There is also a concern about urged the Environmental Protection Agency to adopt a more the period of time between no- practical appraoch toward the clean air. plan for the Wasatch Front to stop bullying the nations cities with, threats of unreasonable regulations and restrictions. The Utahn made the comments in a statement prepared for the record of public hearings on the EPA proposal scheduled for this week ni Salt Lake City. The EPA plan, announced this month, calls for gasoline rationing, parking restrictions, special anti pollution devices on cars, increased auto inspections, and improvements in mass transit in Salt Lake City, Ogden, Provo.' While we all recognize need for some regulations to achieve clean air .standards set up by Congress, I dont see how Utahs metropolitan areas can live with restrictions in auto usage and parking, he said. This would have a very adverse effect on the economic health of our downtown areas. While there have been great improvements in mass transit in Utahs cities, we are not to the point where we can yet restrict the use of cars and offer a reasonable and reliable transportation alternative, he said. The EPA rejected an environmental protection plan submitted by the state of Utah earlier this year and substituted their own plan on July 6. This new federal plan is creating serious concern among Utahns and particularly among those living in cur largest business, educational and cultural centers, he said. Utah officials recognize the importance of establishing and enforcing environmental standards and they also recognize the importance of th EPA in this process but they resent having mandates thrust upon them by fed . t r tice and hearing. The EPA proposals were made on July 6, 1973 with notice that a public hearing would be held three weeks later on July 27. The first EPA proposal .goes into effect on Aug. 15, just 19 days after the hearing. John Green, the regional EPA Administrator, has said the EPA wants to hear public comments on the July 27 hearing, but one is compelled to wonder if the hearings are just a formality. Will the recommendations and criticsim offered at the hearings have any effect on the regulations that are now scheduled to go into effect less than three weeks after the hearings, he said.

Lower meat prices and vegetables which are plentiful in supply provide excellent nutritional value, according to heart association officials. Many of the less expensive cuts of meat available in Utah markets have high nutritional value and contain less cholesterol and fewer calories if properly trimmed and cooked, Dr. Alan F. Toronto, heart association president, advised Utah house- Instead of basting with drippings, keep meat moist by pouring bouillon or tomato juce over it.. Cook a day ahead of time the stews, boiled meat, soup stock or other dishes in which fat cook into the liquid. After the food has been refrigerated, the hard fat can be removed from the top. Make gravies after the fat has hardened and can be removed from the liquid. When a recipe calls for browning the meat first, try browning it under the broiler instead of a pan.

The heart association also suggested one boiled or poached egg for breakfast instead of two fried eggs and having an egg only three or four times a week instead of every day. With the present price of eggs both you and your budget will be healthier, he said. In cooking meat especially the less expensive cuts, he had the following suggestions.

Hursh, M.D. Consultant, National Dairy Council NUTRITION A LA CARTE Here are tips care of food. Keep fresh milk covered in the coldest part of your refrigerator. The dairy took special pains to bring it to you in good condition. The rest is up to you. Leftovers, except bread and baked goods, should be refrigerated promptly, covered, and used as soon as possible. Why do we need water? All of the bodys chemical processes take place in solution. Thus, water is essential. Some of the water our bodies use each day must be replaced because of water excreted. Several pints a day are used up by our kidneys, bowels, perspiration, and exhaled breath. Forming good eating habits is one of the foundations for good health that parents can pass along to their children. To help your preschooler eat well, serve small portions of food. Serve his food at medium temperature, neither too hot nor too cold. Finger foods, easy to handle, work well. Season food moderately. Unless the food you cat gives you all the nutrients you need you could suffer deficiency diseases.' These are not always easy to spot until they become obvious, such as scurvy, rickets or certain types of anemia. This is why it is so important to cat properly eve for-takin- ry day. Choose your foods from a wide variety of food stuffs. An effective way to interest young children in eating good lunches is to have them partici-pat- e in preparing food. Your older children may prefer to make their own lunches. The younger children can help you prepare some of the food. Whatever, with a little guidance from you, their interest in good nutrition should increase. Foods from animal sources contain high quality protein because they generally contain more essential amino acids. Plant foods, as a class, offer protein that is incomplete in some essential amino acids. Thats one reason nutritionists recommend that you combine both animal and vegetable foods in your meals. Research shows your body needs to have all the essential amino acids at one time. To properly use carbohydrates and obtain energy from them, you need vitamin Bl. Its real name is thiamin. Good sources of this vitamin include pork, liver, heart, kidney, whole grain or enriched breads and cereals, peas and beans, nuts and eggs. Some thiamin is available in other meats, and in vegetables. |
