BOX ELDER UTAH HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES DISTRICT BOUNDARIES between representative Splits Emery County The new reapportionment bill splits Emery County between three legislative districts instead of splitting Sanpete County three ways as proposed by the Legislative Reapportionment Committee. It was a novel procedural approach to avoid breaching a tacit agreement that the Senate and House accept each others reapportionment, saving face in the House and avoiding embarrassment in the Senate for those Republicans opposed to the huge district created in the vetoed bill.

Van de Kamp, in a written statement released by his office, also noted that Reagan lost $1 ,500 of his own money . The president is pleased with the outcome as far as Michael is concerned, said deputy White House news secretary Larry Speakes. The presidents son was under investigation for allegedly steering investors to Richard F. Carey, who is being investigated in the stock fraud case, according to documents filed with Los Angeles Municipal Court by the district attorneys office. Reagan, a businessman, met Carey through a mutual friend, according to the documents. Van de Kamp said Reagan may have violated a provision that would have required him to obtain a permit to deal as a securities agent but said such violations arent normally prosecuted when there is no evidence of personal profit or fraudulent intent. Van de Kamp said Reagan has also been cleared of any wrongdoing in connection with his sale of a part interest in his own company, Agricultural Energy Resources. of Edwards.
