Show . - - The task Prove3 too much for. Mr' and MrS' Leonar3 Dutson NOTICE FOR BIDS MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE 0 - A J? I the entire committee, so a six-ma- n Leamington " and Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Dutson1 ON COAL FOR SCHOOL Delta, Utah. Thurs., Mar. 1, 1951 MABEL HARDER BY HARRY MARLOWE three from each of the House and Senate, took over the task and over last week-en- d came out with the finished bill to be submitted to each House. Should the big money measure be passed early next week, it would still give Solons time to take action on any gubernatorial vetoes, since Gov. Lee is required by law to sign or veto a bill with-in five days of receiving the mea-sure during the time the Legislat-ure is in session. Should the completed bill not meet with the expectations of the governor, and it is certain to be higher than the figures submitted by the chief erecutive in his bud-get message, some trimming can be expected 'from the gubernatorial blue pencil. As has been the case for numer-ous years, the biggest items in the appropriations measure will be money allocated to educational in-stitutions of the state. In addition to the $3,200,000 in-crease in the minimum school fund an increase that must come from With just two weeks remaining in its 60-d- session, the twenty-nint- h Utah Legislature finds many of its controversial issues in the control of sifting committees and Gov. J. Bracken Lee's veto power. Consequently, the tax structure of the state isn't likely to be cha-nged greatly, and with the period growing short in any action can be take on an executive rejection of a bill, a number of other issues on which the governor and the leg islature disagree may go by the boards. Sifting committees came into po-wer on the fortieth day, last Fri-day, with a Senate group, headed by Sen. Marl D. Gibson e) first to appear. It swept the calen-dar clear of 140 bills, but only after bills to provide for tax refunds on gasoline had been re moved and made a special order. Other members of the conservative-pow-ered Senate sifting commit-tee include Sens. Alonzo F. Hop-ki- n Donald T. Ad-ams J Harold Reese (D- - Bear River City), Elias L. Day, lt Lake), Grant Thorn and Vern B. Muir The House committee, also con-trolled by Democrats, did not make its apearance until three days lat-er. Democrats gained control of the important committee under terms of the "horse trade" which earlier in the session seated Rep. Clifton G. M. Keer as ker Spea of the House. The powerful sifting committee was the fourth of a group of spec-ial committees gained by Demo-crats in return for giving up the speakership to the Republicans. When the committee took over in the lower house, it took over life or death control of some 200 bills, including many of the pro-posals asked by Governor Lee in his measures ot the Legislature, in eluding his tax reduction measures. Included also in the group were the Senate approved bill for dispos al of the Sugar House prison site, sale of the Governor's Mansion, and the entire nine-bi- ll Legislative Council highway program includ-ing a one-ce- gallon increase in gasoline tax, raise in trucking fees and the B and C road fund propos-als. meanwhile, the joint appropriat-ions was in them idst of its bien-nial struggle to fit the requested appropriations of state money in-to the limited confines of the anti-cipated 1951-5- 3 revenues - - a job that required pruning some $6,000, 000 from tentative figures submit-ted by property taxes, the appropriations requested by the institutions of higher learning have brought up some terrific headaches to the ap-propriations committee. Some relief to the state might come should legislators act on the latest suggestion of Gov. Lee and turn three of the State's junior colleges - - Weber, Snow and Dixie - - back to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which deeded the schools over to the state back in 1932-3- Under terms of the grant, should the legislature repeal the sections of law concerning use of these schools as state institutions, the educational plants would, of neces-sity, revert back to the Church. Concerted opposition from lea-ders of these three schools to the plan, together with the 'fact that the bills are in the hands of the sifting committees, might stall any action on the proposal. Should they pass, it could mean a considerable saving to the state. Appropriations to the schools cost the state over $800,000 last biennium, and temporary recom-mendations for the next two years are approximately 12 higher than the sum allocated for 1949-5- 1. Weber College, which lost its fight for four-ye- ar status two years ago via the gubernatorial veto route in the 1949 session, has a bill in again to grant that status, but the measure is given little chance of getting the green light from the sifting groups. If the makeup of the two com-mittees shows nothing else, it is indisputable proof of a trend ap-parent early in the session - - that the conservatives were firmly in the saddle in both houses. There will be no further legis-lation brought ouf that was tossed into the hopper merely to satisfy political promises . Sponsors of these bills, however, can point to the fact that they tried, although they put in the bills knowing they had no chance of passage. Possibly the biggest sifting com-mittee casualty will be the reap-portionment measures. Even the Housebacked bill which would give every county a senator, will face tough sledding to get onto the Senate floor, and the other three reapportionment proposals, none of which have been acted on at all, will have even rougher times. Also apparently doomed, or at least due to be sidetracked a bit, are the bills for a judiciary. The Senate, which pas-sed one bill only to have the House kill, it will be in no hurry to act on another measure, and the headless ballot proposal ap-pears to be up against stiff oppos-ition in the House. The Board of Education, Millard County School District, will accept bids in writing on slack-treate- d coal for the schools of the district during the school year, 1951-5- bids to be submitted on or before March G, 1951. Bids must stipulate the following: Name of mine to be supplied from; method of treatment of coal; year, model and size in tonnage of truck; price per ton delivered to schools. Price indicated must prevail dur ing year. Accepted bids should in-clude bond in amount of $1000.00. The Board reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids. Approximately 800 tons of coal will be needed for the coming school year.
