Nwr fo There are so many things going on this week, that we hardly know where to turn, or where to begin. By the time Saturday night comes, we'll know that it has been a full week. Things are getting in readiness for the open house at the Chamber office, and for sale in town this the weekend. Also there is some controversy arising concerning the Chamber meeting Thursday evening at which time the Post Office department is to explain the workings of city delivery". We've already been accused, by two different parties, of being "for" city delivery, and also "against" city delivery. Actually, our position is that we would like to see the final decision based on what the majority of the people want, and what would best serve the area. There are still a lot of questions concerning city delivery. What type of boxes are required, where and how often will they be placed, and what affect will it have on the load at the post office? We would hope that most of these questions can be answered Thursday evening (8 p.m. at the Moon Lake Building). Another function this week that looms as important is the charter banquet for the Roosevelt Kiwanis Club. It will be held at Bottle Hollow Resort Saturday, evening. The kiwanis group is being reactivated, after having been defunct for several years, and now has more than 20 members. They anticipate that some 75 to 100 people will be present for the affair. We've noted with interest the jockeying for position of various groups on both sides of the Central Utah Project issue. We've met with several people during the past few weeks, some wanting the project held up pending a determination as to whether we will have enought water for our needs here, and others who feel that there has already been loo much delay. We can't help but sympathize with both sides. We know the importance of water in our future. Without it we cannot continue to grow, and face a bleak outlook for adequate supply. But on the olherhand, we doubt that stopping the Central Utah Project is the answer to the problem. Certainly if the water is not developed here, it will go elsewhere. But if water is created under the CUP, it would appear that we would have a much belter chance of utilizing it than if it were going down the river to California. But there are other problems. Perhaps the costs may be too great? And maybe it's too far in the future to do us any good? For that reason, we feel confident that every effort should be taken to make available additional culinary supplies to fill this time gap. we can see no reason for But killing the Central Utah Project. If we already have water filings sufficient to water system, complete a county-wid- e the completion of the project would have no affect on the culinary water supply. If we do have sufficient water now, the only way we can get it is to create additional (through storage under CUP). If we just kill the project, we still don't have the water. Oh well, the controversy is still going on. But the sad part is that controversy adds fuel to the fire which is already causing much delay. Although funds are now released for a new start, there is still a long way to go. And every year we delay, the mats aky rocket U In doing so, the mayor added his congralulatkins to the group in obtaining a permanent office, and urged support of the open house to be held throughout the day Thursday al the new building. The proclamation cited the chamber for their efforts in furthering the community, building unity among cities of the Basin, creating a more favorable image for the city, and the stimulation of economic growth. It also urged support of the rhamber by all businesses, professional people and individuals interested in the future of Roosevelt City. The open house at the Chamber office will begin at 10 a.m. and continue through 4 p.m. An invitation is extended to residents or the area to visit the new facilities, located al 235 South Main. A special "opening" ceremony is planned for 11 a.m., at which time city and chamber officials will participate in ribbon rutting riles. Radio Station KVEL will be on hand to cover the opening, and will broadcast from the office throughout the day Thursday.
