Recently, though, the cities, including Mapleton and Springville, have refused to sign agreements which would continue this unfair subsidization. Springville and Mapleton are currently negotiating with the county to work out an agreement in which they can be paid on the basis of the number of fires they fight, rather than a flat sum which the county agrees to give them. The county has argued that paying Springville on the basis of fires they have fought rather than a flat sum would provide an "open-ended agreement" which Springville could abuse to get funds it does not need. This argument seems shallow, however, Careful records kept by the city fire department could easily substantiate the cost of fires fought by the city. The city is legally responsible for providing its citizens with fire protection. If the money it budgets for fire protection is insufficient, it must open up the budget and come up with the money to make up the difference. The county, according to state law, is responsible for fire protection of county residents outside city limits. County residents pay taxes for this protection. If the county contracts with Springville to provide that protection, it should be prepared and willing to pay for that protection. If county funds are insufficient, the county should be prepared to open up its budget and find some way to raise the extra money. Springville or any other city should not have to come up with that extra money for providing the county with a service they are not legally required to provide.

QUESTION: Pres-identail Pres-identail candidate Edward Ed-ward Kennedy recently became the first public figure in America to criticize at length the President's foreign policy in Iran. Do you think his comments were appropriate ap-propriate at this time? HATCH: No I don't. I think his comments were very inappropriate. I think that Ted was trying to make some political hay, was doing it under terms where he thought he wouldn't be reported but when he was, then accentuated it. I think it's unfortunate that type of, I think, almost irresponsible talk is dangerous to our hostages who are over there and dangerous to the efforts that are being made. I just went through another two-hour briefing with the secretary of state, Cyrus Vance, and I can tell you they are doing everything they know how to do. They have all kinds of contingency plans, and I can tell you that they are mobilizing other nations. The U.N. Security Council has come down with a resolution that isn't to my liking, but nevertheless calls for the release of the hostages. I wish it would have gone further, and I would have preferred it in another form. But . nevertheless, I think we've got to play this string out. We're worried about 50 lives over there and maybe millions of lives in the future. QUESTION: What is the status of negotiations with the Air Force on the MX Construction Bill? HATCH: Well, last week we met with the Air Force representatives, General Hecker, and others and, of course, assistant secretary of the Air Force, and we are very unhappy with the original draft of the legislation pertaining to the MX, and we've asked that they redraft that legislation. Our people are working with them. We hope we can come up with satisfactory legislation that will please us in Utah and please out total delegation and the Governor. If we can't, I don't know where we're going to go from there, but I think we can. QUESTION: the Senate confirmed California Judge Shirley Hufstedjer as the new Secretary of Education. What influenced your decision to support her nomination? HATCH: Well there's no question about this lady's intelligence. She is one of the great circuit court judges in the country, having sat on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. She is one of the great legal minds in the country. But what really heped me was the assistance I received from the Utah Department Depart-ment of Education and several educators out in the state. Those were big factors in my supporting Judge Hufstedler. She is most capable. She answered our questions well, and although I disagree with a number of her legal decisions, I think that she will probably when she gets in there start to clean house and start to do some things that may be very innovative and good and maybe she'll even get us back to the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic from which we have strayed so far. QUESTION: Senator, Jyou recently introduced a bill to remove one of the many impediments to energy resource development on western public lands. Could you tell us something about that? HATCH: Well my bill, S. 2068, will allow mineral leasing where existing claims prohibit this by law. Now there is an outdated provision from the 1950's that could hinder coal, oil shale and tar sands development in Utah. We are looking for witnesses to come to Washington and to assist us in this matter and to testify. Cont. from page 1 local businessmen. The company has purchased three acres. Federal Funds The two companies already in operation in the park, Valtek and Murdock Cabinet, helped the city obtain ob-tain federal funds' to install utilities in the park. In order to obtain the funds, the city had to have someone committed to build in the park. Those companies provided that committment. In addition to the companies who have bought land, Klauck said he has obtained committments from several other companies, leaving only 10 acres of uncommitted land. Springville's industrial park, Klauck said, is located on land that has been owned by the city since before the turn of the century. According to a local story, the land was pasture that both Provo and Springville wanted. The cities disputed over it for some time until some men from Springville went out one night and constructed a fence around it. 'That settled the argument. When the Ironton plant was built between Springville and Provo, both cities formed the Provo-Springville Holding Company, to hold onto pasture land between the two areas in hopes that an industrial area would expand from Ironton. The expansion never materialized, the Ironton plant closed, and the holding company was dissolved. Palo Alto Impressed with an industrial park in Palo Alto, Calif., Klauck and some other Springville people suggested the turning the city pastures into a similar park. Several mayors have been involved in forming and installing improvements im-provements in the park. The original grant for improvements allowed the city to install water, sewage and other irriprovemnts on about half of the park. The city is currently trying to obtain another grant for the other half of the park. Klauck has been at the head of the entire process, including recruiting companies to enter the park. The position has been volunteer, with the city paying only his expenses, but the city council recently voted to pay him $150 a month starting in 1980 for his work on the park. In addition to working with companies com-panies who are interested in the park, Klauck is the member of several industrial in-dustrial organizations and attends their meetings once a month. The Utah Valley Industrial Development Association (UVIDA), the Industrial and Technological Commission of Utah, the Industrial Development Executive Association of Utah (IDEA), are among them. Membership in these organizations, said Klauck, not only keeps him current on possible companies that are looking for a place to locate, but also helps him protect the city from unsound companies com-panies that may be relocating to escape financial difficulties in another area. Land price Land in the park is relatively inexpensiveit inex-pensiveit sells for $5,000 an acre, but the benefits the city will receive from the park will be seen the most in sales taxes and the number of people it will employ. "It takesa long time," Klauck said, "but it's happening." It has been an even longer time since a community herder let the town's cows loose on the pasture every day to graze. Manufacture of . Computers, sophisticated valve equipment, and other modern products are the park's present and planned functions. But, hopefully, restrictive covenants and sophisticated equipment will make the s park even more useful and attractive, than it was in the past. We triumph without glory when we conquer without danger. Corneille Dec. 18 Boy to Masel and Charlene Elder, 1355 S. 600 E., Springville.
