Gibson Did you ever notice that the water from the fountain by the Western Tire & Auto Supply store seems to be umpteen degrees colder than the water from the fountain near the Venice Theatre . . . even if you stand and let the water in the latter fountain run for a few minutes. Dont ask why it all comes from the same storage tank! reg The old saying that money goes a long doesnt apply to todays deflated dollar. reg way D1DYOUNOTICE . . . ? We flubbed a couple of weeks ago in the article concerning the selection of Miss Juab County Fair. We stated, erroneously, that she would be a candidate for Miss Utah State Fair. Not so, we have learned, because no Miss Utah State Fair will be selected. Our Miss Juab County will join with those of Tooele, Utah, Carbon, and Piute counties in reigning over the fair on September 5 and 6 Friday and Saturday. Other county queens will have other days throughout the 10 days of the big event. reg doesnt take much of a mathematician to divide the annual payroll paid by NRP, Inc.s Nephi plant into 52 pieces and to see that the strike, now some five weeks old, is costing the Nephi, Levan, Mona, and Fountain Green area thousands upon thousands of dollars each week in lost payroll. NRPs annual payroll is said to be about $2.7 million, and this hurridly breaks down to $51,230 weekly. Of course, this amount includes the salaried personnel who are not on strike, but if things get extended for a while more, its sure to include each of them. The loss is shared by some 250 men and women who have been the production force at the plant, and their loss is offset to a certain extent by Union funds picket money used to help defray expenses of members while they are on strike. But the loss to the individuals and to their families is not all. The dollar the worker earns goes to help support the families of grocery store employees, of service station operators, and employees of the hardware and clothing store, as well as rountless other stores and enterprises in town all of whom provide needed services. And it goes to help pay the taxes of the workmen and of the other individuals, firms, and businesses in the area. It also helps fix the teeth, pay for the new babies, etc., etc., and over and, over again the dollar works and works. It is our humble desire that when the parties to the negotiations meet again, an equitable meeting ground can be reached. We feel that we may face situations that are unbecoming to the friendliest of relations if the present situation is extended. We take no sides as far as offers, counteroffers, demands, desires, etc., are concerned, but for the good of our communities, we do hope that the solutions can be peaceful in all respects. It reg Word from the Utah Department of Transportation (formerly the Department of Highways) is that the state is going to spend $122,633 on upgrading highway 50-- 6 from the Juab-Utacounty line just outside of Eureka eastward some six miles. Were sure that the need for greater safety on this route has been on the must list for some time. The new project work calls for no less than 30 feet of unobstructed vision on either side of the highway, with 26 trees being removed and 6,800 feet (thats a mile and a quarter or so) or guard rail being placed. How the heck theyre going to get 30 feet of unobstructed vision around some of those tight curves in that canyon we dont quite understand, with that tight dugway situation. h reg Volume 66, Number 36 Union calls Plans completed for Anniversary Event a.m. meet Saturday 10 Jerry Steele, president of Local 918 of Rubber Workers Union, said Tuesday that a meeting of the members of the local organization will be conducted on Saturday at 10 a.m. at the Juab High School auditorium.
