Would Lose
The Appalachia Regional Commission (ARC) program expires this year along with numerus other economic deve1opment
programs, whether or not revenue sharing is adopted, he said.
Gilligan urged the $11 billion Nixon has proposed be tai{en out
of the programs and put into revenue sharing instead be "taken
off the gaming table."
"In short, Congress should extend the program presently
operating, at least until some definite program of revenuesharing is enacted," he said.
"If, as may well be the case, the Appalachia and other programs are held as ransom for revenue-sharing, then we will be
in serious trouble," he warned. "We can't afford to gamble with
the lives of the people of Ohio and other states who depend on
these dollars."
Gilligan encouraged public officials, educators and citizens
here today to voice their opinions on the proposals, so that he
could carry them to the meeting in White Sulphur Springs,
W.Va.
Know The Needs
"Most of you here have been closely involved in the development and implementation ofthis program," he said. "You know
the needs that prompted its enactment. I myself voted for the
program when I served in Congress because I saw those needs
and knew they had to be met."
The governor said some $100 million has been given to Ohio's
28 counties in the program over the last six years.
"In his executive budget message, President Nixon gave as

ATHENS Ohio (UPI) - Governor John J. Gilligan said
today Presid~nt Nixon's proposal that the Appalachian ~egional
Commission be replaced with a form of revenue sharmg asks
Appalachia to "give up a known quantity for a question mark."
"The President's revenue sharing program is not nearly so
big as it looks," Gilligan said in an address here. "Secondly,
Ohio would get less federal money than it gets now and third, the
revenue sharing program may very well not be enacted at all in
which case Ohio would get nothing." Gilligan proposed the
commission be kept until some definite form of revenue sharing
is actually enacted by Congress.
He appeared with David C. Sweet, state Development
Director and Ohio University President Claude Sowle. Gilligan
said the program and other economic plans which have funneled
money into Ohio's poverty pockets over the last six years may
be "held as ransom" for the revenue-sharing proposal.
Gilligan, in remarks prepared for delivery at Ohio University
here enroute to a meeting in West Virginia with governors of
other Appalachia states, said Ohio stands to Jose most of the
funds it has received under existing programs.
He said Nixon's proposal would take the money now appropriated for the Appalachia program, expected to rise to $290
million for fiscal 1972, and make it available to all 50 states,
rather than the 13 it now serves.
"Furthermore, what money does get to Ohio will not be
earmarked for Appalachia -so that you will have to compete
with every community and every activity in the state for your
share of the funds," he said.

Saline Water may Prove Boon
COLUMBUS - A GEOWGICAL SURVEY of groundwater
resources of Ohio shows water too salty to drink can be found at
depths of less than 500 feet, but the. report issued today said the
one-time nuisance may turn into a valuable resource.
"Advances in desalting techniques have enhanced the
potential of saline aquifers -sub-surface, water-bearing rocks to serve as sources of water, especially in areas where available
supplies of fresh water are inadequate to meet water needs," said
Alan C. Sedam, a hydrologist in the U. S. Geological Survey's
Columbus office. •

Maloney testified Thursday before a legislative committee
which made several stops in southwestern Ohio to gather data and
public opinion on lowering the voting age. Andrew W. Hitz,
director of the Hamilton County Board of Elections, said about
40,000 new voters would be added there if the voting age were

Strike Threat Undiminished
WASHINGTON- THE THREAT OF STRIKES by three rail

reaching of a tentative contract agreement between the nation's
railroads and two other unions. The tentative agreement on a 42month contract was reached Thursday with the Brotherhood of
Maintenance of Way (MOW), representing about 100,000 track
workers, and the Hotel and Restaurant Employes Union, which
represents about 3,000 dining car workers.
Chief railroad negotiator John P. Hiltz Jr. said negotiations
were continuing with the United Transportation Union (UTU) and
the Brotherhood of Railway and Airline Clerks (BRAC). Together
they represent about 300,000 workers.

