The world would be better off without me." Often, people who are considering suicide will give their belongings away or make arrangements for someone to have them "if I go on a trip" or "If I go away for a while." Dr. Henrle recommended that those who are told such things should contact him or the school counselor so that help can be gotten.

The study points out that the outlook for 1974-7- 5 appears to be equally encouraging. After providing funds for the present school support program and the regular recurring general fund should Utah appropriations, have approximately $68 million remaining next year based on the middle assumption of revenue .growth. These excess funds could be used for additional tax reduction, adjustments In the level of school support, state buildings, and other purposes. Foundation analysts emphasize that there are hazards as well as advantages from the present favorable state financial condition. Of the estimated $68 million remaining In 1974-7- 5 after allowing for the present school support program and the recurring general fund expenditures, $45 million represents nonrecurring funds. H regular operating programs are expanded because of these excess funds serious financing problems could develop In future years when the nonrecurring funds are expended and revenue growth slows down. Utah reported a general fund balance of $354 million at the close of the 1972-7- 3 fiscal year. This balance was after special appropriations of $23.5 million for buildings and other one time Items made by the 1973 Legislature. The special session of the Utah Legislative meeting in October, 1973, eliminated the state property tax levy for school purposes . for 1974 and provided one-tiincome tax credit of $6 per person.

Owens Seeks Equal Treatment for Tourism ld 0 "Rep. Wayne Owens working to include language in the Emergency Energy Act which would allow tourism to be considered on an equal basis with any other major industry for fuel allocation, and has requested that the Chairman of the House Commerce Committee, now working on the bill, make such changes. The Senate passed bill restricts the use of fuel or energy for recreational purposes, and could be disastrous for states like Utah, where tourism and recreation are critical to the economy. Owens said that the House version of the bill has a provision which allows states to seek exemption from the plans tobe pro(D-Ut- posed by the President, but does not calrlfy what sufflcent grounds for exemptions might be. "There are several states, particularly in the tain West and New England, which are largely dependent upon tourism for revenue," said Owens in a letter to the Chairman. "In Utah, tourism is one of the leading Industries In the State." "Such states present a different problem than those whose economy are not dependent on the tourist industry and, as such, need special consideration for fuel allocation," he commented. 'Tor this reason, the Gove nor of Utah and other Governors may well wish to seek exemption from an energy conservation plan proposed by the President" Owens sent the Chairman a 17 page report done by Utah State University which examines the relative importance of tourism to the economies of all 50 states. nation of fortuitous circumstances which are not likely to be repeated In the future." Utah has been the recipient of a number of special "windfalls" such as Federal revenue sharing funds and a court decision which changed the method of computing state corporate Income tax liability and resulted In a substantial settlement of prior year taxes. In addition, the Foundation report points out that revenues collections during recent years have exceeded most advance estimates. Inflation and an unp trailed boom In construction and the sale of durable goods (motor vehicles, appliances, furniture, etc.) have been the major factors in this continued high level of tax collection. ni t mil ii Waves continue to lap at the old Antelope Island road, soon to be upgraded and raised to prevent ,f B r 4 Improvements Planned For Island Causway The State Road Commission today opened bids on a project to build a permanent road linking the Great Salt Lake State Park on the north end of Antelope Island to Syracuse In Davis County. The apparent low bid of $1,894,000.00 for the 10.5 mile projectwas submitted by Parson Asphalt Products of Ogden, Utah. The official engineer's estimate was $2,330,715, Three hundred working days are allowed for completion. The project will build a new road over the oldweather-beate- n causeway. Terms of the contract Include moving more than 3.3 million tons of fill to raise the causeway four to five ie&i aUve its existing level. In recent years the water level of the lake has risen tremendously, often flooding the road during storms. The new road Permits Available for Family Xmas Trees I you enjoy cutting your own family Christmas tree you may obtain a permit from the Beaver District Forest Office. The purpose of making Christmas trees available Is to offer families an opportunity to participate In this type of winter recreation. The area open for cutting on the Beaver Ranger District Is the Merchant Valley area; The area between Merchant Valley Dam and Big Johns Flat Any spedes of tree may be cut, but do not cut trees that are vis able from the main road. The cost of a permit is $1.00 per tree. Permits can be purchased at the Beaver Ranger's Office any week day between 8:00 KM. and 5:00 P.M. Permits will also be sold by a Forest Officer at the Merchant Valley Dam, from 10:00 AJ1. to on December 8, 9, 3:00 P.M. and 15, 1973. Recent snow has made access to the cutting area drive vehicles difficult or snowmobiles will probably be necessary to reach the site. or during bad weather. run-o- ff With these Improvements the full development of the State Park can move forward. Davis County Commissioner Glenn Flint, longtime advocate of tho causeway, and Chairman of the Golden Spike Empire In northern Utah, Is enthusiastic about the Improvements and says the project will be a great asset to the region. "It Is a dream come true for the Golden Spike Empire," he said. "The causeway has been a cooperative effort for a long time." Davis County began initial dredging for the causeway In 1964, with the vision of creating new access to anew are a on Antelope Island. Since these first few years the causeway has required constant attention because ' m of the rising lake waters, 1967 the road was added to the State Highway Network for development as access to the newly established Great Salt Lake State Park. Since then, the Highway Department, Davis County and local communities have provided men, trucks and fill materials In attempting to keep the causeway open. Many attempts have beenmade to obtain funding for the neces- improvements for the but it was not until this year when the State Legislature appropriated five million dollars for improvements to the Great Salt Lake State Park. Half of this money was earmarked to provide a permanent road across the lake to the island. Lait spring the Highway Department agreed to loan up to to the State Division $150,000 of Parks and Recreation for sary causeway, maintaining the causeway above water until the money could be come available for this new contract Before the contractors begin work on the causeway a recent break, 2.7 miles from the Syracuse shore, must be .OTf nil iN paired. District One Engineer Burt Taylor describes the new break as being more than 100 feet across. K good weather prevails for a few weeks, the Seeco should Construction Company complete the necessary fill under a maintenance contract initiated last spring as part of the loan will be sufficiently above the water line to Insure that it will not be flooded even during spring i re- - agreement Strong Interest in the Great Salt Lake and Antelope Island by . tourists Is a prime factor in de- -' veloplng this unique Utah feature. More than 200,000 visitors annually have visited the Great Salt Lake State Park since the causeway was opened. These visitors have come from all parts of the country as well as from local communities. This broad scale use of the park Is the intent of the State Division of Parks and Recreation and can now again be provided when the new project Is completed. Forest Service Notes New Office Hours Forest Supervisor, Flshlake Reed C. Chrlstensen announced new office hours for the Flsh- lake National Forest. Beginning Monday, December 10, 1973 office hours will be changed to 8:00 ajn. to 12:00 noon and 12:30 pjn. to 4:30 p.m. This change is In keeping with a general trend of Governmental Agencies to shorten the period that buildings must be heated In efforts to conserve energy as requested by President Nixon.
