Planning new
shopping center |
Plans for a $2 million shopping center were revealed this week by
a group of local business persons who have formed a corporation known
as the L & O Co.
""
The site/located on a triangular section of land at the intersection
of Scott Road and US-27, will be developed to accomodate a number of
varied businesses and provide parking for over 700 vehicles. Tentative
commitments for building occupancy have already been received by the
developers from a financial institution, a food distribution firm, a
department store and drug store. Construction on the complex is
anticipated to begin by late summer.
At present, plans, which have been underway for over one year,
are flexible and can be adapted to the needs of most any business or
firm desiring location in the area. Initial structural design calls for
all main entrances to face US-27, but a total of six drives will service
the area; three to each of the principal arteries surrounding the
center.
L & O maintains an office in Lansing.

The search by St. Johns officials for a new city manager
ended Monday night with commission approval of the hiring
of Harvey Weatherwax. The appointment follows resignation of
Kenneth Greer who had served
as city manager here for 11
years.
Weatherwax, 34, has submitted
his resignation as city manager
at Imlay City where he worked for
the past five years. Prior to
that, he was employed by the city
of Marshall, and his eight-year
tenure there included four years
as assistant city manager.

graduate of the high school there,

In o t h e r action, the commission f o r m a l l y appointed
Thomas Hundley as city clerkA s s e s s o r . " Hundley assumed
duties July 1.
Commissioners discussed an
open house to acquaint residents
with the two new city officials.
No date was set.
Former City Manager Greer
will receive a letter from the
city commending his for his 11
years of service,
THE COMMISSION r e scheduled a public hearing on
the petition of Andrew Kuhnmuench who had requested sanitary sewer on Sickles St. between C h u r c h and L a n s i n g
Streets. The hearing was set for
Aug. 12. It was rescheduled to
give the city time to study costs
of the project, determine what
charges would be made to property o w n e r s and how much'
frontage would have to be charged
to the city.
Several corner lots along the
street are presently being served
by sewers on the intersecting
street, so costs along the Sickles
St. sides of the property would
have to be paid by the city. Commissioner Gerald Irrer pointed
out the city would have to study
cost factors to determine if it
could afford the project under
its austerity program.
The p r o j e c t involves four
p r o p e r t y o w n e r s , including
Kuhnmuench.
The month of August was proclaimed "Stream Appreciation
Month* to tie in with a Michigan
Grand River Watershed promotion.

contractor, asked if City Ordinance 165 was legal or if the

4th of July events
drew large crowds
Members of St, Johns fire department, Rotary .Club and Jaycees provided impetus for an
old fashioned-type Fourth of July
last week and hundreds of county
residents and visitors flocked to
.the city to p a r t i c i p a t e in
activities.
• Festivities began two days In
advance of the holiday, then climaxed with a 30-minute fireworks display at the high school
athletic field. But even then spectators continued to pursue enjoyment by spilling over onto the
• midway of the nearby carnival.
The excitement of this activity
continued throughjhe pastweekend and according Jto Elon Hufnagel, the overall event was well
received.
Part of the attraction was
centered on drawings for three
' major prizes, including two bl- ,
cycles and a 1,000 lb.' steer.
Charles Barnes was the lucky
.meat winner and Linda PrU i
and Steven Cochrun each received a bike.

Cost of water going
up in Maple Rapids
Alward-Plowman

MAPLE RAPIDS-Water, like
religion, is free, but It costs to
get it piped to you and residents
here will begin to have a new
awareness of those costs following recent action by the village
council.
In efforts to alleviate nuisance
Installations and to keep more
accurate tabs on water usage
charges, the council voted to enforce new requirements on water
meters throughout the village.
REFERRING TO the installation of street meters as "a nuisance," the village fathers acted
to lessen requests for such installations by raising the price
from $50 to $125. The price for
installing meters inside homes
or other types of buildings will
remain $75.
In addition to that action, the
council ordered that all water
meters in Maple Rapids be read
r e g u l a r l y and a p p r o p r i a t e
charges billed Jn place of the
current flat fee of $7.50 for 12,000
gallon consumption. This action
followed advice given the council
that some meters in the community had not beenreadfor extended
periods of time, in some cases
several years.
In instances of mulitple dwellings, council indicated that persons or families should pay minimum charges. Village Clerk Mrs
Helen Howe was instructed to advise water users In the village
of the changes In procedure.

