Show WEEKLY REFLEX JOURNAL. DECEMBER A delegation of ten women met with Davis County Com- missioners to clarify the position that because they favor the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) dots not mean they are antifamily. SPOKESPERSON for the delegation, Eleanor Willhard, Bountiful, said the group was disappointed when the commission signed a proclamation at the insistence of the Pro-Lif- group y on the assumption that this group alone supported We are all family. the ," she said. Mrs. Willhard said that the had between them 31 children and ten grandchildren. All of us are doting mothers and grandmothers and our family concerns come first. We resent the implication that because we are for ERA the assumption is made that we can't be profamily as well. delegation pro-ER- COMMISSIONER Wendell Zaugg defended the position of the commission, saying that men and women are not equal. "Hepointedtoexamples in the building trade and oil industry where he said that women couldnt compete on an equal basis with men. When a woman can put a 20 foot pipe on each shoulder and carry it, shes equal, he said. Mrs. Willhard said the equal rights amendment is concerned only with equality under the law. According to another Nancy Carter, member of the delegation, ERA will give women the right to make the choice whether they wish to work or to remain at home. At the present time women dont have the same opportunity for jobs as men with a similar education and background. MRS. Willard said only one of the women in the delegation was presently employed. The amendment will give John McQuade Construction Co. Lie. Go. Contractor- 825-981- 2 Custom Homes, Additions, Remodel Build with someone who more dignity to being a housewife. How can that position destroy the family? Commissioner Glen Flint said the passage of ERA would place more women in If the the job market. mother is in the home, nine chances out of ten the boys and girls will not be in trouble, he said. LYNETTE Wilson, another member of the delegation, pointed out that at the present time Utah exceeds the national average in the number of working women. Mrs. Willhard said, Most women work for economic reasons. According to Mrs. Wilson, the position of the group is that employment should be decided on the basis of who is qualified for the job whether that person is male or female. Commissioner Zaugg said he personally wouldnt hire a male typist. HE POINTED out that the county employs many females, but was able to point out only one case where a woman headed a department. Mrs. Willhard said the group represented women who had lived in the county for many years, had worked in civic groups and were members of several religions. We support ERA because of our concern for the family and for women who must support their families. That woman should get equal wages, she said. SHE POINTED out that amendment reads simply: Equality of rights under the law shall not be abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex. She said passage of ERA will put the pressure on to avoid discrimination. County Clerk Rod Walker said he saw little need for the amendment since the Civil Act Rights prohibits discrimination. But, according to Mrs. Willhard, there is a two year waiting list for cases charging discrimination under Civil Rights legislation to be heard by the courts. D.

This water would raise the inadequate pressure of 495 connections north of 300 North Street. The repair of the two wells at Freeport Center would enable the city to serve the Freeport Center with more pressure and also add some water into the city lines, thereby increasing that water pressure where it has been inadequate, especially in the northwest side of the city. HUGH Wheelock of Kaiser-ma- n Associates, Inc., Salt Lake City, ran a test on the largest well and found it was only producing 1,225 gallons per minute. With a 100 horsepower pump and the installation of another set of bowls plus the replacement of the six present bowls at the bottom of the pump, the flow could be increased to 1,600 gallons per minute. Mr. Wheelock said it would cost between $4,000 and $6,000 to make the necessary repairs. The second or smaller well was drilled in 1942 and has been giving about 800 gallons The patterns. pany transporting them, reducing risks of the victim dying enroute. COMMISSIONERS lives.

Mr. Wheelock and Mr. McGregor recommended that if the city could raise the $12,000, it would be wise to repair the two wells as soon DURING the as possible.
