Marriage and Family Counseling Bureau School of Social Work Co-op Wednesday's Chronicle em-.' em-.' harrasses me greatly. I certainly didn't realize in the interview that the well-intentioned reporter had ; n0 framework in which to put my comments, which I considered to be just additions to an article submitted by Eleanor Inskip. The Peoples Co-op is a city-wide organization operated by its ; members and not "under the ' direction of John Wade." It has ' a unit at LaHacienda on 5th West as well as one at Campus Christian : Center an may well have others. ; we do not open for "mid-week f purchases" but do sell during the ! regular hours items not pre-ordered ' if we happen to have them. I, as an 1 individual am a firm believer in the lettuce boycott (a member of the steering committee of the Utah Lettuce Boycott, in fact, in my capacity as a representative of the ": National Farm Worker Ministry support group in Utah). But ! Campus Christian Center as an 1 institution is more than John Wade ; and has not taken a position on the boycott. Campus Christian Center ' is glad to furnish space for the Peoples Co-op, but the co-op is not ' a part of our program run by us. : Meanwhile, let me encourage anyone interested to inquire and r join the co-op, which operates on Friday evening, beginning at 6 p.m., E and on Satruday, beginning at 11 r a.m.. Thank you, Fred, for coming ? in to talk about the co-op and for being a warm and open personl ' John Wade Amazed : Editor: t As reasonably concerned, i sensitive citizens we are amazed at " the inability of the American people to begin to question the re-election f. campaign of President Nixon. It is appalling that through six or seven major scandals from the ITT Affair i to the Russian Grain Deal, by way of the Dairymen's Subsidy the - amazing resurrection of Jimmy I Hoffa, the American people have I become totally inured to the Ad-I Ad-I ministration's actions. The real threat, we think, lies not in the scandals themselves but in the quiet acquiescence with which the American public submits to the Administration's arrogant refusal to be called to account. Yesterday (Oct. 10) the FBI disclosed that the Watergate bugging incident stemmed from a massive campaign of political spying and sabotage conducted on behalf, and directed by officials of the White House and the Committee Com-mittee for the Re-election of the President. The results of this effort apparently contributed to the sudden, unexplained demise of the Muskie Campaign. Federal investigators in-vestigators stated that while a certain amount of intelligence work is normal, what is being done by the Nixon Administration is unprecedented un-precedented in its scope and intensity. in-tensity. Their tactics have included "having Democratic candidates and their families followed, forging letters and distributing them under the candidates' letterheads, leaking false and manufactured items to the press, throwing campaign files, and investigating the lives of dozens of Democratic campaign workers." Americans, what does it take? How can a country that justifies a $90 billion a year budget for the defense of freedom passively watch as its own government plot to undermine the most essential element of democracy, free Meg Fuller H. Michael Clyde Brian Moench Take a stand Editor: It may be of interest to you to note in your next edition that there is a great irony in the making in this years' election, here in Salt Lake City. It has long been a tradition in the past for the candidates to speak out on the major issues confronting the communities and our nation. In national elections the major issues would be those that affect the general public. In general elections, candidates attack issues that most directly involve us, "the Community." Com-munity." The irony is thisl The one thing that affects everybody, rich, poor, White or Black is healthl Pollution should be the number one issue in Salt Lake City, but is not. No candidate will dare take a stand on the controversial extension on pollution control devices, granted by the state to Kennecott corporations cor-porations a short time ago. Neither, will the candidates make the pollution Kennecott produces everyday an issue. On a clear day you can see for miles unless you happen to face west. Then one is not sure if that dense haze on the horizon is storm clouds or a plague of locusts. Since we the people are the ones that will eventually suffer, I think we should make Kennecott an issue and have the candidates commit themselves to some kind of definite solution before it is too late. Al Martinez No kidding Editor: Concerning R. Shockey's letter of 10-11-72: IIEEabc 1...EaEbc 2. EaEbc 1. Biconditional Regrouping Stephen Shepherd Counseling Editor: On Oct. 2, 1972, the Utah Chronicle carried an excellent feature article regarding the counselling services available to students and faculty here at the University. Beginning this year, for budgetary reasons, counseling services at the University were reorganized. The article carried no mention of the fact that there still exists in the School of Social Work a Marriage and Family Counseling Bureau. While the staff has been somewhat reduced, there is still a staff large enough to care for many of the marriage and family counseling needs of the students and faculty here at the University. We are aware that your feature writer probably thought all services had been transferred to the Counseling Bureau located in the Annex. We are sending this letter in order that the situation might be clarified. We in the School of Social Work welcome inquiries from anyone seeking guidance in their personal or family life and invite all students and faculty to use both of these available services: the excellent counseling services located in the |
