He was born in Lake Shore, Utah on Dicember 18, 1927, to Leo J. and Alberta Tuckett Aitken.

He attended school in Lake Shore and Spanish Fork while helping his mother run the family farm. He married his temporarily tied back with yellow rope, according to a volunteer nature interpreter who attended the ceremony. Tree cutting and trimming without an environmental or safety purpose would violate paik policies, said park Ranger Lisa Lackey. "We wouldn't cut down trees for President Clinton or anyone else, especially for a photograph," the ranger said. Reached at his home following his convention address, Hansen conceded he got his information third hand and had not checked its veracity.

"I didn't accuse anybody," he stressed. "We received a call from a mayor from one of the small towns down there. He said he heard about it from the (Coconino County, Ariz.) sheriff. Maybe I shouldn't have brought it up." But the congressman defended Us icaiuki, charging his pro-environment antagonists raise serious accusations on slim evidence. He mentioned Garfield County officials' widening of the unpaved Burr Trail inside Capitol Reef National Park last February, an incident decried as an arrogant act of vandalism.

Hansen flew to the site and found the project to be insignificant. "It was the biggest tempest in a teapot I ever saw," he said. on National Parks, Forests and Lands. The Republican congressman has objected to Clinton's designation last Wednesday of million acres in southern Utah for the Grand Staircase-Escalante National. The decree, which was made during the president's visit to the Grand Canyon, received no public input or congressional approval.

Grand Canyon National Park officials have described Hansen's remarks on Saturday as absolutely false.

"Thanks to the generous participation of community members, the fund supports about 20 students." Initiated in 1993, the special SALT LAKH CITY (AP) Rep. Jim Hansen threatened to open congressional hearings into rumors that trees were cut down to provide a backdrop for President Clinton's proclamation of hscaiante National Monument.

"This maybe hearsay and rumor but where the president stood on that beautiful panorama, we understand they cut down 14 mature trees," Hansen told the Utah Mining Association gathered for its annual conference in Park City on Saturday.

IPSC officials said deregulation could lure the power company's Los Angeles customers, which represent a majority of IPSC's customer base, away with lower-cost electricity, putting the plant's future in doubt. Fox said problems at IPSC would be felt in Lehi, which gets its electricity from the plant. Even the ride was important work, lawmakers said.

Haymond, who went on the Great Basin and Paiute trail tour, said the ride allowed lawmakers to gain first-hand experience with the trail program. But Haymond said several hours on an ATV was a bit rough for those not used to such modes of transportation. "I have to say that is the last time I'll go on an ATV," Haymond said. Nelson said the overall trip was hectic, due to the amount of sights organizers wanted lawmakers to see in their limited time. "It's more beneficial for me to stay at home and run my business," Nelson said.

"I'm giving more than I received as far as the state's offering." But Nelson said the trip provided him with a better perspective on rural issues, plus helped build a bit of loyalty and support between rural and Wasatch Front lawmakers. Peterson said the trip also helps work fine in urban areas, where there are enough people and resources to run them properly, but are inadequate in sparsely populated rural areas, Haymond said. Another concern highlighted on the trip was the need for economic development in the area. Peterson said the trip highlighted Sanpete County's dependence on the turkey industry. Lawmakers visited Senate Majority Whip Leonard Blackham's turkey farm in Moroni and the Moroni Feed cooperative turkey processing plant, the county's largest business.

Haymond said the state has put a lot of effort into bringing businesses to the Wasatch Front, while little has been done to encourage development in other areas. One plan to correct that would create economic development ones around hospitals in those counties, making it attractive for businesses wanting to provide medical benefits for employees. Then, state Industrial Assistance Fund money can be used to encourage businesses to locate in rural Utah. Fox said Sevier County's Economic Development Advisory Board, which hosted the lawmakers, has aggressively worked to develop business in the area. Fox also had a chance to learn more about IPSC's plans to keep operating as federal deregulation (Continued from Page CI) quality of education and making it easier for small communities to hire their own police forces.

While some of the issues were identical to those raised in last year's Growth Summit. Fox said the concerns were unique. Transportation. Fox said, "is a big problem. The rural areas are concerned that if we're spending money on the Wasatch Front, there won't be any left for them." The town meeting in Richfield brought out roughly 100 people, some of whom submitted questions for lawmakers to answer.

"We don't get that many people coming out to meetings in Salt Lake," Peterson said. Nelson said he was up until 2 a.m. one night of the trip listening to residents who wanted to present their concerns to a law maker. Haymond. a sponsor of social service legislation, said meeting with local residents gave him a better perspective on social service needs in rural Utah.

"We build programs for the Wasatch Front and say. 'By the way. this should work here as well." Haymond said.
