Letters to the editor
(Continued from page 4) carried. Additional students came in but could not be put to work due to numbers. The newly formed Key Club started the ball rolling. Mrs. Rossi and Bill Dixon are the organizers of that activity. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis, Mr. and Mrs. Kesler. Mr. Dickerson. Mr Brannock and Mrs. Peterson picked up and cleaned. Mr. Traviolia tried to piece together Chief Wawasee. Mrs. Schumm and Mr. Keiper came in to aid the science department. Messrs. Bob and Bill Kitson had to have gas masks supplied by the Syracuse Fire Department in order to clear out the pile of chemicals left behind. Had another chemical been added to the existing pile, deadly cyanide would have resulted. As it was, all persons who inhaled the fumes would be subject to health, specifically liver, problems Mrs. Rider. Mrs. Elam. Mr. Robinson. Mr Alford, and Dr. and Mrs. Robinson also came in assessed and cleaned. Ms. Brouwer, not only cleaned, but also reported the item stolen which ultimately led to the arrests. Os course, Mr Hadley and Mr. Stiffler and the custodial staff, Mrs. Kern and Messrs. Longenbaugh. Robie, White, Grindle. Hamilton bore the brunt of the clean-up responsibility, replacing glass and recording damage — all of this help on a Mother's Day Sunday. You can imagine my sense of relief and excitement when Detective Tom Kitch called to report he had apprehended the boys involved. Our , total community thanks goes out to the Syracuse City Police, the Kosciusko County Police, and the State Police, specifically Sheriff Al Rovenstine, Detective Tom Brindle, and Officers Tom Perzanowski. Bob Houser, Steve Knispel. Corky Wong. Dan Gallmeier. Rich Mikel, and Anita Peterson for their prompt and careful actions. A special commendation must go to Tom Kitch for his swift and professional detective work. You can be assured that we will do all we can to prosecute these individuals as far as the law allows. I would personally like to see any such incident involve, as punishment. complete restitution, work towards cleaning up our three communities, and a public apology to our student body, as a part of the sentence. We realize mistakes are made and that we do not need to be vindictive; however, our students also realize that for every rule broken, there is a consequence, and the more serious the action, the more serious the consequence. Good discipline is the backbone of the school Our students know it and believe other student and adults should realize it. also. I should here reiterate what I stated to our students. The young men involved are not to be considered typical Goshen High School students. The actions of a few can give a bad reputation to a group, and we should have enough class and intelligence to realize that. Finally. I would like to again congratulate the student body for your concern, your help, your support and for all the things that set you apart as being the special ladies and gentlemen that you are. I thank God for you, for the way things finally turned out, and for the opportunity to be your principal. Thank you. Dr. Howard J. Hull, Principal Wawasee High School

Balboa. Panama Dear Editor: The following comments are on “What is truth” by Rev.

SAVE SOCIAL SECURITY
As 1 travel around Indiana meeting with various citizen groups, I’ve become concerned that many elderly Hoosiers are frightened that their Social Security benefits might be cut. 1 always assure our senior citizens that no benefits will be cut. Many, however, are still afraid, having been wrongfully frightened by a whole host of demagogues attempting to advance their own careers on the fears of our elderly. It’s imperative that older Americans know that the benefits promised to them by this government over the years are provided. They have nothing to fear except the anxiety caused by those who attempt to capitalize on fanning the fears of others. This is not say that the financing of Social Security has no problems. The President has established a bipartisan study commission to review the long-term financing problems of this vital social program and recommend solutions that will not adversely effect those individuals now on Social Security or who will be in the near future. In order for us to save Social Security for future generations, the debate must be free of partisan demagoguery. To help find a responsible solution which does not jeopardize current and future benefits due to our elderly, 1 have introduced legislation that will save Social Security upwards of S7OO million a year. My bill has strong bipartisan support in both the House and the Senate and the President’s study commission has decided to review it: My bill would limit Social Security benefits to
took place in Syracuse. Some bleeding hearts took exception to the action of the father and the police. In an article to the editor I stated that many times I faced “dog attacks” when a mail carrier. I quoted an incident that took place in Hammond, Ind., and the final outcome of the case is that the dog owner will not pay any damages or doctor or hospital bills because he has declared bankruptcy. No one knows about a dog’s actions when it is running. Our neighborhood is having the spring animal problem. The solution is. “If your dog attacks, you should be fined and forced to pay all damages. If an attempt to escape the penalty, then a jail term of one year.” Claude A. Boland

non-resident aliens. At the present time we are paying about SI billion a year in Social Security benefits to people living outside the United States. Some of these people are American citizens who ha\e retired to live in another country. But 70 percent of them are not American citizens. These people have previously worked in the U.S. and have paid into the Social Security system. The only problem is that many are receiving more than they ever paid in because of our compassionate efforts to help our own elderly citizens. In one case a person w ho was not a U.S. citizen paid $25 into Social Security, but has collected more than SII,OOO in benefits after moving back to his native country. Another paid $397 in Social Security and has collected $42,000 in benefits. Because of the lower standard of living in many foreign countries, these alien Social Security recipients have adopted many children and taken on much younger spouses so that their dependents can receive this largess from American taxpayers. My bill would not effect American citizens living abroad. It would give to aliens living abroad only what they paid into Social Security, no more. By doing so we can save S7OO million a year to help our own senior citizens. 1 don’t believe we can afford to drain off Social Security funds to support aliens living outside our country. The intent of Social Security is to provide a retirement benefit to ensure that the elderly who live in our nation can live with dignity.