next September a child must be five on or before
September 30. To enter grade one a child must be six on
or before September 30. We will need legal proof of this
birth date.
Testing is done late in the summer for students
whose birthday falls between September 30 and
January 1. A successful score on this test will enable
the student to enter kindergarten, or grade one, as the
case may be. This test is administered by the supervisors from the county office.
It is not too early to be thinking ahead now to those
items that I have mentioned above.
AND SNOW CAME!
Last Friday, just a week ago today, we were hit by
snow during the school day. When a situation such as
this arises, the question is whether to dismiss school
early and get the students home as quickly as possible
or to keep them in school until road crews have had the
opportunity to work on the roads. Our biggest problem
is getting 27 buses to report on short notice.
As the snow fell last Friday, I was in contact with
state, county and village officials who are responsible
for road care. I was also in contact with the State Highway Patrol to obtain information on the weather and
existing road conditions.
When all this information from many sources was
compiled, I concluded that most roads in our district
would be in better condition at the time of regular
dismissal than at a time earlier in the school day.
Special arrangements were made with a number of
these agencies to cinder, scrape or salt certain key
locations just prior to the time that our buses would be
using them.
With the cooperation of those mentioned above, we
were able to complete the school day and transpnrt our
students more safely at the regular dismissal hour
than we would have been able to do earlier in the school
day.

On Wednesday of this week the snow started just
about an hour prior to our regular dismissal time. This
was too late to consider an early dismissal so we went
on to the regular dismissal time.
Yesterday? The best information that I had by 6:30
a.m . from the state highway garage, the county highway garage, the Highway Patrol, the sheriff's office,
WMPO, and WATH convinced me that the roads were
too icy for school buses. Consequently, school was
cancelled.
I want you to know the background on these
situations so you will better understand why certain
decisions were made. The decisions that were made
were based on all the information that could be
collected. They were based on what I thought would be
the safest procedure for the 3,000 boys and girls in our
school.
I emphasized this particular point because the
paramount factor in a decision of this type is the safety
of the children involved. This safety factor will be the
key whenever we must make a decision either not to
open schools in the morning or to close them early on
any school day.
NEWS AND NOTES- We will begin registering
high school students for next year's classes very soon
now - Mrs. Lewis' high school art classes are
producing some interesting work- We look forward to
an exhibit sometime prior to the close of this school
year - If you have need for a part-time employee,
contact Mr. Kelly. I am certain that he has an OWE
student eager to help out- In a speech at the national
principals convention Sidney Marland, the new U. S.
Commissioner of Education, seemed to favor comprehensive high school in which vocational programs
are offered at the same site as are college preparatory
courses- We are glad that Meigs High School fits this
pattern.

specialists), but it serves to illustrate why so many members of Congress are wary of tJ.e idea of revenue sh~r~ng
--especially the administration's proposal that $5 b1lhon
in no-strings-attached funds be granted to state and local
governments to do with as they see fit.
There is, to put it mildly, a certain widespread doubt
about the level of competence of local government, not
only on Capitol Hill but among the subJects of those
governments as well.

Newark, or any other city for th!'lt matter, has a perf~ct

That being so, is it not the proper function-nay, the
duty-of a federal government to see that_ those d~?llars

good?
.
Granted that the federal government Is no pa1:agon of
efficiency, and granted that local government 1s haFdpressed. But if Washington does not oversee the spendmg

A lot of congressmen will want hard and fast answers to

their control over the national purse strmgs, even a little.

ANOTHER LOOK AT
POLLUTION PROBLEMS
Dear Readers:
I seldom give one letter the
whole column, but this one is too
good to cut. Don't you agree?
Dear Helen:
I'm getting a little weary
hearing all these instructions
-about what the common man
and uncommon housewife
should do to fight pollution. Why
must the burden be all on US?
For example, a recent article
tells individuals how to deal
with ecology problems. Let's
break it down and fight back:
1. Avoid water softeners as
well as enzymes and purchase
only low phosphate detergents.
Why doesn't government tell
manufacturers: Stop producing
pollution causers? Why must we
try to decipher the fine print to
see which detergent is most
enzyme and phosphate-free?
We probably couldn't understand it anyway.
At least, why doesn't
government publish a public list
of high and low pollutants. Is it
afraid of industry? I know such
lists are made- but they're not
easily available.
2. Buy products that are
packaged with as little material
as necessary.
Now tell me, if a woman's
family doesn't like oatmeal,
which comes in a single
pasteboard container, but likes
some other well-wrapped and
wax papered cereal, would she
switch to oatmeal just because
it had less wrapping?
And if oatmeal can get by
with simple cardboard, why not
the others?
3. Use plastic ice cream
containers for storage of
perishable goods.
After discarding all the
paper, foil and plastic the goods
are wrapped in when they come
from the store, I presume.
4. Return egg cartons to the
grocery store.
A good idea, but does the
grocer want them? Doubtless
some lobby representing the
egg carton industry would
object.
5. Bundle newspapers,
·
separate and flatten alummum
cans, separate and break
useless glass containers, and
take this material to salvage

