Commissioners Tuesday said they favor the legislation which would have a significant financial impact on Box Elder county. Chairman Don Chase said roughly figured, he has determined it would bring in an amount equal to about one mill of tax or $70,000 annually. At the present time, the only revenue which the county realizes on federal lands is a percentage of fees for certain uses such as grazing. It amounts to less than $5,000 a year. Utah 3 Thursday, February 14, 1974 DdBQD payDsaQDBtJs Of the countys 5,627 square miles of land area, some 45.99 percent is federally owned, much of it in the far western area which is administered by the Bureau of Land Management. now pending in Basically, the bill would allow every county to Congress make a choice: To continue to take from the federal government (BLM, Forest service, etc.) a percentage of the federal revenues generated by the natural resource lands in the county. To have the federal lands appraised, placed on the tax rolls and taxed at the same millage rate which is applied to private lands. a coSenator Frank E. Moss of comto the has written bill, sponsor missioners of Utahs 29 counties asking for their comments and recommendations. Moss enclosed copies of the bill with his letters and told the commissioners that their comments will be the basis of his testimony at hearings to be held later this year. Commissioner John Holmgren said much of the federal lands in Box Elder county already have been appraised so there would be no delay in this facet of the proposed new approach. He quoted County Assessor Clifton G. M. Kerr as estimating the average assessed value of federal lands in the county at $2 per acre. Republicans honor Bennett Win independents, GOP hears who delivered a tribute to Lincoln. Entertainment was provided by A challenge to win back lost party supporters was hurled at Republican party members gathered Monday for the annual Box Elder Lincoln Day dinner in Brigham The Good Company from Weber State college. Senator Bennett in his remarks, noted that the number of citizens professing City. Senator Wallace F. Bennett who has announced that he will step down at the end of this term, also expressed hope that the GOP will not desert President Richard M. Nixon as it did Abraham Lincoln when the Great Emancipator sought election to a second term. Some 220 persons attended the yearly event in the community center, paying tribute to Senator Bennett who is in his 24th year in Congress. Olof E. Zundel, former Brigham City mayor and now a member of the Utah Public Service commission, said Bennett is a man honored by presidents of both parties. party Republican membership has declined from 38 percent of those polled in 1940 to 24 percent, according to the most recent Gallup poll. At the same time, the Democratic party has remained the same at 42 percent while 34 percent of the public now describe themselves as independents. So the challenge is to win back those independents who have defected from the GOP, the senator said. To win them back, he proposed stressing the Republican partys assets as a party of unity and singleness of purpose, a party which has faith in America and faith in the people with a resolute approach to solving problems. Also, the retiring solon'said we are a party of strength and growth abroad as well as at home. Man of Ideals He described him as a man of ideals who has served with honor and without compromising his principles. The gathering also heard from County Chairman Jack Molgard, Vice Chairman Not an Issue Glover and Diane Carter, secretary, in addition to Frank Nishiguchi He declared DeLone recent that, as evidence by a election in Pennsylvania, Watergate is not an issue on which elections should be settled. He noted that in the upcoming election, northern Utahns will elect a senator and a pointing out that representative,, Democratic candidates for those offices may well be incumbents. He described the Democrats as being divided while getting in position to run with Governor Rampton on one side in Utah and Rep. Wayne Owens on the other. Senator Bennett implied that Owens was obligated to labor, receiving $29,000 from one union alone in hislast campaign, and an echo of Sen. Edward Kennedy. He further charged that the other party believes in getting power over people while the Republicans seek to serve, not to rule. We believe in leaving power to the people. After his address, the senator was presented a gift by Rudolph Kaiser, a former city councilman and ardent Republican. The gift consisted of silver coins marking Senator Bennetts birthdate, the year he entered office and the year of his retirement.
