Immediate Action Needed In Claiming Water Rights Utahs Senator Frank Absentee Ballots In County Clerks Office The requests for Absentee E. Moss the Upper Colorado River Basin lots are coming in quite who is sponsoring a water users seminar in Uintah County this week attracted water experts and the public from both Utah and Colorado. One of the experts to discuss matters pertaining to the water users was David L. Crandall, regional director of the Bureau of Reclamation who told water users of Utah and Colorado that they must take immediate action to reallocated water rights on families if energy development and other anticipated needs are to be met in the future. Mr. Crandall also said that in both states the surface water of the Upper Colorado Basin is already over appropriated. Assigned water rights already exceed not only the present waste use but also the long-terpotential water supply. There is no meaningful way (Continued on page 8) m Bal- Proposed Amendments Favored By Utah's Governor Rampton Adoption of all proposed con- stitutional amendments appearing on the general election ballot was favored by Gov. Calvin L. Rampton. The proposed amendments include propositions to provide a lieutenant governor, to authorize a state loan guarantee program to stimulate industry, to permit a uniform statewide fee on motor vehicles instead of varying property tax rates, and to allow formation of special service districts for several purposes with voter consent. The governor addressed himself particularly to the Utah Land-Us- e Act up for referendum, which he said is essential if we are going to control abuse of land in this state. If the state planner were to atempt to draw up a state land-us- e plan under present statutory authority, it could prove chaotic by placing all planning at the state level, he said. As for any proposed tax increases, Gov. Rampton said he doesnt see any in the offing with the possible exception of an adjustment of income tax rates. After passage of a revamped state income tax law to conform largely with federal income tax regulations, there was an $11 million shortfall of income to the state because new tax rates didnt bring as much money as anticipated, he explained. There seem to be two alternatives for Ihe legislature, the governor said: repeal the new state income tax law or adjust the rates to bring in more money. The governor was asked if state government was discrimin-inator- y in hiring of black or women Utah Highway Patrol troopers. Gov. Rampton said there is no discrimination, adding that he didn't know exactly why there is difficulty in recruiting blacks. Gov. Rampton said the prac- - ! ! i m Gov. Calvin L. Rampton tice of having job applicants in- dicate on an informational card what race they are is not for the purpose of exclusion. The questions were originally sought as part of federal forms, principally fpr census purposes, he said. If the state is going to be aked to report its minority hiring, then there has to be some type of record to show what the situation is, Gov. Rampton said. Hearings on automobile insurance rates have been set for January before the state insurance commissioner because a years experience in various statistical factors is needed to determine whether rates can be lowered, Gov. Rampton said. There will be competing factors to consider, he said. Tending to lower rates will be the adlt vent of insurance coupled with substantially reduced accidents and fatalities. Tending to increase, the governor explained, will be the inflationary trend raising medical and repair no-fau- costs. TODAYS EDITORIAL rapidly in the Clerks Office.