"I

No, It's Not Good by,
To Secular City
By DAVID POLING
Five years ago Harvey Cox, professor, philosopher and
theologian, wrote a lit~le pap~rback called "T~e Secular
City.'' In about 10 mmutes 1t became a natiOnal bestseller. With humor, insight and nerve, Cox caught the
mood of the Christian community as it looked for new
ministry within urban Americ?. The book was se_nsat~on­
ally received on campus. It htt the general readmg lists
of almost every denomination. It has been translated into
a dozen languages and triggered endless discussions and
debates.
Cox's theme was direct and simple: We are witnessin~
the rise of urban society and the decline of traditional
religion. No more will the futur.e be governed by the
Gothic past. Theologv, church policy, personal belief-all
is in rapid change and constant flux. This is the impact
of the secular society and the book has been read by
hundreds of thousands.
Harvey and Nancy Cox and their two youngsters lived
in the secular city of Boston, or rather its ghetto, Roxbury. Here they hoped to share in the ache and hopes of
the poor, the black and the aged. With artistic talent,
natural leadership and boundless good will they lunge&lt;L
into the affairs, confusion, politics and classrooms of thi~
urban slum. Community action groups, PTA, voter registration, better housing-all these, besides the Christmas
pageant, were the regular round of this involved family
who greeted even the worst part of the city with joy. It
lasted for seven years.
When interviewed by Charles Fager in Christian Century (Jan. 6, 1971) Cox revealed that he had moved out
of Roxbury, away from the slum, into the more stable
community of Cambridge. (I realize that some Boston
citizens might challenge that observation.) He gave many
reasons for the change, as well as some new developments
in his family life style for the '70s:
• His home in Roxbury bad been bit by seven burglaries ... ''Once we were completely cleaned out of all
high-fidelity equipment, all musical instruments, all cameras, projectors."
• The increasing difficulty of "relating" to the cum·
munity ... "there was always a problem in figurin~ out
at what point we were exerci~ing too much leadership or
too little."
• "I believe to some extent in the notion so widely circulated just now that the best place for white people ·i.o
be working is in white communities."
In his new community, Cox has fulfilled one of his great...
ambitions-to yank the telephone off the wall! For years
he tried to avoid the inquiring reporter, the anxious student, the racing radical and theological panhandlers.
"Well," he told Fager, "we've been living since June
without a telephone, and I want to tell you that it is fantastic." (In emergency, call him at J:)is office at Harvard
Divinity School. Personally, ~ uses the pay phone down
the street.)
Other changes in family living-living with another family! Dr. Cox argues for Christian commune living of a
sort. Every couple has its own bedroom and bank book.
But the cookin~ and baby sitting is shared, as is the wineA
cellar and hi-f1. More changes include no television. No
automobile but lots of bikes. And still plenty of excitement about the future of the Jesus people. Goodby to the
Secular City? No, Harvey has just moved to another part
of town.

Antiwar Drive
Crosses the
Generation ·G ap
By RALPH NOVAK
NEW YORK-tNEAl-The
man who led the antiwar
movement across the generation gap in Massachusetts
is off on a nationwide crusade to muster support for
an attack on the constitutionality of all undeclared
wars, Vietnam included.
John M. Wells , a 42-yearold former Air Force major
and now a Unitarian minister, fostered the campaign
that led to passage last
spring of the Massachusetts
law that says the state's cltizens are not r e q u i red to
serve in wars not officially
declared by Congress.
"Our youth has become
e:ynical about the processes
of government in this country," Wells says, ··and this
movement is an attempt to
work within the system to
gain change."
Wells had been brooding
about the war since 1966.
when he became " totally convinced that the United States
was wrong in its action in
Vietnam" and "the United
States was trying to apply
Fax Americana throughout
the world with the use of our
armed forces ...
But it wasn't until late 1969
that he gave up hope that the

