Icmkexpansion completed
ST. JOHNS—A second major
phase In the current remodelingexpansion program at Clinton National Bank reached completion
this week with the opening of the
customer loan office in the former Consumers Power location
on Walker St. in St. Johns.
The new offices, which were
opened Monday morning, will allow expanded loan service and
offers customers the convenience
of two outside entrances along
With a third access through the
main banking area. The outside
entrances are located on Walker
St. and at the south end of the
Clinton National Bank parking
lot.
The latter also allows customer access to other areas of the
bank building.
The new office houses the complete loan operation of the bank
and features individual areas for
loan officers to discuss transactions in privacy with bank customers. Loan secretary-tellers
will assist officers and customers in completing transactions,
applications or loan payments and
the former loan teller windows
in the main lobby of the bank
will be no longer in use.
ACCORDING TO senior loan
officer Paul Schueller, anyone
desiring information or consideration on a loan will be directed
to the new quarters.
The opening of the enlarged
department follows completion of
the bank's drive-in and parking
lot which was put into service
late last fall. The location of
the loan service area was coordinated with the parking area
to facilitate custtjpie|r;;a(ccess to
the bank and both phases are part
of an extended expansion program slated for completion later
this year.

Forty-two area iarmers and
farm implement dealers toured
the county last Tuesday as guests
of the New Holland Farm Equipment Company.
The specific purpose of the
tour was to acquaint the men with
the New Holland bale wagon by
visiting farms where the machine
was in operation.
Vi M i l e W e s t of Consumers P o w e r

According to Thomas Jones,
district sales manager and guide
for the tour, "We wanted to
show the farmers in this area
how the bale wagon could be integrated into their system by
showing how other farmers utilize the machine.*
The bale wagon, which comes
in six different models, can load,
haul, stack, dump and-reload up
to 100 tons of hay tri an 8 hour
day. Depending on the model used
as many as 80 bales can be hauled
in one load.
The first farm visited was Joe

They were very satisfied witH
their machine and said that it

HASTINGS—Two double-plays
Jn the early innings of the first
game and the swlft-footedness of
Larry Wakefield in the second
game resulted in St. Johns gaining a double header victory over
Hastings Saturday.
The two victories boosted the
Redwings1 league record to 3-5
and their season's mark to 4-6.
Pitcfler Jim Schumaker picked
up the first victory throwing six
strike outs and two walks for
a filial score of 3-2. The loss
was taken by Carl Norris who
went the distance.
The two double plays early in
the first game cut off any opportunity for Hastings to score.
The Wings had the bases loaded
in the fourth with two outs when
Bob Elliott, who hit a ground ball
combined with an error, drove in
two runs.
Next Jim Schumaker on a
squeeze bunt drove in Jim Harte
from third for the winning run.
Redwings getting hits were Rod
Pasch (2), Larry Hayes (1), Jim
Harte (1), Tom Rasdale (1) and
Jim Schumaker (1).
The second game was scoreless for Hastings. The Wings
grabbed the lead early i n the
first inning when Wakefield singled and stole second and made
the winning run from second after
Ballinger singled.
IN THE FOURTH inning, Elliott tripled with Ballinger and
Harte on base and drove in the
final two runs, for a winning
score of 3-0.
Lewis did the pitching with
Wakefield catching. Those getting
hits were Pasch (1), Wakefield
(1), Ballinger (1), Elliott (1) and
Lewis (1).
According to Bob Kramer,
Redwings statistician, the two
g a m e s were good defensive
games and well played as can be
evidenced by the low number of
errors and close scores.

