Stake President of PTA, Mrs. Local Group Attend Emotional Health Confab HARRIET ELIASON A state-wide "Emotional Health Conference," sponsored by the Utah Congress of Parents and Teachers and funded by Sears-Roebuck Sears-Roebuck Foundation was attended by eight persons fronj Millard County including Mrs. John, Ilene Cooper, District 10 director. Attending from the West Millard 'area were Mrs. Gordon L. Chat-win, Chat-win, Hinckley; Mrs. G. Keith Rawllnson and Mcs. Eldon A. Ellason, Delta; and Mrs. Leo R. Burraston, Delta, West Millard PTA Council President. "There is no way to avoid social Issues, which have a direct influence influ-ence upon the emotional health of Individuals and the community," noted Mrs. Burraston. She feels that It takes the combined cooperation cooper-ation of parents, teachers and all church and social and civic organizations to most effectively combat social problems such as drug traffic, and Inadequate recreation rec-reation facilities. , At the recent conference, held in Provo, Mrs. Jennelle Moorhead, a national world-wide humanitarian humanitar-ian who has served in international inter-national capacities for both the Federated Women's Clubs of America and National PTA as well as many UN service cap- cities, suggested that we -must, nto leave any of our children and young people in "limbo" a state of neglect, oblivion, or confinement. con-finement. There Is no one cause and no one cure for children in "limbo," she explained. "But we all deal with children's emotional health in small crisis and small incidents in our daily lives, either effectively or detriment tally," she observed. "All the confusion of the world comes into our homes unbidden TV violence. It all becomes part of a child's memory and he doesn't see these things in the perspective of maturity," con mented Mrs. Moorhead, who believes be-lieves thatthiscan have a harmful harm-ful effect on a child's permanent fram of reference as he builds it during his life-time. Mrs. Lila B. Bjorklund, Stake President of the PTA listed several sev-eral goals for this state-wide program including: "To put love Into action using a constant process pro-cess of 'being human;' to learn special techniques of how to 'feel' for others and how to bring about change in ourselves as persons and in our, communities and to do this with warmth, understanding and appreciation of family and associates.'' Growth of our society and urbanization urban-ization are creating new problems pro-blems and new needs for services in a community according to Mrs. Burraston. "As adults we need to work on the critical issues which challenge us," she said. Too many of our youth are dropping drop-ping out of society becausethey reject the emphasis on material ism, she explained. We have a responsibility to help our young people in "their need to be im-portant im-portant now," she added.

DON (JEAN) SMITH Recorder Justowriter. Recorder into Reproducer Justowriter. The sets copy into columns ready This week marks the seventh week that DuWil Pub. Co. (William V. Wilson and Susan B. Dutson) has been publishing pub-lishing the Millard County Chronicle. It has been a very busy seven weeks, many days 15 to 20 hours long for us. But fc the most part it has been rewarding. We vcy much appreciate the kind words and votes of confidence received by so many peuple. We are trying hard to serve the community well find hope to provide improved service with each issue. The highlight, I think, was the installation of our new "Friden Justownters from Office Supply. Mr. John Johnson delivered them Monday, the 5th, and set them up for operation. The justowriters will reduce work and hopefully hope-fully aid us in improving copy. The first set of machines scheduled for us were dropped drop-ped while being unloaded from an airplane, but out of bad comes good in that the sec we finally received should be more serviceable for our needs. We are now producing an offset paper as 80 of the state's weeklies do. It is primarily a "Paste UP" method as opposed to "hot lead" and letter press. It is a space, age operation, with computers and limitless imagination opportunities. It is fun and challenging, but as we are novices in this type of procedure we have had our problems, and made mistakes. We collect, compile and paste up the paper. Mr. Joel Dunn and his staff at Tooele print and fold the paper for us. As they had one of the first offset operations in Utah they are very knowledgeable and have given us unmeasrable assistance and advice to aid us toward our goal of excellence.

