Mr. Roderick pointed out that over the past two years, steel imports averaged aver-aged about 20 million tons annually, resulting in a steel trade deficit "which is now one of the largest - single components in the overall U. S. trade deficit. Assuming present trends continue," he added, "it has been estimated that imports could reach 25 to 30 million tons annually in the 1980's which would mean a steel trade deficit of between $12 and $15 billion a year."

Steel mills abroad are used instead as a means of ensuring full employment employ-ment and maintaining healthy trade balances." Bouyed up by the overwhelming over-whelming taxation powers of their governments, he noted, "foreign producers are establishing a firm beachhead on American soil," while domestic steel capacity "shrinks and the capital for expansion and modernization diminishes." dimin-ishes." While Mr. Roderick statedhe had hoped that the Adminstration's device de-vice for detecting dumping, dump-ing, called the Trigger Price Mechanism (TPM), would correct some of the imbalances in world steel trade, he said "so far, we have little cause for rejoicing." Citing two reasons why TPM has not been more effective, he charged that Japanese production costs are used to set the trigger price for all foreign steel regardless re-gardless of where it is produced, permitting other countries to sell at well below their actual costs. "What is more," he added, "TPM is based only on estimated costs of steel production rather than on either actual costs or home market price. These obvious 'blind spots' must be corrected if TPM is going to be an effective means of ensuring fair trade," he concluded. Asserting that the economic affairs of the world are becoming ever more entwined in politics, Mr. Roderick said the U. S. must look increas ingly to negotiations and agreements among governments govern-ments for the answers to trade problems. "One such forum for international negotiation is the new In ternational Steel Com mittee formed last November Novem-ber under the auspices of the Organization for Economic Eco-nomic Cooperation and Development," he noted. Comprised of most of the major steel producing nations including Canada, Japan and all nine Common Com-mon Market countries, Mr. Roderick said "the committee will act as a watchdog for developing problems in steel trade and as a forum for trade legotiations. I hope our )wn government will con-;inue con-;inue to provide leader-ihip leader-ihip and direction for the committee in the months ind years ahead."

Concluding his remarks, re-marks, Mr. Roderick said "it is possible through effective ef-fective international mechanisms, to achieve reasonable levels of equity and reciprocity in trade among nations, and that is all the steel industry reasonably expects from our government.

Letter To The Editor Dear Editor, At this time of year, the elected and appointed officials of the City of Orem are going through the challenging process of formulating a budget for the fiscal year to commence com-mence July 1, 1979. The process includes estimating esti-mating revenues from property taxes, sales taxes, and other sources, and then allocating those revenues to certain programs, pro-grams, projects and departmental de-partmental budgets for expenditure. Although the Mayor and City Council have the responsibility of approving the final budget, experience exper-ience in years past has shown that they do not involve themselves in approving the line-item budgets of the various City departments. This practice has resulted in some instances of wasteful waste-ful spending of Orem tax dollars. Particularly I am concerned con-cerned about the present practice of allowing certain cer-tain appointed officials in the City of Orem the luxury of taking City cars and pickup trucks home from work. The spending of citizens' tax dollars for this purpose is wasteful and unnecessary. To one who may examine the City's budget to determine the historical costs of this practice and the amounts budgeted for future expenditure, expen-diture, the actual amounts of money are not easily ascertainable because they are "hidden" in the For the Week of May 17 thru May 23 BROWN Holly Brown To Present Piano Recital Holly Brown, 13, daugn-ter daugn-ter of Mr. and Mrs. Russell Rus-sell 0.

Except for certain City employees who may be subject to emergency call-out during off-duty hours, the practice of taking City vehicles home should not be permitted. The present practice of providing the City Manager Mana-ger (his is a leased car paid for by tax dollars and fueled at City pumps), the Assistant City Manager, Mana-ger, and several other Public Works and Public Safety administrative personnel per-sonnel transportation for their off-duty hours at taxpayer tax-payer expense cannot be justified. These individuals indivi-duals do require transportation trans-portation many times during normal working hours in the performance of their duties and this is a justified expense. As the Mayor and City Council review budgetary expenditure requests for the coming year, I urge them to investigate all areas of possible waste by looking at the detail of the departmental budgets. A most effective way to save money and to conserve a shrinking gasoline supply would be to sharply curtail cur-tail use of City vehicles by off-duty employees. Mrs. L.
