sword and shield pots and foxholes but forget the fallout and blast shelters for their dependends—and for the civilians, to include manufacturers, that have to support them in the field. I will not pretend to know the figures, but I suggest that many a military base (if they even consider it) relies upon the neighboring towns or cities to supply fallout shelters for dependents who live both on and off the bases. The point I wish to make is that the 'shield' for the civilians consists of both active (military) and passive I (civil defense) defenses. The active defenses, in large measure, have either been dismantled (NIKE) or denied (ABM). The passive defenses have been downgraded and 'outprioritied.'" The CD chief also cited an article in the Journal of Civil Defense on Technology — America's Miracle by Edward Teller.

portant element for international sea power. When asked if the Neutrality Treaty wouldn't serve as a guarantee to keep the canal open for world use, he was quick to say it's "Nothing more than a lie!" The CD chief went on to say that when the chief negotiator arrived back in Panama from Washington, D. C., and went on radio and television with his speech to the general assembly of Panama he had little good to say about the Neutrality Treaty. The negotiator said he had been against the Neutrality Treaty at first but recognized that it was this treaty that would sell the Panama Canal Treaty to the Senators in Washington. The negotiator went on to tell his people to rest assured that once the gringos were out of the Canal Zone, under the terms of the Panama Canal Treaty, they would never permit them to return. Strider said, "That may be but one example of the good faith we are suposed to expect." The Ohio native said he has been in Panama for 10 years and has very good Panamian friends. The Panamians, he said, are no different than Americans. Most are very hard workers and good people. Unfortunately, he continued, the | constant propaganda in the newspapers, radio and television which are government controlled, keep preaching a doctrine of hatred for the gringos! Strider said only time will tell if Panama and the Canal Zone are but one small area that are a matter of concern for the U. S. He continued by saying he hoped the people in the j U. S. put more thought into I protecting themselves, their | neighbors and their cities from a | larger peril. The Milford visitor was born in j Cleveland, Ohio and also lived in | Meadville, Pa. He graduated from | the Culver Military Academy, West Point and the University of Virginia. He was in the Army for 22 years. ( Strider has two sons, Thomas j Charles of Atlanta, Ga., and James Paul, with the Army in Germany.

Letters to the editor
Spread Christmas spirit
Dear Editor: What an idea! What a time! What a day! The fine, young Methodist minister in Bella Vista, Ark., preached on “Christmas Today” last Sunday. Well, I appreciated his ideas of the real meaning of Christmas. It is not toys, trinkets and trash and Santa — as many pretend. Christ came to bring life — the more abundant life — not more things, but more love of living and more love in bringing a better life to others. A person with Christian faith can bring the Spirit of Christmas any day to someone in need — someone who needs to know others really care for them as a person — just as they are now.
Complaint lodged
Dear Editor: We would like to lodge a complaint. We are concerned over the condition of the Syracuse-Milford Road and many other roads in the county. The road conditions have done a great deal of damage to many area vehicles. The tar and gravel that was put on the roads to Leesburg mishap injures one An Etna Green man, Lacy Francis. 44, sustained a bump to the head and complained of soreness in the shoulder following a one-vehicle mishap near Leesburg on Sunday evening, Aug. 27. Francis told county officers he swas westbound on CR 700 N, about one-half mile northeast of Leesburg, when the left rear tire on his truck apparently blew out. The truck then went out of control and crashed into a utility pole causing $3,000 damage to the truck and $250 to the pole. The driver did not require medical treatment for his injuries. Mon charged with Syracuse thefts A Ligonier man was arrested Saturday morning in connection with the spring thefts of two Syracuse businesses. Charles Donald Childress, 20, was arrested on a charge of burglary (class c felony) and is being held in lieu of $5,000 bond. He was arrested on a Superior Court warrant.

As we think of our plans for observing Christmas in our family this year, let’s omit all war toys and toys that may instill subtle racial prejudice and bigotry. Christmas means giving of yourself, your time, your energies and skills for those same people that Christ ministered unto — the lonely, the lame, the sick and the discouraged. Our personal ministry can open doors for those same people in our midst. He shared what He had — that is all we are requested to do. May we spread the Spirit of Christmas through the rest of the year. Sincerely, Geo. D. Weybright Syracuse, Ind. 46567
repair them was nice, but it has chipped paint, cracked windshields and made extra work to clean our cars. Maybe other possibilities should be looked into, like rolling the gravel after it has been put over the tar, rather than the way it has been done, without ruining our vehicles.
