I feel we will be failing in our responsibility to provide enjoy 1 merit to a significant segment of 2 the people if we remove accommodations, Rep. Howe tes- tified.

Springdale and Mount Carmel do not hae enough accommodations. m-i- said. , He also added that surrounding communities and the park sen ice would work together to improve accommodations inside and outside the park. Rep. Howe also said he is concerned over the proposed mass transit system within Zions Park. I would not like to see this proposed mass transit system used as a complete replacement for access io ihe park by visitors m their own cars," he said. He also said he had reservations about the proposed 12,120 acres designated as a wilderness area because it severely limits visitor - Elderly Facing Poverty Through Job Stigmas H access. Counselor Assails I; School Textbooks ; t Sen Frank E. Moss, D Utah, was represented at the hearing by Yorgenson, an administrative assistant, who read a statment by the senator agreeing with Rep. Howes stand. Utah's senior senator said he would work for a law which would keep overnight facilities wi'hm the park. He said the National Park Service keens forgetting the National Parks are for the people. Mayors of Cedar City. St. George and representatives of civic service organizations all opposed the park service plan. One elected official, however, agreed with the plan. Howard Smith, town board president of Springdale, Washington County, said his community would and could provide overnight facil'ties to take care of tourists who couldnt stay in the park. Representatives of environmental protection organizations agreed with the Park Senvce proposal, but felt it didnt go far enough. A lodge should be removed from the park, wilderness area expanded and more trails to higher elevations constructed, they said Saturdays hearing in the parks visitors center and was conducted by Dr. John Hunt, assistant dean of students at Utah State University, Logon, and regional advtor for the National Path Sei vice. The next hearing on the proposal will be Monday at 7.30 p m. in the Kane County Courthouse in Kanab.

A veleian educator with 30 experience, Mr. Cox points out ihat because of school poltcy he had to retire even though he was Li peifut ph iicJl condition, had letters supporting his performance and wanted tc continue w working. 7 In my case particularly, the man" datory retirement really presented a hardship. My income was cut in half; yet I still had eight children to support. At retirement J had thice in public school, three in college and one in graduate school. Starting Pay . Retirement income just wasnt adequate to keep my family going. And when I went looking for work, I found what few job were available would only pay starting pay, not nearly enough again to keep my family go'ng, he said. Since then, Mr. Cox says he said he has had time to really examine the discriminatory retirement policies. th indiviHiuil uHvh'f rwvMjira wants it or not, is retirement based on age (65 alone, with no consideration given to health, productivity, socal service to society or family needs. In addition, individuals with far less experience ar given preference over persons age 65 or older, he said. lie pointed out also that neither state not fedei al law give any protection against job discrimination to a person over 65 but only persons between thd ages of 40 and 65. School Principals, Continued from Page B- -l jobs. There are aiso group sessions for older individuals to help them prepare for r. w jobs or reentry into the job world. "There i.i also the problem that the older worker may be too skilled. We had one man who moved to Utah after having an outstanding career in California lie got turned down on every interview because he was too qualified. . Feel Threatened "I think sometimes the younger worker or even the interviewer may feel threatened by the older worker, he explained. He predicted that not too far down th road there will be more older workers. "They will have to work economics will force them to do it, he said. Robert J. Utzinger, local director of the American Association of Retired Person., said his organization has long fought against mandatory retirement at any age. Retirement should be an individual thing, geared to what the individual wants to do. It just isnt plausible to Ihink that at age 65 evervone is recdv tn retire. Some might be ready at 45; others at 80. They should have that freedom, he said. " Perfectly Capable The problem is, he explained, that too many people are trying to decide things for the elderly, when the elderly are perfectly capable of making their own decisions. A.
