strikes me as unsound, but we will ,

The controversy ·goes back to·
1969, when 56,400 highway del!thS
aroused such an outcry that the
Nixon administration ordered tbe
Transportation Department to find

answers. This led In 1972 to the first
air bag proposal. An ' air bag
rwlation stlll Is tied up in the
courts today.
For those who may have come In
late: Air air bag Is a pUlowlike
container that ordinarily Is tightly
folded and tucked out of sight under
the steering wheel on the drtver's
side and under the glove compartment on the passenger's side. When
a car collides with a solid barrier,at
12 miles per hour, or with another
vehicle at 25 miles per hour,
activate a small container of
sodi um azide. This generates nitrogen gas, which Inflates the bags .

refugees through terror and intimi·

have been confined mainly to the
refugee communities in urban
areas, according to pollee reports.
But authortties told my associates Donald Goldberg and Corky
Johnson that the armed gangs are
growing more brazen. Many of the
U.S.·tralned enforcers are experts
in military weaponry; the Frogmen, for example, are former
South VIetnamese marines and
underwater demolition specialists.

The Association willingly in the
belief that it Is planning an eventual
mtlitary liberation of their homeland from the communists. But
those who aren't anxious to contrllr
ute their hard-earned money soon
get the message.
"These funds are collected
through intimidation by appealing ·
to the refugees that If they don't
give money to this group which Is ·
trying to free the country, then
these people must themselves be
communists and will be dealt with

accordingly," one internal police
report compiled this past summer
explains, adding: "Allegedly, this
has been a very successful method
of raising money."
Occasionally, an object lesson is
needed. A Vietnamese communist
sympathizer was assassinated two
years ago In San Francisco, and
pollee are convinced It was The
ASsociation's work .
Several sources said they have
been told of small armies of
VIetnamese being trained in this
country and In the Philippines,
presumably waiting to be unleashed against the coinmul\lsts.
But officials suspect these rumors
are fantasies spread bY The

GeneraJ Manager

P.resident ReagaJ) puts peace at the top of his Christmas list, but not at
the: prtce of a U.S. withdrawal from Lebanon short of a mission
accomplished.
So Reagan has renounced his own suggestion that there might be an
early way out of Lebanon for the 1,800 Marines he sent there as part of a
multinational effort to bring order to the current arena of -Middle East
conflict.
In doing so, he rejected the unsolicited advice of some conservative
allies, among them Sen. Barry Goldwater of Ar(zona, who have advocated
an Amertcan withdrawal from the strtle amongLebanese factions, Syrta,
Israel and the Palestinians.
That could prove to be a political problem in the presidential election
year just ahead, but Reagan said it makes no difference.
'
His 1\tesday night news conference was ending with holiday banter
when a reporter called out the question that led Reagan back to the
microphone.
"When will tbe Marines come home?''
"The Marines will come home as quickly as It Is possible to bring tbem
home in accomplishing our mission," Reagan replied.
'"There have been same suggestions made with regard to bringing them
home that some of m y considerations might be based on the fact that this is
,an election year and -politics are coming up," he said. "I will tell you this:
No decision regarding the lives and the safety of our ser;icemen will ever
be made by me for a political reason."
Reagan bas said it will be possible to withdraw the Marines during the
1984 election year, IJecause their work will be done. But he took pains to
dispel any impression that he might be looking for an earlier way out.
At a brief news conference last Thursday, he had said that "if there was a
complete collapse and there was no posslbillty of restoring order there
would be no purpose in the multinational force."
He said 1\tesday night that was a hypoI helical answer to a hypothetical
question "and maybe a bad choice of words."
The president said he had intended no message, no hint of withdrawal.
Reagan said that short of achieving the American peacekeeping goal in
Lebanon, the only withdrawal contingency he could think of would come
'Should there be a complete change in the Lebanese government course "to
the point that we were no longer asked to be tbere." He said he doesn't
foresee that happening.
So Reagan will enter the campaign year with a renewed commitment to
the American presence in Lebanon. acknowledging that public opinion
polls show the miSsion to be an unpopular one.

.
country Gemayel governs has now
diminished to about the size or' a
Texas county with two cities, Beirut
and Tripoli. Beirut has been almost
destroyed bY the incessant factional
wars and Tripoli Is not inuch better
off after, being used as a shield by
Yassir Arafat's PLOs during their
Civil War with other PLO factions.
There must be some deep psycho·
logical reasons why the administra·
tlon wants to prop up teetering
countries like Lebanon and El
Salvador but for the moment it
escapes me. If I find out, I'll let you
know!