Boyce: big man
in Spartan lineup
EAST LANSING—His teammates call him "pygmy," but
what Michigan State's Gary
Boyce lacks in size he makes
up for with determination and
solid ability.
The 5-7, 170-pound senior
from St. Johns is one of the
prime reasons that the Spartans
'are enjoying one of their finest
baseball seasons in many years.
Gary packs a lot of power in
his small frame as evidenced
by his 10 career home runs in
three years of varsity competition.
But admittedly, Gary doesn't
go for the home run.
"My job as the lead-off hitter
is to get on base anyway I
can. With the kind of strong
hitters coming up behind me,
that's the important thing."
Spartan c o a c h Danny Litwhiler agrees.
"Gary's tough to pitch to and
he has a very good eye for
bad pitches," he says, "When
he gets on base we'll usually
get him in."
WITH EXCELLENT speed, it's
not too uncommon to see Gary,
make some" sensational catches
at his leftfield position. He gets
a good jump on the ball and has
the facility to judge how far he
has got to go to catch it.
Gary carried a overall average of .337 into this season and
through the Spartans' first 32
games, he is hitting a lusty
.378.
He has moved into second
place for the most career hits
with 130 onlv two hAhlnrt AiiAmerican John Biedenbach's 132
set in 1964 through 1966, He
has a l r e a d y eclipsed Chuck
Mathews' four year career mark
of most runs (87) with 88 in
three seasons.
Gary and his teamma'tes are
pointing towards the Spartans'
first Big Ten championship since
1954. And you can be sure Gary
will be doing his very large
part to reach that goal.

Choosing such footwear for the
family may be one of mother's
most important shoe purchases.
Comfort, wear, good fit, easy
care all become important purchasing, f a c t o r s . Some individuals give sneakers hard and
almost constant wear. They need
to be as well made as other
shoes. They must be sturdy and
designed for good foot support.
Clothing specialists at Michigan State University offer some
tips when buying sneakers for
anyone. Firmly woven materials
are a must. Most popular, for
uppers, include canvas, poplin,

nylon or blends of polyester and
cotton or nylon and cotton are
the usual fibers.

Students who are physically
unable to attend school are eligible for this program. Mrs.
Pocuis teaches on the average
of 12 students a week either
at their home or in one of the

schedule varies from day today.
She obtains assignments from
the teachers each day and assists
the students in any way she can
so that they can maintain the
receives from two to four hours
of instruction a week.
"It's gratifying for me to work
with these students. They all
appreciate the help. Many of
them develop new interests and
become very motivated.'' she
said.
A problem that has occurred
is that some of the students like
to stay home. That's why she

a matter of letting a student know
that someone cares.
"It takes a tremendous amount
of cooperation on the' part of
the teachers, students and the
parents to make this a workable
program," she said.
"One of the most noticeable
aspects of the program," she
said, "is that it helps develop

King's part time
job creates stir
DEWITT TWO—The question
of whether DeWitt T o w n s h i p
Supervisor Milton King should
continue his part time job at
Oldsmoblle created a mild storm
at the township board's regular
meeting Monday night.
King, who returned to a p a r t time job as a mechanic at Olds
April 13, noted In his remarks
before the Boaqd, "(There a r e
some men who like to fish or
golf in their spare time. My
recreation is fixing trucks.
"Because t h i n g s got slack
around the office, I needed something to do, so I went back (to
work," King said.
He stressed that he was a
full time supervisor and. only
works a M l 48-hour week when
Nursing is the most populous
of the heajth professions in the
U.S. There a r e more than 1.8
million people in the nation's
active nursing force; 680,000 a r e
registered nurses, 345,000 are
licensed practical nurses and
over 800,000 a r e nurses' aides,
orderlies and attendants.

no commitments to his job as
supervisor need to be carried
out.
Some Board members, however expressed open opposition
to King's part time Job.
William Johns, board member,
questioned the availability of the
supervisor for a person on a day
shift where King is leaving his
office at 2:30 p.m.
Another boardmember,
Herbert Hardtke, said that the
Job of supervisor was a full time
Job.
Speaking as a property owner
rather than as a police chief,
Bruce Angell said: "Anything
after 5 p.m. is a man's own
time, but a supervisor should
be available from 8. a.m. to
5 p.m.
In an i n t e r v i e w after the
meeting, King said that he plans
to go to the management at Olds
to ask for a change in hours.
If they would not allow the change,
then King said, he would take
a leave of- absence from his job
at the Olds plant.

