—The Daily Collegian Friday, November 7, 1975 Homesteaders claim Utah land GLEN CANYON CITY, Utah (AP) Led by a polygamist, a diverse group of would-be homesteaders has fought the Bureau of Land Management to a temporary standstill over the right to continue living in house trailers, wooden shacks and tents on federal land near here. For more than si : months, Alexander Joseph, his young wives and dozens of followers have camped in a remote canyon that the government says cannot support human life. The settlers acknowledg ed their crops have failed and their homesteads are "trashy." but they say the government has restricted their efforts to fully utilize the land.

One federal official suggested that since the land is poor the settlers' true motive is to get publicity. Whatever the merits of the conflicting claims, the case features armed men who threaten a fight if an attempt is made to evict them. And it represents a challenge to the Interior Department's prerogative of deciding what lands are available for homesteading. Joseph, 39, who wears his long brown hair in an Indian style head band, says he loves America and obey its laws. He says it is the BLM that has been in violation of the law He and other settlers wear - WILL DANIEL - NOV. 7 4-9 PM -at- • pistols and carry rifles, and have threatened to use them if their land is taken. So far, there has been no violent confrontation. A federal court in Salt Lake City so far has allowed a dozen or so families -to stay, pending their appeal of its decision in a BLM suit to evict them, if they do not further alter the land. A newsman counted at least 50 homesteaders, including women and children, in the area. Joseph says there are at least 90 homesteaders, living various lifestyles. "I have a kingdom here," he said, "but it's a voluntary kingdom. Everybody does What he wants to do." The BLM is resisting new arrivals, saying it has returned $lO deposits from 113 other homesteading ap plicants around the country. -% % -4t,-. Claims have been for more than 38,000 acres of land north of Lake Powell, in cluding some National Park Service land and areas planned as a possible site for the Kaiparowits plant, a proposed coal-fired facility to supply power to California and Arizona. The original claims, and the only ones so far occupied, lie along the lightly flowing Paria River in Cottonwood Canyon. A dirt road winds through the high cliffs and monument-like rock out croppings. Cottonwood Canyon is a shortcut between Bryce Canyon National Park and Lake Powell in Southern Utah. The BLM sets it aside for livestock and recreation, and it has more than 18,000 visitors a year. "If I were going to homestead in this area, that canyon would probably be about the last spot I'd lo6k at," said Jeff Steele, a BLM official at nearby Kanab. "You just couldn't cut it out there, even if you owned all of the homesteads," he said, referring to the area's limited rainfall, flash flooding and lack of water rights.

Ilea ES \ VISLISHEI2.I The newspaper Warsaw Life has reported the research of Aleksander Stal and Teresa Krasowska designed to use the huge resources of the sea to provide food for mankind. Since fish is plentiful but many people dislike it. the scientists' problem was to make fish like something else even chocolate cake. The newspaper said scientists in other countries know how to make fish protein powder but it does not mix with other food. The powder of Stal and Krasowska, the newspaper said, tastes like meat when it is added to meat, cake when it is added to cake. As proof, the newspaper said that two kinds of sausages with a 10 per cent mixture of fish powder protein has gone on sale in the scientists' home town of Gdynia, as well as in Gdansk. Another eight kinds of "fish" sausage will go on sale soon, the newspaper reported. A-1 Copy Service IBM Fotocopies Quick Printing 5 Styles of Binding 237-4411 Marriotts 224 S.
