As I read these sub-sections, (3) seems to indicate that all vehicles of 3,000 pounds or over must be equipped with adequate brakes. Sub-section (4) states that a vehicle ve-hicle weighing less than 1,500 lbs. is exempt from the braking condition. con-dition. Although sub-section (3) says over 3,000 it does not specifically specif-ically say that for 1,500 to 3,000 pounds the brakes are not necessary. neces-sary. Sub-section (4) gives the inference in-ference that all vehicles over 1,500 pounds must be equipped with adequate ade-quate brakes. Since the Legislature has placed this requirement, we would have to inform you that all vehicles would have to comply with sub-section (4) or have brakes on vehicles weighing over 1,500 lbs. Nov. 1.

Clinton, Director Di-rector of Region IV of the Bureau of Reclamation, Salt Lake City; Mr. Jay R. Bingham, Executive Director of the Utah Water and Power Board and Mr. J. Stewart McMaster, Field Solicitor for the Department of the Interior, Salt Lake City. The meeting, sponsored by the Utah Water and Power Board, was planned to provide a factual, accurate ac-curate and up-to-date review of the project. By mid-1961, five years after the authorization of the $1 billion Upper Up-per Colorado River Project, construction con-struction will have begun on all four authorized storage units and six of the eleven authorized participating par-ticipating projects. Glen Canyon Dam, Flaming Gorge Dam, Navajo Dam and the Blue Mesa Dam are the four authorized storage units. The Central Utah Project is one of the eleven authorized participating partici-pating projects and the one that concerns Sevier River directly. The project was started in the fiscal year 1959. On the Central Utah project hinges, in large measure, the continued con-tinued growth along the Wasatch front center of the state's anticipated antici-pated economic and population growth. Mr. J. Stewart McMaster developed develop-ed the topic of conservancy districts. dist-ricts. Mr. McMaster stated that the purposes of a conservancy district are to conserve, develop, and stabilize stab-ilize supplies of water for domestic, irrigation, power, manufacturing, and other beneficial uses. Mr. McMaster pointed out that a conservancy district is a public corporation provided by the laws of the State of Utah. In developing his topic, Mr. Mc Master said that is necessary to have a single agency to contract with the United States for federal funds. Also, the 'legislation authorizing author-izing the project specifies that a Conservancy District will be organized. organ-ized. A Conservancy District usually usual-ly covers a county but in the case of the Central Utah Project the district should, of necessity, cover several counties. Wayne D. Criddle, State Engineer, stated that immediate action should be taken to establish a Conservancy Con-servancy District covering the whole of Sevier River. In order to begin construction when plans are ready for Central Utah Project, a Conservancy District must be fully ful-ly organized by August, 1962. To meet this deadline the organizational organiza-tional procedures should be under way by March, 1961, less than six months away. Local water officials extend a sincere "thank you" to the many farmers and businessmen of the county for attending the meeting. Funeral Services Held Saturday for T.
