t Th« Dally Banna* BrwanaaaHa, Indiana Thursday, Juna 2, 1966 Editorial-Wise Time For Serious Thinking Now that tha slaughter el the Memorial Day weekend is over, it is time for serious thinking. Approximately 50,000 Americans will lose their lives on our nation's highways this year. Last year in Indiana, 1,508 Hoosiers died. In Putnam County this year, 2 have died. Last week 86 American soldiers died in Viet Nam. There are mixed emotions about the war in Viet Nam. Demonstrations and counter-demonstrations have been held. However, we have yet to see a demonstration pleading more safety on our highways. We have yet to see marchers stop traffic in protest against traffic deaths. We have yet to hear of teacher and student "teach-ins" for the cause of safety. We, as citizens, have accepted this murder as a way of life. But it doesn't have to be this way. If everyone will accept his responsibility as driver, obey all traffic laws and remember that driving is a privilege, not a right, traffic deaths will go down. Our highways will become as safe as the city streets of Greencastle, where a traffic death has not occurred since 1959.

A Local Teonager's View By Janet Staub Money is considered the root of all evil but just where it got its roots Is a very interesting subject. It wasn’t easy work for a man to lug around goods while he looked for someone to trade with. He’d have to drop them in a hurry if an'enemy appeared. And it was hard to have, because many goods were perishable, and other goods were too bulky to hide away from thieves. If only men had something to stand in place of the goods, something easy to carry, easy to hide, something in general demand. That is where the beads came in. Everybody wanted the bright things to hang around their necks. Beads were one example of early money. Over the years, men have used shells, dog’s teeth, tobacco, skins, gold, silver, copper, and many other commodities as money. Even today baseball cards are considered money tg a little collector. BY THE WAY: WOW, Summer’s almost here.

"Small Plane" Was A Model 8HELBYVILLE UPI The area surrounding the Shelby County town of Pleasant View about 10 miles southeast of Indianapolis became the scene of an intensive search for a “small plane” reported to have crashed near Interstate 74 Wednesday evening. An abrupt halt was called to the hunt when two men walked up to state police troopers, Shelby County deputy sheriffs), and local residents and asked if they had seen a small radiocontrolled model airplane they lost during a flight. Authorities said they received two telephone calls from persons reporting the “crash” and six witnesses near the scene apparently mistook the model for a real plane in fading light.

Bosch Has Edge Over Balaguer SANTO DOMINGO UPI — Scanty official returns from Wednesday’s presidential election gave Juan Bosch a 3-to-2 edge over Joaquin Balaguer early today, but unofficial reports said Balaguer is sweeping the country. The official count from 116 of the nation’s 3,421 voting districts—most of them in Santo Domingo—gave Bosch 35,875 votes to 22,516 for Balaguer and 1,421 for also—ran Rafael Bonnelly. The newspaper El Caribe, however, quoting an “incomplete and unofficial poll fo 13 provinces and cities” outside the capital, said Balaguer has 100,243 votes to Bosch’s 81,174.

LETTER

^\rtotke EDITOR

Dear Editor: Congress is working on some bills to set up a new Federal electric bank to finance expansion of rural electric co-ops. Proponents of the idea hail it as a step forward in transferring the burden of rural co-op financing from Uncle Sam’s shoulders to the open money market. If this really were to be accomplished and if there were not grave dangers inherent in the electric bank schemes offered thus far, broader enthusiasm might be generated. Under the bill backed by the Administration, a Federal electric bank capable of lending in excess of 58 billion would be formed. It would be the fourth largest bank in the nation in terms of lending power, outranked only by the Bank of America, Chase Manhattan Bank and First National City Bank. The plan calls for the indefinite use of 5750 million in taxpayer money. In addition, the bank would be authorized to issue debenture bonds up to 10 times its capital and surplus. Here are the weaknesses and the dangers: The bank wouldn’t replace the present 2% REA loan program but would supplement it. Rural electric co-ops could borrow from the bank to expand their operations freely and without restrictions — even into urban areas. They would not have to justify such expansion to anyone — including the Congress of the United States. Since the bank governor would be the head of the Rural Electrification Administration, this free-wheeling government agency would have a clear road in putting the federal government into the electric power business on the broadest scale yet proposed. It Is apparent that the Federal electric bank is the latest effort by public power advocates to put Uncle Sam much deeper into an area in which a free enterprise, investor-owned industry has amply demonstrated its ability to perform In the public Interest. If you want less government in business, you would do well to tell your congressman to vote against the Federal electric bank.
