Florsheim Shoesj Washington,-Th-e opposition of Utah lamb producers to the present Federal lamb grading program was voiced on the floor of the U. S. Senate recently by Senator Frank E. "Ted" Moss. The Utah Democrat called the attention of the Senate to a conference on lamb grading cal'ijfcd for April 17 by the Marketing Service. The conference will consider grower complaints at grading practices. "It is the contention of many of the sheep growers of my state and the nation, that Fed-eral grading practices have not been, sufficiently improved to keep up with marketing prac-tices and are resulting in un-reasonable profits for the mid-dleman at the expense of the producer," said Senator Moss. "It is the belief of produ-cers that they are actually pre-vented from producing the type of lamb which would appeal most to the housewife consu-mer by arbitrary grade stan-dards of the government grad-ing service," he said. Included in Senator Moss's remarks were excerpts from a speech given by Don Clyde of Utah and a resolution of the National Wool Growers Asso-ciation. Mr. Clyde, retiring President of the Association, spoke against the lamb grading program before the last Na-tional Wool Growers Conven-tion at Portland, Oregon. The resolution, which requests the Secretary of Agriculture to ter-minate immediately Federal Grading of lamb, was passed t at the same meeting. I GRANITE DIST. TO VOTE ON APRIL 28 Granite District residents will be asked to vote Tuesday, April 28th in an import-ant school election. Purpose of the election is to raise money for school buildings, sites and equipment to serve the rapid-ly expanding school population. 3,496 additional students, the Granite School District antic-ipates, will attend Granite schools in 1959-6- 0. Within the next five years 18,663 new stu-dents will be added to the en-rollment. The election, made mec-essa- ry by soaring enrollment, will offer two proposals for vo-ters to consider, bonding for $3.5 million and levying a 10 mill increase in property tax. The bonding ' proposal contin-ues the bonding of previous years and will not increase taxes. Granite District must be bonded to its legal limit to qualify for state aid. The 10 mill increase in local pro-perty taxes is a new proposal putting the issue squarely up to the voters as to whether they are willing to pay an additio-nal property tax to obtain new sfthool buildings or whether they perfer double sessions and overcrowding. The Granite District lists ten new schools as urgently needed: two high schools, three junior highs, and five element-ary schools. Six additions to existing buildings and the pur-chase of thirty sites are also contemplated. The 10 mill tax increase would be levied for two years only. Over the two year period it would raise $2.8 million, which would be added to the revenues from bonding and state aid to build new schools and additions and to purchase sites. By law it could not be used for other expenses, such as op-eration, maintenance and tea-chers salaries. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 28 at schools in the Gran-ite District. Residents desir-ing to vote on the bonding pro-posal must be registered voters and property owners. The only requirement for voting on the 10 mill increase is to be a registered voter. |