•As Christian parents we say,
'When family life stops, delinquency starts,' " Parker continued, "That's why entire households of Witness families are
coming into Detroit from twenty
states, even as far away as Alaska, and one group will be here
from the Virgin Islands."
"Thursday evening's program
— entitled 'What Are You Doing
With Your Life?' - will especially discuss how to find the
Bible remedy for specific family
problems and how to plan a positive program of action," Parker
concluded.
All sessions are free and no
collections will be taken. Over
15,000 are expected to attend,
according to convention off icials.

t
When church bells ring on Sunday morning,
they are calling families to worship! Faith is the
foundation of love, and understanding and hope.
The teachings of Christ give deeper meaning to
all relationships.
Can't guarantee you won't get a 'liekin' foi*
running away. Can't guarantee you won't feel
like running away again sometime.
But can guarantee this: When there's the religious foundation and meaning we're talking
about, any crisis can be seen in clearer perspective
. . . and solved more sensibly.

Answer to crisis: Hun mm if from home!
Run away from love to a world where hate
often prevails. Run away from understanding to
a city that seldom understands. Run from tomorrow's hopes into a desolate and hopeless today.
Sure, Son, there's something wrong at home
—something more spiritual than physical would
be our guess!
To live as a family we need foundation—something firm and sure—to be confident of when nothing is going our way. To live as a family we need
meaning in our relationships; meaning that cannot be eclipsed by the emotions of the moment.

Taste and style are two words
that are bandied about rather
freely in the fashion world
today. While styles change almost as often as the season,
taste is more of an abiding
quality. It is that attribute
which enables those who have
it to choose clothing which
best suits their personalities
without makings them overly
conspicuous or blurring them
completely Into the background.
But good taste in clothing
- d o e s n ' t end with t h e i r
s e l e c t i o n . It also includes
clothes care. Your clothes
tell a lot about you. When
they are spotlessly clean and
freshly pressed,, they speak
quietly and firmly about your
poise, position and personality. They give you that wonderful *at ease" feeling at
b u s i n e s s and social occasions. Their condition is as
important as their style in
creating the i m p r e s s i o n

dress,

As you may know, I am seeking the Republican nomination for the State
House of Representatives in the 88th District.
As an elector myself, I like to know the background and views of the person who is going to represent me and, because it is impossible to talk with each
of you, I have selected this way, hoping to answer some of the questions that you
might have.
My name is William C. Nicholas, I am 36 years of age, married and r e - '
side with my wife, Caroline, and three children; Jan, 11, David, 10, and Jill, 7, at
5008 West Grand River Avenue, Lansing. I have been a resident of the Lansing
area all of my life, graduating from J.W. Sexton High School in 1950.1 attended
Ferris State College and Michigan State University, and now hold a Bachelor of
Law Degree from LaSalle University. During the Korean conflict, I served in the
U.S. Army from 1952-1954.
I am a member of the wacousta Masonic Lodge No. 359, F, & A.M., and
my civic activities include Member of the Watertown Township Charter Study
Committee, President for two years of the Bretton Woods PTA, President of The
Capital Area Justices of the Peace Association, Deacon at the First Presbyterian
Church in Lansing. Also, was a member of the Young Republicans.
As an active Justice of the Peace for eight years, I have participated extensively in township government. For example, I am familiar with the tax base of
the several counties, _which I hope to represent. I know and understand taxation,
fiscal reform, court re-organization and re-districting. My political experience
has been limited to that of an elected official. This experience (as a participant in
a governmental unit) has given me a thorough knowledge of the functions of
government. This insight should markedly reduce the period of time required to
become an effective representative of our district.
I feel that only a legislator with knowledge of the operations of government
can bring you*, the people, The representationyouneed, I will be a representative
of all thepeople,RepubllcanandDemocrat,alike,and I will not be a "yes* man to
any administration.
• Let us'put a man into office who Is aware of the problems of our district
and can effectively represent all of the people.
For these reasons, I solicit your support and vote lti the primary. I can
only promise not to let you donw. Let Us choose'capability and experience and a
forthright .attitude on August 6, 1968,
Thank you, *