Last week President Reagan said
American troops could be with·
drawn If the U.S. objectives
{whatever they are) areattainedor
the situation deteriorates until
there is no hope of any solution. If
our objective Is to make a secure
position for Gemayel, it will never
happen. Factional rtvairles are too
strong and have been for sevenil
years. The second condition has
been met years ago. The troops
should never have been sent Into
such a crazy hornet's nest In the
first place.

Even such prominent Republicans as Senators Barry Goldwater
and Howard Baker a~t&gt; saying the
&lt;;arne thing, echoed by Representa·
live Henry Hyde and other republl·
cans In the House. The president's
arbitrary position is not only losing
hlm the support of the public but
also of prominent members of his
own party.
The lall\e ·excuse heard most
often against troop withdrawal is
that it would be a sign oll!leakness.
Bushwah! The Soviets and other
Communist countries know damn
well we are not weak and never
were. Even before Reagan began
the expensive and well publicized
defense build-up, we were not
weak. I Imaging tbe Soviets know
more about our strength 'a M
weaknesses than eltber Secretary
of Defense Caspar Weinberger or
President Reagan. In this elec·
Ironic world, there are f€111 secrets
and If the administration wants to
impress its macho Image on tbe
Soviets and the Middle East, it will
take many more troops and many
more battleships before It is over.
Why not wtite him today and tell
him so?

Dailey's Country Restaurant

One man can't build a football stadium. .
But one man can supply the energy and the
drive-and inspire the teamwork-to make it happen.
That's why in just a few short years, West
Virginia watched as Mountaineer Field went from a
questionable dream to a 50,000. seat reality.
As people who helped Mountaineer Field
take shape, we know just how much Jay Rockefeller
contributed-as Governor, as a West Virginian, as a
·
sports fan.
Through his office, Jay coordinated an effort
· ·
that cut through construction bottlenecks and worked
with local authorities to speed the stadium's progress.
,..JII At the same time, he personally committed himself to
raising much of the necessary funds privately-Jay's dinner raised more than one million dollars which helped
"
build a first class Facilities Building.
Now that our modern 50,000 seat stadium is a reality, we want the people of West Virginia to recognize
how invaluable Jay was in the whole process.
·
·
..
We were there. We saw it. And we know how his commitment continues-including his successful effort
to raise more than $600,000 for a special endowment fund for football and basketball coaches at WVU.
That's why so many people who are grateful for Mountaineer Stadium are grateful to Jay Rockefeller.

"OFTEN IMITATED- NEVER DUPLICATED"

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -State
fire officials arewarntngOhloansto
exercise caution this holiday season,
noting that Improper use of Christ·
mas decorations or space heaters
can lead to tragedy.
· Christmas tnees sbould never be
. placed near a fireplace, can~ or
other sources of Ilea t, said Harry
Lyons, public infonnatlonofflcerfor
the state fire marshal.
ThecombinatlonoftheChrlstmas
season and the cold weather make
the next few weeks particularly
hazardous for fires, Lyons said. "We
· · are seeing a lot of chimney and
woodstove fires," he said.
There were 10 Christmas tree
fires in Ohio last year. Such fires
"make spectacular blazes," especially lf the tree's needles have
dried, Lyons said.
Tips for a safe season also
Include:
-Check wiring of Christmas tree
Ughts for worn or cracked
Insulation.
-Use extension cords only when
necessary, and try to limit use toone
cord. Check extension cord
Insulation.
-Do not' run extension cords
undercarpetsorallow!hemtowrap
around the legs of furniture.

Yl
lj!

u.

Insulation can be worn away by
being walked on or stretched.
-Buy Christmas lights and
exienslon cords which have been
"UL Tested." This means they have
been Inspected by Underwriters
Labs In Chicago and meet safety
standards.
-Do not drive nails near cords to
outdoor Christmas lights. Use only
lights specifically designed for
outdoor use.
-After purchasing a live, cut
tree, chop off an addltlonallnchorso
and place It in water so the branches
will remain niolst longer.
Leave the tree outrlooi's, where

"One time I went Into an antique '

doll, It pleased me to see it there."
The only part or the doll that Mrs:
Moore doesn't make herself are the
eyes. The eyes are hand blown in
Germany and ordered from a New