By ANNETTE WHITE
News Society Editor
Anyone yearning for a touch of

Mrs. Rasey became interested
in antiques several years ago and
started to collect therp for a
"future investment". The couple
moved to their present location
from Lansing about 14 years ago
arid with the buildings surrounding their large farm home were
able to go into the restoring and
selling of the antiques they had

Two board positions
on June school ballot
ST. JOHNS—Voters of the St.
Johns School District will elect
two board members at the annual election on Monday, June 14.
The terms of members Alden
• Livingston and Leon Schumaker
expire on June 30. Nomination
petitions for Livingston's r e . election have been filed in the
district business office. Schumaker has not yet d e c i d e d
whether or not to seek another
term.
Anyone desiring to become a
candidate can obtain nomination
petitions in the business office
located in the high school. Candidates must have at least 20
signatures to h a v e their name
placed on the ballot. AJ1 petitions must be returned to the
business office by 4 p.m. on
Monday, May 17.
District voters will also vote
on school tax millage on the
same date. The Board has not
yet decided what millage will be
on the ballot. This decision will
be made at the regular meeting
of the Board on Wednesday, May
12.
The Board is faced with many
unanswered questions in trying to
decide the amount of millage.
First, it is not known what can
be expected from state aid. Another question unanswered now
Is how much money the County
Allocation. Board will award to
schools.
The d e a d l i n e for voter r e g istration is 5 p.m. on May 14.
People who live in the city should
r e g i s t e r with the city clerk.
Those outside the city should
register with t h e i r township
clerk.
Neither is it known at this
time what the salaries of teache r s and other school employees
will be for the next-school year.
Paced with these uncertainties,
the Board will recommend a
millage which they feel will be
honest and realistic, and which
it is hoped will not make it necessary to curtail the program
for children.
4-H celebrity:

ALL REGISTERED voters may
v o t e in the election. Property
ownership is not necessary. In
regard to 18 year olds voting,
if 38 states ratify the amendment
by election day on June 14, they
may vote if they a r e registered
by 5 p.m. on May 14.

AIR POLLUTION
Air i s what we need to breath.
However, it i s getting h a r d to
breath because of the smoke In
the air and It doesn't smell good
at all. Pollution is not nice to
see and it i s not healthy.
Sulfur dioxide identified as a
culprit in the increasing incl- 1
dence of lung diseases i s one
of the most noxious substances
in New York City's air. It i s believed that New York City has
more polluted air than Los
Angeles, They have shut down
some of the factories until they
do something about the smoke in
New York City. A day in New
York City or Los Angeles is polluted so thick that one's breath
comes short.
If a window has just been
painted it will be coated with
cinders in one day. Pollution
cracks the paint on houses, eats
away at stone, tarnishes copper,
and cracks rubber tires. Houses
and clothes mustbe cleaned more'
often.
Some things that cause pollution are burning trash, garbage,
and leaves. The factories and industrial chimneys cause pollution. Your home furnaces and
your automobiles also cause pollution. Cooking outside causes
pollution of the air. Do not burn
paper dishes, cups, and refuse in
charcoal burners.
WATER IS IMPORTANT to us
because we need it to drink,
but soon we'll have no water
because of all that junk they
pour into the water. Even the
fish are dying. Some people even

Just for kicks. All of that pollutes the water.
The Great Lakes a r e one example of a nationwide water pollution problem that i s affecting

Lake Erie i s dying already b e cause of the sewage that comes
from the towns and cities.
Industry pours its wastes, o r ganic ' and inorganic, irito the
water daily such as: oil, salts,
wood pulp, metal filings, coal

If someone doesn't do anything
about water pollution there won't
be any water left to drink or go
swimming in.