Want to buy a handgun?
While the nation debates need
for tighter gun control laws, sale
of handguns In Clinton County is
continuing at a brisk pace.
During the first six months of
1968, 282 h a n d g u n s were registered at the Clinton Sheriff's
Department, with the busiest half
of the year remaining — the six
months that include hunting seasons and Christmas.
It looks like gun registrations
for the year will top the 500.
mark. Last year 448 guns were
registered.
Handguns are increasing in
popularity, b a s e d on figures
since 1962. In that year 194
were r e g i s t e r e d with Sheriff
Percy J. Patterson. In 1963 the
figure inched up to 243 and in 1964
it was 269.
Registrations in 1965 Jumped
to 356, declined the next year
to 331, then jumped to 448 a year
ago.
I
'
WHILE HANDGUNS ARE popular Items among sportsmen,
Patterson notes that the number
of guns registered to women
d u r i n g the p a s t year has increased.
If you are a law abiding citizen, it's relatively easy to acquire a handgun. The only age
limit is that you must be over
21. (No age restriction applies
'
for p u r c h a s e of shotguns pr
rifles).
Legal acquisition of a handgun begins at the Sheriff's Department where prospective purchasers are required to make
application for a" license to purchase a pistol or revolver. The
application blank you must sign
states:
"I am a citizen of the United
States and have resided in this
state more than six months and
have never been adjudged insame
or convicted of a felony, during
the e i g h t y e a r p e r i o d Immediately preceding the date of
ths application . •.",
*
The application is made out
in triplicate. Only the name, age
and residence of the prospective
purchaser is required, then the
Information' must be notarized
and the sheriff must grant his
approval.
At this point, the purchaser is
ready to make a deal. The same
forms are taken to the dealer or
Individual selling the gun. He
must fill out the backside, indicating the make, model and
serial number of the gun, along
with the date of sale. If the gun
is acquired through a mailorder
firm, the forms must be filled
out just as they are if it is purchased locally.
One copy of the form remains

to the Sheriff's. Deand one goes to the
State Police Record
East Lansing. t
ONLY ACQUISITION of the
handgun has been noted at this
point. The weapon then must be
registered via another triplicate
form. The individual provides his
name, birth date, place of birth,
race, weight, height, colorof hair
and eyes, along with occupation.
A right thumb print also is r e quired.
The Sheriff's Department reNAMES OF TWO references
cords thebrand,model'andserial
number of the gun and inspects must be provided and the appliif for safety. Prominently im- cant is required to sign the form
printed on the form is the statement, "This is not a permit to
carry a concealed weapon."
All l e g a l requirements for
possession of a handgun have
been met,' at this stage. If the
gun is used for hunting or target
practice, it must be transported
In a locked container, such as
car trunk or glove compartment,
If you are stopped in a vehicle
and your handgun is not under
lock and key, then you may be
charged with unlawfully carrying
a concealed weapon.
Permits to carry concealed
weapons are given only in rare
circumstances.