government would solve the
problem itself and submitted
his bill to Massachusetts'
legislature under initiative
provisions of the state constitution.
Wells be,gan with a core of
young antiwar workers still
looking for somewhere to
spend the zeal left over from
the frustrating M c C art h y
campaign of 1968. Wells,
Massachusetts Rep. Jim
Shea and Prof. Steve Worth
of Northeastern University
forged what began as a curious coalition into a wellorganized, politically savvy.
"consensus" organization.
Emphasizing similarities,
they j o in e d young people
with old: those who liked the
bill because it opposed the
Vietnam war with those who
liked it because it was a lawand-order interpertation of
the Constitution: students.
lawyers, writers and professors with housewives,
legislators, ministers and
wounded Vietnam veterans.
The bill passed its crucial
vote in the state house by a
136-89 vote March 16, after
a flurry of pressuring phone
calls by Wells ' group had
made certain the tide stayed
turned in the bill's favor.
Wells, as he had all along,
insisted the importance of

NEW YORK-(NEA)_:The debate over the extent
to which the President is constitutionallv free to
commit American armed forces without· Congressional approval centers around two sections of the
Constitution: Article l, Sec:tion 8, which defines
Congress' powers, and Article II, Section 2, which
defines the President's powers.
Article· I, Section 8 says Congress shall have the
power "to declare war" and "to raise and support
armies."
Article II, Section 2 savs, "The President shall
be commander-in-chief o( the Armv and Navv of
the Lnited States" and "shall have· power. by· and
with the advice and consent of the Senate, to makt&gt;
treaties, provided two-thirds of the Senators present
concur."
(Newspaper Enterprise Assn.!

the bill transcended Vietnam
and reached the basic constitutional issues.
(Not everyone saw the passage of the bill as a pure
case of making America safe
for democracy. One. of the
bill's opponents, state Rep.
Ralph Sirianni of Winthrop,
describes the Wells-SheaWorth campaign this way:
·~I think the people of Massachusetts were victims of a
fraud . There were a lot of
telephone calls to legislators,
mostly from women who had
been led to b e I i e v e that
m a y be some youngsters'
lives could be saved. I felt
then and feel now that the
bill isn't worth the paper it's
written on. Wells may be sincere, but I'm not sure that
some of the people associated with him in this thing
weren't just interested in
building themselves up to
run for office.")
"This is far bigger than
just the war in Vietnam,''
Wells says. ·'These are lives
we're talking about, and if
we're not careful we'll soon
be fighting in Cambodia.
Laos and Bolivia the way we
are in Vietnam."
But w h i I e W ell s was
worrying about people interpreting the legislation narrowly and calling it " the
anti-Vietnam bill," the U.S.
Supreme Court was calling it
something else: irrelevant.
The bill required state Attorney General Robert H.
Quinn to bring action in the
U.S. Supreme Court to exempt Massachusetts citizens
from serving in Vietnam.
When he tried it. the Court,
in a 6-3 decision handed
down Nov. 9, re fused to even
consider the case. saying
that the state could not sue
on behalf of its citizens and
that in any event the question could not be decided in
the courts because of its
compll'xJty and the difficult~·
of en forcing any decision.

John M. Wells
Quinn has since refiled the
suit in federal district court
in Boston, while Wells is off
publicizing his c a u s e and
"The People vs. Presidential
War," the book he edited
about the pas s a g e of the
Massachusetts law.
Wells insists the crusade is
not anti-Nixon. He blames
President Johnson as much
-or more. and he contends
that presidents have been
abusing their war powers
ever since John Adams ordered the Army on forays
against the Indians without
Congressional authorization
just before 1800. '
Having started his camP a i g n down the tortuous,
misty path of constitutional
law-where even politicians,
let alone angels, fear to tread
-Wells says C o n g r e s s is
showing signs of wanting to
flex its muscles. (He cites
limitations on the President's
freedom to act in Cambodia
that were part of the recently passed defense appropriations bill as an example of
Congressional unrest. ) And
with bills similar to Massachusetts' pending in New
York. California, Illinois and
New Jersey. plus 13 other
states. he says the time is
ripe for redressing the sys- •
tern of checks and balances.
"We are citizens and not
subjects," Wells says, ''and
we cannot just allow the
president to accumulate
more ancl morP power until
he '

Huff Still Wants
Marshall Position
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (UPI)
-The Marshall University head
football coaching job still highly
interests Sam Huff, despite the
fact he has heard little official
word about his chances of being
selected.
Huff, in an interview with The
Charleston
Daily
Mail
Thursday, said he had
even told Marshall officials
he had changed his offer that he
be hired as both coach and athletic director.
''I had expressed a desire for
the dual position of athletic
director and head coach," he
said, "But then I learned the
athletic council recommended
that the jobs go to two men."

