The book is filled with pages of them. 196 forms of freight transport, principally motor trucks, have garnered a share of freight traffic, railroads should be able to hold their own in the years ahead. Much intercity freight volume made up of coal, grain, autos, chemicals, and piggyback trailers is only adaptable to railroad shipment. And energy scenario focuses on a switch to coal from less reliable oil and natural gas, rail unit trains will supply a nearly continuous flow of coal from mines to markets. ; WITH SOME 1.6 million freight cars in service or available last year, this phase of railroading is far from dormant. In the years ahead, it is expected that rail mergers, facility rehabilitation, and a trend toward deregulation could result in a stronger railroad transportation industry. Since it would appear that demand for freight services from the majority of railroad companies will continue strong, it should follow that order for rail equipment will remain in a healthy stance. & MS The final agreement upon which the judge closed the case will not halt any federal aid projects.

ACCORDING to Digest, a whole chicken costs just over 70 cents a pound, compared to the $1.60 or more per pound that hamburger commands. And for nutritions sake, a half chicken breast supplies 50 percent of our daily protein and amino acids requirements plus lots of essential vitamins, and weighs in at only about 160 calories. Chicken is also highly digestible, and low in both cholesterol and salt. Small wonder, says the Digest ar- -' tide, that chicken consumption in the U.S. will reach some 17 birds for each man, woman and child this year.

The single' ' Glean Air And Industry Can Go Hand In Hand With A Little Cooperation "Many times clean air and industry dont go hand in hand, but with a little cooperation, industry can keep itself viable and help achieve air quality at the same time, a Utah Department of Health official said. ALVIN E. Rickers, director, Bureau of Air Quality, explained that the Bureau of Air Quality is working with industry to meet air quality standardsand goals set up by the Air Conservation Act and the Federal Clean Air Act. Although pollution reduction figures for 1978 arent yet complete, I believe were making progress toward our Rickers stated, explaining that the Clean Air Act required that each state draft a plan to reduce pollution to establish standards by 1982. . THE STANDARDS outlined in the state plan are geared to protect the weakest segments of the population, including the young and those with lung and cardiac problems, and allow them to live comfortably, according to Rickers. In order to meet the goals and insure that life is comfortable for all Utahns, weve developed a strategy of measuring pollutants in the air to find out where the problems are. And were working with industry to reduce pollution emitted, he said, noting that air quality on the west side of the Salt Lake Valley has improved greatly since new equipment has been installed in the areas industry. ALTHOUGH cases I the in state to monitor pollution He explained that his office has nothing to do with the zoning or location of industry, but deals only with making sure that proposed industry levels.

In times of high concentration, local industry cooperates by reducing or temporarily stopping emission of pollutants.

There is a total of 16 monitoring stations throughout the TO cut down the growth time of a marketable chicken from 13 weeks to 7 in the last 25 years.
