Show Mon Apprehended After VA Loans Available Elmer J. Smith, Director of the Veterans Administration Regional Office in Salt Lake City said the new education loan program is in operation in Utah. Effective date of the program was January 1, however, the entire current academic year may be considered when determining eligibility for a student loan. Under this new education loan law, those veterans, wives, or eligible children will be required to execute promissory notes, agreeing to repayment of principal plus 8 percent interest. Repayment of principal and interest will be deferred while the student is attending classes, at least on a half- time basis.

To develop the goal statements, the Forest Service grouped its more than 40 basic programs and activities into six resource systems. For each system, goals for supplying the nation with different amounts of resources were established. Some of the probable effects of meeting each of the goals are also listed. Those eventually selected will be used to set resource targets and objectives and to schedule Forest Service program activities to accomplish desired results. The release of 1974.

Although they are not tied to specific geographical locations, the alternative goals will be of particular interest to people residing in the In- termountain area, said Mr. Hamre. They apply to six management systems - out door recreation and wilderness, wildlife habitat, range land and forage, timber, -- the Alternative Goals document is the second major involvement of the public in Forest Service plans to implement the Resources Planning Act. The first was the release on February 3 of a comprehensive outline of the full approach the Forest Service intends to take in carrying out the Act.

Division of Wildlife Resources officials are urging sportsmen and other interested citizens to write to the Commission and their Congressmen to cut off what could blossom into a total ban on firearm ammunition and the sport of hunting. Division Hunter Training Officer A. Lee Robertson pointed out that a ban of all handgun ammunition would include .22 ammunition, used both in handguns and rifles. Loss of .22 ammunition would severely hurt the Divisions hunter safety prohe noted, because gram, the .22 is the rifle used to qualify hunter safety students. The petition asks that the Commission ban the sale of bullets for handguns to everyone except police, licensed security guards, the military and licensed pistol clubs. The petition states that, said bullets are hazardous substances under the provision of the Hazardous Substances Act of by 1 health department uses to pres. vent I have referred to public apathy as the reason why the number of persons being immunized has fallen off in recent years. Another is ignorance. A few months ago a small diphtheria epidemic of six cases broke out in Cortey, Colorado among the members of the Church of the Firstborn, a fundamentalist sect that had once broken off the LDS Church. These people do not believe in immunizing against disease. A young child died as a result of that epidemic--a death that could have been prevented. Fourteen cases of diphtheria in the Phoenix area recently were reported andlastyear some 57 cases of diphtheria with several deaths occured earlier among the Indians of New Mexico and Arizona. From these episodes we can see that in a time of crisis, a disaster or just plain hard times, those who have planned, have intelligently utilized those preventive measures to safeguard their health will be the ones to weather the storm. This is a primary role of a health department to teach people to prepare for such an eventuality, to enforce laws which will insure a safe environment now and in the midst of crisis, to participate in pro- will to trade you our for your scrap iron, steel, copper, brass, radiators, and aluminum. a chance Thur., Fri., Sat., Reduced prices on car, truck and tractor tires cash BUY NOW' a Open week days Saturdays OFF on all Oil and Filters INTERMOUNTAIN FARMERS If est the Commissions decision, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, on December 19, 1974, ordered comthe Commission to mence consideration of the Committees proposal.

The potential impact on the sporting public cannot be ignored, said Division officials. Sportsmen are urged to write the Commission to oppose the petition which is unfair to millions of legitimate handgun owners. The public should make it clear they do not feel ammunition falls within the category of hazardous substances such as dynamite.
