Subscription In advance, per year $5.00; per copy 10c EDITORIAL FEDERAL BUDGET CONTROL Once again we have seen the vast amount of attention atten-tion given to the President's budget message by the nation's press. Editorials and feature articles dissect dis-sect it, but soon the 500-odd-page budget document will gather dust on the shelves of libraries. Why? The complicated appropriation bills in Congress fragment the budget requests and make it almost impossible, even for experienced members of Congress, to have any idea of the impact of each bill on the overall fiscal state of the nation. The proposal to reform the appropriations process proc-ess by having Congress consider all appropriations in two bills (one dealing with defense and national security and the other with all other federal requirements) require-ments) makes real sense. Grouping the appropriation bills into two categories cate-gories would help bring home to Congress and the public the need to establish priorities.

' A PRESIDENTIAL FALLACY EXAMINED One of our favorite daily newspapers is the Manchester (N.H.) Union Leader, published by William Loeb. It is popular in its home town and state, having one of the highest relative re-lative circulations among daily newspapers in America. And because of the aggressive patriotism pa-triotism and journalistic integrity inte-grity of its publisher and staff, it is becoming a national institution. in-stitution. Recently Publisher Loeb attended an imporant meeting in Hartford, Connecticut, Connecti-cut, and subsequently wrote an important front-page editorial in his Union Leader. We think our readers coast-to-coast will appreciate its insight and logic: "At a special briefing for newspaper, radio and television editors and publishers from the eastern part of the United States at Hartford on Columbus Day, President Nixon showed the brilliance of his mind in delivering a concise 10 to 15 minute summary of the main problems in the Vietnam situation situa-tion and in the Middle East, and his solutions to those problems. prob-lems. It was an impressive performance. per-formance. Basic Assumption Questioned "There is, however, one fallacy fal-lacy to President Nixon's thinking for which he is not to blame but which could be fatal to the United States. Mr. Nixon is making the basic assumption as-sumption that Communist leaders lead-ers are as the leaders of the United States essentially sensible people motivated by the same understanding of logic that we have in this country. Based on his assumption, assump-tion, Mr. Nixon reasons that at some point the Communists will realize that tremendous amounts of money are being spent by them in the armaments arma-ments race and that it is simply sim-ply not worth it, and that if we make reasonable proposals to them to halt the arms race on both sides, they will agree because be-cause it is in their interest to agree. "Indeed, such an arrangement arrange-ment is in the interest of any sensible individual. However, the fallacy in the whole assumption as-sumption is that when it comes to Communist goals, the Communists Com-munists are not reasonable. gO MORE WILL LIVE fit ":MM t d- .J Dr. Joe A.

Glenn Gary Goodell returned to duty Sunday after spending a 30-day leave over the holidays here with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Goodell and other relatives and friends. Pvt.

He completed his basic training in Fort Lewis, Washington and then took further schooling in Postal Operations at Ft. Benjamin Ben-jamin Harrison in Indiana. They are fanatics. A fanatic is perfectly well aware of what his madness may cost him but he disregards that in favor of his goals. Plan to Plunder World "The Russians understand perfectly that they are currently current-ly spending twice the percentage percent-age of total national income on arms that we are. But, first of all, they don't have to be concerned about the grumblings grumb-lings of the average Russian because there is iron-tight control con-trol over the population through the use of terror. Furthermore, Fur-thermore, they reason that once they have overwhelming military superiority over the United States, they can force us to surrender and then control con-trol the world and plunder it to their heart's content to supply sup-ply the need for consumer goods. "It is this same failure to understand the fanatic Communist Commu-nist mind that makes the leadership lead-ership of the United States so inept at dealing with the bombers bomb-ers and arsonists and kidnapers kid-napers within the United States. Any attempt to deal with these people as if they were rational is j doomed? to failure. As in the case of bur Communist enemies abroad, we are dealing with people who are simply beyond jthe reach of reason ... j "President Nixon is a highly intelligent man. He is also a realist in the sense that he explained ex-plained during his speech that he had no illusions that personal per-sonal charm on the part of any American leader would change the course of history and influence in-fluence international decisions. t "Eventually President Nixon is going to take the last step and realize that all sensible and generous plans proposed to the Russians will in no way deflect them from their plans for our nation. Then, Mr. Nixon will be ready to lead the Free World into taking the steps to bring about the survival sur-vival of freedom and the existence exis-tence of the United States itself." it-self." Yes, America must choose between military superiority or ultimate surrender to the Communists. Com-munists. Shriver urged Democrats in fall. to aid The term new approaches to education seems almost to have become an overused term, but a program called, "The Community Com-munity School," is everything that the term implies. Great ideas usually seem to have unusually insignificant beginnings, begin-nings, and such was the case for this program. The incident which sparked the birth of the program was a rather ordinary happening, but one which was to become most significant in the history of educational development in America. The two pioneer thinkers involved in-volved were Mr. Charles Mott, a multi-millionaire inventor of key automotive component parts, and a junior high school physical education teacher. The teacher had been very much upset to see young children playing in the busy street late one afternoon, because the school grounds were locked up. The teacher happened to be playing tennis a day or two later with Mr. Mott and he asked him what would happen if General Motors were to shut down their production plants every day from 3:45 until8:00a.m. the next morning and completely for two-and-a-half months in the summer? sum-mer? Mr. Mott quickly realized what the educator was saying and was very much concerned about the waste of precious capitol investment and skilled personnel. Mr. Mott and the educator then organized a plan for promoting the idea of the community school. It was decided that the key man in the program would be the community com-munity school director. This individual would move into the school at 12:00 a.m. each day and operate community educational programs from 3:30 until 9:00 or 10:00 p.m. at night. It was envisioned that the school, as well as the community's com-munity's economic, physical plant and manpower resources would be cooperatively organized to operate the community com-munity school program. It was planned that schools and municipalities would buy adjoining pieces of property for recreational sites and share the costs of developing them. Plans also called for the school to become the community action center to meet the specific needs of that particular school's area. Perhaps an illustration of a typical school in Flint, Michigan, will better explain the program. In Flint, each neighborhood neigh-borhood school becomes a branch library of the city library system at 3:30 p.m. each day. The gym is used by boy scout so quiet, Pull out drawer Whirlpool Instead of constantly filling a dirty waste basket under the sink, then taking it to a trash can in the garage, and finally dragging the clattering cans out to the curb for pickup, we offer you the Trash Masher Compactor.

If there is a pool at the school, it becomes a public pool after school. It should be explained that all of the elementary schools have a small gym similar to those of LDS ward chapels. Other classes offered are home repairs, cooking, barbershop singing, first aid, gun safety, sewing, home decorating, estate planning, plan-ning, home budgeting, etc. There is also a community recreation room set aside in each school for neighborhood socials, town meetings, visiting lectures, art displays, etc. The possibilities are, as you can visualize, as numerous as the mind can conceive.