MOSTLY
For MEN
One of the- most useful of
vegetables Is the cucumber. It's
a fine Ingredient for salads and
properly prepared an excellent
course for any dinner.
Now that the season for homegrown varieties Is at hand, let's
talk about ways of preparation
which may vary a little from how
you've prepared cucumbers before.
A favorite at our house Is
this recipe for sour cream cucumbers. In a bowl which has a
cover, mix 1-1/2 tablespoons of
cider vinegar, 3/4 teaspoon of
salt, 1 scant tablespoon of sugar,
and 1 cup of dairy sour cream.
Stir.
Add a dash of pepper, freshly
ground, 2 tablespoons of chopped
11
chives, 2 tablespoons of chopped
fresh dill (or 1 tablespoon of
dill seed), 1 teaspoon of celery
seed, and 1/4 teaspoon of dried
mustard.
Peel a large white onion and
slice as thin as possible. Peel
2 firm, fresh cucumbers and
score the cucumbers lengthwise
with the tines of a fork. Slice
thin.
Add the onion and the cucumber
to the sour cream mixture and
toss lightly. Cover and store in
the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours
before serving. This will serve 6
people, '
Here Is another method for
serving cucumbers which is wonderful if you can obtain small
baby cucumbers on the market.
Peel the cucumbers leaving
small bands of the skin at regular intervals for a d d i t i o n a l
color for this dish. You'll need
enough to make one quart when
sliced in 1/2 inch slices.
Combine 1/4 cup white vinegar, 1/4 cup "water, 4teaspoons
of sugar, 1 teaspoon celery seed,
1/4 teaspoon dried dill. Pour
over cucumbers.
Slice thin one medium-sized
white onion and stir Into cucumbers and marinade. Add 1/4
cup Italian style salad dressing.
SfcggT LONGHORN CHEESE SALE
MILD STVLE & 1 6Q± BCIKA SHARP .KuTfr
COVER AND STORE for several hours, better for overnight.
In fact the cucumbers and onions
will continue to gain flavor if
stored under refrigeration for
several days.
For the Italian style salad
dressing, mix 1/3 cup cider
vinegar with 1/2 cup of olive
oil. Add sugar or sugar substitute and garlic salt to your
taste. If you want a real garlicky
dish, use fresh crushed garlic
in the amount you like.

Have you put away those wools,
garments and household items
you'll not be using during the
summer7 Have you taken care
that those you will continue to use
are clean and moth proof?
Whether stored during certain
parts^ of the year, or worn the
year around, woolen items require cleaning and care to keep
them at their best and for them to
give thetf^best service to you.
C l e a n wdbls1^
are less likely to be damaged by moths
and c a r p e t
beetles.
If y o u ' v e
seen any evidence
of
clothes moths
or c a r p e t
beetles around your home,
sure to keep all woolen items
in tightly closed plastic bags.
It's a pretty good practice even
if you've not seen evidence of
these pests, since Infestation can
develop rapidly once the "insects
gain entrance.
WOULD YOU r e c o g n i z e a
clothes moth or carpet beetle If
you saw one in either the larval
or adult stage of development?
Pvtpn^lnn Bulletin 456. "Carpet
?SStl£§ 5 n d Clothes Moths,* and
available at no cost from the
Cooperative Extension Office in
Ithaca, (St. Johns-Corunna)helps
you recognize' these household
enemies and suggests ways of
control. The bulletin also discusses pests such as bedbugs
and fleas. These latter insects
are sometimes picked up in travels, so it helps to be aware of
their appearance and control. .

CLEANSER.
Use special care
Commercial dry cleaners can
give added protection with mothproofing treatments. Some cleaners offer the service on a year
around basis while others do it
only in the Spring and early Summer. Extra security Is provided
by using mothproof chests, closets or other containers for storage. Fresh air and sunshine combined with thorough brushing are
enemies of clothes moths and
other insects. So regular airing,
gunning and brushing^ill be helpful especially fortj^gse, jttems

