Wilderness plan would increase consumer costs, farm leader says A Utah farmer leader today criticized the Carter Administration plan to designate another 15 million acres of America as "wilderness area." Approximately a half million acres in Utah is included in the plan. Frank 0. Nishiguchi, president of the Utah Farm Bureau Federation, said the proposal would lock up vital renewable resources which are much needed by the nation's growing population. "Nearly a billion board feet of harvestable timber will be withdrawn from use under the Administration Ad-ministration proposal. According to the Salt Lake Homebuilders Association, that lumber would build about 50,000 moderately-sized homes, or about four to five years' home construction for the greater Salt Lake Valley area," the Farm Bureau president said. He added that this government action will certainly have an impact upon the price of homes. "And we're talking here about renewable resources. Harvested timber provides the best environment for new timber growth under timber management plans," he said. Food prices will also be impacted, Nishiguchi said. "Limited grazing will be allowed under the wilderness proposal, but regulations would prohibit using vehicles to repair fences, care for sick animals, repair water facilities or fight fires.In other words, it's back to the 19th century," he said. Non-renewable energy resources such as gas and oil will be locked up in the 15 million acres proposed for wilderness. Nishiguchi said the nation can ill afford such a lockup that includes "throwing away the key." He said careful exploration ex-ploration procedures should be followed to minimize damage to the environment but he urged continued exploration for energy resources to put an end to America being held hostage by the oil cartel. "The time has come for consumers who face higher food costs, higher housing and energy costs, and other inflation to recognize the relationship between government regulations and higher prices at the cash register.

United States dependence unnecessary? The Recent Crisis in Iran reminds us all of how dependent we are on oil imports. The secretary of engery, Mr. Schlesinger, in his news conference of January 3, said that the United States could save up to 600,000 barrels of oil a day if everyone observed ob-served the 55 mph speed limit, and if people would just avoid all unnecessary driving! ! ! The Utah Highway Safety Office encourages everyone to adhere to secretary Schlesinger's advice. In 1974, when America was involved in the Opec Embargo, gasoline consumption was drastically reduced as motorists observed the new speed limit law! "We're faced with a similar crisis now," says public safety commissioner com-missioner Larry E. Lunnen, "But we can once again realize the benefits of the law if Utahns will join in the National effort and drive 55 mph." He that hath lost his credit is dead to the world.
