ( 75 percent and federal sources 7 percent. It is interesting to note that of the maintenance and operation budget, local property taxes account for 17.7 percent of the budget. This is due to the low assessed valuation in relation to the number of students we have in Nebo. District. We have 10,109 students in Nebo District and our current budget is based on an assessed valuation of $43,325,000. This gives us an assessed valuation of $4,286 per student, or in terms of dollars it means that we collect approximately $118.30 of local tax funds for maintaining and operating the schools per child. Our estimated total revenue for this year is $6,710,000 or $663.76 per student. A major portion of the state sources, $4,087,000, is equalization money. In other words, the State Legislature has determined that it takes a certain level of expenditures for education. The amount of money not raised by local taxes is supplemented from state sources. In the final analysis, what this really means is that Nebo is a relatively poor school district in terms of the local tax sources and that we rely heavily on state sources to provide the educational program. Next week I will discuss the specific sources of funding in the broad categories. We do have the capital outlay, recreation, tort We have a lot to give . . . fltfir(t; yiry (Hi (farost!9 First Security Bank (DM per annum 5 per annum 3 month 1 year 2 year Savings Certificates Savings Certificates Savings Certificates Certificates of $500 or more in multiples of $100 for individuals.

This must be kept , separate from the maintenance and operation fund. It is estimated that this year we will collect $764,000. We will get a little additional money from the sale of property which is considered con-sidered local sources. We expect to get $271,000 from the State of Utah and $17,000 from federal sources. In the area of school lunch, the total revenue is expected ex-pected to be $717,000, of which $429,000 is local sources, $80,000 state sources, $141,000 federal sources, the balance being the cash on hand at the end of last year. In the tort liability fund, which is a small fund created by the Legislature to cover the tort liability insurance for the district, Nebo levies .35 hun-dreths hun-dreths of a mill and the expected revenue is $14,800 from that source. The recreation fund is also a legislative approved source of funds for recreation purposes only. Nebo levies .75 hundreths of a mill and the expected revenue in that area is $31,700 for the school year. The total expected revenue for the 72-73 school year is $8,979,630. This figure does include carryover revenue in capital outlay, school lunch, recreation and rort liability. Next week we will discuss the specific sources of revenue in the major local 1 state and federal categories.- Aliens' address reporting is - now underway John L,. Todd, District Director of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, advised today that the annual Alien Address Report Program is again under way. According to Mr. Todd, over 26,400 aliens reported their addresses last year in the states of Colorado and Wyoming. The Immigration official pointed out that the address reports are required by law and willful failure to comply with these requirements may lead to serious consequences. Mr. Todd also advised that the issuance of a Social Security account card to an alien is not evidence of permission from the Immigration and Naturalization Service for the alien to work in the United States. Only those aliens lawfully admitted to the United States for permanent residence (Immigrants) and those aliens temporarily in the United States (nonimmigrants) who have been authorized by the Service to take employment may work in this country. Aliens working in the United States in violation of law may be subject to certain penalties. Forms with which to make the reports are available at all Post Offices and Immigration and Naturalization Service Offices., It is an easy matter to fill out one of the cards and return or mail it. Mr. Todd added that trained personnel will be on hand in all offices of the Immigration and Naturalization Service to answer an-swer any questions the reporting aliens may have regarding immigration and naturalization matters. Sufficient trained personnel are not available to furnish this assistance in all Post Offices. his talk stories of many humorous happenings in and around the yards during the time he has held the position of yardmaster.

Many Utah taxpayers can save time and effort by using the short tax form to file their federal income tax returns for 1972, Roland V. Wise, District Director of Internal Revenue for Utah said today. The vast majority of taxpayers tax-payers who take the standard deduction can use the new Form 1040A no matter how much income in-come they have if it is from wages, saleries and tips; and not more than $200 in interest income in-come or $200 in dividends. The new 1040A is a half-sheet form with simplified instructions in-structions which can be used by approximately 32 million taxpayers tax-payers nationwide. With the information in the instructions and the relatively few computations com-putations that have to be made, most taxpayers can prepare their own 1040A return instead of hiring someone else to do it. .While 1040A users may not itemize deductions, they can still claim the limited tax credit for making political contributions. Taxpayers filing Form 1040A can also allocate one dollar of their tax money, two dollars on a . joint return, to the Presidential Election Campaign Fund, Mr. Wise said.
