Tremonton City Council members are giving active consideration to a move to get out of the garbage business. Cojncil mem'jers agreed Tuesday evening to ask for bids from individualsorcon-cern- s willing to contract to collect the city garbage. Councilman Jesse Hay has been one of the prim? of a move to contract the garbage service out to a private concern. Day says such a move would allow th; city to cut its man sup-)ort- ers power requirem.- its and upgrade service. Garbage collection is sometimes delayed currently when men are needed for other city emergencies. A total of 7)0 residents are currently billed S2 a moith for garbage collection while 1" businesses pay a varying eomovrcial rate for one or more pickups per week. Day said the city would consider leasing its current garbage truck or selling it to a private conce m. Councilmen stressed that ai) private individual which took over collection would be merely contracting with the city and would have no control over garbage fees and their collection.

Federal outlays include all Federal spending for salaries (civilian and nrlitaryX retirement and other employee benefits. Federal and contracts, purchases to state and grants-in-ai- d local units, and other Federal payments to institutions and individuals. The Federal expenditure total is equal to $994 tor every man, woman, and child residing in Box Elder County, and is the equivalent of 26.2 percent of the total personal income of all inhabitants of the county. By comparison, total Fed- uals in the state. Federal outlays made in Utah were not without substantial cost to residents of the State. According to the study. Utah's share of the taxes required to fund total Federal outlays in fiscal 1973 amounted to $1,095, 000, $1,515,000,000 and were equal to $1,326 per capita. The 000. eral outlays throughout the state last year amounted to Foundation i.otes that this of 34 wai. the eqjivalent percent of the state's total personal income. When state and local spending is included, total outlays by all governmental units in Utah are equivalent to nearly 49 percent of the total personal income received by individ Foundation analysts phasize that the individual and business firm? which paid the taxes to finance the various Federal programs may not necessarily be the same ones benefiting from the Federal activity. More-eve- r, there are widely differing viewpoints regarding the desirability of some of em- the Federal program?. different spending priorities might have been established if the expenditure decisions had been made locally and financed Futh-ermo- re, from ntate, local, or private funds rather than Federal revenues. Altogether, a total of 1,186 separate spending programs administered by 55 differnet Federal agencies were operating throughout the United States last year. Outwere made in Utah lays through 481 of these programs which were administered by 33 of the Federal agencies. continued on page four Andy Fredhckson In Andy Fredrickson.
