Show THE SALT LAKE TIMES Six Utah Counties Eligible for Loans Six Utah counties have been declared eligible for emergency loans from the Farmers Home Administration according to Sen. Frank E. Moss of Utah. The declaration came from Agriculture Secretary Arville Freeman, who was asked by Senator Moss to keep close contact with Agriculture representatives in Utah after three nights of severe frost crippled the Utah industry in the several counties. Sen. Moss said the counties included are Salt Lake, Weber, Utah, Davis, Box Elder, and Cache. Individual farmers whose fruit trees have been damaged will receive emergency loans in the 1965 growing season and for 1966. Utah Guard Dates Practice Battles on apple, pear and sour cherry trees, but no indication as yet that the trees had been killed. Alfalfa crops have been cut to the ground by the frost but appear in some cases to be coming back. Sen. Moss said that for the present time Utah will not be declared a disaster area by the President, since no community facilities have been destroyed. The emergency loans will assist individual farmers, however. Sen. Moss said that in event it is discovered that fruit trees in the six counties have been killed, special assistance under the Agriculture Conservation practices program will replace trees. This program will also assist in helping to replace livestock feed which might have been destroyed by the frost.

Whats more, I agree, I dont like it either. In the case of Utah, the legislation just is not needed. On the other hand, it would be a big handicap to many Utah sportsmen, particularly those who have a hobby of trading iin firearms and ammunition. This is an administration, bill. The motives are the best. Its chief aim is to bring the criminal gun traffic under control, by putting a tight lid on the mail order sales of weapons and by outlawing the sales of hand arms in any state to residents of other states. But it goes too far in asking an annual license of $100 fee for anyone who trades in guns. services provided. has other unsavory implicaHarry Sneed, United Fund-Lab- It tions.

The subcommittee just might take the same stand this year. Such wheeling agreements are already working handsomely in other regions, including Upper Colorado River Basin. The same approcah will work on BPA power, and duplication of costly transmission lines will be averted, if the agency and the power companies can get together as the House asked them to do. The proposed Department of Housing and Urban Development is another target of heavy mail. Here again I part company with the administration. In my earlier House terms, I voted against this proposal. I still oppose it. Several federal departments already focus vast resources on the solutions of urban problems. They are doing a good job. Pulling urban programs into one department wont necessarily improve them. In fact, it could hurt them. The urban problems are too complex and too diverse to be tied into one organizational package. They will always cut across departmental boundaries. PBX Club of s. L. To Install Officers Officers of Salt Lake City Club will be installed June 8 at at meeting at Andys Smorgasbord.