Lock all doors and windows

Records reveal
herd effiency
Everyone examines records,
but one that most dairymen need
to inspect more closely is the
reproductive efficiency of the
herd, according to Louis Boyd,
Michigan State University dairy
scientist.
These figures can tell him if
his services and culling are adequate, or whether lengthy calving
intervals are crippling herd profits.
WHILE THERE are several
measures of reproductive efficiency, a recent study at MSU has
shown services per conception
ana" days from first service to
conception to be the best lndl-»
cators, Boyd says.
Use of a pregnancy-check program makes it possible to determine the days Irom first service
to conception, but It is more accurate and easier to count the
number of calves born and compare this to the number of services needed, he states.
THE DAIRY scientist offers
these norms for determining If
improvement Is needed in the
T r a c e elements—like iron,
manganese and zinc—can often be
applied much m o r e efficiently
and economically directly to the
leaf instead of the soil, according to Dr S. H. Wlttwer, director
of Michigan State University's
Agricultural Experiment Station.
For example, it would take five
tons of ferric sulphate applied to
the soil to get the same result
on sorghum as five pounds applied to the leaf at the right
time.
reproductive efficiency of the
herd;
—At least 60 per cent (30 out
of 50) of the cows should have a
normal calf from first breedings
(only one service).
_The entire herd should average no more than 1.6 services
per calf born throughout the
year, (In counting the number of
calves born, count twins as one
birth since only one cow was
involved.)

warned. "Each individual farmer
must figure out for himself the
type of planting which will also
complement his soil' conservation practices and machinery

While farmers are doing much
less tillage today than before,
the soil scientist suggests that
most could still consider working the land less in spring. Some
farmers still work the field to
death—literally "unplow* the
land to destroy soil structure.and
decrease permeability, he said.
COOK POINTED outthatplowing-planting can Increase the
water ,holding capacity of the
plowed layer 85 per cent andreduce soil losses by 40 per cent,
he said. The rough surface from
minimum tillage delays surface
runoff and allows more time for
water to soak in. The soil Is
also "looser" with greater water
and air pore space,
"On the average, most farmers
could save $5-$6 per acre by
doing less tillage on their land,
plus increase yields by allowing
the water to permeate the soil,

Some agencies
just hang on
Thirty-three, years ago the Rural Electrification Administration was brought into
being by congressional action and was
charged with the specific task of electrifying the American farm. That task has
long since been accomplished. The Journal
of Commerce has summarized the history
of the REA and its present status in a
revealing editorial which s'h o w s how
government agencies seldom die—they just
get bigger, and the REA, has become an
outstanding example of the rule rather than
the exception.
Long ago/ the REA extended its operation to telephone services, and its power
empire has spread from the farm into
towns and communities. Low-cost loans
have been made by the REA to finance local
cooperatives for the purpose, of discourag-,
ing extension of commercial utilities. It
lends funds from- the federal treasury at
2.5 per cent, for. which government and
the taxpayers now pay 6 per cent. Although
98.4 per cent of the farms are served by
central station electric service, and one
would think the REA-requirements would*
taper off, the r e v e r s e is true. The R E A i s
asking for new capital from the taxpayers
ranging up to a rate of $700 million a year
during the next 15 y e a r s , compared to the
1967 level of $353 million.
As the Journal of Commerce concludes:
"So what started out as a simple government-financed effort to get electricity to
the American farm .has how become a'
government-financed effort to keep com-'
mercial power producers from'.getting
there. Thus the demand for more ^funds
grows, as the'/number of American farms
steadily diminishes," Ahd^still,our legislative representatives claim that/federal
spending has been cut to the bone. '."-•"- v

