Protest Movement A Bisservice To The US
WASJHNGTON. D. C. — I have’ been watching the growing flurry of demonstrations against our actions in Vietnam not so much with alarm as with a sense of pity for the youthful participants. As with all young people, these demonstrators are easily roused when a “cause” is involved. The pity of it all is that they are clearly misguided, misinformed and — wliether they know it or not — they are doing their nation and all it represents a great disservice. What makes their actions particularly reprehensible is tiiat they are based not on fact, but on emot’on; not on an understanding of global danger, but on a blinding fear, of danger. I am reminded of President Franklin Roosevelt's first inaugural address when he warned that “the onlv thing we have, tn fear is fear itself”. That memorable statement is as to the anti-Virt-nasn demonstrators today as it was tn a denression-ridden nation more than 30 years ago. There is shameful in being apprehensive about the s:tuat:on in Vietnam. There is noth’ng wrong in being critical of specific "ol’cies punned tl>ere bv our government. President Johnson himself is apprehensive and has approached the potential tinder-box of Ve*nam wth carefullv reasoned caution. And no one contends that there is no room for disagreement with this or any other governmental policy. What is un r ortunate. however, is that these demon Orators aonear oblivious to anv threat whatsoever; from world Communism in general and from the Chinese - and North Vietnamese - backed Viet Cong in particular. They appear .oblivious to the significance of a potential Communist takeover of South Vietnam and. eventually, all of southeast Asia. Such a development would significantly weaken our efforts to minimize communism in our own hemisphere. It is a shame, too, that this oblivion on the part ,of a few should reflect upon the vest majority of young .Americans l who understand that unless we stem the tide of Communism in south[east Asia today, it will inevitably come thundering toward our own shores tomorrow. I have talked with parents who have sons in Vietnam. I have talked with soldiers, some of whom were severly wounded, who have returned from Vietnam. I have talked with the widow of a fine young man from my home town of Terre Haute who gave his life for his country in Vietnam. And of all the hardships they have had to endure, the worst has been the spectacle of these young people making a mockery of the sacrifice they and their loved ones have made. Problems in Vietnam will not disappear overnight, but our policy of firm retaliation has changed our prospects from dismal to hopeful. Our military efforts are being performed sunultanetMisly with vastly increased and spectacularly successful programs to develop political unity in south Vietnam and to alleviate hunger, disease and illiteracy'. What these demonstrators obviously do not understand is that viqu cannot thatch roofs, build paths bring in a crop, teach and feed children, and provide medical attention if the Viet Cong are permitted to roam freely, feed like parasites off villages already poor, pillage, kidnap and murder. They have, in the. past, swept like a disease over an unprotected populace. We must first remove the festering virus before we can hope to revive the patient.

WLTB OBESITY LIKE fat father, like fat son. This is not always true, but the familial tendency towards obesity is striking. Studies of families with fat children show that half of the children who have one fat parent develop overweight, while two-thirds of the children whose parents are overweight develop obesity. Overweight is one of the common and unsuccessfully treated conditions in adolescents. Obesity is seen in 10% of the children in this country and in from 10 to 20% of adolescents. In addition to the dangers of added poundage on the body’s vital organs, overweight adolescents often have behavior problems that make treatment difficult. Many overweight adolescents have little or no interest in games or athletics and are self-conscious about their appearance. Often the only physical activity they engage in is walking and swimming. » The best treatment for obesity in the adolescent is prevention. And the best “preventative” is for the family eating habits to undergo a major revision. While adolescents do overeat snacks and between-meal treats, a child’s family is responsible for the main meals. YOUR SKIN THE human skin is said to be susceptible to more than 2,100 diseases. The number and kind of skin diseases are so vast and so varied that the average individual is likely to experience some kind of skin disease in his lifetime. Acne is a skin disorder that afflicts up to 90% of young men and women. Fungal infections of the skin include ringworm of the scalp, seen mostly in children, and fungus infections of the feet, familiarly known as athlete’s foot. Bacterial infections attack the skin, and one of the most distressing is impetigo, which is particularly contagious in children. Eczema is another disorder, a chronic inflammation of the skin due to a sensitivity to one or paore substances. Warts, cold sores and shingles are viral infections of the skin. Psoriasis, a baffling skin disorder characterized by the formation of scaly red patches on the skin, affects at least 3 million people in the United States. The skin is man’s natural garment and must be worn, even when it is a source of much discomfort.
