The City will take care of the property outside the building. Lease payments may be waived for the first few months to help the doctor get established. Mayor Peterson stated the building should be an enticement to any doctor with its modern facilities. In the past, the tenant of the building, Dr. Fallon, had leased and paid for the building. Since his death, the lease agreement has been terminated. The equipment in the clinic owned by Mrs. Fallon is available for lease or purchase by any in- terested party. The Mayor brought the committee up to date on what steps have been taken thus far by the City to bring new doctors to the area. Drs. Allen and Peterson, from Richfield, have indicated their interest in setting up practice in Salina and have been shown the clinic facilities, but at the present time have made no definite commit- ment. Dr. Throckmorton, also from Richfield, announced he would like to meet with the City Coun- cil. Mayor Peterson talked to Mr. Brewster, of the University of Utah Medical School personal relations department, concerning the possibility of getting new interns. He stated there wouldnt be any graduates until June of next year. However, he would keep him up to date on the possibility of doctors who might be interested in coming to Salina. The Mayor has also been in touch with the personal director of the Tuba City Medical School in Colorado. He 'was told there would be no graduates there until June, but would inform the interns of The the opening in Salina. personal director said the availability of doctors was better now than it had been for several years. Mayor Peterson, in directing the committee, regarding their position, said they should weigh all the possibilities in making their recommendations to the City Council and suggested they proceed with the upmost urgency.

Finally, President Lee said, "You now have the voting fran- chise, but prepare yourselves to do what the Lord has now placed upon you, this great responsibility. (Church News Deseret News, 81972, p. 3X In a message from the First Presidency 8572, they urged all church members who are citizens to study carefully the choices before them and encouraged them to become actively involved on behalf of those candidates and issues which they sincerely think will best secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. They further stated that none should be spectators in the democratic process in this nation whose divinely inspired Constitution must be maintained for the rights and protection of all men, according to just and holy principles. "We urge all citizens to vote in both the primary and general elections. In the exercise of this precious franchise, we hope that all will be guided by principles which they believe embrace honor and integrity and contribute to the moral sinew of this great nation." There is literature and information available on every political candidate. It is each citi- zens responsibility to become informed and then support candidates who stand for the principles and measures that will be for the best good of all the people and, therefore, for the best interests of the country as a whole. We cannot tell you who to vote for, but one thing we DO advocate heartily is that every adult citizen of the United States become informed of the issues at stake in the forthcoming election before pulling the lever In the voting booth. Never before have Americans faced so many clouded issues which will effect our lives the next four years and, perhaps, the next century. and Its your future mine.

The committee appointed are: A Thursday October 26, 1972 Salina, Sevier County Utah Year Approximately 500 students representing 13 high schools competed for trophies and other awards at the Snow College Annual FFA Field Day last Tuesday, October 17. The event is sponsored by the Agriculture Department and the Lazy S Club. The teams competing represented San Juan, Richfield, Gunnison, Emery, Manti, North Sevier, South Sevier, Delta, Orem, Payson, Springville, Wayne and Juab High schools. Students were able to compete in any one of six contests. Animals for the judging contests were provided by Maynard Sorensen, Axtell; Euray Vail Allred, Fountain Green; Junior and Nielson, Ephraim; and Craig Lundell, Payson; Gene, Tom and Howard Yardley, Gunnison and Eslie Christensen, Moroni. The North Sevier High School took several top award in different contests.

