Show Utah ValftjjjTrjde Fair will be Held at b V Jet. 1, 2 in Utah Each community Valley will have an important Valley part to play in the Utah Trade Fair, October 1 and 2, and each stands to reap worthwhile benefits from it, David Bigler, chairman of the Fair, said today. When the expected thousands of visitors pour into the valley to see the fair at the BYU Fieldhouse in Provo, the entire valley will be on display. Growth of present industries and establishment of new industries, is one of the primary objectives of the f5.r, he said. It is hoped that these objectives will bear fruit after the visitors see the fair. He pointed out that about 100 industrialists and businessmen from outside Utah Valley are being invited to be guests at the fair and at a businessmens luncheon on October 2. They will also be hested at Mexico football the BYU-New of these dollars to remain in the valley, he said. In light of this, Dean Armin J. Hill of BYU, chairman of the exhibits committee, urged that each community have displays of their representative industries at the fair. Mr. Bigler said that the retail merchants in the valley will have an excellent opportunity for special promotions during the game the night of October 2. If the valley and all its potential and its stability can be impressed upon these people, there is a chance that some new economic harvest can come our way, Mr. Bigler said. In addition to showing the valley to the visitors, the fair will be an to residents here, he said. If more of the dollars earned here would remain here, the valley economy would receive a tremendous shot in the arm. Through the fair, and its related promotions, perhaps we can encourage more eye-open- er fair. The thousands of persons pouring into the valley for the fair will be looking for services and all sorts of goods, he said, The success of the local merchants will depend on the Irrigation Season effort they put into Trade Fair connected promotions." to Close Oct. 3rd The executive committee for Ail water users of Straw- the fair will meet Thursday berry High Line water are noon at the Riverside Country notified that the irrigation Club, Provo, to discuss proseason will close Oct. 3. gress on the event and what All orders for water should materials will be needed for be in the office community promotions.

Resident Has Half-Acr- e of National Parkland lo Himself Utah gained its resident on September 24 of this year but the states Mr. Million will have plenty of room to roam in, unlike residents of more populous seaboard states. Statisticians point 'out that Utahs boundaries enclose 84,916 square miles of territory, meaning that the newest resident of the state can view, roam and otherwise enjoy 54,316,240 acres of mountains, valleys, deserts, irrigated croplands, lakes and streams. Calculating further, the statisticians at Utahs State Capitol point out that if Mr. Million were to share and share alike with his 999,999 neighbors, he would have an allotment of 54 acres all to himself. Stated in other terms, there are just 11.77 Utahns per square mile fewer than a dozen per square mile to be precise, a far cry from sectors of the nation in which s and subways, highrise apartments seemingly stack a dozen transit riders, highway users and apartment dwellers in a square foot of living space. From the recreation standpoint, Utahs millionth resident finds himself owning his own half-acr- e of national parkland. With establishment this year of the new 257,000 acre Canyon-land- s National Park in southeastern Utah, the state now has 551,929 acres of national parks, national monuments and national historic sites within its borders. These include famed Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park and Arches National Monument. Utahs Mr. Million" has eight acres of his own" forestland available statistically . giving him ample speaking room for hunting, skiing, camping, fishing and picnicking if he desires. Fully 8,000,000 acres of national forests lie within the states borders, including the Wasatch National Forest, famed for the ski resorts of Alta and Brighton, the Cache and Uinta National Forests which include widely known lakes and trout streams, and the Manti-Lasa- l and Fishlake National Forests in which deer hunting vies with angling as a lure. super-highway- Travel and construction in Utah go hand in hand. Traditional tourist attractions like the Eagle Gate and Beehive House stand in the shadow of impressive construction, such as the new tt Copper Building. Ken-neco- Utah Tourist & Publicity Council Aids in Utah's Growth With a million residents, Utah marks a milestone in growth, evident in the heavy construction activity that is currently underway throughout the tate. Important in Utahs growth is the travel and recreation industry supported by the efforts of the Utah Tourist and Publicity Council and local communities. An important phase of the councils operation is national publicity. Stories and pictures covering the Different World of Utah; the seasonal changes, the activities and attractions are sent regularly to newspapers around the country, to magazines and to special correspondents. Working with the editorial departments of 6uch national travel magazines as Holiday, Motorland, Sunset, Clipper and Westways, the Tourist Council has produced feature articles and cover stories Fall Foliage U-To- about Utah which are bringing tremendous response. The Council works also in close cooperation with organizations throughout the state to promote more tourist traffic and thus more business. Currently, Ski Utah Associates is working with the Council in the preparation of a new Utah ski movie and resort fact folder. A promotional program in cooperation with the Utah State Motel Association is now underway in connection with the T.R.I.P. (Travel - Recreation -- Improvement-Program) activi- ties. This season, a new nationally syndicated half-hou- r television program entitled AMERICA, produced by Jack Douglas of I Search For Adventure fame, will feature Utah in one of its programs through cooperative efforts with the Tourist and PublicityCouncil. ur Highlights northeastern Utah This week, the feature area series will center in the northeastern section of the atate.

