Show THE BOX ELDER JOURNAL, Brigham City, Utah Thursday, November 23, 1967 Did you know that Brigham City Editor: The first American Thanksgiving day svas celebrated by the Plymouth colonists on Dec. 13, 1621. Governor William Bradford decreed that this day be set aside as a day of feasting and prayer to show the gratitude of the colonists for a bounteous harvest. Three days were spent in singing, prayer and feasting. Later, on Nov. 26, 1789, George Washington issued a general proclamation for a day of thanks. Still later, President Lincoln issued a proclamation setting aside the last Thursday of November in that ear As a day of thanksgiving and praise to our leneficent Father." During this Thanksgiving season, let us not forget to be especially thankful for our personal freedom and for the privilege of living in this great land of America. Our freedom is a right, guaranteed by the constitution. If this right is to be preserved, we must protect it against all of our enemies, both outside of our country and within. The greatest threat to our American way of life is communism. The Communists are doing everything they can do to force their "God-les- s philosophy and devilish way of h fe on the people of America. In order to expose the communist plot, we should inform ourselves about what is happening in our country, and then we should inform others. After that, we should take the necessary political and legal action to rid ourselves of this menace. Lastly, we should try to get back to a sensible, realistic way of life. May we always have the priviledge of being able to say, "One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all, and be able to sing, about "The land of the free, and the home of the open-minde- n Death Cause Accurate? Editor: concerning the section of your newspaper termed, 'obituaries'. Where those deaths which are not considered 'newsy' are entered. Upon most of these are attached the comments. "Incident due to age," or "natural causes. The first comment can easily be explained, although still very general. Yet, the latter motivates much cpiestion. Where has such a comment originated,1' Is there a set list of reasons to which this generalization is attached? When a person reaches a certain age is this comment automatically attached? (Since younger persons have not this comment.) To those who have skimmed through this section of the paper and noted that a friena or acquaintance has died, and had this comment attached, would you give word? I would mention setting aside all religious convictions and look at this sensibly. Know'ing in part the vast progress of medicine today and say "incident due to age, and "natural causes are highly improbable comments in the opinion of many, including mine.

Then he added, "As to pay, sir, I beg leave to assure Congress that as no money consideration could have tempted me to accept this arduous task, at the expense of my domestic ease and happiness, I do not wish to make any profit from it. I will keep an exact account of my expenses if these are discharged, that is all I desire." Washingtons account was 75 cents which he handed in with his report.

Its a pity that any spokesman for the proponents of fluoridation, in order to defend their position, always digress into personal vindictive. In cities where this debate goes on, doctors seem to hae no recourse but to use the same old trite and well-worhate mongers, epithets such as: "food-faddisconvicted quacks, misinformed small groups, etc. In fact, the Journal of the A.M.A., vol. 178, p 92"', Dec. 2, 1961, told physicians that those who oppose fluoridation are "misinformed, stupid, or dishonest Lets take a look at these emotional labels. "Food-faddists- : anyone, who, because of their dietary practices finds himself free of disease and dental carries, has no medical bills. These people threaten the economic welfare of the medical community If their practices are allowed to spread to any degree. They can usually be indentified from normal" people by the fact that they use nutritious foods, such as raw milk, wheat germ, yogurt, and pure unadulterated, unrefined, fresh foods. They also use herbs and demand pure drinking water. "Normal people use refined cereals and sugars, soda pop, french fries, coffee, aspirin and prescription drugs and pay thousands every year for medical bills. They are also usually "normally constipated, headachy, alergic, arthritic, and have "normal heart and blood vessel diseases. According to statistics, 60 percent of our population have registered, cronic illnesses. Out of 1,000 apparently well persons, the University of Pennsylvania found that only 13 percent were free of defects. s probably constitute about 13 percent of the people, althougn their zealous testimony is causing it to be a fast growing movement, much to the concern of the medical monopoly. did it ever occur to the name-caller- s that people who fight fluoridation have no economic interest, and are usually motivated by love of their fellowman, neighbors, children and themselves to protect the free agency of the community, and our sacred bodies against drugs in our drinking water? Because most people would prefer "Not to get Involved, only a few' have the intestinal fortitude necessary to stand up for their community, and of course they, standing practically alone, can so easily be attacked by vested and powerful interests, while others less courageous look on. to. ignore the How easy it is for the name-caller- s research that proves them wrong and resort to vindictive.