Team Formed At Rio
At colleges and universities
across the country there is a
new athletic program being
developed women's intercollegiate athletics. And, at
Rio Grande College, the
development of women's intercollegiate athletics has taken
the form of the college's first
women's · intercollegiate
basketball team.
The growth of intercollegiate
women's athletics, according to
Miss Janine Cox, instructor of
health and physical education,
and the team's coach, "stems
from having highly-skilled girls
who need to express their talent
through athletics. A girl who is
athletically talented is not
challenged .in a girl's intramural program."
Miss Cox pointed out that
most schools in Ohio, as well as
in the Western states, have an
intercollegiate program for
women, and that the average
number of sports offered is five.
She added that current plans
call for the addition of softball
and tennis to the women's intercollegiate program in the
spring, with swimming planned
for next fall.
The women's team, which
plays by the five-member rules
rather than the traditional sixmember women's rules, opened
their season last Saturday with
a 39-26 loss to :t Morris Harvey
team. The women play their
first home game this Saturday,
hosting Otterbein College at 10
a.m. in Lyne Center.
The season's schedule includes: Feb. 6, Otterbein; Feb.
13, at Wilmington; Feb. 16, Ohio

Huff will be without a job effective March 1 when he leaves
the Washington Redskins
coaching staff. He was not
rehired by new Coach George
Allen.
Huff has been interviewed
along with others for the Marshall ' post, but officials have
offered no word on who will
replace Rick Tolley, the
school's coach who was one of 75
victims of the Nov. 14 football
team plane crash.
"I feel Marshall has got a
certain appeal and a lot of
people want to help it rebuild its
program," Huff said. "I feel I
could get the entire state behind

Commissioners Deny Misuse of Funds
CINCINNATI (UPI) - Hamilton County Commissioner Robert Wood says the transfer of
funds from Drake Hospital to
the county welfare department
was like taking money from one
pocket and putting it in another,
resulting "in the savings to taxpayers of millions of dollars.'!
Wood's statement came in
Thursday answer to charges by
state Auditor Joseph T. Ferguson who contends the county
commissioners illegally transferred tax funds to gain $13
million more than they should
have gotten from the state.
The commissioners said there
was nothing illegal, secret or
political about the transfer.
Wood said the transfer of
funds resulted when Drake
Hospital changed from a county
home to a hospital in 1962.
"The only way that local
funds were available to match
state and federal monies was to
route the Drake tax levy money

through our welfare department," he said.
Wood said the hospital received all the tax levy money
as well as additional state and
federal funds as a result.
"This resulted in the savings
to taxpayers of millions of dollars," he said.
Ferguson had said Wednesday
the transfer of some $3.5 million in tax revenues to the county
weHaredepartmentproducedan
ertra $13 million in matching
state funds.
"They'll have to pay it all
back," Ferguson said.
The auditor contended the
commissioners had been warned in 1968 and in 1969 by then
state Auditor Roger Cloud to
stop the practice, but "on both
occasions the officials indicated
they did not intend to restore
these funds ."
Ferguson also charged the
shift had been noted in 1963 but
was covered up for political rea-

sons. He said Cloud was convinced to ignore the situation by
state Sen. Michael Maloney, RCincinna ti.
Wood, however, denied any
political overtones were involved.
County Administrator R. A.
Anderegg said the state WeHare
Department was aware of the

transfer of funds and legal
counsel had advised that the
transfer was illegal only if the
money didn't get to the hospital.
Ferguson threatened to take
the case to state Attorney General William J. Brown if Hamilton County Prosecutor Simon
Leis Jr. failed to a ct within 90
days. He said he sent a copy

of the allegations to Leis.
Commissioner John Held returned the verbal fire against
Ferguson, charging that he
would have been aware of the
practice "if he hadn't been
asleep for the past 10 years."
"Mr. Ferguson will have no
success in attempting to secure
$13 million from Hamilton
County," he said.