Drive for New Industry Part of Statewide Effort SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH Founded 117 years ago by Mormon pioneers seeking to build a economy based upon agriculture and home-spu- n industry, the state of Utah greets its resident September 24th. If Utahs Mr. Million is typical of other newcomers who have recently streamed into the state by the thousands, he will seek and find a job in indus-trie- s such as steelmaking, chemicals, electronics, machinery manufacture, garment making and missiles that have given the state a new look and a new outlook during the past decade. Federal census figures issued r in placed Utahs population at 992,000 as of July 1, a gain of more than 100,000 since 1960. Statisticians tallying births, deaths, in the 84,916 and square miles of mountains, valleys and deserts comprising the Beehive state the exact moment when Utah will reach and pass the 1,000,000 population figure can not be ascertained precisely. However, a committee of businessmen appointed by Governor George D. Clyde hopeof September fully set mid-da- y 24 as the date and hour. At that time they hope to select and greet Utahs Mr. Million fashion at Salt Lake's in jet-ag- e airport, after which the selectee for this signal honor will be feted by local Kiwanians, presented with a wealth of gifts at the Utah State Fair, and taken on a tour of the states scenic national parks and resort areas. Statisticians, historians, politicians, and even are having something of a field day awaiting the arrival of Mr. Million. Population projections are being cited indicating that, while the millionth Utahn arrived 117 years after the first sizeable influx of white settlers, the state will have well over 1.500.00 residents in 1989, and should have its citizen long before the year 2,0u0 rolls round. It is being pointed out that Utah, in passing Maine as the 37th most populous state in the nation, showed an 11.4 percent gain in its headcount, with much of that healthy increase based upon the states high birth rate. The Salt Lake City metropolitan area, including new suburbs along the western flank of the snowtipped Utah Rockies, now rates as the rations fiftieth largest; total personal income in Utah rose 84 in Utah increase compared with a 62 for the whole nation in the past decade; Utahs personal income topped $2,133,000,000 the past year and virtually all other vital statistics show an upward curve, including bank deposits and Federal taxes. song-write- Pro Utah Formed Perhaps more important than Mr. Million statistics and ceremonies is the new industrial climate and attitude towards industry in all corners of a state in which a liking for isolation and an old way of life were long apparent. Tired of exporting the states best brains and young manpower to regions in which industry flourished and seeking to insure at least 10.000 new jobs annually to meet growth forecasts topflight industrial and business leaders this summer set up an organization called Pro Utah.

Freeport Value Cited Primarily, Utah is gaining new industrial stature and attracting attention as a warehousing and distribution center both from its role as a marketplace for 1,000,000 residents in (plus another areas of related marketing nearby Nevada, Idaho and Colorado) and due to the attractions its abundance of raw materials and basic industry hold for fabricators. UJ3. Steel Corporations integrated steel plant near Provo, originally established to meet west coast World War II needs, now turns out some 2,300,000 ingot tons annually from furnaces and mills fed by Utah iron ore and coal. Kennecott Coppers Utah Copper Division, normally producing some 22 of the nations supply of copper, is engaged in a multimillion dollar expansion and modernization program. While past growth of fabricating linked to these basic industries has been too slow for some Utahns, firms such as Eimco, manufacturing mine machines, filters and tractors; Western Laundry Press with a world market for commercial laundry equipment; Christiansen Diamond Bit, making minefield and petroleum industry drills, and assorted fabricators of pipe, plate and tanks have been prospering in Utah. Copper fabricators have been slow to arrive, but the electronics industry is growing, a new chemical fertilizer industry based upon the ready availability of phosphates, potash and acids is burgeoning, and the missile industry although conhit by contract cutbacks tinues, to employ some 10,000 men and women at plants operated by Thiokol, Boeing, Hercules, Sperry, Litton and others chiefly engaged in output of the Minuteman and other solid-fuele- d weapons.

Winter wheat growers in Utah County who are interested in taking part in the 1965 wheat program have only one signup period, according to Claude Hunting, Chairman of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee. The signup period extends through Friday, October 2. Signing up now will put a farmer into the program ancj will also permit him to change his intentions during the signup period for the feed grain program next February or March. This provision is especially important for those wheat growers who intend to use the overseeding privilege or to participate in the wheat program and the feed grain program and use the substitution privilege. Those who sign up to use the provision of the wheat program may overseed their farm allotments by up to 50. By storing the excess wheat under bond and meeting other program provisions, these producers become eligible for certificates and price support. For those who intend to use the substitution privilege and sign up for both the wheat and feed grain programs, failure to enter the wheat program now will make it impossible for them to become participants in both programs, said the Chairman. County office personnel will be at Strawberry Highline Canal Co., Thursday, September 24, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. to explain and take signups for the 1965 wheat program. ........
