At long last, Utah and Idaho have ended their silly "feud" that has made it necessary for many car owners to buy license plates in both states. The State Tax Commission, which was wrong In the first place in insisting on double registration, had to back down. Idaho students attending Utah universities have been required to register their autos in Utah, as well as Idaho'; but an Idaho registration, plus a Utah safety inspection sticker, will suffice, as long as they pay fees. , , ; , The tax commission is still, wrongly, we think, requiring people who live in Idaho and work in Utah to buy licenses in both states. Utah has also been insisting on Utah drivers' licenses for these people, and picking up their Idaho licenses on the basis that a person can have only one driver's license. So, back home in Idaho, he is in trouble for having Idaho registration and Utah driver's license. Normally, states have reciprocity agreements so that tourists can drive in any states with any license. Apparently the tax commission has placed some kind of frequency limit on reciprocity. Idaho, it seems, should also extend its reciprocity to Utah boats as Utah has done for Idaho boats. The feud even extended to pheasant hunters, and Utah hunters who paid $25 Idaho lifound cense fees hunting grounds posted "Utah hunters , non-reside- w inet secretary; Gail McDonald, president of the Midvale Lions; Harold Wacker, Magna, zone chairman; Dave McDougal, Taylorsville, public relations chairman; Jenkyn Powell, Rose Park, international councilor and membership chairman; LaVerl Barlow, Granite Park, cabinet treasurer; Ralph' Tye, Taylorsville, zone chairman; Fred Conde, Rose Park, zone chairman.

Murray police officers, who said Peterson's investigated, car was traveling east, apparently at a high rate of speed, and struck the north abutment of the underpass when his car failed to negotiate the curve in the underpass. Officers David H.
