B. Gibson Edlror-PublUlMf Jack S. Pace Monojer Karl Banks News Mlror Editorial . . PROPHETS WITHOUT HONOR Sometime ogo we were audacious enough to state in public print that the people of Utah would not fare too well financially, if and when Congress passed the Federal Aid to Education bill. Congress has passed the bill and last weekend President Johnson signed the One billion dollar measure in the "Little Red School House" in Texas, where he first attended school. Now for once, at least, we have been proven right. According Accord-ing to figures, released last week by the Utah Foundation, Utah's taxpayers will contribute much more to the program than they get back. Almost twice as much, in fact. The I billion in tax dollars will be distributed to the states on a "low family income" basis. States having the greatest number of low income families will receive the largest amount of aid, per school child." Thus New York, with thousands of low income Negro and Puerto Rican families on welfare, will receive about $35.00 per school child. Utah, with relatively few low income families, will receive only about $6.00 per school child. States like Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, who have numerous low income famijies and who have made meagre state educational effort, will do right well from the federal educational dole. People of Utah may take some comfort from the thought of helping to educate the children of poor people in other states. But it's hard to reconcile all this with the hard fact that NEA "sanctions" "were imposed against the people of Utah for "doing such an inferior job" of educating their children. Oh well, as the man said, "It's federal money, so why worry." And "a prophet is not without honor, save In his own country." Relative Hospitalized H0SpTAL NEWS Word has been received by family merrfbers, Mr. and Mrs. 0. M. Shoemaker and Mr. and Mrs. Bryant Hicks, that their brother in law Rolland G.

Early Angling Is Available in State of Utah Early angling opportunities are provided throughout Utah by the many waters open to fishing fish-ing on a year-round basis. They include both lake and stream where cold and warm water fishes may be taken. A rash of questions about these waters and a rush, of anglers going to them is common com-mon to the first warm spring days. Most of the questions are best answered by the local conservation con-servation officer. The waters open all year are listed in the 1965 angling proclamation, proc-lamation, along with all rules and regulations covering the fishing season. These are avail-" avail-" able from any of the more than 500 license agents and from Department of Fish and Game offices.
