J. A. Walton, president of Gasohol Productions Ltd. of Rockville, Md., said the $3.5 million plant, now under construction, will be a prototype for production of a mixture of 90 gasohol percent gasoline and 10 percent grain alcohol. "Our concept is to build and operate a plant where everything, from the farm products used for grain to the plant equipment, comes from a radius," he said. Production levels will be determined by the cur-re100-mi- nt needs of L. S'n t4tf JdiTSfy,tOkfr Brr!

The fuel will be used to power police cars, garbage trucks, snowplows and other vehicles of the Vi mmJtiJy "" T county and the four cities, where many senators, congressmen and other federal government officials live a short distance from the nation's capital. Walton said the grain alcohol for the gasohol will be taken from the abundant corn crops of the area near Washington and equipment at the plant will be fueled mainly by western Maryland coal. Solar energy, natural gas, and fuel oil will be used as secondary energy sources for the plant's operation. "The main purpose is to solve a need not now budget being pursued increases because of energy costs or the cutting back of services due to gas costs," Walton said. "(County and municipal governments) are fighting a losing battle of finding adequate fuel supplies and, when they do, how to pay for them." Walton said his plant will provide an example for future gasohol plants that J I VllvW I 5- "- A fur-lik- Mt Y 4f Mr I I 1 J, bi1 of r6a 0 foAen m i0 If 4201 1 JlfySr. IP 'K V This crea,ion JrS0t xvL For Girl The Graduate generousy r3 cover to add luxuriousness and I warmth I related pair we're very proud to . t0 yur w JJS up- - I V decorating hiah-fashio- cor- - n 7Wj) mmmmmmmmiti'r $157 BEDROOM I mmmm I I I TRANSITIONAL TRADITIONAL ELEGANCE Ons of the finest beauties you could ask for in a handsomely tailored sofa and matching loveseat.

"Our cities and counties are in serious trouble due to runaway energy costs," he said. "Fuel costs to run the many vehicles operated by cities and counties have increased 90 percent in less than one year and the worst yet to come." Walton said he will sell the gasohol to county and municipal governments at 10 percent under the current retail price. Consumers who want to buy the gasohol will have to pay the retail price, which still should be below gasoline prices. rV frit MODERN jJJ $299.95 J tJtJki I mm $389.95 PROVO MORE REASONS GRANITE IS THE MOUNTAIN WEST'S LARGEST VOLUME HOME FURNISHINGS STORE PROVO 1134 North 5th West 373-353- 0 "UTUil SALT LAKE 1050 East 21st South 0 486-333- 3 HE "HOME" FOLKS SOLID VALUES FOE!
