They are located at 2749 South 9100 West and the phone number The political candidates are speaking and shaking hands. Bands are playing, parades and receptions are all over the place. This is election year 1960. To elect a President, Vice President, members of Congress and State and local officials is a big challenge to every citizen. When November 8 arrives, the thoice will finally be in your hands. Your ballot will count as much as that of the President, the Governor, the butcher, baker and candlestickmaker. . . . Features of No. 1 Amendment No. 1 can do: Continue leadership and civil authority in executive, legislative and judicial positions. 2. Minimize the chance of unlawful assumption of authority. 3. Assure that government can function effectively in such an emergency. 4. Reestablish normal government functions and service. 5. Preserve civil government and minimize the possible need for martial law. Heres what Constitutional Amendment 1. , If approved, this amendment to Utah's constitution will authorize the Legislature to provide for lines of success to public office, k plus such other measures ai may be necessary to insure the operation of civil government and its services to you. post-attac- There will be two proposed constitutional amendments on your ballot November 8th. Be careful to distinguish between them. The first, as above, should be approved. The second should be defeated. Its original purpose is good, but it contains language inserted inadvertently and without realizing the consequences. If passed, it could open the door to serious problems. Originally, the amendment was intended to straighten out a technicality which imposed an unfair burden on widows and children of war dead. Under Utahs Constitution, property up to $3,000 in value owned by a disabled veteran or by the unmarried widow and minor orphans of a disabled veteran who died, is exempt from the state property tax. As it now stands on the ballot, however, the amendment contains another phrase whioh is highly dangerous. This phrase was proposed without committee hearing, just three days before the close of the 1959 Legislature, and finally passed in the hectic rush of the last day. is BY COPPER STATE HEADS OF NEW BUSINESS Are Mr. and Mrs. Morris E. Reid, above, who have purchased the Magna Photo Center. They also conduct a Studio in Midvale, and are welcomed to the community by local residents. With transactions completed this week, the Magna Photo Center has been sold to Morris E. Reid of Midvale, Utah. Mr. Reid has been an ardent Jover of photography since his Army days during World War II while he was stationed in India and Burma. After the war he attended Brigham Young University, before being called on a mission for the LDS Church in the Southern States. In 1951 he graduated from the New York Institute of Photography in New York City and returned to Utah to launch his career in photography. In 1954 he met and married Donetta Christensen of Manti, Utah. Other Work Given Mr. Reid has been working with Ramons Studio in Sugar-hous- e where they specialized in wedding pictures. He also has his own wedding studio in the Midvale area and plans to enlarge wedding facilities at the Magna Photo Center as he feels there is much need for this service. Mr. and Mrs. Reid have two children, ages 5 and 3. His wife plans to assist with the work at the Photo Center. property exempt The 1961 Legislature should make it a first order 'of business to get a legally sound amendment before the people to help Utahs relatively few war widows who remain unmarried. But certainly the risks involved in giving the Legislature power to grant tax exemptions are obvious enough to bring out a solid NO vote on Constitutional Amendment No. Two. 2968 ust Copper Chapter 11 of the Disabled American Veterans and Auxiliary will entertain members and representatives of the Stale Department on Sunday, November 6th at the Magna DAY Club.
