Thanks to all who wrote or called their congressional representative tn support of the VOTING RIGHTS EXTENSION. H.E.S. NAACP WHAT WE HEARD ABOUT THE VOTING RIGHTS ACT ‘There are more people residing in New York City who are covered by section 5 pre-clearance than in the entire State of South Carolina...The triggering method of this act has nationwide application and is designed to isolate those areas where specific problems occur, and that is why certain states are covered, certain counties are covered outside of covered states...So, it is not a discriminatory act. It does apply nationwide."—James F. Sensenbremier Jr. (R-WI) “There come a point when we have to recognize that we can no longer deal with people's human rights or voting rights bit by bit. Why should certain segments of the society have to wait until some point in time when those who are in authority and in control in this society finally make the decision that it is time to really move and have equitability across the board in terms of voting rights?”—-Shirley Chisholm (D-NYI “Adlai Stevenson once said, ‘America is nothing when it consists of each of us. America is something when it consists of all of us.’ The Voting Rights Act has helped make a reality of this dream. We have made no mistake by trusting the people. And we will make no mistake by extending this law."-—Jim Wright [D-TX] APPRECIATED ACTION Thr S«*nat<* must now act on the hill to extend the VRA.

President Reagan, who publicly supports the Voting Rights Act in principle but has yet to take a position on specific legislation, is certainly a key player. Senate Majority Leader Howard H. Baker, Jr., (R-TN), who has indicated support for extension of a strong voting rights bill, could help provide leadership and expeditious scheduling. Senators who have gone on public record early in support of a strong Voting Rights Act include Chalres McC. Mathias, Jr. (R-MD), Edward Kennedy (D MA), Richard G. Lugar, (R-IN], Barry Goldwater (R-AZ), and Daniel
Patrick Moynihan (D-NY).

An annual project of Citizens Forum’s “Better NEIGHBOR Program,” which has met nationwide acclaim, has been extended to six months at the request of the Marion County Health & Hospital Corporation. The De-RAT-ication Campaign now in its 14th year, currently is underway, having officially begun October 1, a three months' advance on the normal kick-off date of January 1. Hopes are that it will be in full swing by the end of this month. RATS depend almost entirely upon MAN for FOOD, WATER and S H E L T E R. Some of their FOOD favorites are garbage (uneaten food), dog food, bird food, animal manure. The best way to control RAT populations is to starve them out. When food is plentiful, a female RAT may have up to 150 babies a year. When there is little or no food they reduce new litters, starve their young and will even attack, kill and eat each other. It is important to keep garbage in enclosed containers and use burners for papers ONLY. NOT GARB AGE. CANS. OR BOTTLES. Do not leave filled plastic bags in yard or alley, except at time of trash pickup. Do not leave uneaten pet food in your yard or wherever your pet feeds. All animal manure (dogs, cats, chickens and their farm animals) should be cleaned up daily and put in enclosed containers for disposal, posal. RATS drink WATER from dog dishes, discarded cans and containers, inside rims of discarded auto tires, even stagnant water. All standing water, whether inside or outside of the home should be emptied, although it is almost impossible to control the RAT’s water supply. RATS prefer junk cars,

lumber piles, old furniture, appliances and when possible, littered sheds and basements for SHELTER. These things should not be kept in your basement, garage or yard. Lumber, bricks or other building materials must be stored at least 18 inches above the ground. WEAPONS OF RATS are - their front teeth which grows up to 6 inches a year, so they must chew or gnaw constantly to keep them filed to best working condition. They can chew through a lead pipe, wood, old and cracked cem, nt foundations, electrical wires (start fires). Plastic containers or plastic garbage bags are a pushover for a RAT! - their feet are especially good for digging holes, climbing and jumping... jumping recod: standing jump Oft.) running long jump (8 ft.) free fall (without injury) (50 ft.). - their fur carries filth, disease, germs and fleas and HAS KILLED MORE PEOPLE THAN ALL THE WARS IN HISTORY. RATS contaminate everything they touch. And because RATS cannot control themselves, they urinate constantly. The RAT is a wild and dangerous animal. 60,000 people in the United States were bitten by RATS last year, mainly the very young and the very old. Be assured that a rat will attack when cornered. Elmo G. Coney, Director for the sponsoring organization, is issuing a plea for all citizens, adults and children, to contact Citizens Forum if the presence of RATS or their harborages is suspected. Other ways to help would be to cut all weeds in your yard and along your alley. If there is a garbage or trash problem in your block which you wish to report, please call 923 5252.

DM* Booze con lengthen your life The Kaiser-Permanente Medical Center recently released a ten year study which examined the effect of alcoholic beverage consumption on the life expectancy of individuals between fifty and sixty years of age. The study revealed that moderate drinkers are more likely to live longer than either heavy drinkers or people who do not consume beverage alcohol. This is not the first study showing that moderate consumption may, in fact, be beneficial to a person's health, a spokesman for Beer Distributors of Indiana said. He further explained that beer historically has been referred to as “the beverage of moderation" and his distributors encourage the responsible use and consump tion of malt beverages. In the study. Dr. Klatsky of Kaiser-Permanente wrote “the hazards of chronic substantial drinking are obvious. The data presented here indicate that the threshold for increased mortality risk lies in the range of regular use of three to five drinks daily and that risk rises sharply at six or more dnnkv per day.”