Entphasis in Ohio Highway
Planning Going Statewide
CLEVELAND (UPI)- A new
office to coordinate highway
and total transportation planning for Ohio will be established in the Ohio Department of
Highways, Gov. John J. Gilligan announced.
Gilligan made the statement
during a speech to the Cleveland
Traffic Club here Thursday in
which he indicated funds for
such an office could be made
available from the U. S. Department of Transpor~tion .
The governor said he received
a letter from the Transportation
Department asking Ohio to submit detailed long - range plans
in the area of mass transportation.
The information could not be
furnished, said Gilligan, "because we have no organizational structure, or planung facil-

ity, to even begin to assemble
the necessary factual information."
He said Ohio presently has 14
area -wide planning groups but
each deals only with the problems of just one specific area
with no exchange of information and no coordination of ef.
fort.
" Ohio has more cities and
more major urban regions than
any state in the union , but no
machinery
whatever
to
examine and study the
problems of the state as a
whole," said Gilligan.
" The whole economic future
of this entire region will be determined in no small part by
how successful we are in developing
a
comprehensive,
modern, efficient and coordinated transportation system

Located on Scout Camp Road
about 11/z miles from Chester is
Camp Kiashuta. Although it
looks deserted to most
passersby, it was used twentyone weekends in 1970 according
to William R. Knight, M-G-M
District Chairman.
Camp Kiashuta was used by
four Girl Scout Troops, 11 Boy
Scout Troops, as a base for a
scoutmaster training, an Order
of the Arrow work party, a M-GM fellowship picnic, a Philmont
reunion, as well as by nine units
participating in the Fall
Camporee. Using pioneering as
its theme, the campers started
fires by flint and steel and made
their tents from plastics.
Camp Kiashuta is owned by
the Tri-State Area Council for
use by scout units and other
groups by permission. The
maintenance is done by the
Scout units and Order of the
Arrow members.
Anyone wishing to use Camp
Kiashuta should call or see
William Knight, Point Pleasant,
for a reservation.
The Johnston Historical
Museum near New Brunswick,,
N. J ., houses thousands of
exhibits from the world of
Scouting including mementos
and works of Scouting's founder, Lord Baden-Powell, who
created the program in 1907.
Nearly 72,000 adult volunteer
unit leaders in Scouting take
training each year to provide
better programs for their boys.

The newest Explorer Post in
the M-G-M District is Post 235,
sponsored by Eastern High
School.
This Explorer Post was
organized as a result of a survey
taken at the end of last school
year in which high school
students listed their top three
preferences. The Ashland Oil
and Refining Co. and Armco
Steel Co. provided the Tri-State
Area Council with a computer
printout to aid the guidance
counselors in the survey.
The specialty of Post 235 is
automobile mechanics. Francis
Benedum is the post advisor .
The committee chairman is
Harold Newell, and members of
the committee are Paul
Buckley, Robert Tripp and
Roger Gaul. Frederick Goebel
is the associate advisor and the
institutional representative is
Garry Parsons.
An effort is being made to
organize other specialty posts
such as in law enforcement,
medicine, art, and photography.

Boypower '76 Saluted
Each day newspaper offices are inundated with promotions for special days and weeks
that have been launched by organizations with an ax to grind. National Green Olive Week,
National Electric Sign Week, National Sweater Week, National Macaroni Week, and many
others follow ad nauseam in a never-ending stream into the nearest wastebasket. But this
month, the Daily Sentinel is more than happy to join in the celebration of a week sponsored by
an organization that has literally many axes to grind. We refer to the Boy Scouts of America
that is celebrating the 61st anniversary of its founding during the annual Boy Scout month of
February.
The purpose of the organization as outlined in the Federal Charter is ''to promote, through
organization and cooperation with other agencies the ability of boys to do things for themselves
and others, to train them in Scoutcraft, and to teach them patriotism, courage, self-reliance,
and kindred virtues, using the methods which are in common use by Boy Scouts." How successfully they have carried out this mandate is a matter of public record. Since Scouting came
to America in 1910, over 47 million boys have been prepared for their responsibilities by this
·
unique educational, physical fitness, and character development program.
Until recently, Scouting was thought of as a white, middle-&lt;!lass, outdoor~riented
organization that spent a great deal of time doing nothing more than helping old ladies across
the streets and rubbing sticks togehter. This, of course, was unfair. Scouting has always been
an educational and service organization that has done a superlative job of turning boys into
responsible citizens ... and it has been available to boys of all races, colors, creeds, without
regard to economic status. Scouting is justifiably proud of its many famous ex-Scouts such as
Astronaut Neil Armstrong and President John F. Kennedy, but it is equally proud of millions
who have remained in their home communities and put into practice the principles they
learned as Scouts.
The Scouts are also bursting with pride at the record of their new long-range plan known as
BOYPOWER '76. It is a determined attempt to change the future course of Scouting to make it
more relevant to the needs and concerns of today's youth. The plan calls for many innovations
in programs and of disadvantaged youths from the inner-city and low~pportunity areas of
rural America. BOYPOWER '76 is bringing Scouting to the blacks of the inner-&lt;!ity, to boys of
low-income Appalachia, to Indian boys, to the physically handicapped, to boys of Cuban- and
Mexican-American origin, and to many other minority groups.

