Daggers And Guns While speaking at a Democratic meeting in Monticello two weeks ago. Governor Roger Branigin was extrolling the virtues of his party and of its accomplishments. One particular item which bothered him considerably was Indiana motorists and what is being done for Hoosier Citizens. He told that 50 Indiana State Troopers have recently been added to the force and praised the entire group when he said. “This fine bunch of men is doing as good a job as there is anywhere in the United States.” But — he also warned that traffic has created a real monster. His remark.

Nightmare For Taxpayers

One section of the medicare act. known as Title 19. under which the federal government is obligated to participate with the states in defraying the medical care costs of the “medically indigent” is leading to an outpouring of federal funds on a scale that appalls even free-spending congressmen. In the rush to get medicare on the statute books, Congress overlooked defining the term “medically indigent”. The result is that, as in the case of New York, state legislation can be drawrrto include a large portion of the population as "medically indigent.” In effect, Title 19 is an open door to a national health servvice on a scale that would bankrupt the country. Press reports say that Congress reel-

when talking about driving and the careless habits of motorists, was, “When you go out on the highways today, it’s almost like someone taking a dagger to your heart, or is shooting at you with a gun.” He asked. “How can you legislate against a man backing out of his driveway at 80 miles per hour?" It all seems to strike a funny note at first. However. Mr. Branigin has learned what we all know and .fail to accept. “Motorists are a selfish, careless lot of people.” — Hoosier Democrat

ed when New York State set eligibility requirements which would permit so many persons to benefit under Title 19 that the federal share world b° in the neighborhood of a staggering $217 million the first year. Congress had estimated that only $238 million would be spent under Title 19 for all the 50 states the first year. In short. Title 19 is an excellent example of legislative irresponsibility at both the state and national levels. All of the fine humanitarian objectives of the welfare state enthusiasts will speedily come to nothing if they lead to the destruction of the financial integrity of government. A move is underway in Congress to restrict spending under Title 19. It cannot come too soon.

El Bayh-Lines A JPJF FROM IV/I SHINGTONSk&B A n M MOHI «r MMM MM u a amrai MKN MM Bayh Urges Teachers To Instruct Students In Practical Politics

CLEVELAND, Ohio. Nov. 26—Senator Birch Bayh (D-Ind.) urged social studies teachers representing all 50 states today to “greatly broaden the exposure of high school students to practical political matters.” Bayh. speaking this afternoon to the 46th annual meeting of the National Council of the Social Studies, said that unless students are encouraged and permitted to participate in grass-roots political efforts, their knowledge of government will be "sterile and empty.” Bayh said the “overriding goal” of social studies teachers is “to produce useful, aware and participating citizens to strengthen and. eventually. to lead our democracy.” He added that “at the core of our democracy ... is government and politics—the common factor that makes order out of chaos, that creates harmony while preserving diversity, that enables a heterogen-

A Matter Os Respect

‘You are one of only three persons entitled to wear these,” the President said, handing to former President Eisenhower a pair of cuff 5 links engraved with the Presidential Seal. General Eisenhower had made j a courtesy call on President Johnson shortly after his operation at Bethesda Naval Hospital outside Washington. The gift was a token of the Pres- . ident s appreciation for Eisenhower’s counsel and advice, and the seal was a symbol of what they shared in common. Along with former President Truman, these two men are the only living Americans truly entitled to make use of the Presidential seal; but in fact,, there has never been any legal means for preventing abuse of the emblem by dollar-seek-ers and prestige-seekers who have placed the seal on thousands of items from souvenirs to solicitation letters, trying to suggest Presidential endorsement. The result has been to generally degrade the seal and to j deceive the oublic. The Great Seal of the United i States—symbol of American author- [ ity—used to be subject to the same I kind of commercial abuse, until the j Congress this year passed my bill to I protect it from a few unscrupulous ,< businessmen who falsely tried to repi resent their products as somehow "official.” The original form of my bill, which ' passed the Senate, would have given protection to the Presidential Seal |as well; but the House of Representa- | fives altered some of the measures in the bill, and the Presidential Seal was not included in the final law. Consequently, next January when the new Congress convenes I will again introduce legislation to prevent degrading abuse of the Presidential Emblem, which should- be reserved only for the functions of that respected office. Personally, I deplore the fact that legislation has been necessary. Respect for our cherished national symbols should be spontaneous and sincere, not imposed by law. For most of our citizens such respect comes naturally; but unfortunately, there are always a few who would spoil it for the many. Therefore, I have felt compelled to seek legal protection for the Great Seal of the United States and for the Presidential Emblem. DHOW «*

ecus people in a sprawling nation to live in freedom.” The Hoosier lawmaker urged the teachers themselves to participate in political activity “because in no other way—not from any textbook ever written or from any speech ever delivered can you remain abreast of political goals and political techniques. In no other way can you truly impart political knowledge in a realistic way to your students.” Bayh said that “the only thing more expensive than education is ignorance. We cannot afford ignorance in this world of ours—a world in which split-second decisions can determine the fate of us all. And. whether we like it or not. most of these decisions are political decisions. For that reason, if for no other, politics and a knowledge of politics are indispensible to the life of every American citizen.”
