Um whi lee Protest cut in library funds To the Editor: By now Utahns are becoming well aware of, cutbacks in services and funds provided by the federal government The termination of some poverty programs and the closing of a cumber of offices of the Forest Service and Department of the Interior are recent examples which affect all Utahns. But the public is not generally aware that other services are also being cut off. I refer specifically to the federal aid for libraries. - As a faculty member at Weber State College, I am concerned about the impact of these budget cuts on our college library.

SALT LAKE CITY CAU m vrdaYa;am our library has received approximately $35,000 each year from Title II funds and approximately $33,000 each year from Title VI funds. We have been told that the library will not receive more than $5,000 in the coming year. Furthermore, the proposed budget which President Nixon sent to Congress this week includes no funds for libraries at ail It is important to realize that this money was spent only for books, films, and other educational materials. I urge all Utahns to let our senators and congressmen know that we are concerned about the proper funding of libraries. They are an investment in Americas future. Scott Birkinshaw I am a citizen of Utah with several physical handicaps. I have lived here all my life. Eight years have been spent in a rest home which is a very miserable way of life for any young person, and a poor life for a young physically handicapped person like myself. Thanks to the very loving family that I have, I am now in a home in California which is geared to physically handicapped people. It was very hard to say to the friends I goodbye have known all my life. I was most unhappy about leaving, but really didnt have much choice. Utah has little to offer me as a handicapped person or any of my handicapped friends. We are ail discouraged because thei-- . isnt much of future to Utah for us after our parents pass away or become too ill to care for i us.

He is now a litgiven, perhaps my reasons for opposing his views should be given a like publicity that might possibly counteract some of his misleading influence. Nearly twenty years ago, he advised me to obtain a sterilization. Innocently I went to an OB doctor that I had known for years instead of the doctor who had been recommended. He assured me that sterilization was uncalled for, and though feeling that the beginning family that we had was much more than I could cope with, I went along with his decision. Later we had another child, which proved to be the turning point of my emotional life: I truly started to become emotionally mature and to enjoy my role as wife and mother and to find joy in living. tle past 4 years of age and a great joy to his brothers and sisters as well as his parents. I am ever so thankful that we had all the family we did. Not only for my sake, but also for the sakes of our children.
