This project is somewhat of a proving ground for the ' Jaycees, who now hope to improve and equip children's playgrounds in other subdivisions within our city. The Beverly Subdivision playground project presented to the Jaycees one big headache, however, which has been relieved It seems that the owners of the subdivision, American Housing Corp., required that the playground and equipment be insured for $200 as well as $10 per child in order that they would not be liable for any children's chil-dren's accidents or property damage. Then the Jaycees, with the donated assistance of City Attorney Hiteh Vera Wentz, went to work on the problem. ' After some negotiation the subdivision owners agreed to a most commendable arrangement. This provided that the Jaycees could own the property deed to the 52' x 130' parcel of land as long as the playground was maintained. Many residents of the subdivision have contributed cash donations to the Jaycees to help finance the worthy project. Playground equipment which has been ordered includes swings, slicker slides, sand boxes, etc. However, more funds to purchase additional equipment are still needed and the Jaycees plan to conduct another fund drive in the subdivision in which they will appeal to Bome 30 percent of the residents who have not yet had the opportunity of contributing to the project. A feoal of $5.00 per resident is the necessary quota set by the Jaycees, who will require at least $500 to adequately prepare and equip the playground. We recognize that proper recreation for children is an investment in safety, orderliness, and decent living. To the Jaycees we say "full steam ahead" and to the Jaycees we pledge our editorial support in their energetic and undaunted quest to develop and complete children's playgrounds play-grounds not only in Beverly but to all of the major subdivisions. NAM. UPHOLDS "RIGHT-TO-WORK" The right of American citizens 'to get jobs and hold them without any compulsion to Join or not to Join any organization Is a basic freedom In America, Henry G. Riter, Ri-ter, 3rd, president of the National Association of Manufacturers, declared de-clared recently. " In releasing a four-page NAM study of the "rlght-to-work" laws which have been adopted by 17 states, Riter said: "American industry has a direct responsibility to do Its utmost to protect the other freedoms of its people." Riter. who Is president of Thomas Tho-mas A Edison, Inc., West Orange, N.J., said that Secretary of Labor Mitchell, who recently expressed opposition to state "right to work" laws, has confronted the American Ameri-can people with a serious chal lenge to their liberties. "Not onlv is a basic liberty of the individual the right to work being questioned by a responsible respons-ible Cabinet officer, but the rights of sovereign states to enact laws to protect their own citizens in the right to work are described by Mr. Mitchell as 'doing more than rood.' This Is con trary to views heretofore expres sed by President Elsennower. "There is nothing more Important Import-ant to an individual than earning a living. When a man's opportunity opportun-ity to earn that living Is abridged by compulsory unionism, or any other force, he is deprived of one of his most basic and vital human rights. There is no other area of American life in which a citizen citi-zen is denied freedom of choice."

Smith NOT OUR GAME It looks as though Americans are more upset over the State Department's De-partment's restriction of the movements of Soviet citizens about the US than the Reds who have been put under wraps. At least Americans are complaining. and there has not been a murmur thus far from either the Russian Embassy in Washington or the Kreemlin. The complaints are coming from city and county officials and newspaper editors in places that are not listed as out of bounds for the Soviets, and who apparently feel they have been discriminated against. The State Department has not explaineed how it arrived at its selection of these closed areas comprising 27 percent of the US, except to say that it was on considerations con-siderations of "security and reciprocity". re-ciprocity". Thus, since, the pattern pat-tern seems to make little sense from a security standpoint, it must be assumed the emphasis was on "reciprocity", or more accurately, ac-curately, retaliation for Russia's closing 80 per cent of her territory to Americans and other foreigners foreign-ers Why we extend the three percent per-cent discount has not been explained ex-plained either. It would seem to us that if these Russians are too dangerous to be running loose In this country, we ought to ship them home.

These figures come from studies which show that for every job in a basic industry like Utah Copper, approximately four additional jobs are created elsewhere in the State to meet company and employee needs. This means that for the 6,000 Utah Copper employees, 24,000 other jobs are created in Utah. That's more than 9 per cent of all the people employed. Apply that percentage to the State's 1114 barbers and we find copper keeps 103 of them in business. The surrounding illustrations show how this 9 per cent applies to a few other job classifications in Utah. Apply the percentage to all classifications and you can see how important impor-tant copper production is to the prosperity of the whole State. ' Utah Copper can create jobs only when costs of operation are at a reasonable level so it can compete successfully with .other producers who sell copper. v ' Costs of supplies, services, labor and taxes help determine the extent of the benefits of copper production benefits that reach out to every home in our State.
