And has this preoccupation seriously weakened the ability of the West to make the most of its strength and therefore has it unwittingly served the inCommunist terests and purposes of our enemies? to the A number of writers have come somber conclusion that the answer to these questions must be Yes. Among them is Walter Lippmann. In one of his recent columns he thoughtfully examines the Western situation and finds it unnecessarily bad. AS HE OBSERVES, IN EFFECT, the high hopes that were felt last summer concerning substantial improvement in Western unity and a spurring of Western economies have not been realized. Example after example of this could be cited. President DeGaulles apparently unflinching opposition to U.S. control of the major nuclear weapons threatens the very existence of without France, NATO as an effective element which is at the strategic heart of Europe, NATO would be a frail weapon indeed. On the economic side, development and expansion of the common market has run into d some obstacles, as the opposition to It within Britain and the Commonwealth indicates. And here at home, Mr. Lippmann feels, "fiscal leadership has become mangled in a conflict between Congress and the President. THE RESULT, AS HE SEES IT, is that First things are put aside; secondary and pretty things dominate the governments of the West . . . And this is happening at a time ever more when the world picture becomes chaotic, with trouble brewing and boiling all the way from Berlin to Africa, Asia, Latin America. Mr. Lippmanns point is that the West holds - the best cards in this fateful power game but plays them badly. We could, and should, he is be proceeding impressively towards convinced, a great and beneficent political and economic unity . . . "This would involve not only the develop-meof the common market, but the creation of economic and political associations of vari-oukinds, with, of course, full U.S. participation. If this were done, he goes on, our power and influence would be immensely increased -"Growing unity and rising afluence in the West would compare brilliantly with the deep conflict between China and Russia, with the failure of Communist agriculture, and with the Chinese economic disaster. IT IS ALSO HIS POSITION that here at home we have been paying far too much attention to "fringe measures" of a controversial nature - farm policy, urban renewal, medicare and so on, at the expense of the really crucial issues such as defense, foreign policy and finance. Not everyone, of course, will agree with Mr. Lippmanns analysis many will feel he minimizes the importance of domestic matters. But it represents a point of view and an extremely important one, that must be carefully considered in Western efforts to frame and pursue the policies, the give and take that is necessary to the common good, that must precede unity and a true mobilization and application . TO . . LETTER Legislators Need Money SOME OF THE DANGERS INVOLVED in leaving the pay and allowance scale at a very low level were indicated by one Legislator as: (1) danger of an "old man's Legislature" with young men unable to afford the time and funds necessary to serve (2) danger of a "rich mans Legislature where only those with substantial financial means could afford to serve, and (3) danger of a "subsidized Legislature" n where members accept financial aid from special interest groups to cover their expenses. THE MEASURE IS NOT PARTISAN, hav-in- g as its sponsors the Senate Minority and Majority leaders. It has been backed by both political parties as a realistic step toward fair reimbursement of Legislators. The adoption of Amendment No. 3 will give a modest, but adequate salary and expense allowance to your elected officials on Capitol Hill. It will mean n oman who seeks political office will be barred from candidacy because of his inability to pay a portion of his expenses from his own pocket. Constitutional Amendment No. 3 on the Nov. 6 ballot will allow an increase in pay and allowance for members of the Utah Legislature. The voters will be asked to consider an annual salary not to exceed $1,200 per year and an expense allownce of $10 day for expenses while the Legislators are actually in session. PROPONENTS OF THIS MEASURE point out that Utah Legislators are among the lowest paid in the nation and that service in the Legislature is a personal expense over and above the current allowances of $500 per year and $5 per day while in session. They say the increase is still a modest amount for the time and service rendered, but should cover actual expenses of the Legislators. These same proponents opposed a greater increase in allowance, saying the salary and expenses offered should not be an inducement for anyone to run for office. By the same token, the boosters of the measure said no person should be called on to contribute larger amounts of his time, as demanded by the Legislature, and still incur personal expense for the session. cer-taf- Amendment Twos Importance Stressed Tooele To Have Addition At Post Office nt d -- ' - - the Wests enormous strength. In one part of his column Mr. Lippmann states that our prosperity has made us too complacent, has taken away much of the compulsion to do better still, and to make the strong efforts which that would require.

