COLLEGE i. Schieffelin a candidate for treasurer DENVER (AP) State Sen. Joseph B. Schieffelin today formally announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for state treasurer with a promise to reverse a declining trend In income from the state's investments. The 50-year-old Lakewood insurance company owner told a statehouse news conference that current investment policies by the treasurer are "anti-taxpayer, anti-business and pro bigger government." The treasurer's chief responsibilities are safekeeping of the state's money and investing it to earn interest.

Schieffelin, a 15-year veteran of the General Assembly, criticized the policies of former Democratic Treasurer Sam Brown and the current treasurer, Roy Romer, who was appointed by Gov. Richard Lamm when Brown took a federal job. Romer is "continuing his predecessor's policy of manipulating taxpayers' deposits for self-conceived socially desirable ends," Schieffelin said. Schieffelin released figures showing that the income from investment of all state funds has declined from $28.6 million in 1974-75 to $18.6 million in the 1976-77 fiscal year. Some of the income drop Is attributable to market factors, he said, but most of it can be traced to the state's investing Its money in banks and savings and loan institutions that promised certain social practices in their lending policies.

Schieffelin is the first candidate to announce for the nomination for treasurer. Romer-has not indicated whether he will seek election to the job. Elected to the House in 1963, Schieffelin has served in the Senate since 1965. He is currently chairman of the State Affairs Committee and vice chairman of Transportation.

Last year over 150,000 people were injured when they walked into doors they thought were open.

Report after report tells of lost eyes, cut tendons, disfigured faces and severed arteries all from flying glass. One of the problems here is that a great majority of the glass in these doors is flimsy often, not much stroner than ordinary window pane. But there are some solutions ecommended by the National Safety Council: Decorate your glass door with a decal or sand-blasted-type design to alert people when the door is closed. A foolproof precaution however, is to install a door made of shatter-proof safety glass which doesn't cost too much more than ordinary glass.

Heine said that although the government has put out a series of interim enviromental and reclamation rules for strip mines the first of which are scheduled to take effect Feb.

3 it lacks the manpower to enforce them because of the funding problem. And a panel of officials from mining states said that there is little states can do to enforce the rules until the federal government gets its own program going. Although President Carter signed the strip mining bill last Aug. 3 and the new agency was set up to implement it, the some $80 million in funds for the program have been tied up in the B-l dispute. Both the B-l bomber program and funds for the strip mining agency are in the same appropriations bill.

The House wants to continue development of the bomber while the Senate and the Carter administration want to end the program. Until Congress can aree on what to do about the B-l, the strip mining funds along with a number of other federal programs will remain in limbo. Anthony Abar, head of Maryland's strip mining program, proposed that Congress postpone the Feb. 3 and other deadlines under the strip mining act for at least 120 days. "Neither the federal government nor the states can enforce the deadlines," Abar testified.

But this approach was opposed by both Heine and committee Chairman Morris Udall.D-Ariz.
