UTAH SOLON URGES CITY OFFICIALS TO SEEK FEDERAL FUNDS FOR OREM AIRPORT In order to obtain federal funds for airports near the small er communities of the state, the municipal officers of Orem were urged to cooperate and develop a unified approach and a stronger case for the small airports with officials in similar localities. This was the gist of a letter from Congressman Con-gressman Henry Aldous Dixon (R-Utah) received this week. -The entire federal and state ap propriation for airports in Utah went to Salt Lake City for a number of years past, he pointed out. Last year, 1955, the smaller communities broke into the appropriation ap-propriation column for the first time. Salt Lake City received $560,395 while the rest of the state received $159,429. Congress man Dixon indicated he would help work for a greater apportionment appor-tionment to the outlying areas In the state. Dr. Dixon's letter indicated that the chief former deterent to the use of federal money for secondary second-ary airfields had been removed. A ruling of the Secretary of Commerce Com-merce that ten airplanes had to be located on a field before it was eligible for recognition was eliminated elim-inated in the last session of Congress. Con-gress. Support of the Utah Aeronautics Aeronaut-ics Commission for 23 new secondary second-ary fields throughout the state was announced in December by Harlon W. Bement, state aeronautics aero-nautics director. The need for the new fields is primarily based upon up-on the enormous expansion of business flying in recent years and upon the need for emergency landings. The 23,000 aircraft now owned by private business and private organizations is 17 times the number operated by domestic airlines. Federal funds can provide pro-vide 62.44 percent of the total cost of the new airfields and airports. At Utah Valley Hospital: Jan. 7: Boy to Dale and Halite Spaugy Backus.