THE QUESTION OF who pays for our roads and how road monies are spe nt has brought many questions concerning Amendment Two, according to J. Holman Waters, chairman of the Better Roads Association for Utah. Mr. Waters points out that roads are supported entirely or "privilege" through "user taxes and fees, with only the users of our roads asked to help pay the bill. Much of this fund comes from gasoline and fuel taxes, he said, with several million dollars also raised through registration and license fees. These are the only funds available for highway building and maintenance and are collected only from users of our streets and roads, according to Mr. Waters. Cities and counties receive the first $2 million from the vehicle registration fees, then get s of the remaining amount. fees Registration amounted to almost $7 million in 1961, according to Mr. Waters.

Mrs. Anne Roach and family breaking habits. One Midwest editor, prevented by archaic restrictions from publicizing the names of teen - age made this hoodlums, recently When a youngeditorial plea, ster is capable of murder, shooting during a burglary, beating someone to death vith a chain or hammer, r2pe, kidnaping and other crimes which merit the electric cha!r or life imprisonment, we are no longer talking about his first mistake or about a child whose reputation can be destroyed. THESE YOUNGSTERS are no longer the sweet innocent things you bounce on your knee. In most cases, theyd cut your throat for suggesting mercy -we're talking These children are deadly criminals; about with a gun or a switchblade at their hip, theyre nine feet tall. Youthful criminality is more than a childhood disease. It is a chronic and infectious plague. It does not dry up when neglected; nor is it less violent when misnamed. By any other name, it is still vicious, unadulterated crime. Thugs, Teen-Ag- e Beastly Punks Dear Editor: thugs are Marauding teen-agdegrading many American communities with brutal sidewalk muggings and assaults on defenseless and elderly citizens. These young hoodlums lurk along the streets as preying vultures. They ambush and rob then and hapless individuals flee, leaving their victims, if not dead, badly battered and bleeding. MERCIFUL RESTRALNT is unknown to these beastly punks. To them it signifies the trait, a universal taboo "chicken" among their ilk. In fact, many s of the fatal beatings and occur after the victim turns over his valuables. The crimes themselves are disturbing enough, but even more horrifying are the sadistic glee in which some are committed and the justifiable air assumed by the perpetrators when caugnt. example, one tough member of a gang, charged with attacking and robbing an 80 year old man, snarled, "Old men who walk on the streets at night deserve to be robbed. THIS SICKENING crime fad is becoming It commonplace. is a stigma on our society, and it is a heavy yoke on the overwhelming majority of American Unyouth who are fortunately, this problem is but one factor in the over-al- l youthful criminality picture. Last year, arrests of persons under 18 years of age rose four per cent higher than 1960. As a group, persons under 18 represented 43 per cent of all arrests for the more serious crimes of murder, forcible rape, robbery, e - stab-bing- aggravated assaults, burglary, larceny and auto theft. MOST POLICE agencies are meeting violent juvenile crime on. head Some departments have initiated decoy" squads to patrol on foot in high crime incidence areas. The results have been gratifying. But, there is a limit to what undermanned and overburdened police agencies comcan do. The problem mences and extends far beyond detection and apprehension. Quite obviously, scholarly theories and misguided sentiment are not getting the job done. The surging juvenile crime rate continues. RULES OF society and constituted authority are held in callous contempt by teen age criminals. Law and order are defied. Any situation or proposal which remotely suggests acceptable standards of behavior is scornd. To this hardened core of miscreants, unwarranted uiiu unrealistic punishment are ail but public endorsements. Most difficulty with youthful offenders stems from the home where a sound sense of values is diminishing. PareVs need to stress discipline, guidance and morality, and to play down indulgence, pleasure, and money. PROTECTIVE coddling by -- J. Edgar Hoover, birectm, FBI James A.
