Show Governor Hampton Lowers Tax levies Under the laws of the state of Utah the State Tax Commission must, during the first week in Avgust of each year, set the state school property tax levy at a level which will balance out the uniform school fund for the fiscal year then in progress. At that time, the State TaxCommission is in a better position accurately to forecast the cost of the school IUUMI J I BEST BUY ! 1970 Volkswagon Convertible Bug.

STATE 225-0501 program and the revenue yeild into the uniform school fund than was the Legislature when it set the budget six months previously. pre-viously. Based upon revenue trends evident during the past six months from the individual income tax and the corporate franchise tax, Governor Rampton recommended that the state property levy be cut from its present level of 7.2 mills to 4.6 mills. The level of the state school levy ovr the past eight years has been as follows: 1964 - 9.7. ,1965 - 8.6. 1966 -7.3. 19S7 - 7.3. 1968 - 7.3. 19G9 - 7.2. 1970 - 7.2. 1971 -7.2. The excellent condition of the state's economy in this year, which gives every indication of carrying forward through the balance of the fiscal year, should enable us with safety to mike a substantial reduction in this levy. He based the recommendation for a 4.6 mill levy on current estimates of revenue for this fiscal year up-dated on the basis of complete reports of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1972. The estimated cost of the state school program for the current fiscal year used as a basis for the Appropriation Act by the last Legislature is $140,389,800. Governor Rampton stated "I see no reason to change this figure. While we may have a slightly more firm figure by September of this year when all accounts of the uniform school fund for the 1971-1972 fiscal y!ur are closed out, the estimate arrived at last January still appears the best estimate we can reach on the basis of information which will be available by the time you must set the levy. The method of financing the school program in the legislative budget is as follows: You will note that the above calculation gives a margin of safety in the uniform school fund of more than three hundred fifty thousand dollars. In view of the fact that our first obligation is to preserve the integrity of the uniform uni-form school fund, the Governor feels we should retain this much margin in the event there should be some over-run on costs beyond that which we now anticipate. There are several factors which argue persuasively for a reduction in the state school levy on property. The state is in the process of an equalization program which is going to result in substantial increases in assessed valuation. Local units of government are required to reduce re-duce levies to make certain that there be not more than a 6 increase in tax yield as a result of increased valuation. While the state levy is exempt from this provision, I feel that in good faith, said the Governor, we should reduce the state levy as far as possible to make sure that our yield does not increase in-crease as a result of re-evaluation, and further to the greatest extent possible, to compensate for the fact that local school district dis-trict tax yields are going to increase somewhat as a result of the equailization program." Another factor that must be considered is that recent court cases in other states have strongly criticized heavy reliance reli-ance on the property tax as a r """ " ' ' 'J. - y. 1 ' t-y i Elvin R. Hancock basis for support of the school system. It may be that in the next Legislature our entire school finance formula will be over-hauled to me 2t these court cases. "In the meantime I feel we should work as rapidly as possible toward the eventual elimination of any property tax levy at all on the state level stated Governor Calvin L. Rampton to the state tax commission. Orem Airman Completes Training SAN ANTONIO AirmanElvin H. Hancock, son of Mr. and Mrs. Elvin L.

J. -Tired of erector set toys? Want to build something big and real and helpful to ecology? Try an artificial reef. That's what Army Reservists Reserv-ists of the 78th Training Division have been building, in cooperation with Scouts, Jaycees.and ecology-minded youth and adults from throughout New Jersey. Already, the Reservists and the others participating in the all-volunteer, statewide state-wide project, have dumped 60,000 discarded auto tires into the 60-foot deep reef site in the Atlantic Ocean about three miles off the shore of this community. They punch holes in the tires, weight them with chunks of concrete and load them aboard fishing craft. The boats take them to the reef area three and one-half miles long and 1,000 feet wide. There, they are dumped dump-ed into the briny and settle on the ocean floor. Algae, mussels, and clams attach themselves to the tire reef. Small fish are attracted at-tracted by the food. And larger fish the anglers don't have to throw back are not far behind. The reef has increased the run of mackerel in the area-as area-as any bonafide fishing buff who tries his luck off the Jersey shore will tell you. And as the reef grows there's plenty of room for thousands of additional tires at the site-the chances are the number of mackerel will, too. So for the ecology and for the fisherman, life here is better, thanks to the Army Reserve and the other volunteers.
