Ashby of Although President Daryl Chase the university could not be pres- usually is quiet alxiut what be did yesterday. Since this is an election year, we have some figures that perhaps might prove interesting. We gleaned the same from a circular issued by the Associated Civics Clubs of Southern and Eastern Utah, and goes as follows: Have you ever tried to visualize how much money 258 billion dollars is? Well, here is a hazy idea of that fantastic figure. Suppose we gave a railroad the job of moving 258 billion silver dollars at one time. Keep in mind that a thousand silver dollars weigh 58 pounds. If we were to load 40,000 lbs. of silver dollars into boxcars, each car would contain 689,655 dollars. It would require 374,100 boxcars, each carrying a 40,000 lb. (20 ton) load to hold the equivalent of our national debt. Based on standard 50 ft. freight cars, this would make a solid train 3542 miles long. Starting in San Francisco, this train would stretch across the continent to New York and would extend 312 miles out into the Atlantic Ocean. Suppose you were in your car and got stuck at a railroad crossing. With this train traveling at a constant 60 mph, you would have to wait 59 hours and 3 minutes for it to pass more than two days. Can you imagine how many cars that would hold up. THESE FIGURES ARE EASED ON OUR NATIONAL DEBT ON October 1, 1951. Now, seven years later, we have added another 30 billion dollars to the total. Our hypothetical train would stretch out into the Atlantic almost to the European continent, where most of our dollars are going anyway.

In order to keep up with the times, he stated that we must accept changes. He emphasized the loss of population in the county and discussed the position of personal income, cash farm income and tourist potential.

This would be lest, confusing, and better training for young people. A need was expressed for a better balance between livestock and wild life. It was stated that wildlife is pushing livestock from the ranges. Revenue received by fish and game should be spent in areas concerned with the hunting. A need was expressed for a home demonstration agent for the county. Irrigation seepage losses were discussed, with the suggestion that should be concentrated efforts made to correct this situation. It was felt that some method should be employed to retain young Industry people in the county. might be encouraged, as well as making an effort to retain young people on the farm. Other subjects discussed included available minerals in county, mar- keting of manufactured milk, irrigation water measurement, purchasing locally, low farm commodity prices, culinary water, livestock disease, and human relations, and cooperation. Following the discussion, Mrs. Clyde Behling and Mrs. Dorothy club Olsen, together with eight members, served the refreshments. In summarization,- Director Holm pointed out that people's attitudes are responsible for their action. Most of our problems are caused by, and can be corrected by human conceptions.

Refreshments were also served as part of the confab. Weather Report Castle Dale, Official Station Alvin Jensen, Observer If the partnership is operating on a smooth basis, everyone benefits. The newspaper is then able to take its place in the community, and can grow and become an economic asset. Advertisers will enjoy increased business, through advertising, and readers will receive a better coverage of news because of the larger, better organized paper. During the past year the PRO-RES- S has carried approximately 250 news pictures; some 1600 news stories; over 500 town columns, as well as over a hundred editorials, personal columns, school columns, feature stories and many other features. And, according to a report received some time ago, the paper, during the past year, has printed some 40,000 names of county residents. Multiply these figures by the 59 years that the paper has been published, and it will amount to quite a figure. As was stated, however, the paper can function adequately only when all three members of the partnership is working toward a common goal to see that our community has the best. As an observance of newspaper week, the PROGRESS is extending an invitation to anyone to visit the plant, see the added facilities which are now in use, and offer suggestions on future improvements. |
