He added that Carson'a retirement brings to a close a 'distinguished military service," and noted the general's civic activitlei. Herschler swid he would name a new adjutant general "In the very near future." The post is expected to go to Col.

Carson was appointed to the state's top revaluation of needs cased upon the speed of changing conditions," the report In short, the report states "the 1971 goals are no longer appropriate." The report calls for the establishment of four city-wide sectors for the maintenance" of streets, alley and park facilities.

"I have reached the age of retirement," said Carson, 60, "and to maintain the vitality of my office, I have decided to move on and make room for upcoming leaders." The general said he has no Immediate plans after retirement, but that he and his wife will remain in Cheyenne. A native of Pine Bluffs, Carson enlisted in the guard In 1938.

Another major short-term cost the city could incur under the proposed goals is $101,000 for additional administrative staff. "The council can no longer expect Its most valuable staff employes," Erickson pointed out in the report," to expand on their average 50 to 60 hour work weeks, accepting new projects or programs without restructuring various departments or adding competent, well-trained and adequately salaried subordinates." The city manager estimates that Casper needs a management analyst, a City Code enforcement coordinator, a data processing programmer and a court administrator, each with clerical support.

Other goals call for the development of a "one-way street system with proper couplets to two-way streets" for David, Center, Durbin and Wolcott Streets. The city will also study the feasibility of a bus system, the report shows. The city will be considering the hiring of additional civilian personnel in the police department to free deputized officers for major tasks and will study the development of the "attack system" of fire fighting. By DAN PARTRIDGE Staff Writer CASPER The city council Tuesday grappled with goals to deal with impact. The goals are a continuation of the city's community action program formulated in 1971 and provide for city support of housing projects with money from the federal government's Housing and Community Development Act.

The short-term goal for housing drawn up for the council in a lengthy report prepared by City Manager Ken Erickson provides that the city will "support housing construction through the private financial market," and the council will devote "quiet time" to individual proposed housing programs. The report submitted to the council points out that "the majority" of short and mid-term goals formulated in 1970 have been completed. But the report continues "Casper has been impacted with intense demographic and economic change and has been provided with new monetary resources through federal, state and local action." "These changes have required a flexible response to the original goals necessitating a compressed time frame for the accomplishment of the proposals, modification in the extent of the projected objectives, and in some instances, 4 FORECAST: RAIN See page 8 KEN ERICkSOM Lists personnel needs JOHN CARSON.

The consumers of legal services, he said, will benefit from the ruling. He said more than anything lawyers' fees are based on "public interest CASPER Local attorneys agree with the Supreme Court decision on minimum fee schedules. And most of those contacted by the Star-Tribune don't think the Court's declaration that fee schedules are illegal will have much effect in Wyoming. In an opinion by Chief Justice Warren E.

Burger, the Court Monday ruled 8 to 10 that the legal profession is subject to the Have extra furniture sit I A ft 1 4- 1 I ung ieea to ciean out vour basement? Need "A lawyer's time is his stock in trade," Kidd said, borrowing a phrase from Abraham Lincoln. "I think it's a good one," commented Charles Aspinwall on the ruling. "I've never seen a minimum fee schedule in my life." Lawyers base their fees on the amount of time that is involved, Aspinwall said and he explained, "it'a a philosophical thing to us (Wyoming lawyers)" and will have no effect in state. "I think they're exactly right," Mayne Miller aaid. adding "I don't pay any attention to them (fee schedules)." Miller added that the ruling may have some effect in some communities in Wyoming but he said attorneys in Casper don't try to act fees among themselves.

"I can't see where It can change anything." said Richard Bostwick. "I don't know if it waa ever an operational thing." "Prices in Wyoming vary considerably." he said, explaining that Wyoming lawyers were expecting such a ruling One possible effect, he said, is that law tWil graduates won't know what to charge fust frltine started in the business.

But Casper attorneys say there Isn't even so much as a gentlemen's agreement among them as to what prices they'll charge for particular services and Buffalo attorney William Kirvin, president of the Wyoming Bar Association, said the last time the state had a minimum fee schedule was in 1955. "I would say no," aaid Mike Sullivan, president of the Natrona County Bar Association, when asked If there are any agreements among attorneys about the fees they can charge for such routine services as adoptions and divorces. Casper lawyer William Drew waa apprehensive about the ruling. "The cost to the public of probates will be substantially Increased," Drew said, because the Supreme Court decision may Invalidate the Wyoming statute which sets the fees lawyera may charge for the settling of estates. Drew pointed out that he has not yet seen a copy of the decision but he aaid It may have auch an effect in Wyoming.
