Show Moss Sees Impeachment of Nixon As Possibility By Robert A. Bryson However, in response Tribune Staff Writer T today Page D-- 5 Local News Classifieds The evidence in the Watergate incident is so close to President Nixon that I don't consider it out of the realm of possibility that he could be impeached, Sen. said Frank E. Moss, Monday. He was the keynote speaker at a political science workshop at the University of Utah sponsored by the New York-baseRobert A. Taft Institute of Government. d to a question, the senator said he cannot answer categorically how he would vote since the House of Representatives must vote the impeachment (bring the charges) and the gate story laid out. The Gallup poll shows that most people don't believe that the President was unaware of the Watergate incident, so the damage has been done. I think we should go full steam Senate must judge any evidence. May Bring Disaster Related Story, But, if we have impeachment of the President . . it may bring disaster in this country that we cant cope with, he added. We had better get the whole Water B-- 3 ahead with the investigation and take any action necessary, Sen. Moss said. In prepared remarks, he labeled the struggle between Congress and the President as the Nixon crisis."

Actually,1 we Utahns have a lot to boast about to tourists. We can make New Yorkers and Chicagoans and Californians wish they had never started bragging. Here is a list of things you can boast about to tourists when they start boasting about their home states: Salt Lake City has the first monument ever built to honor a bird the Seagull Monument in Temple Square. Jack Dempsey used to be a night janitor at the Hotel Utah -- - before he became heavyweight champion of the world! Utah pioneers were the first to make practical use of irrigation in North America. The salt content of Great Salt Lake is compared to a lousy 3' percent percent salt in the Atlantic Ocean (and what do you tourists from New England say about that?) . . . 27 Salt Lake City has the widest main 132 feet streets in the entire nation wide (not counting the overparked cars with yellow tickets on the windshields) Colleen Hutchins frorfi Utah a 5 foot 10 blonde was the tallest girl ever to w in the Miss America beauty contest. (Top that, you touring Eastern shorties!) Be sure and tell the tourists this summer that Utahs Uintah Mountains are prettiest mountains in the business the only mountains in North America that run east and west. (How do you like that, you California tourists? You only have mountain ranges that go north and south, we have one that goes east and west.) . . . Theres plenty of Utah stuff to brag about to snoot tourists who want to boast about back home." We have the lowest death rate in the nation and our Utah governors mansion has five bathrooms. How many other states give their governors five rooms from which to make a choice? ... Utah has more high school graduates e than any other state in the nation.

Where does the assessor send the tax notice if there's no record of the deed? he asked. Mr. Nemelka predicted the legislature could legalize the recorders practice with little effort.

The studies are being financed under a federal grant. Particular emphasis given on how best to spend monies received under federal revenue sharing, Mr. Johnson said. the mayor, commissioners, department heads and planners met into the night here Monday in an attempt to formulate overall city needs from a list submitted a couple of months ago by a blue ribbon panel of citizens.
