He estimated that only 25 percent of the scales currently in operation can be changed to compute at higher prices. A new scale for a checkstand would cost between $450 and $581, indicating a sizeable investment for a store with 4 checkstands. A combination meat wrapper and scales would cost between $5,000 and $10,000 depending on the model. Meldrum believes the grocers in rural areas will be hurt the most since he probably has an old scale and couldn't convert it to higher computations because parts are no longer made for that model. The grocer might not sell much meat, but he has to have a scale and to replace it would be a major investment for him. Francis emphasized that having scales that compute prices according to the law not only benefits the consumer, but benefits the retailer since he is not giving away his merchandise and the consumer is getting exactly what he wants for the price he intended to pay.

No '''t Maror Jake Garn, who heads the City Water Depart. ment, said the dispute was settled out of court after both parties reached a compromise. The mayor said the water rights are "worth hundreds of thousands of dollars" over a period of years. In February 1964, Salt Lake City sued to determine the ownership of water flowing from the mine company's workings in Park City. The city claimed all the waters from Spiro Tunnel are "naturally tributary" to the Big Cottonwood Creek and therefore belong to the city. The Third District Court ruled in favor of the mine company, but later the Utah Supreme Court reversed the decision and remanded the case to the district court. Garn said, "Thousands of dollars" were spent on legal fee3 and both decided to compromise out of court. Basically, Salt Lake City will get 60 percent of all the water flowing through Spiro Tunnel above a certain level specified in the agreeement.

Francis said an emergency has ariseti because purchase of new scales is economically tough on small gocerymen and many of the scales cannot be converted to compute higher prices. Fred W.

He urged the association to support the regulation at the hearing. Fresh mushrooms and finger avocados are two of the priducts priced per pound more than ordinary grocery stores scales compute, Francis said, but the biggest problem is in the meat department where .prices have reached nearly $3 per pound on some items.
