Revo Young, Richfield Speaker says public action vital to block federal land use law A major citizen effort will be necessary to prevent passage of a federal land use planning law in the new Congress, an official of the Utah Farm Bureau Federation said in Tremonton recently. In a speech to the local association of the Federal Land Bank, C. Booth Wallentine, UFBF executive vice president, said there are many among the 92 newly elected representatives and 1 1 new senators who believe the federal government should adopt land use laws. use planning is needed throughout the nation. But those who own and operate the land have the major responsibility for its development. Land use planning can best be accomplished at the county or local level of government, Wallentine stressed. Any federal law giving financial assistance to the states for land use planning would carry with it certain controls over the planning process, he cautioned. Land use planning should provide for the use of land resources and the environment in a manner that will preserve and protect these resources to meet the needs of our citizen.. Local officials, working with owners of the land, are in a much better position to determine the present and future needs in their communities. They fedshould not be bound by eral guidelines which inevitably bring controls, he said. Wallentine also called for an end to government controls on natural gas pricing. Federal controls setting limits on natural gas prices at the wellhead stifle production. More than 30 fertilizer plants have been closed in recent weeks due to the shortage of natural gas, a primary element in fertilizer manufacturing. If this nation is to maintain an abundant supply of food, farmers must have fertilizer.