County 4-H Teen Leaders have
collected a total o'104,150 pounds
of glass containers. It has been
shipped to the Owens Illinois plant
at Charlotte for recycling into
new glass products Instead of
ending up in a landfill.
Little did the Teen Leaders
realize when they started this
project last October the total
amount of glass that would be
collected to date, how long the
project would last, the response
of the people in the county to
this project and the value to
the community in reducing the
amount of material taken to the
landfills.

really knows how many Injuries
and deaths each year are associated directly with flammablllty
of clothing and ofrier textile products and how many accidents
might have been prevented by
the use of firereslstanttextlles.
The cost of medical care for
hospitalized b u r n victims is
measurable, b u t no one can
measure the cost of pain and
suffering or the tragic loss of
life in dollars and cents.
THE DEPARTMENTS of Commerce and of Health Education
and Welfare are beginning to
collect some statistics on flammablllty accidents. In a one year
study, one report indicates a
total of 670 cases of Injuries
and deaths associated with the
flammablllty of clothing.
The accidents happened for a
variety of reasons but they could
be placed in nine categories of
which the first five were particularly important.
These categories are: 1) Flammable l i q u i d s in explosion including s t o v e s ; 2) H e a t e r s ,
stoves, furnaces and open fireplaces; 3) Burning trash and bonfires; 4) Matches and cigarette
lighters; 5) Cigarettes, smoking;
6) Fireworks; 7) unknown: 8)
Caught in burning building; 9)
Miscellaneous.
It's not a question of who gets
burned and how, but why they
were burned. If the records of
the 670 accidents indicate that
one percent were the result of
some deliberate act, and three
percent are unknown and.another
three percent related to those
caught in burning buildings and
involving clothing incidentally,
then the remaining 93 percent
Includes accidents which may
have been prevented if the people

took effect in 1970.
One of those changes requires

size of the truck.
Back on January 1, 1971,the
Department oi Transportation
announced that farm trucks wouid
virtually come under the regul a t i o n s of the Interstate Commerce Commission. I t would
have meant farm truck drivers
•would have to be at least twentyone years old, and pass physical
and written examinations and
road tests before they could
legally drive.
It doesn't take long to figure
out the kind of predicament this
would put farmers in, since most
farm trucks a r e operated by
the farmers* sons, or employees
who, in many cases, a r e not
twenty-one years, old.
Farm Bureau requested and
received a six-month delay on
the new regulations until testimony could be presented to show
why farm trucks should continue
to be exempt from the ICC rules.
WITH THE AID of Senator
Allen Ellender, it appears as
though an agricultural exempt i o n from the rules might be
possible. Farm Bureau's legislative directors in Washington
s a y t h a t the Department of
Transportation i s not ye,t convinced that there should be no
delivery restrictions to the first
point of sale. On the other point,
it was reported, the only argument against young drivers was
the contention that young automobile drivers have a poorer
safety record.
In comparison, data proves
the safety record of farm truck
drivers is dramatically better
than that of non-farm drivers.
Farmers a n d c o n c e r n e d
parties can help persuade the
Department of Transportation to
allow delivery to the first point
of sale, regardless of truck size,
by writing to the Secretary ,af
Transportation, John A. Volpe,

Under another tightened r e g ulation which came into force
last year, it is unlawful to d i s card any burning m a t e r i a l s lighted matches, c i g a r e t t e s ,
ashes, etc.,—-in f o r e s t and
grassland areas of the state. That
fire prevention rule covers motorists as well a s outdoor users
on foot.
It means that motorists traveling in rural parts of Michigan
must use ashtrays to dispose of
their " s m o k e s . " The measure
also requires foot-bound citizens
in these same a r e a s to make
sure that their cigarettes and
other burning m a t e r i a l s a r e

Theres still a lot of problems
In this old world of ours,
In spite of all the efforts
Of governments 'n powers;
'Mongst the folks that's rated equals
Wide discrepancies are found,
When we leave the family center
'N proceed to look around.
To each is given but one stomach
But the chances for re-fills.
Is for some a life-long struggle —
Others dine mostly on pills;
Stomach-stretching is a science
Practiced by the young of heart,
Later years invite more caution
When the dietiticians start.
One prime goal of every youngster
In the early pell-mell days
Has to do with tummy filling
By assorted means and ways;
Adult folk have other problems —
Their taboos we plainly see
As they seek out special diets
Hopeful that they will agree.
There is still poetic justice
In the sequence of the years,
Things that thrill in the beginning
Give way later to age and fears;

