Your Right To Know Freedom to say what you think is fundamental to all other freedoms we enjoy in our country. And as part of our highly complex com-plex society, freedom of all types of communication communica-tion is essential to main-. main-. tain a social organization that can adapt to constant change. Franklin Delano Roosevelt once said, "Freedom of conscience, of education, of speech, of assembly are among the very fundamentals of democracy and all of them would be nullified should freedom of the press ever be successfully success-fully challenged."

This prediction was contained in a research report prepared by Utah Foundation, the private research organization, and is based in part on projections made by the State Planning Office. According to separate projections projec-tions made by the Foundation and by the State Planning Office, the total population of the State will exceed 2V4 million persons by the year 2000. Moreover, these population projections pro-jections represent rather conservative conser-vative forecasts since they reflect only current trends and the existing economic structure. Several potential poten-tial developments such as the MX deployment system, the Intermoun-tain Intermoun-tain Power Project, synthetic fuel processing, etc., could raise these state totals by another Vk. While both the Foundation and the Planning Office reports indicate that Utah's population will exceed 2V4 million by the year 2000, the Planning Office projections forecast a rapid growth in the earlier years and a gradual slowing down toward the turn of the century. The Foundation Foun-dation projections, on the other hand, show a rather steady growth over the 20-year period. As a ret. a, the Planning Office projections ..re higher in the earlier years, but the Foundation projection ends up slightly higher for the year 2000. The report indicates that there will be an increase of more than a half million persons in Utah's normal nor-mal working-age brackets (20-64) between 1980 and the year 2000. Approximately Ap-proximately 445,000 new jobs must be created during this period in order or-der to accomodate this expected population increase. During the past ten years, nonagricultural employment em-ployment in Utah rose by nearly 210,000 jobs, with the private seS accounting for 87 of the increase.- Goven.i ..-nt em,.. i.kuI made up 28 of Utah nonagricultural employment em-ployment in 1970 and 22.5 in 1980. Population growth throughout the United States has tapered off during recent years, but Utah is experiencing ex-periencing the greatest growth in its history. Between 1970 and 1979, Utah's resident population rose by 308,000, or 29. Utah's growth rate during this nine-year period was Vk times the U.S. average, and was exceeded ex-ceeded by only five other states. Foundation analysts point out that one of the major factors in Utah's rapid growth is a birth rate that is highest in the nation and nearly twice the U.S. average. The birth rate in Utah has been rising during the past 15 years while that of the nation as a whole has been declining. The second important factor in Utah's rapid population growth during recent years has been a strong in-migration. Between 1970 ai.d 1979, there was a net in-migration in-migration of approximately 80,000 individuals to Utah, reversing an out-flow trend during the preceding decade. The study noted that this influx in-flux of new population to Utah during the 1970's was the largest in its history, including the early pioneer migrations. Among the factors cited by the report for this growth turn-around during the 1970's are (1) a shifting of population to the South and to the West, (2) energy development, (3) vast natural resources which are now in demand, (4) a guarantee of adequate water for future growth, (5) , an attractive business climate, (6) a good supply of essential utility services, (7) a desirable lifestyle, (8) development of recreation facilities, and (9) increased development develop-ment of manufacturing within the State.

A cast of approximately approxi-mately four hundred characters will have spent six weeks in intensive rehearsals by the opening night, and as many more .are involved in production. produc-tion. These people, including in-cluding the director, give their time and talent to the Pageant free of charge. In spite of fuel shortages shor-tages and rising travel costs, the Pageant in 1979 drew an audience as large or larger than any previous pre-vious year, with over one hundred thousand coming from most states in the United States and many foreign countries. Listed by the Institute of Outdoor Drama as the outdoor production with the largest average atten dance per nigni in America, Amer-ica, The Mormon Miracle Pageant is a religious drama. The story of the Mormon people, since the beginning in New York State in 1820 and following their western migration through Ohio, Missouri, Illinois and across the great plains of America is portrayed in vivid sequence. Flashbacks of scenes from the Book of Mormon, dramatized in colorful imagery, tell some of the history of a people who lived on the American Continent many hundreds of years ago, and left their ruins. The settlement of the Mormon Pioneers in what is now Utah and surrounding surround-ing states in the Mountain West, is poignantly recalled. 5 Miracle Pageant Planned For July Attend Church $ |
