(AP) Four miles away Families have problems relocating By BILL BEECHAM Associated Press Writer HELPER, Utah (AP) - Two years ago, the 61 families of Castle Gate pulled up roots and moved, making way for ex panding coal production. Now, some of them are bitter, saying they are having problems sink ing new roots in a community four miles away. All of the houses in Castle Gate, a coal-mining town in eastern Utah, were moved by the landowner, McCulloch Oil Corp. The company, saying it needed the land for its growing coal interests, paid for the moves and gave each family a plot of land. | SOME THINGS THE FRIENDS AND I | NEIGHBORS OF DAVID ELDER I [i I WANT VOL TO KNOW I DAVID ELDER has the character, personality & management experience to carry out the duties of a County commissioner and will make a public official of whom all of 8 Griffin and Spalding County will be proud.

VOTE FOR DAVID ELDER PoJd Polled Ad. -irrMVlnnnnnn - - n n n n To some, like Pete Tabone, Castle Gate’s last mayor, the move has meant problems. To others, like veteran miner Will ard Craig, it has been a boon. Tabone complains that his taxes have risen and, “here, the wind never stops. It howls and gets colder than hell in the winter. “I’ve had lots of bills since we moved here. I mean we wanted to fight it, but found we didn’t really have a chance,” Tabone adds. Craig, though, says the new subdivision, carved out of a canyon, with squared off streets, a new coat of paint on the houses and yards lined with fences and flowers, pleases him. “I’m happy — greatly so,” says Craig, a machinist for 35 years. “We’ve got a pretty town. It’s clean and I think we’ll be happy here.” Like Tabone, most of the residents of Castle Gate Subdi vision of Helper are on fixed in comes. Some, Tabone says, made the move only to find their savings depleted and debts increasing. “If we wanted a basement, we had to pay for that,” Tabone says. “If we wanted a car port we had to pay for it. Since we made the move, some of us are finding it was something we couldn’t afford, no matter what McCulloch said.” Although Vanda Hreinson’s wooden-frame house suffered cracks from ceiling to floor during the move, she says she is delighted with the way things have worked out. “Look at what we did to the house,” she says, pointing to re paneled walls trimmed with flowered designs, a modem kitchen and a western-style garden in the back yard. “We never could have had anything like this at the old place.” C MOST WINN IMlflNw\ OPEN SUNDAY 1 Iki ’ I Ol\ 10 AJLIIIII P,M * I I /VMklLkll I \ PRICES GOOD THRU I IX JI JlTScWri octooek *>• I \>O| If 1 wj B| 11 QUANTITY RIGHTS RESERVED • NONE SOLD TO DEALERS \ |J/ A Y| II W COPYRIGHT 1977 • WINN DIXIE ATLANTA, INC.
