Page 3 Hope They Don't Have To OlnKu(on) pgJDTIffiairO E5H Isn't (guying Two farmers from far off India took whirlwind tour of Box Elder County Sunday and Monday, hoping to view farming practices which might be adaptable to their own country. The two, Chhinaps Singh, 38, and Velalyudham, 30, are visiting the U. S. through an exchange program which sends Indian farmers here to view farming methods and American farmers to India. Bothwell farmer and rancher, Del-orStokes, played host to the international visitors during their brief stay in the county. Singh, who also has a post graduate degree in town and city planning, said the pair are interested in viewing "anything connected with farming." Irrigation systems hold a particular fascination since much of India is irrigated. Besides farming, Velalyud- a two-da- y, far r3i k ( Ail f is ham also manages a m - - natural state.

As an example, he cited an observation about the roles of different members of a U. S. family. "His parents," he said to Stokes, "live separate and nearby, but this wouldn't happen in my country." Stokes said Singh's reaction when he learned that his parents live in a different home a short distance away was, "My, don't they get lonesome living alone?" In India, Singh said, most older people live in places that are "very convenient" to the home of their children, and "never alone." Most people over 70 "hand over their affairs to their children," he added. They probably wouldn't have their own kitchen, but would be fed by other family members. Having lived with a couple of Mormon families during his visit, Singh said he was "very impressed" with their "abstinence of cola and to- bacco." But, Singh says, his American hosts also learn a lot about India during their visits. One continual "surprise", especially to young people, is the Indian custom of "arranged marriages." "Young people find it extremely difficult to grasp," he added, "But it works." Singh, who speaks fluent English -one of the requirements to qualify for the exchange program, - also speaks freely about government in his country. He speaks approvingly of the ousting of Indira Ghandi following her clamp-dow- n on the country. "The new party came into power, basically, to preserve a democratic form of government," he noted. As for the U. S., he admits that during his visit he has sometimes been envious of the country's abundance and its obvious wastefulness. Turning to foreign policy, he suggested that the U. S. should put more emphasis on assisting young demo- cracies. Homecoming Trajillo Participates In Tost ticipated in exercise "Oper-tioMain Test" at Ft. Story, Va.

Fraser said pornography available in the immediate area is a "negligible situation." But, the committee would like to see that it stays that way. The group recently requested that Tremonton City determine whether it has an ordinance. If not, "we would like to have one passed," Fraser, said. Efforts will apparently be made to see a similar ordinance passed in Garland where Glen Manning is a member of the committee. Fraser said one reason such an ordinance is needed is to keep big city smut peddlers out of rural communities.

(See related story.) borderSingh said parts of India, ing the Himalayas on the north, - have a climate similar to Utah. The biggest difference between farming in the two countries, he explained, is the immensity of American farms and the high degree of mechanization. Such farm operations aren't adaptable to India, he said. Much of the land ownership in India is restricted by the government. Singh said, "You can't own more than, say, 30 acres of land per individual." The two are among six, - including one woman, who are in the U. S. for about a month to study various farming methods. They have visited farm operations in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Colorado, and Utah. They head for Los Angeles on their next stop. Singh has also been impressed by U. S. land conservation measures. In Pennsylvania he viewed strip mining operations for coal and noted the strict conservation measures enforced by. the government to return the land to a theaters. bookstores and ordinHe said an ance would help safeguard the city in the event "these guys" decide to move their operations into rural communities without "money to fight." Fraser said support for the ordinances is "about the limit" of the committee's activity now. The druggist said there isn't, to his knowledge, any pornography in the community now, "other than what's being hauled in by the mails." Organized crime is behind smut peddling, Fraser said. "We'd like to think our community is small enough that it isn't worth their effort.... But the committee wants to be prepared just in case." The local committee was organized as an offshoot of a group in Ogden which has been fighting an adult book store there for months.
