Included in this total are allocations totaling $2,601,522 for the 1972 calendar year plus $1,570,311 for the first half of 1973. These facts were brought out by Utah Foundation, the private research organization in a comprehensive analysis of Federal revenue sharing and grant-in-aid programs. The Foundation report shows that the Utah County Government Govern-ment has received allocations totaling $1,403,825. Federal revenue sharing distributions to the city of Provo have amounted to $1,284,163 for the eighteen-month eighteen-month period. - Total Federal revenue sharing allocations to all local units in Utah County for the 1972 calendar year were equal to visit the show and meet Mr. Collins at that time.

Mr. Collins paintings have been described as being enjoyed by everyone. People seem to relate easily to his landscapes through the earthy colors, design, and texture. Asked for a statement of his philosophy, he said, "It pleases me most to paint from nature, but mainly from my memory of nature. Me creative process is more thoroughly stimulated and my work becomes a child of my . imagination rather than a copy of photographic reproduction. An art is an abstraction of nature."

If these funds were raised from a local tax, an increase of 13.89 mills ($13.89 per $1,000 assessed valuation) would have been required in the overall levy within the county. In the case of the Utah County Government only, the 1972 Federal revenue sharing allocation was equal to $6.33 per capita, and the property tax equivalent was equal to 4.65 mills. Revenue sharing funds to Provo for 1972 were equal to $15.09 per capita. It would have required an increase of $15.89 mills in the Provo municapal levy to raise an equivalent amount of revenue. The Federal revenue sharing program was enacted last year by Congress, which appropriated ap-propriated more than $30 billion in Federal funds to state and local units across the nation over a five-year period.

In accordance with the stipulations of the document, the nation over a five-year period. One-third of the funds allocated to each state is distributed to the state government with the remaining two-thirds going to local units. Foundation analysts observe that there is apparently concern among state and local officials across the nation that the revenue sharing program may not be continued. They point out that many state and local units have allocated their revenue sharing funds for capital outlay and other nonrecurring expenditure ex-penditure items. The Foundation points out that the general Federal revenue sharing program passed by Congress last year was only part of a comprehensive administration ad-ministration proposal to overhaul the entire Federal grant structure. In addition to general revenue sharing, the administration plan would have A IlJ AM? T I m ii r i lost f Road Commission has agreed to fallow the city the use of the property involved for beautification work. As its share of the effort, the state will now fill and grade the area with suitable topsoil, place an acceptable ac-ceptable barrier around the border of the property, and pay for the cost of materials to provide an adequate sprinkler system and the cost also of "appropriate flora". In return, as its share of the enterprise, Springville City has agreed to install the sprinkler system, furnish the necessary water, plant the flora, and Congress consolidate many of the narrow-purpose categorical Federal grant programs into a limited number of broad-purpose broad-purpose categorical Federal grant programs into a limited number of broad-purpose categorical Federal grant programs into a limited number of broad-purpose special revenue sharing programs. Thus far, however, Congress has balked at adopting any of the special revenue sharing proposals. During recent years, increased in-creased criticism has been leveled at the growing complexity com-plexity of the Federal grant systems. The Foundation notes that the latest tabulation lists 1,051 separate Federal grant programs in operation across the nation. Ten years ago, there were approximately 300 Federal grant programs. Cost of Federal aid to state and local governments govern-ments in the United States has risen from $3.1 billion in 1954-55 to an estimated $45 billion in the 1972-73 fiscal year. More than $220 million in Federal grants were distributed to state and local units in Utah during the 1971-72 fiscal year. Utah received 0.61 percent of all Federal grant distributions made to all state and local units in the nation last year. On the other hand, the Foundation estimates that residents of Utah pay about 0.41 percent of all Federal taxes. Although it may appear that Utah realizes a "profit" from the present Federal grant system, the report stresses that these comparisons do not include in-clude the costs of Federal and state overhead and supervision. Moreover, the present system also fails to consider whether or not the grants are expended for the best possible use within the state. Among the reasons for the apparent larger-than-average Federal grant distributions to Utah are that some of the allocation formulas recognize the large land area and the high proportion of Federally-owned land, the relatively low financial proval by Springville City and the Utah State Road Commission. Papers have been signed by representatives of both sides and work is slated to start scon. "properly water, weed, and generally maintain" the area involved in a condition suitable to both parties to the agreement. 'Record Shack' sets opening sale One of Springville's newest businesses, Frank's Record Shack, 297 South Main, will be holding its grand opening soon. Dates announced are Thursday, August 30th, to the following Tuesday, September 11th. Manager and proprietor of the unique new extablishment is in county resources, and the large number of children to be educated in the state. Even so, when Federal aid for the public schools is compared com-pared on a per student basis, the amount to Utah is 12 percent below the U.S. average.
