Such a decision, to my wav of thinking, would be unwise in a number of wavs. ' First and foremost. I think the plan is obsolete for the purpose intended. As you may know, the original plan was drawn up to evacuate the city in the event of a nuclear expressattack by surrounding the city with a multi-lan- e way. With the present ratio of growth this city is experiencing anu the consideration of future tourist trade in the ski areas, would it not be wiser to follow the present route of Wasatch Boulevard, putting an interchange at the mouth of Little Cottonwood Canyon and extending the route south to include Big Cottonwood Canyon, and down through the area to encompass the whole east side White seriously disrupt the community is second only to this fact fact . I'm sure that our pioneer ancestors who came across the plains and built this area of out of the desert wouldn't want to see what they worked so hard to create destroyed. Why destroy an area of long established beautv when there is a more practical course through the sagebrush? If this original plan is not abandoned and this beautiful area is destroyed, all I can say is heaven help the future planRalph F .Jettie ning of this city. 1S73 Lincoln Lane City-Drap- Why Watergate wont help the Democrats To the party for they were certainly Editor: is likely Watergate will reveal more criminal Republican political activity, but I fail to m'( where it will enhance tne image of the Democratic It responsible into office. for putting Nixon developed a deep dislike for Nixon during Eisenhower's second election campaign and 1 had no desire to vote for him as the candidate for President However.

Should rate structures be inverted for this sociological reason? e recent study reported in Electrical World indicates that inverting an electric rate A bottom of the barrel.

The real problem is the need for additional taxes because of waste of budgets and because in our government our officials are unable to find the tax ways to reduce burden. Mr. Bakers attempt to collect taxes from church organizations is not because the law requires it. but indicates he is covering up for the continual of budgets by our elected officials. g p properties were e as- I was evident that sessed?

Theron Smith 1543 Carterville Road Provo v g witk no minimum balance required After listening to TV o the Watergate affair, it is clear that a group of elect d people have certainly cooked up a rotten pie to feed to the American public.

He was interested in small demonstrations." In fact, it seems he was most interested in everything but tfie bugging of the building. Hogwash! He was interested. He was interested enough m what the press was reporting to make the statement that thev would be taken care of" after the election as well as others who were getting into the way as the pie took shape. I seem ho recall reading that many poverty programs were cut out because there was no "allotment of money. but a mere SI million to take care of the needy fellows in jail was no problem." I also seem to recall hearing a great voice in the land proclaiming about the amnesty problems to deserters. They must be punished. Let us not make heroes of these who have shirked their duty. In light of all that has happened, and if Mr. President can so err. is it unreasonable to assume that a frightened, confused kid of 20 years of age can also err? When history, has been written, will it not prove perhaps that the real heroes are those who refuse to take up arms and go to distant lands to kill, bum and destroy? There is for a fact a commandment which states to us. Thou shalt not kill." " I offer a suggestion: and let us forgive: Impeach Nixon Y. or grant amnesty Zettie Garcia Tooele ,. Stop cruelty to animals cruel to be almost unbelieve- abie. To the Editor: There seems to be a lot of cruelties going on in this counor maybe they try of late have just come to light. What we need in this land is someone with courage and backbone to protect our poor dumb animals from these inhuman people. What are our humane societies for. anyway? I refer particularly to animals.
