VI County Has 36 Agencies Iii Operation Traveling Troupe For Paving Local Airport Cache County Commission ers approved a contract with Bonneville Paving Co. of Ida ho Falls Tuesday to pave a runway and taxiway at the Logan-Cach-e Airport for Commissioners accepted Bonneville Paving's bid over an offer by Gibbons & Reed Construction Co. of Salt Lake City to do the job for $18,277. They pointed out that even though Gibbons & Reed is eli gible as a Utah firm for a five per cent preference, this would not be enough to make up the difference of $1,714 in bids. Melvin Empey, president and general manager of Bonneville Paving, appeared at the commission meeting to point to his firm's experience in a number of airport paving projects. Construction is expected to be completed in 30 days. The Utah Aeronautics Commission is paying half the cost up to $10,000, while the city and county share the remainder. Two Fires Reported Two fires were reported this week by the Preston fire de- partment. at the Joe farm in Banida One was Chris-tense- n Mon- day evening. According to the fire department, an excess amount of oil in the firebox of the furnace ignited and threatened the house.

There was no damage except to the stack. Balladiers Return From Orient Trip The USU Balladiers, three students from and one who formerly liv ed in Franklin, returned from their USO sponsored tour of the Orient last week. The musical group has now broken up, with each going their separate ways. Kaye Anderson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Anderson, is now teaching in the Granite school district in Salt Lake City; Douglas Brenchley, son of Mr. and Mrs. Reed Brenchley, is going to teach in California. Robert Fackrell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lynn Fackrell, will leave Monday to begin an Melva Lucherini, former residents of Franklin, will go on active duty with the U.S. Air Force.

How many, by way have other of comparison, communities across the country set up for that purpose? According to a special survey conducted by the Census Bureau, more agencies are used locally to carry on the business of government than is the case in most areas. The facts and figures are rebrought out in a port released by the Department of Commerce under the title "1967 Census of Govern ments." It is the first such study since 1962. They are conducted every five years to determine what it takes, in number and makeup of governmental units, to provide residents of each area with school services, water supply, police and fire protection, sanitation, health and welfare needs and the various other required services. In Cache county, it is are shown, these functions carried on through 36 governmental bodies, 32 of which have property-taxinpowers. In 1962 the number was 37. A breakdown of the total reveals that there are 19 muniin the cipal governments county, no township govern ments, two independent schco' districts, the county government and 14 special districts. In terms of population, the number of these public agen cies is above that found in most localities, the survey shows. Locally, there is one such agency for every 1,140 460-pa- ge LDS mission in California.

This provision, Mr. Maughan said, will be placed in effect immediately by the Farmers Home Administration. A applicant will be required to pay a minimum of one percent interest on his home loan, with the government making up the rest. The amount of actual aid will depend on the family's annual income and size. The Farmers Home Administration said a family receiving an income of $3,000 a year and having five children could apply for an $8,000 home loan. Considering an interest rate of 5 percent, taxes, insurance, and payment on the principal, the government would offer aid totaling $229 a year. Without the program, the family would be paying $515 annually for their home. On a monthly basis the family would pay about $24.00 with the government's help, or $34 without.
