Show July 17, 1998 - The Eureka Reporter - Page Three POST training needed by all law officers In the last session of the Utah State Legislature, a new law was passed making it a requirement that all those railed upon to help with law enforcement activities, be a Category 1 Police Officer. This means that those serving with the Juab County Sheriffs Posse and Search and Rescue.. must have Police Officers Standards and Training (POST). Juab County Sheriff David Carter said the new law is not helpful to Juab County residents, who rely heavily on the search and rescue volunteers, especially on the bigger holidays. "We need all the help we can get with law enforcement at the Little Sahara Sand Dunes at Easter, for example," Carter said. "This caught us said Carter. He said the Utah Sheriffs Association was trying to see what could be done to modify the action taken by the Legislature. The item was attached to another bill as a trailer. The sheriff added, "We cannot even function in our county without using the search and rescue volunteers. We have too few officers, too much territory to cover, and too many people visiting each holiday. We have a county of 8,000 residents and 70,000 to 80,000 visitors depending on the holiday." Carter said he had recently signed an agreement with the off-guar- of Land Management to provide more law enforcement at the Little Sahara Sand Dunes and had signed a similar agreement with the Uinta Forest Service to assure law enforcement patrols during the summer.

As I looked out by hotel window one evening in what less than nine years ago--wEast Berlin, I marveled at the hundreds of construction cranes which cluttered the skyline. Like a thirsty sponge soaking up capital in the portion of a city which had suffered under communisms neglect since the end of World War II, the construction projects spoke volumes about the confidence investors have in capitalism and about the political stability of a Germany. The old city center, which was largely destroyed during the war, is now being rebuilt into what will be one of the most magnificent cities in Europe. As I saw on display the last remains of the Berlin Wall, I recalled President Ronald Regan's admonition, "Mr. Gorbachev, Robert Garrett, Juab County tear down this wall.

However, this substance must be put on the road every year, he said. Comm. Bernini asked how it works on heavy traffic areas.

Rural counties will be the hardest hit by the change. "In order for my posse members to become law enforcement officers, they would have to attend 12 weeks of Police Officers and Standards Training," said Carter. In addition to the expense, not many people could not turn up at their jobs for 12 weeks and still have a job to go back to when the training was over. The rider to House Bill 308 would be a problem for many of the functions of a normal rural sheriffs search and rescue operations. "We just depend on volunteer help, said Carter. "Most of the guys who help us out already have a lot of expense involved in working as part of the search and rescue team. They have special equipment they have purchased, drive vehicles, and have taken their time and money to attend special training programs. f Dirmanlh Bwiuu I) 300 ts HFreeMopuM modem come urllD one year sign-u- p. i B a lay-do- in the world now under various forms of democracy than all other types of government combined. Just ten years ago this was not the case. I realized that the shot heard round the world really did create a new paradigm of liberty which other nations followed and, despite a slow start in the 19th century, democracy is now covering the globe. While Regan is certainly to be credited for breaking the will of communist leaders through his string military defense posture, another president came to mind as I contemplated the changes we have witnessed during the past decade. It occurred to me that more than any U.S. President, we have General George Washington to thank of the "Rebirth" of this city and the spread of liberty throughout the world. If George Washington and the Patriot sliders had failed to win independence through the Revolutionary War, I wonder if Berlin or Paris or Tokyo or New York would tv free todav. Tf thr shot tired at Lexington in 1775, which began eight impossible years of war, had not ultimately succeeded in winning liberty, would most of our planet be free today? How Jong would it have taken for the rights and freedoms we take for granted today to become so widespread? As we celebrate our independence this month, let us remember the sacrifices of Washington and his men who suffered through exposure, starvation, and constant shortages of supplies, arms, and ammunition. It is amazing that men would continue to fight under such hopeless conditions. Three times more colonial soldiers died from exposure, disease, starvation or captivity than died in combat.
