Show THE SALT LAKE TIMES The follownig letters were recently answered by the Department of State: Can you tell me if there is such a place as Hangchow, China? If there is such a place can you give me some information about it? This information will be of great help to me in social science for our class has become bogged down with arguments as to whether or not it still exists. J.A.H. Concord, N. C. Dear Mr. H.: Hangchow, also spelled Hangchou, is a seaport in Chekiang Province, Communist China, located at 30 degrees north latitude and 120 degrees east longitude, slightly southwest of todays Shanghai. Hangchow has been noted for its beauty. There is also a bay of the same name east of the city. ably know, a number of American missionaries of several different religious faiths are presently residing in Pakistan. In addition, about 3,000 resident American citizens, mostly U.S. Government employees, currently are living and working in Pakistan, Unfortunately, during the hostilities when emotions ran high, there were several untoward incidents involving the American citizens in Pakistan. However, none of our citizens was injured or otherwise harmed and the general situation is, of course, now greatly improved. We have had, despite recent difficulties, a long and mutually beneficial relationship with Pakistan. We want to maintain this kind of relationship. We consider that it is in our interest as well as in the interest of Pakistan that we try to help the people of that country to improve their economic well being and social conditions. For this reason we have recently advanced several loans to the Government of Pakistan, including that for $8 million of which you wrote. We of course regret the incident which you described, but are confident that any recurrence is much less likely now. You may be assured that any case of maltreatment of American citizens in Pakistan which is brought to the attention of our Embassy or the Department will be taken up vigorously with Pakistan officials. A few minutes after I had real a missionary report about our missionaries to Pakistan being chased out of there, I heard the news commentator announce that you had decided to loan Pakistan $8 million. How can you do that to the American people? F.H. Renton, Wash. Dear Mrs. H.: Your letter refers to the ill treatment of United States missionaries in Pakistan during the India - Pakistan hostilities of September, 1965. As you prob Columnist Finds New Morality9 A Disappointment -- The new morality among college girls which says that sex is fine, provided you are in love isnt dong for coeds what they desperately hope it will, social commentator Max Lerner declared. Girls are using sex in an effort to break out of isolation and b.ut get through to someone Lerit isnt working, contended ner, a college teacher for thirty years, author and newspaper columnist, in an article in a recent issue of Redbook. The reality appears to be that many young people have taken as one of their basic rights the freedom to sleep together if they choose, he said. But he found the result is terror of freedom . . . tension, a sense of guilt. Lerner based these conclusions on his own observations and on a study of the transcript of a racy, repetitive, confused, honest, witty,1 pathetic and hiconversation among larious nine college girls. He reported that one of them, a coed from the University of 54-pa- ge Wisconsin, seemed to be speaking for. her generation when she said, Sex becomes a way to feel like somebody, to feel like somebody cares what happens to you. Sex seems to be a very important way in which a person can get through to a person. The Lerner: Commented great hunger in the college years is not, I suspect, the sexual hunger, but the hunger for getting through to someone. The coeds on the panel seemed agreed that sexual freedom is not a blessing without consequences. What happens, a Vassar junior said, is that you get caught up and are sleeping with your boy friend for prestige, so you can talk about it, and then after- - Page Nine FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1966 1 ward you have to work out your morality around what youve done. A senior girl from Antioch College revealed: At Antioch, I have found out, it is very important that you sleep with your boy friend, not with just anyone. If you dont youre completely out. But then there are the girls who dont have boy friends, and theyre out also. And so they have to decide either to be promiscuous or chaste, and I think that chastity is looked down upon far more than promiscuity. A gnawing isolation, wrote Lerner in Redbook, leads some college girls to the mistake of starting with the end result, the sexual relationship, missing the encounter of personalities that leads up to that result, missing the spell of enchantment, the budding of wonder at the experience of love, the flowering of knowledge of the boy through the whole sequence of sharing. Missing these, she misses also the full completion of the sexual relationship when it fits into the rest of her life. Instead she uses sex as a shortcut, to anneal her loneliness and her isolation. And it doesnt work. Many college girls have abandoned the codes of their parents, said Lerner, and the blame beand to longs to the parents their inability or reluctance to communicate with their daughters. The reason parents refuse to believe what ought to be reasonably obvious about their daughters sex life is that if they saw it, they would have to do something about it, or else face their own lack of communication with her and loss of control over her, Lerner said in Redbook. What they fear to face is not so much her moral lapse as their the failure to keep own failure in touch with her, the failure even to have listened. black bears stops traffic along monly seen on Yellowstone's 300 miles of the Madison River in Yellowstone National roads, bears are to be treated with cautious Park.

Moss Supports Four Year Term For Congressmen Sen. Frank E. Moss Wednesday testified in support of a Constitutional amendment which would provide four-yeterms for members of the House of Representatives. The Utah Democrat said that Extending members terms to four years will afford each Member more time to acquire expertise in legislative matters; to participate more fully and thoughtfully and more deliberately in the resolving of the great issues of the day. If he has the ability, he can build a record of constructive contribution to this nations welfare and to the welfare of his constituents. Sen. Moss said that the House of Representatives would benefit from the gain in experience and the greater stability of membership brought about by the adoption of the Constitutional amendment. A new member spends his first year in office learning how to do his job and the second year trying to hang onto his job so that he can apply what he learned the first year. Sen.

The musical drama tells the story of the Mormon exodus at Nauvoo, Illinois, through the freezing winds of Council Bluffs and winted quarters, across the vastness of the midwest and in what is now Utah. The pioneers crossed a wilderness and forged an empire from a desolate wasteland destined to one day blossom as a rose. Junius R. Tribe, president of the organization which produces All Faces West, claims the story of the production is as great as America itself, with the laughters, the tears, the drama, the color and the very heart and voice of a driven people and their march to greatness told in this moving historical epic. Mr. Tribe also lauds singer Gorin for his vital contribution to the pageant over the years.