Sincerely Perc Kim Petersen Lorenzo Demars 233 South Third East, Logan, Utah Food-faddist- d Proud to Serve News-Journa- t, is a brave. Gty Thanksgiving is an appropriate time to express gratitude for the 51,500 which was donated voluntarily to the Box Elder Mental Health fund campaign by the residents of this county. Even though the amount is less than was anticipated, we feel the efforts were well rewarded through educational materials which were distributed and in the manner in which the community is responding, becoming more aware that mental health is one of the most pressing problems in the nation. We would like to take this opportunity to invite schools, civic organizations and church groups to avail themselves of education material, including pamphlets and films, and speakers on mental health. We also remind local residents that Heber Sharp, Jr., of the Northern Utah Mental Health clinic is available everv Thursdav in the county courthouse in Brigham Cit. His services are free, made possible mainly through volunteer efforts, augmented by state and federal grants. Our ultimate aim is to have a local mental health clinic which acts as a preventative as well as rehabilitation agency whenever its services are needed. Thanks to the following campaign workers who did so much to make our drive a success this year: Mrs. John Baxter, Mrs. Dorothy Burnett. Mrs. Frances Cracas, Mrs. John Carbough, Mrs. Robert Pett, Mrs. Lionel Lav ton, Mrs. Max Morgan. Mrs. Richard Chenev, Mrs. Vincent De Nunzio, Mrs. A1 Cazier, Mrs. Charles Hickox, Mrs. Jack Bean, Mrs. Knowlton Brown, Mrs. John Ensign, Mrs. Arnold Thompson, Mrs. John Duckworth, Mrs. Clayton Longhurst, Mrs. Wvne Lim, Mrs. Richard Dunn, Mrs. Robert Burkholder, and Mrs. George Tichenor, all of Brigham City: Mrs. Earl Graser, Willard; Mrs. Robert Foster.

Sincerely, Nick Topik, Chairman, fund raising drive, Box Elder Mental Health association void of juvenile delinquency? Did you know that in one of its information sheets the local Chamber of Commerce lists the city's 592,000 budget appropriation for re' creation as one of the reasons why Bri void of juvenile delinquency? I do not think that Brigham City, or any other city of comparable size, is in a position to justify such a fantastic statement on the part of its local chamber of commerce. There is no factual basis for such a statement as I was able to establish in discussions with local officials. While we freely concede that every chamber of commerce is entitled to a goodly amount of what is called "puffing in its advertising matter, no chamber of commerce should be permitted to make a statement of fact which lacks a factual basis. We do not expect the local chamber of commerce to be versed in the advertising finesse and specialized technique customary on New Yorks Madison Avenue. What we should expect however is a posture of willingness to make needed corrections in its "fact sheets" whenever facts can be proven not to be facts. If a chamber of commerce in its publications makes obvious misstatements of facts, such as in stating that "Brigham City is void of juvenile delinguency, my right to voice constructive dissent cannot and should not be denied to me. Brigham City, most of us will agree, is a very fine residential community, and while this picture has become a bit marred by the advent of fluoridation, to state that the city is "void of juvenile delinquency is almost tantamount to assigning to it the image of that ideal perfection symbolized by Sir Thomas Mores "Utopia or in that mystic Shangri-lof James Hiltons "Lost Horizon. very sincerely yours, Adolph Kaltwasser, 350 Holiday Drive Be Thankful for Freedom I Drive Chief Says Thanks Editor, Letters to the Editor...
