Show Governor Stale of Utah - ". . . Keep Government Close to the People" "I believe it fundamental to keep government close to the Ceople. This can best be accomplished, in my opinion, by eening the responsibility for the collection and expenditure ' of the tax dollar as close to home as possible. "The further removed from the people such activities become, be-come, the more easily they can be altered and abused. Good examples of this can be found in certain Federal-aid programs pro-grams . . . "These and other examples have demonstrated that in many instances the States and communities would be better off, if, by foregoing Federal aid, they could retain the revenue of some of the Federal taxes now being collected." Excerpts from Message to the 30th Stition of tht Ltpilaturt, Honorable, Biucun Lis, Governor, Stat of Utah |