OPINION
It was John Steinbeck's opening and graphic description of
the great dust bowl in Texas
and Oklahoma that brought America's attention to the tragic pattern of desolation that periodically sweeps the Middle South
and Midwest.
In 20-year cycles, dust bowls
of varying magnitudes have ravaged the farming belts of the
Texas and OklahomaPanhandles.
This appears to be another period
in that 20-year cycle.
In many areas of those two
states, rain has not fallen for
almost a year and the strong
winds are starting to carry away
the precious little topsoil that
remains.
It could develop into another
30's-type tragedy, just what our
farm economy didn't need in this
year of financial misery.
Amidst the gala lights and
center-stage political promotlonalism, or for want of abetter
t e r m , propaganda, President
Nixon has tried to create the
aura of the Farmers' Champion
with a special salute to agriculture day at the White House
last week.
'
There were displays of modern
farm machinery spread across
the White House lawn for newsmen and various manufacturers—
a mini-trade show, in so many
words. There was a huge banquet featuring country-boy singing whiz Glenn Campbell, complete with downhome jokes and a
kiss for the First Lady,
But the poor dudes in Texas
and Oklahoma, fighting for simple
survival, couldn't expect to be too
enthusiastic about the whole
show. Watching their land blow
away, or waiting for It to happen
again, wouldn't make them too
responsive to glamorous speech
making.
In many areas, farmers are
selling their stock at buyers'
prices In the northern Midwest,
rather than watch the animals
die of starvation. Some still cling
to that land in hopes of rain,
taking the chance that by August
all could be lost.
It appears that with each succeeding administration, national
leaders tune out the domestic
cries for help. But it is much
worse this time. Not only are
the young crying out for reform, now they are joined by the
"Establishment* f a r m e r s and
blue collar workers across the
country. The Silent Majority, so
long endeared to the President,
could prove his undoing, if he
continues in this lack of domestic
economic response.
We hear reports coming from
Washington that l e a d e r s are i
smiling again because the unemployment rate has dropped by
one-tenth of a percent to afigure
of about 6,5 per cent. The only
trouble is the rate should be
below four per cent.
In Michigan, we have a rate
of more than eight per cent,
tolerable for a short time at
best. It is clear that the socalled "induced recession* is
getting out ofhand. With the dollar
being devalued abroad, inflation
rising , farmers, youth and
workers shouting for aid, we
could be approaching a point of
no return.
In time like these, with the
problems and anguish of millions
of citizens, it is not unreasonable to question the administration's sincerity, while parties and
gala banquets take precedence
over action. There is a growing
sentiment that this nation has
survived so long with all the problems and crises—not because of
its leaders, but in spite of them.

Suffering on the railroad
By JIM FITZGERALD
Goofy Americans, Middle-aged
and older, are currently suffering
terrible fits of choo-choo nostalgia.
They quit riding trains years
ago, because they liked cars and
planes better. But now the populace is upset because the railroads have despaired of rolling
empty seats across the countryside. Daily passenger service
is being eliminated or severely"
flashed all over the country.
And people who rode the train
laithfully once every 10 years
are wailing and moaning and
yearning for the good old days
when everyone went down to the
depot to meet the 5:10.
I remember trains, too. Like
a cinder in my eye . . .
S o m e t i m e s t in nightmarish
flashbacks, it seems like my
entire 3-year army career was
spent on trains. In 1944, a train
took me from home to Chicago,
where I was inducted.
T h o s e were the glory-days
when the high school band and
gobs of sobbing relatives showed
up at the depot to bid farewell
to the brave draftees.

