TheBricker amendment could end many of our worries, so please inform your readers of this important legislation and inspire them to send letters supporting its passage. Let's not miss by one vote this time! I have sent this message to several editors in California. I am enjoying reading a copy of the Utah Independent through a friend's copy. think your paper is terrific.

That was all most opposition developed insistence of the internationalists around the State and in Department. Article IV of the Genocide Treaty reads as follows: "Persons committing genocide or any of the other acts enumerated in Article III shall be punished (2) whether they are responsible or officials INDIVIDUALS. The undefinable "causing mental harm" is listed within the meaning of genocide in Article II. the treaty states: "Persons charged with genocide or any of the other acts enumerated in Article III shall be tried by a competent tribunal of the State in the territory of which the act was committed, or by such international penal tribunal as may have jurisdiction with respect to those contracting (3) Article VI of shall parties which have accepted its jurisdiction." Article VII provides for mandatory extradition. Thus ratification of this UN Genocide Treaty automatically accepts jurisdiction of the International Court of justice and nullifies protection of the Connally Reservation, which provides that neither the United States nor its citizens may be brought bifore the World Court without the consent of the U.S. Government. We can only hope that a continuing flood of protest mail to members of the Senate will this cause of them asked. A terrible price was paid, but posterity has x triumphed. To make it so, fifty-sitheir Americans pledged lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor. It was no idle pledge. Nine Signers died of wounds or hardships during the Revolutionary War. Five were captured or imprisoned. The wives, sons and daughters of others were killed, jailed, mistreated, persecuted or left penniless. The houses of twelve signers were burned to the ground. Seventeen lost everything they owned. Every signer was proscribed as a traitor; everyone was hunted and most were driven into flight. Most were offered immunity, freedom, rewards, their property or the lives and release of loved ones to break their pledged word or to take the King's protection. No signer defected or changed his stand throughout the darkest hours.... Their honor, like the Nation, remained intact. These men died and most are almost forgotten by their countrymen. This does not really matter; men die and are forgotten. What does matter is that the people of a country remember that Freedom comes high! Food Reprinted from Thought , Glendale, Calif. of many countries, especially from the United of States, on the streets Kabul. These young people, many of them, have come from as far west qp Antwerp and Paris. They have come down through the Balkans, through Turkey and Iran, into Afghanistan. Some went up to'Nepal, and some planned to go down into India, and so on. I had heard about it, but I did not realize the meaning until I got to Kabul and saw these young people on the streets, most of them very poorly dressed, very dirty, many of them very emaciated, due to the fact that they had not had anything to eat for a long time. They come in there and they live on drugs primarily. They can do this, because the drugs in Kabul are cheap, relatively speaking. With hashish, (a potent extract of marijuana - Ed.) they can sustain their addiction there on about 40 cents to 60 cents a day, and when they have this much drug they do not care for food. They lose their appetite and they lose their weight, and get down to where they are just skin and bones. Qen evvli Walt, U.S.M.C.

Dorothea Barner For Answer To Exhaust Pollution An intelligent scientific answer for automobile exhaust pollution is hatching in California. Four skilled engineers, employed in industries around Los Angeles, are making experiments that may yield big results. Their answer: The use of a mixture of pure oxygen and pure hydrogen gases, fed into gasoline engines only slightly modified to make the new fuel com- patible. Result: None of that complicated junk out back that destroys gas eliminate mileage and might well-nig- h driving as we have known it. The idea is practical and it will work once it is debugged. Oxy hydrogen powers fuel cells today without risk, and drives upper -- stages of all large missile rockets. Without this prime fuel no moon shot would have been successful. But the problem is to persuade the auto indus- try (and government bureaucracies) that highly inflammable hydrogen is actually no more dangerous than gasoline. The inventors, who call themThe Perris Smogless Autoselves mobile Association, have driven test cars around of Los Angeles, small east a Perris, city more without miles or a thousand accident or arrest and with considerable advantage in fuel economy. Banner promise of the scheme is that millions of standard car engines can be converted to the fuel without fundaand heres the mental changes clincher: their exhausts will set nothing loose in the air but water and heat. The gas car is a brave oxy-hydrog- start in a situation where effective engineering is battered by bureaucracy and unreasoning public fear. We wish these enterprising innovators good hunting!