Salina Women programs in this area in order to make sure that these programs are in line with the long range goals and plans as well as the basic concerns of the people living here. Therefore, the Land Use Planning Division Office feels its primary concern must be to serve the needs and desires expressed by the commissioners and the people they represent. In developing a six county comprehensive plan, limited funding made it necessary to stretch the development of the comprehensive plan over a four year period. This was also felt to be necessary since the office would handle any local planning issues where requested to do so by the county commissioners. Some of the local planning matters we have been working on are the following: 1. A policy for subdivision review and approval. An information service 2. on factors a builder should consider when building on certain types of soils or in certain parts of the county. 3. A solid waste management program (Includes disposal of junk cars). 4. Incorporation procedures. 5. Provisional guidelines to help municipalities make decisions with reference to annexations, zoning changes and land use conflicts. It is our feeling that any regulations or policies should be established for the protection of the developer, the individual property owner and the legislative bodies that apply. These policies are not in any way meant to be a deterrent to development. Hopefully, these policies will prevent hardships before they occur, and make it possible to reach some agreement on services to be provided in the case of subdivisions. In future articles we will be discussing these five local planning matters as well as giving you a progress report on the six county comprehensive plan. Our office hours are from 8:30 to 5:00 P.M Monday through Friday.

Altogether, the revenuesharing compromise worked out by the Conference Committee will provide state and local units in Utah with $31 .4 million in new revenue this year. Approximately $20.9 million of this Federal money will be allocated to cities and counties and $10.4 million will go to the State Go- vernment. Previously, two differing versions of Federal revenue sharing had been passed one by the U. S.

Many hunters have been disappointed at the last minute upon learning that hunting unit permits are gone or their favorite hunting lands are closed entirely. To get hunting unit permits, sportsmen should make direct contact with sales agents or officers of specific units. Wildlife Resources offices have hunting unit information. Many hunting unit permits have already gone on sale. Lands newly closed to hunting may be found by checking the area a few days before the season opens. A visit with the landowner is recommended to learn of his posting plans. This courtesy visit is in order if one plans to hunt any private land, posted or not. states. Under the c ompromise agreed to by the House-Sena- te Conference Committee, each state was allowed to choose the more generous allocation under either the House or the Senate bills. This amount then was reduced by approximately 9 in order to keep the total cost of the program within an overall figure of $5.3 billion contained in both the House and Senate bills. Foundation analysts note that Utah, with along most low-inco- states will benefit by the compromise over what would have been provided in the House-pass- revenue ed sharing bill. In the original House bill, Utah would have received a total allocation of $29.0 million in 1972. The Senate bill would have given Utah about $34.5 million in Federal revenue-sharin- g As noted, the compromise will provide Utah with $31.4 million, or approximately 9 below the Senate version but 8 above the House funds. bill. The Foundation analysis also points out that in the original House-passbill, Utah was the only state ranking among the lower third in per capita income that would have received ed a per person revenue-sharin- g allocation above the U.S. average. Under the House-Senacompromise, however, fourteen of the seventeen states ranking among the lower third in per capita income will receive per person revenuesharing allocations above the U. S. average. Over the next five years, te more than $30 billion in Fe- deral revenue will be allocated to state and local units across the nation. Distributions in 1972 will total $5.3 billion. This sum will be gradually increased to $6.5 billion by 1976. Replacement For DDT Sought Bureau Banter With DDT being withdrawn from the market, a replacement is eagerly being sought for this famed pesticide. Now comes forth a promoter, Mr. Alan Becker, president of a company called Ecological Manufacturing Corporat- ion, with a claim for a substitute for DDT. Mr. Becker says this new product kills pests as effectively as DDT, but, unlike DDT, is biodegradable and almost to huThe National Obsermans. ver, a weekly newspaper,, checked some of his assertions and allegedly found many to be fabrications. We cant detail it all here. non-tox- ic According to the National Ob- server, the substance turns out to be methoxchor which is an old and infrequently used insecticide that was discovered about 30 years ago. All of the information submitted to EPA for registration was done prior ij. to 1950 and by other people. The substance is called Emtex or M T X . To further complicate the matter, Senator Bayh has reported the development to the U. S. Senate favorably. However, it appears that the USDA he cites favorable report is a release referring to use with dairy fly control. The point is simply that officialdom unwittingly helps to make factual and acceptable products that are far from legitimate. With all of the emotionalism over pesticides, it is apparent that this kind of official approval has done a great disservice to agriculture and consumers. Its not new. Its not even a good replacement for DDT. Time has proved that.