Delayed tuition
By REP. DICK ALLEN
What's in a name?
A lot, I'll tell you. Two years
ago I introduced a bill in Michigan's Legislature that involved
a rather dramatic new concept
in the area of finance of our
colleges and universities.
I called it a "Delayed Tuition
Plan". However, Action Line in
the Detroit Free Press called
it a "Degree Tax." The rest
of the State's newspapers picked
it up and the term "Degree Tax"
stuck.
Degree Tax! Good GoshI We've
got a tax on everything from beer
to toothpaste. Now some dumb
freshman legislator wants to put
a tax on college degrees!
Within 10 days I received over
800 letters. Almost ten favored
the concept. The rest expressed
reactions from mild disagreement to in depth discussions
of my likely fitness for office.
The basic precepts behind my
plan were two-fold. First, that
the logical people to pay the
lion's share of the operational
costs of colleges and universities arethose that benefit most,
the students. Second, that the
best time for them to pay these
costs is when they are most
able, after graduation when they
have high incomes.
Now, two y e a r s after my
fiasco attempt, I find plans
similar to mine springing up
a r o u n d the c o u n t r y . The
Governor of Ohio has proposed

one; Yale University has one
already l.i effect.
My original plan was crude
in some ways and probably did
not deserve to pass. However,
the problems it was designed
to alleviate are, if anything,
growing worse.
A c o n s t a n t l y growing percentage of our high school students seek advanced educational
opportunity. Of those that go on,
an increasing number continue
past the bachelor's degree to
more expensive advanced study.
Our expenses, therefore, are
increasing and will continue to
increase if we are to meet the
e d u c a t i o n a l and vocational
training needs of our young in
an increasingly complex technological society.
It does not appear these dollars
can come from the normal State
tax sources. We are in the proce s s of t r y i n g to p r o v i d e
a dramatic Increase in the financial support of public grade and
high schools. The people want
and deserve property tax relief
as a first priority in the use
of increased State taxes.
Students are even less able
to pay increased costs than the
State, Good paying jobs are not
available. Young people should
not be dependent on their parents
for huge sums. Some cannot provide it. In cases where they can,
it creates the kind of dependency
antagonism that is the source
of much frustration on the part
of both young peopleandparents.
So you'll soon hear of another
Allen plan for college finance.
This time I think it will be called
a Delayed Tuition Plan rather

did understand how come I was
on that miserable train and they
stayed home. Come -to think,
maybe they weren'tholdinghands
with my girl. Maybe they were
holding hands with each other.
That window was really dirty...
IN FRANCE, I WAS transported
to the front lines in a 40 & 8
left over from. World War I,
That's a freight car, built in
1900, capable" of carrying 40
men and 8 horses.
The men must be midgets and
t h e horses must be rocking.
There is no better way to get
to know your fellow man intimately. I sat on the floor between two fat guys who didn't
know I was there for the first
two days, until I got sick and
learned another use for my steel
helmet.
It took that French train 3
days to go 200 miles. We kept
getting shunted off onto sidings
to let higher-priority trains go
through. They probably contained
generals and Red Cross girls on
their way home for more doughnuts.
'
One of the layovers was in
Paris, and I still brag to my kids
that I spent a night in GayParee,
Even though we weren't allowed
any farther from the train than
the nearest bush (nobody worried
about pollution in those days).
A year later, with the war over,
I was back in the U.S. where
my first assignment was riding
shotgun on a prisoner train. I
stood in the passageway between
cars, with a carbine strapped
over my shoulder, and prayed
to God that the incredible shaking
. and bumping didn't make the
stupid gun.go off. I wasn't afraid
of the noise or the bullet. I just
didn't want to have to clean the
gun because I still hadn'tlearned
how to take it apart.
Officers kept telling me my
gun was my best friend but then
they'd tell me to strip my weapon
and that seemed like a vulgar
way to treat a good friend. So
I never did.ANYWAY, SEATED Inside the
cars were German prisoners of
war on their way to catch a
boat home. My job was to make
sure none of them jumped off .
in Cincinnati and went on welfare.
Trouble came when I jumped
off myself to buy a beer in Philadelphia.
The train was supposed to layover for 5 minutes but a conductor blew a fuse and it pulled
out early. And there I was, with
my carbine, guarding the depot
bar overnight. That was my last
out-of-town assignment.
Soom I was sent home for
good, in a brilliantly decorated,
brand new uniform with which
to dazzle my family and 4-F
friends. Except the trip was made
in a sweaty, 80-year-old Pullman that sucked in soot like a
vacuum, cleaner.
When I arrived at the home
depot, my father said: "If your
side won the war, I'd hate to see
thB losers.*