There are Changes in '71
The Boy Scout anniversary observance has a new look this year.
The name is changed. It is no longer Boy Scout Week. It is now the Anniversary Celebration of the
Boy Scouts of America.
The time is changed. It's no lqnger a week. It's a month- the month of February. This will give
an opportunity to include blue and gold dinners and carry out other local, regional, and national
activities as well as the Anniversary Day.
The approach is changed. National Youth Representatives and a Reader's Digest- Boy Scouts of
America National Public Speaking Contest have replaced the traditional Report to the Nation
program. Unit observances centered around February 8th will remain much the same as before
except that they will have the added excitement of the kickoff of our Project SOAR -the naLional
conservation Good Turn.
The public is invited on this 61st birthday to help give BOYPOWER '76 a big lift.

It Was a Terrible Year

1

WASHINGTON, D. C. Pushed upward by a record
disaster year and the spiraling
cost of all operations, American
Red Cross expenditures for
services to the American people
and U. S. military personnel
around the world came to
$149,360,647 in 1969-70, highest
since World War II.
The record expenditure figure
topped the previous fiscal
year's operating costs by more
than $29.2 million and exceeded
Red Cross income for the year
by $2.2 million, the organization
announced in its 1970 Annual
Report, which has just been
published.
Income during the year
totaled $147,087,885, the Red
Cross reported, and $112,766,000
of this amount came from the
annual membership and fund
drive, the greater part of it in
partnership campaigns with
United Way groups. Over
33,586,500 Americans gave one
dollar or more to become Red
Cross members.
Assistance to disaster victims
in 1969-70 came to $32,625,556,
bringing Red Cross ex·
penditures for disaster aid in
the decade of the sixties to
$145,974,000, highest for any tenyear period on record. In 688
disaster relief operations
during the year, 397,000 persons
received emergency mass care
and 43, .00 families were given
~ong -term recovery help in
repairing or rebuilding and
refurnishing their damaged
homes . Following Hurricane
Camille alone , over 29,000
families were aided at a cost of
$21 million.
Serving members of the
nation 's armed forces and their
families again required the
largest portion of Red Cross
funds- $56,754,145. During the
year,
121,500 servicemen
received Red Cross service
each month at military posts
and hospitals around the world.
Here at home Red Cross
chapter workers gave 2,708,500
services to families of armed
forces members. Aid was also
given to 109,900 veterans and
their families.
Featured in the report, which
covers the activities of the
national organization and its
3,240 chapters during the 12month period ending last June
30, are the 2,310,000 Red Cross
volunteers, mainstays of the
organization's activities and
without whom it could not
operate. Progress was reported
on the Red Cross goal of involving and serving persons not
previously reached by its
programs. Increased service
and new opportunities for
volunteering were provided for
those in depressed areas.
The year's highlights also
included priority attention
being given by the American
Red Cross to efforts on behalf of
U. S. prisoners of war in
Southeast Asia. In striving to
lessen the suffering of the
prisoners and their families
back home, the Red Cross
called on the American people

to join in a "Write Hanoi"
campaign, urging North
Vietnamese authorities to give
prisoners the humane treatment called for in the Geneva
Conventions. A similar plea was
made in an American • sponsored resolution, adopted
without dissent at the XXIst
International Conference in
Istanbul.
Communications
between prisoners and their
families improved greatly
during the year, the report
states.

