Boys Attend Kansas City Convention s. tc. .:.-:r- rnmrn Mark Petersen Paul Morris Mark Petersen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Petersen of Hinckley, and Paul Morris, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lamell G. Morris of Delta, left Monday, October 9, from Salt Lake City to attend the National F.F.A. Convention to be held Oct. 10, 11, 12 in Kansas City, Missouri. They will be joined by approximately approxi-mately 70 other boys from 45 FFA chapters throughout the state for travel to this 40th convention. Upon Up-on arrival at the convention they will mingle with nearly 10,000 other Future Farmers from all over our nation for the three days of activities. Every session will be packed with important and exciting events, including the American Farmer Ceremony; presentation of the Honorary Farmer Degrees and .Distinguished .Dis-tinguished Service Awards to non-members non-members who hpve given service to the organization; business sessions; ses-sions; recognition of outstanding chapters and individual members who excel in the various areas of the FFA; thanking donors to the FFA foundation; election of Nation al officers; and of course, naming of the Star Farmer of America. They will have plenty to see and do while there. The National livestock, live-stock, meats and poultry contests will be held; also the national public speaking contest will be conducted. Several educational and interesting tours within the area are planned as well as a trip to the American Royal Livestock and Horse Show. There will be many exhibits from the state associations, at which qualified personnel will be on hand to answer questions. A special attraction, "Exploring your career in Agriculture," will feature present day agricultural opportunities. Other exhibits will include the National Magazine, Official Calen-day, Calen-day, Supply Service, and the International In-ternational Exchange Program. Everything considered, this should prove to be a very exciting and educational experience for these Delta boys. Mr. Claud Parkinson ensin tL 71 ew$ By Thurman Sensing Executive Vice President Southern States Industrial Council LAW VS. IRRESPONSIBLES Addressing the International Association As-sociation of Police Chiefs in Sept., President Johnson spoke out concerning con-cerning the riots that the nation has suffered this summer. "Much can explain," he said, "but nothing can justify the riots of 1967." He pointed out that "they damage the respect and the accommodation among men on which civilized society so-ciety ultimately depends and without with-out which there can be no progress toward social justice." The public can be thankful that Mr. Johnson at last had firm words for the rioters, but Americans can not ignore the fact that the condemnation con-demnation comes very late. Moreover, More-over, Mr. Johnson's words would be more meaningful if the Justice Department De-partment and other agencies of the federal government had been advised ad-vised to take the sameline. It happens, however, that the Justice Department, under Atty. Gen. Ramsey Clark, has taken a very soft line toward the rioters and others who preach strife or engage in civil disobedience. When Stokely Carmichael was raising the roof earlier this summer, triggering violence vio-lence around the country, Mr. Clark and his associates apparently could n't find a law to cover his un- American Am-erican activities. When the South was going thru some turmoil a decide ago, the Justice Department always seemed able to find some obscure post-Civil post-Civil War statute that effectively shut up people the Department didn't favor. Now that the Black Power movement is busy burning cities and causing riots, the Justice Department is strangely helpless. Many Americans may conclude that Mr. Johnson's speech to the police chiefs is only the smallest of beginnings. What is needed Is for the President to set about creating a wholly new atmosphere regarding law and law enforcement. The police need a good word not once every four years but on a continuing continu-ing basis. The White House needs to let it be known that no group of Americans, no minority in our country, is .ahove the law or exempt ex-empt from its provisions. The riots in Newark and Detroit for example, resulted in losses totaling to-taling many mil. ions of dollars. The rioters rchieved as much destruction des-truction as an enemy of the U.S. might have achieved with aerial bombardment. Blocks of stores and home were gutted. Millions of dollars dol-lars in salaries and profits went up iin smoke. Therefore, it is the duty of the President to make it crystal clear that those who burn and loot are enemies of the American people The President of the United States also owes it to the people to exert leadership in upholding law and order. This means, for example, that the President should not hesitate hesi-tate to challenge those organizations organiza-tions which foster ttrife and disorder dis-order and give encouragement to civil disobedience. This kind of leadership has to be exercised, not only with respect to the wild Black Power groups that masquerade as respectable -- even religious -- organizations. or-ganizations. One such organization is the National Na-tional Council of Churches, which at its recent meeting in Atlanta gave its endorsement to the marches march-es in Milwaukee that have plunged that great middle Western city into strife and disrupted its community and business life. It is profoundly shocking that the National Council of Churches should lend its weight to the agitators agi-tators who have spattered Milwau kee with violence. The NCC's endorsement en-dorsement of the Millwaukee street demonstrations and of their leader, the Rev. James E. Gioppi, is one of the most reckless actions that organization or-ganization has ever undertaken. Mayor Henry W. Maier of Millwaukee, Millwau-kee, a liberal, has denounced Father Fath-er Groppi in these terms: "Groppi is irresponsible. He is a man of violence, vio-lence, not a man of peace. Groppi's kind of stage-managed events are doing long-term damage to the city." Mayor Maier's denunciation should shou-ld be extended to the national sup porters of Rev. Groppi, specifically the NCC. President Johnson, too, owes it to the law-abiding people of this nation to denounce not only the Father Groppis and Rap Browns but the NCC and other organizations organiza-tions that lend their influence to guerrilla warfare in the streets of America. Unless the irresponsibles are called call-ed to account by the President and alii the leaders of the nation, the anarchists will step up their activity activ-ity and truly try to tear America apart during 19GS.

Mrs. Ora Gardner and Family SHOPPERS WISE ECONOMIZE THEY SHOP WITH THOSE WHO ADVERTISE Rabbits Defeat Emery in Total Yards Rushing Wednesday, October 4, Emery beat Delta on Emery's field with a score of 7-6. The Rabbits this year don't seem to do as well as their ability suggests sug-gests against the other teams they play, as was the case with Emery. Delta almost doubled Emery's yardage, but the Rabbits as a team lost the game. As it would seem, the Emery team was just a little better than the Rabbits were that day. Delta just needed a little more effort and they would and could have won that game. Thus far Delta has lost two and tied one. In the rest of the games, the Rabbits have been victorious Aonther game, another Day, and another STORY is what will happen hap-pen Friday the 13, when the Millard Mill-ard Eagles will come to Delta to match wit and strength with the Delta Rabbits.