Rep. U.S Garry Brown
3rd. Congressional Dist.
Following is a summary of
' major floor action in Congress
last week and scheduled action
this week.
Last Week in the House:
Railroad Retirement Annuities
The House approved a temporary
10 percent increase in Railroad
Retirement benefits to conform
to recent increases in Social
Security benefits, retroactive to
January 1, 1971.
The increase expires June 30,
1972 when the report of the commission studying t h e Railroad
Retirement F u n d will be completed. The bill now goes to the
Senate.
Increase Appropriations Authorization for Commission on
Marihuana and Drug Abuse: The
House approved increasing t h e
ceiling on expenditures of the
Commission for SI million to
$4 million. T h e Increase was
considered necessary because of
a broadening of the duties of
the Commission from a study of
marihuana to a study of drug
abuse.
The administration f a v o r e d
raising the ceiling but preferred
inserting a c l a u s e to provide
"such sums as may be necess a r y " rather than stating a specific amount. The bill now goes
to the_Senate.
im[ji
IIH s ,
Oleomargarine Amendment;
The House passed an amendment
to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic
Act modifying requirements concerning notice to patrons of public eating places that colored

ways: (1) notice displayed p r o minently and conspicuously in the
establishment; (2) notice on the
menu in type not smaller than
normally used; (3) label on each

oleomargarine. Senate action is
now needed for enactment.
Other Actions: A d d i t i o n a l

certain bills dealing with matters
pertaining to the government of
the District of Columbia.
LAST WEEK in the Senate:
Rural Telephone Bank: The
Senate agreed to the conference

for final congressional action by
the House.
Appalachian Regional Development Commission: The Senate
agreed to a conference requested by the House to iron out differences in Senate and House

"In action last y e a r / T r e zise noted, "the Legislature inadvertantly removed this exemption under a general revision
of the tax law. As a result,
organizations which now provide
a vital service to a large portion of our area on a volunteer
basis are required to pay a sales
tax on all their purchases of
vehicles and supplies."
"For example," he pointed
out, "one organization in our
area, the D.V.A, Ambulance at
Durand, had exemptions of over
$15,000 including the purchase
of a new vehicle. This means
that this group would have had
to pay over $600 on state sales
and use taxes."

Trezise in sponsoring this legislation areHouseMinorityLeader
Clifford Smart (R-Walled Lake)
and
Representative R a y m o n d

MILLAGE PROPOSAL
Philip III
By REV. HUGH B A N N I N G A
The third appearance of Philip
in John's gospel comes in the
middle of the 12th chapter. We
read:
"Among those who went up to
worship at the festival were
some Greeks, They came to Philip. . .and said to him, "Sir, we
should like to see J e s u s . " So
Philip went and told Andrew
and the two of them went to tell

and exacting endeavor which the
life of the Christian requires."

The answer Jesus gave to Philip was similar to the old guide's
answer to the young boy. The
longer a person travels' with
Jesus the Master, the more a
person studies the life of that
carpenter from Nazareth, the
more difficult it will be for that
person to see anything but the
Almigtty and the all-loving God
Himself.
Are you like Philip? Do you
have a questioning mind? Do you
continually search for God in
your life? Then look to Jesus,
The late Archbishop of Canterbury, William Temple, once said,
"The central fundamental affirmation of the Christian r e ligion is that Jesus of Nazareth
i s the unique, finai manifestation
of God," That is what Philip d i s covered, because he was not
ashamed to put his question to
Jesus,
Philip the disciple—a man with
a missionary instinct, a man with
a warn heart, but a pessimistic
head, a man who disliked r e sponsibility, and a man with a
questioning mind. A man like us
in many respects?
