He notes fair treatment in early ballots builds confidence, while poor performance could worsen tensions. Mahony, a Hollywood native, denies walking picket lines with Cesar Chavez and says he may hire seasonal workers to oversee harvest-period elections.

Salt flats said to be dissolving at Bonneville
The Bureau of Land Management will spend 80 000 over two years to study the cause of Bonneville Salt Flats depletion. Utah BLM Director Paul Howard cites weather and a nearby potash plant as main suspects. The Utah Geological Survey reports a 13 million ton salt loss over 14 years, with salt depth dropping up to one foot along the 15 mile track, creating safety concerns for high speed rocket powered race cars. The study remains inconclusive on the exact cause.