increase of 105,000 over the
preceding year. Blood and blood
products were distributed by
the organization to 4,000
hospitals in 50 states, the
District of Columbia, Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands.
Increasing stress was given to

A check for $200 was given the
firemen toward buying fire

been ordered.
Orders are being taken for
Easter baskets. The only size
being made this year is the $1
size. Homemade Easter eggs
will also be made and sold for 15
cents each. Phone numbers to
call to give orders are 992-2015,
992-2659 or 992-2481.
The ladies made 500 baskets
during January. Teachers and
Sunday School teachers may
order the homemade eggs for
their students if they wish.
The town will be solicited for
money this year to help defray
the cost of items needed to
make the eggs.
The group is always open for
new members or help in any
way. This town is badly in need
of a new fire truck. The

HOSPITAL NEWS

Miller Bill Would Aid
Small SE Ohio Farmers
WASHINGTON, D. C. Tenth District Congressman
~larence E. Miller Monday
mtroduced legislation amending the Agricultural Act of 1970
to provide for small farm
participation in the USDA feed
grain program and restore full
diversion payments for set
aside acreage on farms with
less than 25 acres feed grain
base.
Miller's bill would provide
that an operator who resides on
a farm which has a feed grain
base of 25 acres or less which
has not changed ownership
since Jan. 1, 1971 may without
reduction of the farm's feed
grain base elec t to set
aside and devote to conservation practices 100 per cent
of the farm's feed grain
base for any crop year.
Under the new 1970 Agricultural
Act enacted last November by
the Nixon Adminis tration
unless a small farmer plants 45

per cent of his feed grain base
he will lose 20 per cent of that
base in 1971, another 20 per cent
in 1972, and the remaining 60
per cent in 1973. In previous
years a small farmer with a 25
acre base or less was allowed to
divert the required 20 per cent
of his base or as much as 50 per
cent to be eligible to receive a
diversion payment.
Miller s tated that the
measure he is sponsoring will
restore those features of the
1965 act giving small farmers
diversion options and preserving the historical feed grain
base for their farms.
"The purpose behind this
bill," Miller explained, "is to
keep many small farmers who
have'raised their families on the
farm and are now retired or

elderly fr om losing their
diversion payments which in
the past have enabled them to
pay their taxes and provide a
small income to suppor t
themselves.
Miller , a ~ember of the
House Agriculture Committee,
has been meeting with
Representatives
of
the
Department of Agriculture for
several weeks on the problem
and has pledged to work for
early enactment of his bill in the
92nd Congress.

The Sermonette
By Rev. Eugene Gill
Laurel Cliff Free Methodist Church

A PLACE CALLED HELL
I approach this subject with some hesitancy, not because I am
afraid of the reproach, but simply because I hate to think of
anyone having to spend eternity away from God and everything
that is good. To millions 'Hell' i s nothing more than a word to
swear by. However, the word of God teaches there i s a place
called Hell prepared for the devil and his angels, and also for all
unrepentant sinners. I would not attempt to use my imagination in
describing for you that place . I would ask you to read for yourselves Ps. 9:17, Matt. 25-41, Matt. 13:41-12; Luke 13: 24-30, Rev. 2014 and others.
said a moment ago "I hate to think of anyone having to
spend eternity away from God. The glorious fact of the Gospel i s:
we don't have to be lost. We can respond to the gospel , and be
saved; not merely from Hell but from sin and its degrading
effects on our lives. Now!

I

God's love for the sinner is seen in tbe work of atonement done
at the Cross of Christ.
His mercy i s seen in His permitting unbelieving rebellious
men to live in sin while on earth, hurting themselves and others.
His hatred for sin i s seen in the ultimate place of torment
(Luke 16:23) for all who refuse to be delivered from sin in this life .
If Hell is an imaginary place then so is Heaven. Choose what you
will to believe. I believe they are both reaL

These are the wonderful years, when there is so much to learn - and
hours enough in which to learn it.
Youth has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge; also the desire,
the capacity and the energy to absorb - if given even a little encourage·
ment. But today, perhaps more than ever before in history, youth does
need guidance.
Be sure the young people in your life have the opportunity to ex•
amine the whole picture. But in their search for the stars, don't let them
forget the miracle of this planet upon which they live and its Creator.
Let them know their church.
