What An Ulcer Will Do

We have just seen the wind blow out on a literary fiasco, predicated on a nagging ulcer, and perpetrated on the more unfortunate section of our society. We refer, of course, to the effort to discredit the Kosciusko county welfare board and its operation and to force it to withhold support to the aged and unfortunate residents of our county, thus failing in its sworn duty. This effort should be unmasked for just what it is —a diatribe hardly worth, the effort of reading. A good strong bicarbonate of soda for the writer would have saved Us all the effort of reading these poor pieces. We're amazed to learn that each of us is asked to give a measly $lO to support the welfare program. W ho among us would refuse this support? The secrecy prescribed by state law can be challenged in some places (but not all), but this cannot by any stretch of the imagination be laid at the doorstep of the county welfare board. Their fine job will

Jnch By Inch Some day, one hopes, man’s spirit, and his will to peace and amity between the peoples of the world, will equal man’s inventiveness. It is said, to take a single example, that we live in the jet age of international contact and travel. And so we do. But the skies do not belong to the peaceful traveler alone. Roaming them, at all hours of the day and night, over every continent and ocean, are the military jets, traveling at fantastic speeds and armed with weapons of incredible destructiveness. We have them, our Free World friends have them — and, of course, our ideological enemies have them too. Yet, in spite of all this, progress is being made; even though slowly. It is made every time a traveler —• bent on

Long - Standing Habit The electric power industry of this nation has a long-standing habit of setting records — month after month, year after year. And the year that just closed was ho exception. Some of the facts: For the first time in history, a total output of more than one trillion kilowatthours of electric energy was recorded by the United States in 1968. The use of electricity is following its long-terms growth rate of doubling about every 10 years —about times the rate of growth of the whole economy. During the year, the United States increased its lead over the second-ranking country, the Soviet Unions, to 137 million kilowatts.. Power lines of 500,000 volts are now being built and research is being conducted on test lines of 750,000 volts and more. This extra-high-voltage transmission pro-

continue, for they have received a wellspring of popular support in their work. This Goldwater-like effort to withhold aid from the aged and unfortunate is the same effort that would have nipped social security in the bud in the early 30’s. We note the writer of these bitter pieces just spent an expensive 30 days in Florida with his wife, pulling an expensive boat along behind his car down and back. How much did this cost? Can’t he, then, afford another $lO for the welfare program, much of which goes directly to the hospital he helps direct. We have stood aside long enough to see our welfare board ridiculed by this ulcer-inspired iliad which at base is a farce. We don't intend to continue. We want to be counted among those who support a welfare program well administered. - And we have found no reason to think the program in Kosciusko county has been anything but well administered.

That far-off goal of international tolerance and understanding then comes an inch closer. This is the greatest significance of * the jet age, with its shrinkage of time and distance. We can take pride that American international airlines have been leaders in opening up the comers of the world,' and in working toward reductions in fares that, each time they occur, make world travel possible to more and more people. And may there come a time when the skies carry only the great jets of peace, and none of the fearsome jets of war.

gram promises still better, still more dependable, still more economical electric service everywhere in the country. And hundreds of other research programs are underway, some concerned with nuclear energy. At the end of the year, the total investment in plant and equipment by the taxpaying, investor - owned utilities had reached the astonishing total of $54 billion. So this great story goes. And another phase of it should be added. On an average annual basis for the 1958-62 period, the power companies pay more taxes than any other industry in the nation. Their 1963 tax bill is estimated at $2.67 billion —a jump of S9O million over 1962. Who says this country needs socialized power ? The plain factual record makes a mockery of the tax-subsidized, socialized power movement.

Those who decide to make contract arrangements are primarily attracted for reasons of financing and* stabilized income. Bob also reports that a recent survey indicated 48 Indiana firms were offering contractual packages to 740 producers. (My six firms extended contracts for 50,000 layers or more, but there firms accounted for 68 per cent of all layers under contract Most firms were contracting less than 30,000 layers each. The survey revealed that contracting firms felt an average of 43 per cent of all eggs produced fit Indiana in 1968 would be produced under contract This would mean roughly 4.7 milhon layers. Essentially, the economist says a | typical tight contrast js likely to be characterized by these provisions: Housing, labor, utilities and some type of egg holding facilities furnished by toe producer.

HELP FOR THOSE WHO ARE “HOOKED” j

Dear Amy. Your recent article concerning t girl 24 years of age who was hooked on pills (signed her name “Hooked And Can’t Get Out”) was sent to me by a friend. I am a woman 26 years of age. In 1959, I started taking pills and slowly graduated to taking heroin by ’6l. I have been in and out of jails and hospitals. I felt hopeless just as this girl does. In September of 1965, a friend (an ex-dope addict) invited me to a “Teen Challenge Rally." there I heard another ex-dope addict give his testimony of how God delivered him from a life of crime and dope addiction. That night I found the answer for my dope addiction and other problems in my life. All I know is I tried many other ways and so did many others like myself, but through Teen Challenge, I found complete cure and peace of mind. Now I am living with this group of people who specialize in working with dope addicts. They stay with me day and night helping me through any temptation 1 might have. Please consider sending this letter and Information enclosed to this girL Thank you very much. “Was Hooked And Got Out" Dear Got Out; “Hooked And Can’t Get Out” did not include her name and address (as addicts seldom do), but I am publishing the name and address of this organization for her and the many others who are in desperate need of help. TEEN CHALLENGE CENTER 2263 South Hobart Blvd. Los Angeles 18, Calif. My sineerest thanks for your letter. •* * V Dear Amy: . \ This letter is in response to the ery for help from a female narcotic addict that you published recently- You are probably aware of the excellent work being done for narcotic addicts by SYNANON here in Santa Monica, Calif. It is an organization of 5 years or so that has several branches, throughout the country and a great many former addicts (some clean for, as long as 5 years) are now restored to society as testimony to the fact that SYNANON works.
