LIBERAL SEX? The following editorial , which we think is quite good, is taken from the Box Elder News in Brigham City. We hear a lot these days about declining morality and the supposed demise of God who many consider to be dead, gone to some great beyond and left the world to shift for itself. Even from among the ranks of clergy are these scraps of philosophy emerging. We heard a spokesman for this inclined brand of modem thinkers the other evening. He is the publisher of a leading mans magazine which dispenses a sophisticated kind of writing and picture concern art, not the least of which is a with naked women and riske stories. HE OPINES that societys moral codes arc strictly horse and buggy in scope and ought to be remodeled to add some chrome and horsepower equivalent to todays needs. This super sophisticate contends that mans behavior requires consideration beyond the simple "Thou shalt not . . . approach. And he suggested that societys way would be the better is prostitution were condoned as a legal activity, reasoning that it now runs unabated behind closed doors and what people want, theyre going to get regardless of the law. We dont pretend to have the intellect nor super sophisticated store of knowledge of this prominent dealer in bunnies and funnies. But we do have some thoughts of our own on the subject. First, its encumbent upon a progressive and humble people always to their thinkso with success, heaping discovery ing. Weve done upon discovery in virtually every area of mans concern. BUT THIS doesnt mean that we should attempt to alter basic principles as advocated by the liberal love spokesmen. Because some people suffer anxieties about sex, is this justification for letting down the bars of moral conduct? Because there is traffic in prostitution and men will do what they will, should society stamp it with a seal of approval? AND FINALLY, who is the better off for his earthly experience, the young person with a wholesome understanding of sex who disciplines himself to the benefit of his marriage partner and family, or the one who throws off the shakles of Puritan ethics and participates in promiscuous sexual adventures? IN MANS history, regardless of time and setting, general promiscuity never did breed happiness nor anything of real worth. Why should it now in this day of four on the floor and satellites on the moon? It was the same in mans beginning because it is an eternal truth and eternal truths do not change, only conditions and the interpretations of men change. non-subt- le Local Resident Praised For Helpfulness (Tlie following letter concerning a local resident appeared in Mondays Salt Lake Tribune.) Editor, Tribune: With my family I was recently touring in lTtah when an event occurred which leaves a very appreciative memory. On a lonely stretch of High way 89 the clutch of our car went out, leaving us stranded. The only habitation in sight was a small farm. I was trudging toward this, hoping to locale a phone, when the farmer emerged, driving a well-usepickup. He had r.o telephone, but without further ado he produced a chain and proceeded to tow both thi disabled car and our tent campei to Glendale, the nearest town 'Here the car was fixed.

Do we have ordinances which give specifications for location, width, etc., on new sidewalks? Do we have ordinances to regulate plantings in regard to distance from walks, intersections and utilities? Should we have ordinances for the above purposes? We have the good fortune of inheriting wide residential streets however, houses set close to lot lines (front and side) do pose problems. Would it be well to have an ordinance placing new side waiks on the street right of way a foot or two from lot lines? That should help some on our present weed problem in streets and allow more space for plantings in yards. Should any future planting of trees be kept five feet from edge of side walk to keep roots from heaving walks in future years? Should allowance be made to build walks around any existing trees? How far should future plantings be kept from utility lines, if tall growing species? About Town by Forace Green Mr. Green What helps my neighbor, helps me. To Our Men In The Service, T.ianks, Sincerely we Recently on KSL-Tinterviews with men from Utah in Vietnam. Major Duane Riggs, son of Mr. and wort-watchin- Mrs. Elson Riggs, 261 South 1st West, Kanab, was among those Like the others, interviewed. Major Riggs fully supported the position of the United States in the war. He said he thought that the U.S. was moving victory and that under the circumstances the conduct of the war was satisfactory. We dont recall ever meeting tfic Major but we certainly appreciate wliat he and his are doing and companions want to say thanks, sincerely. We want them to know that we support fully their views and their objectives, and that we are back of them in the fight for freedom. One young soldier when asked if he were in agreement with what he was doing there said, "I would rather be fighting hc-ithan in my own back yard. The cause has never been put more direct or more simple. There is no question in the mind of anyone who thinks it through that if we didnt take a stand there we would eventually have to take it here. If Vietnam went, Laos would be next, then Thailand and Cambodia. Malaysia would already be communist and the Philippines could not possibly have held out. How long could India last without the protection of the frea world? Would Russia have stayed out of Israel had we not tax-e- n a stand in Vietnam? Would they have stayed out of West Germany had we let them take over West Berlin? The scales could easily have been tipped in Africa, could still be, had wo not stood up for the freedom of small nations. And South America would have been next. Europe could not possibly have held out with most of the rest of the world against d them. And then it would le the United States alone. This isnt a pipe dream. This is a planned program worked out in detail by both Russia and China. And it will still happen it we do not use our armed might to protect the small nations. Taken in this context the suggestion of another service man intei viewed made sense. When asked what he thought about the draft card burners back heme, he said he would line them up against a wall and have them shot. If there were very many of them this action might be necessary. But being so few, they can be contained in our jails until they come to their senses. We suppose there will always be a few who in their lu. t for power will sacrifice the freedom of the many for their own gain. Thank goodness that our man in Vietnam know wliat they are fighting for. And thank goodness that our leaders realize fully what some of our citizens dont. No matter how much we disagree on other matters, or even on methods of winning the war, we must continue to agree on the main objective, that of keeping freedom alive in the world. So thanks again, Major Riggs and all our boys from Utah and Arizona and the rest of America and the other freedom loving nations taking part in thi fighting. The world owes you a debt of gratitude we will new be able to pay. But we sincerelv appreciate it. Marlin B. Brown, Publisher Southern Utah News Dear Mr. Brown: I suppose most things will turn out all right in the world when we can get a smile out of a most dead serious subject. Your statement in last weeks editorial under the title A Tree Grew In Kanab this smile was If anything we will everyone is of the that brought we dont hear conclude tiiat same mind in desiring the trees removed under cover of night. You had just invited people to write giving their opinion about the trees along the highway in front of the new church lawn being cut down by a vandal. As an editor you know that there is all too little interest on the part of most people about the rights and wrongs of this life, and you were trying to some into writing.. You also realize, we are sure, that everyone condemns such an act, even to the one who did it and that that individual stands condemned by everyone who does not write in to defend him. There is one justifiable argument for not having the trees where they were. That is they in time might partially block the view of motorists to the businesses west of the church lot on that side of the street. Every other valid argument is for the trees where they were. There is no argument, however, in favor of pio-vok- e removing the trees as they were removed and every argument against it. This is why we joined with two other men in each offering a reward of $100 for the arrest and conviction of the person cutting down the trees. We moved to Kanab to enjoy the benefits of a small town. One of these was to get away from the contentions of city life. It hasnt worked out quite that way, but this is by far the most serious of anything that has happened here. It could well be the forerunner to the lawlessness of riots and crime that are taking place throughout the United States if the people of the community and our public officials do not take a stand against it. Sincerely, About Town Buy Bonds where you work. In regard to the recent vandalletters to the editor describe the type of sickness in the north ?rn part of the state. Small girls could possibly sPp out to do such work in early morning hours; however, it was probably done by physically or nearly mature males of very it had small mental capacity to be done in the dark. If anyone was capable of calling attention to legitimate obje tions regarding location or of planting he would surely be too mature for an act of that crt. There would surely be a very few local suspects for thoje suspecting religious intolerance.
