-Senator Assails Administration Vietnam Policy WASHINGTON UPI _ Sen.
George S. McGovern, D-S.D., to- j day accused the Johnson administration Tuesday of follow-; ing a “policy of madness” in escalating the Vietnam war and blaming its critics for escala- * tion’s failure to end the conflict.
The former bomber pilot told
the Senate he does not blame Gen. William C. Westmoreland for decrying critics of U.S. mil- . itary policy “because he is obviously doing both in Vietnam or in New York exactly what he is told to do by his com-mander-in-chief, the President.” ^ Westmoreland, in a speech in -New York Monday, said the “enemy in Vietnam had “gained “Support” in the United States and abroad that offers him hope
lifor a political victory.

^ McGovern said America’s -deepening involvement in the »war is the “most tragic diplo^matic and moral failure in our
national experience.”

With the passing of Mrs. Lunda Hurst there comes to mind a story that had a happy
Speech with his direct criticism, ending but could have been a
dire tragedy. Several years ago Mr. and Mrs. Sylvia Hurst were living on their farm and at the same time Mrs. Mable Davidson was teaching in the Belle Union School. On one winter afternoon snow started coming in a swirling blast and bitter cold with it. Principal Pritchard ordered school closed and Mrs. Davidson started for Coatesville. She soon found her car stalled in a deep drift and knew she must get somewhere for the night. When almost frozen and about to give up she saw a house and stumbled to the door. Mr. and Mrs. Hurst pulled her inside and started work on frozen fingers, ears and feet. They kept her for two days and nights and then roads were cleared. In after days, these good folks met Mrs. Davidson and laughed about the blizzard that brought them unexpected company. They were wonderful
people.
Cascade’s Cadets won a track and field meet with the Danville Warriors on the Center Township field last week. The Cadets took the mile and half mile relays along with first places in the long jump, high hurdles, shot put, pole vault, 100 yard dash, 220 dash and 440 dash. Cascade scored 84 points to DanviUe’s 34. Quite a run-
away.

of the President and his reference to the Westmoreland ad-
dress.
Paying tribute to the U.S. commander, his fellow officers and enhsted men, McGovern said “these brave men are in Vietnam because of the shortsightedness of our political and diplomatic policymakers.”
< Then he added:
* “In trying to imply that it is ‘American dissent which is causing the Vietnamese to continue the war, the administration is only confessing the weakness 4>f its own case by trying to * silence its critics and confuse
the American people.
It is not the impact of the
^dissent on Hanoi that worries ‘ the administration; It is the * fact that the dissenters have ext posed the contradictions, the * falsehood, and the resulting * credibility gap which surrounds
t administration policy.”
“ McGovern said, "I do not instead to remain silent In the * face of what I regard as a pol- * Icy of madness which sooner or 4 later will envelop my son and . American youth by the millions
for years tq come.”
NO SOLUTION
ANN ARBOR, Mich. UPI— Attempts to reduce air pollution by moving smoky factories out into the countryside may just make the problem worse. A report from the Travelers Research Center of Hartford, Conn., delivered at a University of Michigan conference said the warm air of the city may draw pollutants back from the surrounding rural areas. The report said the polluted air could be drawn back into the city “at concentrations three to 10 times greater than would have been expected from
previous studies.”

Esther Awbrey who was unable to attend. The guest, Mrs. Clifford Hadley, agreed to show colored slides taken recently by her husband, Clifford, while on a trip over Europe. The public is invited to the program on May 9. The history of the song of the month, “All Through the Night,” was given by Mrs. Smyth. The hostesses, Mrs. Esther Shelton and Mrs. Mozella Allee served refreshments. On Tuesday, April 18, the fifth grade classes of the Fillmore School went by school bus to Terre Haute. Three places were visited. The children were taken first to the Early Wheels Museum, then to see where the noted song writer Paul Dresser was bom and last to the Historical Museum. In the Wheels museum, they viewed old race cars dating from 1897 to 1910, along with bicycles used in old days. In the Dresser home was an ancient cord bed and Bibles that were around a hundred years old. In the Historical Museum was Civil War clothing, guns, bullets and other things of Interest. Many on the trip were interested in fossils, the model of an old time flat boat and one of a steamboat of long ago. Some Indian relics, such as beads, arrowheads and a feathered hat got a lot of attention. This story was principally written up by Beverly Kelley and the reporter calls it a good job for a fifth grade pupil. How many folks recall April 18, 1775? “Listen my children and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere.” Mr. and Mrs. Wendell Elrod were in Tipton Tuesday visiting with a sister of Mrs. Elrod. Melvin R. Daniel, a Coatesville boy and a graduate of the Amo High School, has won considerable honor as a practice teacher of social science in the Gerstmeyer High School In Terre Haute. Melvin has been cited as the "Outstanding Social Studies Student Teacher” at Indiana State for the 1966-67 term. He has also been made an honorary member in the Indiana Council of Social Studies and in the National Council. His wife is the former Deedee Keller of Stilesville and now a student at Indiana State. She will soon complete her student teaching. Coatesville is glad for this friendly young man and wife. Kindergarten pre-enrollment was held at the Civic building Wednesday morning, April 19. Mrs. Louise Phillips, present kindergarten teacher, reports that an enrollment of but ten can be counted for next year. Cascade athletic squads were busy this week. There was a baseball game with Martinsville and two track meets. On Wednesday afternoon the first meet was held with the Boys’ School, Monrovia and Cascade participating. Only the scores of the meet were available. Cascade scored 95 points, Monrovia 34 and Boys’ School 19. The schools taking part in

Word came Sunday morning that a neighbor lady, Mrs. Edith Buffo, had sometime Saturday suffered a light stroke. Her left arm and lower limb were partially numbed and made difficult to function. Close friends of hers, Mr. and Mrs. Don Allen of near Belleville, are with her at present.
United States Postal Savings certificates totaling 334.00, which are on deposit at the Greencastle Post Office, will cease earning interest for 5 local depositors on April 27, 1967, Postmaster C. T. Albin said
today.
Nationwide, the Post Office Department is holding more than $90 million in the now obsolete program which was discontinued by the Congress on March 28, 1966. As of April 27, 1966, Postal Savings were discontinued, and no deposits were accepted by the Post Office Department. Certificates whose anniversary dates have been reached since last April 26 have earned their final interest payment, Postmaster Albin said. On June 30, he said, all remaining funds in the program will be turned over to the Treasury Department to be held in a trust fund until liquidated. There they will remain avail-
claims are received. Postmaster Albin urged that all Postal Savings depositors close out their accounts and invest their funds into United States Savings Bonds or the new Freedom Shares, which on May 1 will pay 4.74% interest. Holders of Postal Savings certificates can arrange to redeem them simply by applying at the post office where the certificates were issued. The postmaster there, he said, will provide guidance and necessary forms to assist in cashing certificates.
