The men have divided the city into service organizations, schools, business organizations and outlying communities and the women are now Individual Important In Fight to Save Environment dividing the city into residential areas.

In addition to action to improve thevoluntary environment he proposed that consideration be given to a two pronged legislative program that will force us to motivate our self interest m new directions. First would be the enactment of a uniform system of workable environmental standards relating to air, water and land use, requiring mandatory environmental improvements by everyone and backed up by effective enforcement machinery and stiff penalties. Second, creation of an inventory of imaginative incentives to encourage everyone to undertake involuntary environmental improvements. The success of this kind of program will largely depend on how skillfully the concepts of reward and punishment were used in combination. In answer to the question of Who is going to bear the cost of getting the natural environment into some kind of shape, Mr. Maurice said, The cost is going to hit us as increased tax and we are going to have to pay more for goods and services. Business enterprises can absorb the cost of pollution control programs to the extent that such programs result in internal opUnfortuerating efficiencies. at time tax the present nately, incentives are hardly worth mentioning and the actual cost of industrial pollution control programs far exceeds the value of any operating efficiencies they produce. Keep in mind that a company must remain competitive and it must generate a reasonable profit if it is going to survive. Sometimes I think it is easier to get a corporation to respond to the natural environment than it is to get an individual to respond to the same responsibilities. New Unemployment Increases Noted Most employment security offices in northern Utah registered increases in new unemployment (initial claims for unemployment benefits) with the increase for the week ended April 24 tied directly to stormy weather, the employment security office. The total was 975 compared to 888 for the week of April 17. Continuing claims declined by 725 to 10,071 for the week of April 24, a disappointing decline for this time of year, but also a result of rain and snow. The total is 3.42 percent of all workers covered by state and federal unemployment insurance laws, compared to 3.34 percent' a year ago. The Utah insured unemployed rate is appreciably below the nations rate of 4.5 percent. Page Five City Auditor Says More Money Needed to Increase Salaries (Continued from page 1) Salaries for Salt Lake City and County work forces should be comparable, county commissioners agreed this week after a locked door session with personnel heads. But city and county officials emphasized pay differences Salt Lake County budgeted $15 million for salaries this year compared with $11.2 million set aside by the city could not be wiped out in a single adjustment. Commissioners William Dunn and Philip R. Blomquist endorsed the proposal made by the Salt Lake City Commission last wek, when it announced plans for $2.1 million in pay raises, bringing next years salary budget to $13.3 million. Finance Commissioner Ralph Y. McClure, who attended the secret session but hot the regular meeting that followed it; said he feels city and county employees should be on a single pay schedule. Mr. McClure also emphasized he will not vote for any pay raises until he is assured money can be raised without a tax1 Salt Lake Teenagers to g Compete in Safe-drivin- Some 400 Salt Lake teenagers will compete Saturday, May 8, in a safe driving road rally sponsored by the Great Salt Lake Council Explorer Division. Both girls and boys of Explorer age from 14 to 20 will participate in the event that pits winners of various district rallies. The youngsters will compete for three top awards. The safe driving rally, according to Explorer officials, is a form of competition in which teams leave a starting point at a carefully recorded time and follow a relatively complicated route to. a finishing point. Explorer spokesmen also said that the rally is not a race, but a test of good driving while following an unrehearsed route and keeping to a time schedule. Three Explorer age youth and an adult will make up each team. In addition to the driver, each car will have an observer who follows the route outline and directs the driver and navigator who strives to keep the team at the proper place at the right time. The route will cover 100 to 120 miles and will take each team from 4 to 5 hours to complete. Starting point will be the Utah Technical College on Redwood Road in Salt Lake City. Winners of the Salt Lake Council rally will advance to a statewide competition to be conducted in September and will be eligible to participate in the Grand National Safe Driving Road Rally held in Detroit.
