Deseret Stake Leaders' Statement and Request "It is the consensus of opinion among psychiatrists, social case workers, and educators as well as criminologists vhat there is widespread wide-spread disregard for law and au thority, and that it could well be : the beginning of the decline and fall of the United States," so spoke Dr. James A. Brussel, crime psychiatrist psy-chiatrist of New York City and a chief witness in the Sirhan murder trial. The famous psychiatrist was disturbed not so much by individual individ-ual crimes but by the general attitudes at-titudes in today's society. And being be-ing more specific, the cause for the widespread fear is the rebelling, particularly by youth against authority. au-thority. It is basic that authority implies that which pertains to right and wrong. We learn the fundamentals fun-damentals of right and wrong the moment we are born. According to the psychiatrist, usually what our parents teach, is what society accepts. In the Church wo realize that long before a child can understand the burden of worthy preachment or absorb an educational precept, he can imitate what he sees. The First Presidency and General Authorities Au-thorities of the LDS Church feel that the home is the real source of strength in combating the pres ent evils of society. Accordingly they have requested an upgraded and carefully planned home program pro-gram to be carried out in all homes. President Alvin R. Dyer, counselor counse-lor to the President of the LDS Church, stated in General Confer ence that the Lord had warned his people of the penetration of evil in the last days and gave as an example the concepts of the "new morality" which has been substi- iuiea ior a code of right and wrong. Acting upon the request of the First Presidency, and with an earnest ear-nest desir.'" for pverv familv tn -A strengthen their home and fortifv it Against lawlessness, the Deseret stake Presidency, after careful deliberation, de-liberation, with numerous groups, i:s designating and requesting a family home evening to be held preferably each Wednesday evening eve-ning for a selected period of approximately ap-proximately one hour. All LDS Church functions are asked to be discontinued on that day which would in any way conflict con-flict with this program of improving improv-ing home and family relationships. It is urged that no use of any Church facility be scheduled for this time. The Stake Presidency earnestly the sand dunes. Outside the posted area the sand buggies, motorcycles, trail bikes, and tote-gotes had nearly 100,000 acres of sand dunes to try out for size. The forty foot, red and white stripped "Homing Pole" erected by BLM a year ago to help lost chil dren find their way back to then- camp seems to be doing the job, but three children and one small dog were grateful for the help they had from BLM personnel to find their family. Everyone who visit the Little Sahara Sa-hara Sand Dunes remembers something some-thing different about their visit. Some remember the fun they had on their sand buggies and trail bikes. Others will remember the sand castles they made, the holes they dug in the sand.how far they Services Held for Arthur S.
