In the beginning of the body of each Proposition we have set forth the Ballot Title of the Proposition as it will appear on the General Election Ballot on November 5, 1968. Because of the very serious nature of these Propositions which your State Legislature has caused to be placed before you, I urge that each of you study the text of the Propositions in full. I urge you to consult with your .friends, neighbors and local civic leaders in order that you may gain all information necessary to render a just and wise decision. i ST. GEORGE Section 2.

An analysis of the incumbents voting record shows he is a cors'stent NO voter, and that he is constantly opposed to the strong state administration of Governor Rarmton. I believe Utah needs a strong voice in the congress, a voice which will be compatible with Governor Rampton and the State of Utah, Mr. Caughan said. He pointed out that Utah, alone of the cencerned states, received nothing in the recent decision concerning the Colorado River projects. When water is so vital to every Utahns interest, it is inconceivable that we should not play an important role in the further development of the Colorado River," he noted.
