The months of November and December are the two best months for newspaper traditionally As I advertising. If these two months are indications of the extent of advertising in Beaver, we will not be able to keep the Press in existence. We have no intention of letting the Beaver Press die. We don't believe you want it to die. After doing research on merchandise in Beaver we have compiled a list of services and products which are not offered here in our town. Going to Cedar City in search of advertisers who are with our businesses in Beaver is the we are going to be able to survive. We still do and always will believe if you can buy a product in Beaver you should do so. Honest communication is our policy. By telling you that we are forced, financially, to go elsewhere for advertising we are presenting the truth of our posit ion to you.

Gaslight The company will continue the policy of including only two informational messages in each movie. "We see this move mutually beneficial to Mountain Fuel and Channel 20, Zabriskie said. "The prime time is a great plus for viewers, and we think we will bring a large audience to Channel 20. This move will give a lot of people the additional incentive they need to tune into the new UHF channel and obtain a UHF antenna if they need one." Mountain Fuel is aware that viewers in some portion of the state are not able to receive Channel 20's signal. So Mountain Fuel has made arrangements with KUED, Channel 7, to provide the same great movies to those people unable to receive Channel 20. Eight weeks after a movie appears on Gaslight Theater on Channel 20, Mountain Fuel will make the same movie available to Channel 7 for showing. KUED will show the movies twice, at 0:30 p.m. on Fridays and again at 12:30 p.m. on Saturdays. "We were hesitant to make the move to Channel 20 until we were able to make this type of arrangement with Channel 7," Zabriskie said. "We know that many viewers in the outlying areas of the state have become Gaslight Theater fans, and we are pleased they will be able to continue to see these classic films." Channel 20 management has already contracted with consul- tants regarding the construction of a translator system that will expand their coverage area throughout the stale. "We have enjoyed our association with KTVX, Channel 4, for the past three years. They have promoted the program widely, As you know, the United States to reduce its dependency on foreign oil. At the same time, it wants to being to make better use of its own enormous coal reserves, not only to gain independence from foreign manipulation and uncomfortable control, but also to bring down the cost to the American consumer. So... here's the idea: Build a gigantic power plant on what is now unoccupied wasteland in Southern Utah. It would be the world's largest, and it would use more than sixty coal thousand tons of a day, mined from the very plateau on which it sits. It would produce six million kilowatts of power - enough to supply the needs of six million people the Southwestern throughout United States... power. ..and, at employ or cause of thousands of what is now an are;t of the relatively cheap the same time, the employment people in depressed area economically Southern Utah. Ho that idea? Doesn't it do you like sound wonderful? Logical. ..a really super idea? Well, it was.

Oh, yes. ..the idea has been killed. It was killed by governIt was ment bureaucracy. strangled to death by red tape and frightened, unimaginative political appointees in Washing- ton. The environmentalists tried to kill the idea. They were worried about the future of the kangaroo rat. Real environmentalists don't concern themselves with protecting things like a democracy, or the human beings who dwell in it, or the dependency of a nation on the good will of a group of Arab nations for forty-twpercent of the country's oil. ..or the saving of five hundred million dollars a year in foreign oil costs which this project would have saved. They tried to kill it, and they maimed it some. ..but the real death sentence was delivered in good old Washington, D.C. by then Interior Secretary, Rogers Morton, without, according to the department, even reading the impact statement supplied by the people w ho wanted to build the project! How do you like those apples? Anyway, that's how you strangle a democracy? That's how you bleed it to death, by killing bold and imaginative projects that could save it.

According to Brent Hutchings, superintendent of the waterfowl management area, clipping of saturated vegetation is being done, and high pressure water is being used to wash the soil, especially the cattail areas.

Hatch in efforts to bar federal funding for abortions during the 95th Congress. An amendment was introduced to the Labor-HI.Appropriations bill to prohibit public funding of abortions except where the life of the mother would be endangered. Although the amendment was unsm cssful. its strong showing was influential in the House Senate conference where a compromise was reached placing some significant limitations on such funding. A key role was in limiting the authoriza- played tion of federal bureaucrats to in behalf of lobby Congress abortion funds, and a fight in conference was successful in preventing the U.S. Civil Rights Commission from spending public funds to argue cases for free abortions.