ever done before^-so far that we seem to
be in danger of forgetting that the back side
of the coin of freedom c a r r i e s a c r e s t which
reads "responsibility."
" "In no other country do young people
have the degree of freedom allowed in the
U.S. today," Robert C, Gunness, president
of Standard Oil C o mp any (Indiana), told
members of Tulsa Junior Achievement at
their Annual Meeting. But, he said, "your
personal freedom—if unbridled—is an intrusion on your neighbor, who also has
rights of his own."
When you go to college, he said, *. . .1
would suggest that you do not make it your
first order of business to try to reshape
the place according to your own ideas of the
moment. Let me recommend a decent r e gard for the fact that the institutions you
will attend are the product of time, money,
and thought contributed over a long period,
by a large number of people—many of whom
were at least your equals in intellect and
wisdom. *
"None of man's institutions is by.any
means perfect, and one of your jobs will be
to improve on those you inherit. But I would
hope that you will go about the job in r e sponsible fashion. There are legitimate
avenues of protest in a free society.. .Your
real .challenge is not to sit-in but to bulldup."
Without the tremendous productivity of
the American economy, Gunness pointed
out, we would not be debating the merits
of universal higher education or how to
preserve political freedom in the world,
rebuilding o u r ' c i t i e s , trying to eliminate
poverty, going to the moon, or warding off
world famine because we couldn't afford to
undertake such tasks.

A Massachusetts man has been burled
beneath the 18th green at his favorite
golf course; I guess he was dead.
If I am ever burled on a golf course
it will be because I committed suicide
there and no one would drag my body
away.
Golf Is an incredibly stupid game. Hit
a ban and then look for It and then hit It
again. I don't know why I play. Tennis is
really my game but I can never get a
court. It has been 24yearssincelplayed
tennis which will give you an Idea how
crowded the courts are—and how hard
I've tried to get one.
I often tell people I was once tennis
champ of Port Huron. Usually, I tell them
after I play golf with them.Iwantthem to
understand that golf Is too slow a game
for an athlete 'of my vigorous abilities. .
Any old man can play golf, I tell them
with a sneer as I pay what I owe for
losing 18 holes, three balls and one
friend who was my partner.
"Yes," the golfers .with my money
usually say, "but fat old men can't play
tennis so It is easy _ to see why you
switched to golf."
That's another thine I've discovered
about golf—a lot of wise guys play It.
They are always saying things.that upset
my game and my stomach.
For instance, I slam ,my usual drive
smack down the center, at least 30 feet.
"That won't hurt you,", says H a r v e y .

Fitzgerald

I felt the article on "Gun Legislation* by James Fitzgerald
.was in bad taste. What has happened to our paper when it must
take a biased attitude?
I'have long felt that our freedom of the press is being misused by a few to promote personal peeves. If Mr Fitzgerald
doesn't like firearms, then it is
his own personal view,, not mine.
Why should I be harrassed by
legislation that will only hurt the

hoodlum?

NRA is wrong in assuming the

1 can't prove he is wrong, but
can he prove he is right. I think
not—if history repeats itself,
check your history books about
your Old World Countries that
were required to register their
firearms. Some might say "Oh
it can't happen here"—I wonder?
'Mr Fitzgerald contends that

MICHIGAN MIRROR
Promising career
By W. E, DOBSON
Great Lakes fishing
•
being rehabilitated
Natural resources In the Great
Lakes provides one of the rare
opportunities of our time, according to Dr Wayne H. Tody,
-chief of the Fish Division of the
'Michigan Department of Conservation. .Dr Tody notes that some
50 million acres of water inlakes
Michigan, Huron and Superior
offer a unique flshpries habitat
found nowhere' else In the world.*
Effective m a n a g e m e n t can
bring rehabilitation to the almost-depleted species of gamefish, he said. Such management
will bring both economical and
sociological rewards to Michigan. A state image of blue lakes
filled with sport fish, coupled
with ampleparks and recreational faculties, will build the tourist
trade. The introduction of coho
salmon to, Lake Michigan has
already i n c r e a s e d lakefront
property values some 10 per
cent, he stated. \
r
"IN THE FUTURE we can expect the. catch of large sport
fish such as coho and chlnook
salmon, lake trout and steelhead
to reach a few million fish," he
predicted. 'Many m i l l i o n s of
days annually will be spent by
people in the pleasant pursuit of
these t r o p h y fish;-Whenwe
sprinkle the effect of this new
recreation on our urban population, It predictably will have a
measurable i n f l u e n c e on the
problems that we now face of
social unrest and disorder. I
think that this effect will be immeasurably valuable to our society," he concluded.
The decline of valuable predai tory species began with extensive
commercial fishing operations in
the post-Civil War era. Lake
trout, whitefish, blue pike and
walleye were sought, and in those
days brought afinemarketprice.
Exploitation of natural resources
for profit was not confined to the
Great Lakes. Destruction of forests, strip mines and other misuse of r e s o u r c e s by private
enterprise was consistent with
the times.
Exploitive commercial fishing
leveled off and remained fairly
''- constant until-1940. Sea-lamprey
then Invaded the Great Lakes,
almost completely eliminating,
the few remaining g a m e f l s h .
Lake Huron today is full of lowvalue fish. The lake is dominated
by the alewlfe. There are few
whitefish, essentially no lake
' trout and only a 'remnant of
walleyes.
Whenever anyftshofhighvalue
appears, Dr Tody stated, commercial net fishermen immediately concentrate on them. The
fish harvest is high for a year
or two, and then declines to the
previous low level.

