Utahs total state and local tax burden last year was second highest among the eight Mountain States, according to a study Just completed by Utah Foundation, private tax research organization. Preliminary figures for the 1966 fiscal year indicate that the total state and local tax burden in Utah amounted to $303.3 million and was equal to 12.96 of the state's total personal income. These figures reflect the tax adjustments made in Utah and other states by legislatures which met in 1965. The Foundation study shows that Utahs relative tax burden Increased substantially in 1966 as a result of the tax increases Imposed the previous year. In fiscal 1965, state and local units collected $267.2 million in taxes, an amount equal to 12.05 of personal income. By comparison, state and local taxes were equal to 12.14 of personal income in the Mounin the United States during the 1965 tain States and 11.11 fiscal year. During that year, Utah ranked 15th among the 50 states of the nation and sixth among the eight Mountain States by this measure. Foundation analysts point out that Utahs state and local tax structure is similar to the profile of the composite of the eight Mountain States. Utah, however, now derives a somewhat larger proportion of its tax revenue from income and production taxes than most other Mountain States. d The tax advantage of Utahs structure has been diminished during recent years, according to the report, by the fact that many other states have been forced to broaden their tax structures under the press of revenue neeus. Within the past two years, for example, five additional states Including neighboring Idaho, have adopted the number of states a general sales tax, bringing to forty-twemploying this tax. Unlike Utahs tax structure, which is similar to the composite of the region and the nation, Utahs expenditure pattern Is more nearly unique. Because of the large number of children and heavy school and college load, Utah must devote a much larger proportion of its total state and local expenditures to education (46.9) than do most other states. The proportion of total state and local spending going for education averaged 41.9 in the Mountain States and 37.5 for the broad-base- long-claime- d E. GS0 ft. from NW Cor. Sec.

In last weeks column when mentioned possibilities of friends and relatives of Kanab vve residents vacationing in this area we had several specific things in mind. Let us give one personal example. Neff and Mcrz Petersen and son, David, spent the Thanksgiving weekend with us here, Thursday morning while dinner was cooking we drove up Tom's Canyon to the end of the road and then hiked the short distance to the dripping springs. It was a beautiful walk. After Thanksgiving dinner we drove out to the Sand Dunes end then over the Mt. Carmel Highway to Zion., Canyon. Here we counted at least 65 deer and took another walk up to the narrows. Friday we drove to Wahweap, rented a boat, and rode up the lake to Bridge Canyon. We then hiked in to the Rainbow Bridge. A more thrilling experience can not be found anywhere for those who like such things. Saturday we drove south on the Kaibab to the locked gates of the Grand Canyon National Park, cut them a Christmas tree, saw a squirrel, and after a picnic lunch drove to Lees Ferry. Sunday noon after attending Sunday School and enjoying a dinner in a local restaurant we e ct er assessments at a regular meeting or at a special meeting called for that purpose; to elect officers for the ensuing year; and !o transact such further business as may properly come before said meeting. Your presence is desired in person or by proxy.

Their son David, who we made captain of our cruse to the Bridge, attends Granite High School. In 1959 this couple and three o'lirrs went with us on a boat trip down the Colorado River from Illta to Lees Ferry. We drove through Kanab at night on our way back to Salt Lake. Tlds was their only previous visit in this area. They came down at Thanksgiving time to visit us. Now they cant wait to get back. They want to take the boat trip from Lees Ferry to the dam. They want to visit the Buffalo herd in House Rock Valley. They want to spend some more time on the Kaibab and visit the North Rim. They want to see Paria, Pipe Spring, Johnsons Canyon, Grand Canyon National Monument, and many other places we have told them about. David wants to bring his Boy Scout troop and camp on the sand dunes and get on top of Rainbow Bridge. He also wants to see how Glen Canyon looked to his mother and dad from a rubber boat in 1930. 19, 1967 TT"1 Around Town A of pro-nore- Brown, Publisher Thursday, January NOTICE NOTICE TO WATER USERS SOUTHERN UTAH NEWS OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER UTAH NEWS, Kanab, Utah Sl 1 Mr. Green Tli is will, of courre, come. This might sound commercial. If it were the end product, what they spend in Kanab, we would just forget it. But it isnt. It is of a visit that fura ther cemented friendships and brought real enjoyment to these folks from up north. Multiply this several times by every family in Kanab and it would be an important factor in our community life. We realize, of course, that some people here have been doing this for most of their lives. But we arc continuously amazed by the number of our friends here that tell us that they themselves have not visited some of these places.
