With the announcement of the inclusion in the President's budget of only 2.7 million dollars for construction work on the Central Utah project, this writer, as well as many people in this area and throughout the state, could not help but be shocked and disappointed. After having battled for funds last year to actually begin work on the Bonneville unit of the project, backers were confident that the importance of the project was recognized, and that funds for accelerated construction plans would be provided in subsequent budgets. As the budget was being prepared for fiscal year 1967 (beginning July 1), the Bureau of Reclamation reported that they could beneficially use some $13 million in construction money for the year. This, they felt, would be an adeto the planning quate follow-u- p and construction works that will be started under the $3.5 million appropriation for the present fiscal year. it would appear to be impossible for water interests here to realize the goal of obtaining their rightful share of the Colorado River allocation. Before the project could be completed, and the water put to beneficial use, lower basin users could have enough backing to kill the whole deal. after approval is given Business licenses licenses, for issuance by the Duchesne Commission. issued to 5 places County TOTAL BUSINESS lict-n- these licenses issued this past month was fees collected for Only five business license! were issued the first month of the year to businesses operating in Duchesne county outride the limits of incorporated cities or towns.

Merrell, Duchesne County Clerk, whose office issues the Water is a critical commodity, area particularly in a semi-arri- d such as Utah. Without a promise of future water reserves, our chance of economic growth is almost nil. It would appear, from releases we have had from Utahs delegation to Washington, that these men are behind the project 100 per cent Perhaps the best thing that could be done here would be to give these representatives of Utah some ammunition to use when they start the battle to have funds included. With the bureau of the budget almost entirely overlooking this important reclamation project in their proposal to congress, must we assume that weve got to battle for evexy dollar of funds that is needed to push this project along on schedule? Letters and telegrams from individuals and groups, although in themselves carrying very little weight, can be used in quantity by our congressmen to show the feelings of the people of Utah towards these projects. True, there is still a good possibility that congress will recognize the importance of this project, as they did last year, and add a substantial amount to the appropriation. However, there is also a good possibility that each time a hassle is necessary over funds, that it might get harder and harder to muster backers of the program. With the rate of spending on the project that is apparently suggested by the president's budget, way to make our wants known is to start hollering. If we holler loud enough, maybe someone will hear us back in Washington, making them realize that perhaps some money could be put to good use inside of the United States, as well as in foreign countries. If we dont do some screaming, it appears that we can plan on waiting about 150 years for the final completion of the Central Utah Project. BIRTHS January 29, to Mr. and Mrs. Ted Beal, a boy.