Farmers Mlllard County residents are well aware that U. S. Japanese trade is extensive, Phil Eliason, Chairman of the Millard County , Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee, commented recently. "Almost everyone recb'gnlzes that Americans are important customers for Japanese goods. I wonder how many of us realize ihat the Japanese are major cus-:omers cus-:omers for American goods, especially es-pecially for Amerlcanfarm commodities. com-modities. "In fact, Japan imports more U. S. agricultural products than any other county In the world a record $1.1 billion worth-dur-lng the 1970 fiscal year,'' Mr. Eliason said. He pointed out that feed grains and wheafi'are important farm crops in Millard' County and that exports of - these farm products to Japan haV gone up dramatically dramatic-ally in recenfcyears. More than six million tons of feed grains wee shipped to Japan last fiscal year just about one-third of U.'$. feed grain exports. ex-ports. Soybean exports to Japan has a 251 million dollar value, and wheat exports $134 million. Japan is our best cotton customer, taking tak-ing one-fourth of Its cotton from the U. S. ; also, Japan bought $50 million worth of tobacco from the U. S. during the last fiscal year. The ASC Committee Chairman reported that Secretary of Agriculture Agri-culture Clifford M. Hardin recently re-cently took note of the American-Japanese American-Japanese trade story, calling it unprededented. Secretary Hardin also said: "The Japanese economy has paralleled that nation's growtrln . SUE DUTSON pasting up pages for week's edition. Warren Peterson Named Commended Student Aietter of Commendation honoring hon-oring students for high performance perfor-mance on the 1970 National Merit Mer-it Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT) his been awarded to one student' af Delta High School Principal Jack Fowles has announced. an-nounced. The nanied Commended student stud-ent Is Warren Peterson. He is among 35,000 students-in students-in the United States who scored scor-ed in the upper 2 per cent of those who are expected to graduate grad-uate from high school in 1971. The Commended students rank just below the. 14,750 Semlfin-alists Semlfin-alists 'announced,, in September by the. National Merit Scholarship Scholar-ship Corporation (NMSC). Edward C. Smith, president of NMSC, said: "Although Commended Com-mended students advance no further fur-ther In the Merit Scholarship competition, their high performance perfor-mance on the NMSQT gives promise pro-mise of continued success in college. t" The Commended students should be encouraged to pursue their education ed-ucation since their intellectual talent tal-ent represents an Important and much needed natural resource. Both thesQ gtudents and our nit tlon will benefit from their continuing con-tinuing educational development.' trade. In the years between 1960 and 1965, Japanese shipments in world trade more than doubled. By 1969, they had almost doubled again, reaching $16 billion. Shipments Ship-ments to the United States increased in-creased in those nine years by more than four times to $4.9 billion. . "The Japanese householder's disposable income has more than tripled since 1960. His demand for meat, milk, and eggs a good 'horseback' measure of consumer prosperity has increased in-creased by more than four times in 15 years. , "He is diversifying his eating habits and his income goes up. For example, per person consumption con-sumption of wheat flour in this traditionally rice-eating society has increased by 30 percent in a decade and a half. "Ten years ago, Japan's agricultural agri-cultural imports from the U. S. were $440 million, in the fiscal . year just past, they were more than twice as great nearly $1.1 billion. "But the agricultural exports are only one aspect of a beneficial bene-ficial trading relationship that can be summarized very simply: In terms of total exports, the U. S. is Japan's best customer, and Japan Is the United States' best off-shore customer. "As you might expect, two-thirds two-thirds of U. S. shipments to Japan last year were raw materials, mineral fuels, and foodstuffs, while 90 percent of Japan's shipments ship-ments to the U. S. were manufactured manu-factured goods. "This is the basis of beneficial world trade an exchange of goods based primarily on production produc-tion efficiency. The Commended students' names are reported to certain seholarship-granting agencies and to the colleges they named as their first and second choices when they took the NMSQT in Feb. 1970. The reports include home addresses, test scores, and anticipated an-ticipated college major and career ca-reer intentions of the Commended students. NMSC encourages these students to make every effort to contlnuetheir education. SERVICEMEN Pvt. Dennis P. Cahoon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Cahoon, has been transf ered to Ft.

Winston Churchill. "It is .this principle that led Japan to look to efficient producers pro-ducers on the broad farmlands for the feed grains needed to satisfy its people's rising demand for livestock products. "As a result, Imported feed grains have triggered a rapid expansion of Japanese livestock production. This has brought Japanese consumers more meat and poultry at better prices; it has opened opportunities for Japanese Ja-panese farmers for new and profitable pro-fitable livestock enterprises; it has meant an important and expanding ex-panding feed grain marked for world agriculture. "Almost the whole range of U. S. farm commodities finds Japan a leading customer. "Japan wants, needs, and can afford these products, and the U. S. can supply them in any system of international trade in which price, quality, and availability avail-ability are the primary factors. "In a world of competition, export ex-port expansion means salesmanship salesman-ship and service, as well as prices, quality and availability. Tho nrnriiirpr.Q finrt marlrpter.c nf the major U. S. agricultural products pro-ducts have understood this, and they support some 68 private trade organizations formed to develop markets overseas in cooperation co-operation with the Department of Agriculture. This is, of course, a mutual effort with many strong Japanese organizations bringing to it their special knowledge, know-ledge, their special abalttles." In closing, Agriculture Secretary Secre-tary Hardin gave special recognition recogni-tion to the trade organizations for. three commodities which last year accounted for two-thirds of the 'total U. S. agricultural es-ports es-ports to Japan feed grains, soybeans, and wheat. ,'The job of the newspaper is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. F. P. Dunne (Mr. Dooley) |