In another room , shelves are

HO, ho, ho, your 1040 will be mailed ~ext week
WASHINGTON (AP) - I f Santa's on tt1s way, can your Income tax .
forms be far behind• Ho, 'ho, ho they'll be In the mall next week.
In its traditional year-end postal
blizzard, tbe Internal Revenue
Service is sending out dose to 92
milllon tax-form packages begin·
nlng next 1\tesday, an IRS spokes·
man said Wednesday. The forms
normally go out the day after
Christmas, but Monday is a federal ·
holiday.
Eventually, more than 96 million
· individuals and families will file
returns covering their wages and
other Income for 19&amp;1, said spokesman WUson Fadely. The estimate is
up from about 95 rn!Uion filed for
1982.
Sending millions of forms out in
the week between Christmas and
New Year's - a week when most
families' thoughts are on lighter
matters- might seem a bad public
relations move. But officials say it's
the obvious time.
Mailing the forms later would
hold up taxpayers who want to file
their returns early in hopes of
receiving a quick refund. Sending
mUllons of forms earlier In December would put · them on a
collision course with the Postal
Service's crush of Christmas cards
and packages.
Bundles of the forms are already
at postal distribution points, "but we
instruct the post offices not1o begin
actual delivery until after Christmas," Fadely said. He said most
people should have their forms by
mid-January at the latest.
The IRS will be sending out about

52.2 million ''long-form" 1040 tax
packages and about 39.6 million
packages that Include both the 1040A
"short form" and the shortest-form
1040EZ.
Here's a breakdown:
-The blue form 1040 'will look
about thesameasusuaiandbeused
by mostly thesamepeopieas usual:
those who make $50,000 or more or
who itemize deductions. The accompanying "Schedule A" has been
changed slightly to reflect less·
liberal medical deductions voted by
Congress.
-The pink form 1040A is still
basically for taxpayers who don't
want to claima lotofdeductions.Bur
it has been expanded with a
"Schedule 1" on which pedple can
report interest or dividends of more
than $400 or can claim special

deductions for wor}\ing couples or
cr\'(llts for child-care expenses.
-The mint-green. 11-iine form
1040EZ. which was new last year,
has bl&gt;en modified in an effort to
allow the IRS to check those returns
"ith computers rather than by
people. This form. the simplest for
reporting income. is available to
single people with total income

present," Cuenin said, adding that
he did the same thing last year. He
said he plans to continue the practice
for future Christmases.
"There are so many ,peOple who
are laid off. I figure that at
Christmas, this might make it
easier for them to get around."
The price was reduced at 6 a.m.
1\tesday, and business had picked
up within hours, he said. Cuenin said
he hopes the customers for the
discount gas would remember him
after Christmas. •

Gas station owner cuts prices
AMHERST. Ohio (AP) - Gas
station owner Robert Cuenln figures
he can do his part to make
Christmas happier in Lorain
County, where more than one In 10
wo1·kers are unemployed.
Cuenin, the owner of Cuenin' s
Marathon station, 1\tesday slashed
his price for a gallon of regular gas to
99cents, from$1.07. Healsoreduced
the price on other grades of gasoline
by about 8 cents per gallon.
He said he hoped hecouidkeepthe
price at the low level through the
weekend, but promised only that the
price would stay "as long as 1 can
. hold out."
"It's more or le.ss a Christmas

more than $400 and no dependents.
Fadely said the l!MOEZ was used
by about 15 mllllon taxpayers for
1982 and could beused by as many as
20 million "as people get used to lt."
The main change to help compu·
ters "read" it involves asking
taxpayers to write figures In printed

Sermonette
Who Me? You Want Me To Be Involved?
We began to reminisce ·about Christmases past and the ones
we enjoyed the most. I remembered the year we did a live
nativity scene at the chureh. It was bitterly cold and the hot
chocolate lasted wonderful as we laughed and thawed out. I
remembered when I was five years old and in the church
Christmas pageant. I was gathered at my grandparents' house
when fifteen cousins and I went carollng and delivering goodies
to neighbors and friends. It Is one thing to see a Christmas
pageant, or drive by a Uve nativity scene, or listen to groups
carollng and it is quite another to be involved in the doing of
them.
"For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son Is given." It is one
thing to say it, and quite another to be Involved.
What does the birth of the Messiah really mean in our lives. In
the llvlng out of our Uves?
A department store advertised that customers could browse
through their pre-Christmas catalogue, phone in their order and the
clerk would wrap the gift and send it wherever and to whomever they
wished. That would make our shopping a lot easier but we would
have very little involvement. The ad went oh even further and said,
"Just describe your relationship to the person and the clerk will do all
the rest." In other words, what It all bolls down lo. Is we wouldn't
have to be involved at all.
We mention a name, we point a finger, or we point a missli and
that's 1!. It Is just possible th;lt one of the biggest problems in our
world today ts that we feel very insecure because we are not involved
in a helpful, loving and constructive way with each other.
In other words,- "For unto us a Chlld is born," but so what!
Submitted by The Rev. Wanda G. Johnson, pastor of the three
Presbyterian churches in Meigs County.
