If every fishermen in the state took the same attitude, it would mean 600,000 fish, over a half million, lost to greed. This would make a substantial difference in the cost to the angler and the Wildlife belongs to everyone. We all need to protect it If we don't the greedy will eventually destroy the opportunity we have to view, hunt and fish for the resources that has brought us many enjoyable experiences. After all, we all want our children to enjoy it to. Two juveniles and two adults will be charged with close to sixty violations ranging from burglary and theft to joy killing and wasting protected wildlife and domestic livestock. State violations include the killing and wasting of two Rocky Mountain bighorn rams, antelope, deer, elk, several raptors including owls and a hawk and the shooting of livestock. Federal violations include killing eagles and wild horses red-tail- ed Eventually, 10 wildlife officers and three wildlife detector dogs were involved in the search for illegally taken wildlife. The Uintah County Sheriffs Department has cooperated with the wildlife cases and investigated the burglary of a cabin and the killing of livestock. Special agents from the USFWS and the BLM have assisted with several federal violations. This case has also extended into Colorado where further charges are pending. will be filed in the Uintah County Juvenile Court Charges against the adults will be filed in the appropriate court of the county where the violation occurred: Uintah, Daggett and Moffat County in Colorado. Federal charges will be filed in the appropriate federal court In addition to the potential fines and penalties, the defendants face possible forfeiture of vehicles and guns used to commit the violations as well as lifetime revocations of hunting privileges. At this point the investigators are still uncovering new allegations and further charges are pending. It is apparent to the investigating officers that they have documented evidence of only a fraction of the joy killings that have actually taken place. The-office- S Utah has a proud heritage of for public education. Utah citizens are above the national average in years of schooling completed Our students are first in the nation in the percent who pass advanced placement exams. Our residents make an above average contribution to education in their takes. Our school administration costs are among the lowest in the nation. Our teachers instruct classes that are the largest in the nation and serve at salaries less than the national average, but they continue to turn out successful students who will be strong and contributing citizens. I am proud of our students, our teachers, our administrators, and all our fellow Utahns who work together to create a qualiy education for all our citizens. I am proud to work together with my colleagues in the Utah Congressional delegation to support our state in its efforts to educate Utah children. Today, we are introducing the "Educational Equity Act of 1991 to change the distribution of federal funds to Utah and 23 other similarly affected states. While we seek to increase the funding that Utah receives on a per student basis, funding that is vitally needed in our state, die change we are proposing in the often used Chapter 1 formula is fundamentally fair for all states. I have grown increasingly concerned over the distribution of federal funds to our states.

Report violations to the local Conservation Officer or Sher- i Sficnndanr Education Grants Among the States. As you may know, this study is the result of a request made by Representative Owens and me dining the recent reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act rs The low per pupil funding in mainly a result of the tendency of Congress to use the Chapter 1 formula as the principal means of distributing fends in education. This formula is used to distribute funds to students who are educationally disadvantaged. Since we have never been able to identify nationally which students are educationally disadvantaged, we have agreed that an economically disadvantaged child tends to be an educationally disadvantaged child. Consequently, the formula for this program is based on the number of students who are found to be in poverty based on census data. I strongly agree with the need to serve children who are educationally disadvantaged. I firmly believe that n, Utah is Asalutetothosewho the strength of our country is based on a quality education for all our children. However, I do have concerns about how frequently we use a formula designed for one purpose to serve other purposes. Our educational programs should have their own formulas geared to the purpose they are intended to fulfill. The 1 formula should be used only for programs which serve children who are educationally disadvantaged. It should not be used for programs, teacher training, drug abuse prevention, or any other programs that are intended to assist students generally. Chapter math-scien- ce I am also concerned about two primary factors of the Chapter 1 formula. First, it uses census data which is always between two and twelve years old, and second, it incorporates state per pupil expenditure as a determinant of how much money a state receives. The result is that the formula provides more money to states with high per pupil expenditures. I do not know why a Senate colleague. Senator Gam, to poverty formula gives more funds make a change in the current Chapto' poor children in a wealthy state ter 1 formula.

I have reviewed a variety of methods for handling this problem and have concluded that the fairest and easiest approach is to simply remove the state per pupil expenditure from the formula and substitute the national per pupil expenditure. This means that once we have identified poor children, we will provide the same amount of money per child regardless of where they live. Therefore, I am introducing legislation, along with my senior working gether to solve this problem which affects education in Utah. I am particularly pleased to have the active support of our fellow Utahns who have front-lin- e respon-sibili- ty for educating our children: the State Board of Education, the Utah PTA, the Utah Education As- sociation, and the Utah School Boards Association. We all know that enacting this bill will not be easy. It will take a lot of hard wok and persistence. But, we are going to give it our very best shot . Utahns Will Soon Be Flooded With Information To Help Them Become Wise Investors Governor Norman H. BSngerter unveiled recently a tworonged Investor Education program targeted at warning Utahns about investment fraud and informing Utah's investors about how the legitimate investment market operates. According to a national organization of all state securities offices in the U. S., investors lose $40 billion a year to investment fraud. "No one is immune to investment fraud. Unfortunately, your doctor, your neighbor down the street or even you could become part of this year's fraud statistic," stated Governor Bangerter. "In introducing the Investor Education our goal is to educate Program all Utahns about investment fraud and give them information on how to become a wise investor so that they are not the next victim of a con artist." The Investor Education Program will be taking a apentitled first The phase proach. "Don't Get Soaked," is aimed at warning Utah's investors about the two-prong- ed victim of fraud. The second phase, entitled "Wise Investing Pays Dividends," is designed to educate Utahns on how to invest with good legitimate companies or investment opportunities. This phase will inform Utahns about the investment market, aid them in understanding investment products and opportunities, provide information on how to select an investment advisor and conduct seminars on how small businesses can legitimately and successfully raise capital through securities offerings. "Through this phase, we hope to educate people to help them make wise investments," stated David Buhler, executive director of the Department of Commerce. There are good investment opportunities consumers just need to in Utah be informed about how to spot 'them mid how to become a wise investor. The Department of Commerce is also producing a presentation that staff members will be taking to.any interested groups throughout the the messages danger of fraudulent investments. state to help convey both phases of through This will be done by broadcasting promoted in announcements thecampaign. service public This campaign is being funded cooperation with the Utah Broadcaster's Association on radio and entirely by administrative fines that television.