of .fish life. Once rehabilitation
is complete, the production and
yield can equal or excel that
of former years.
The 1968 Legislature gave the
conservation department various
authorities to control and regulate both sport and commercial
fishing in the Great Lakes.
Sea Lamprey control has been
accomplished, but a continuing
program is needed. New hatcheries are needed toartificiallyproduce salmon smolts' and other
species of predatory fish. '_
\ Fish passage around dams and
other barriers in rivers and
streams must be provided, says
pr Tody. Cost of this development is estimated at $2.5 million
over the next ten years. Because
of the growing number of enthusiasts, public access sites, boat
launching facilities, m a r i n a s ,
harbors and other developments
will be needed. Estimated cost:
$10 million for land, $80 million
for construction.
Financing of such projects is
a major stumbling block, especially in face of current federal
cuts in spending. One solution
has beenproposed: a $435 million
bonding proposal will be on the
November b a l l o t with $100
million earmarked for recrea-
tional facilities and $335 million
for water pollution controls.

THE BASIC AIM is to make
the best use of fallout protection
existing In each locality. These
priorities will be generally applicable toward a community's
capability to operate effectively
in nuclear attack or'peacetime
disaster. While the guidance is
applicable on a nationwide basis,
it is recognized that there will
necessarily be adaptations at the
local level to reflect the actual
conditions and state of develop•ment in the specific areas.
National p r o g r a m emphasis
for 1969 specifies four major
priority areas:
Priority 1—Community shelter planning; emergency opera.. tions p l a n n i n g (including inc r e a s e d readiness planning);
work associated with development of shelter; and appropriate
training support of these items.
Priority 2—Direction and control (protected EOC); a t t a c k
w a r n i n g system; emergency
communications;
radiological
; system; and appropriate training support for these items.
Priority 3—Support emergenc y functions—fire prevention and
defense, law and order, rescue,
emergency health and medical
service, emergency welfare, re- <
sources management, p u b l i c
works utilities, transportation—
with appropriate training support, and supporting public education programs such as Medical Self-Help and CDJ Adult Education.

Uncle, It seems, slices the
bacon mighty thin. There is only
so much a county, or city, civil
defense director can do. Everything nowdays has to have a
priority, and this is how, for
example, a_ CD director gets
sliced.
Office of Civil Defense has announced program emphasis to
guide state and local officials In
developing their CD programs
for FY 1969 (Fiscal Year that
begins on July 1). Program emphasis assigns \ priority effort

nation in the world cannot afford to provide enough ships to
protect its own vital interests.

which should alarm every thinking American to the need for
immediate action, no action is

allergy is the best way to control
it. Moving to other parts of the
country, or in the case of Michigan, to the northern part of the

to try several medications on the
market and in so doing mix the
drugs which can aggravate the
condition or do bodily harm.
