Few issues in polling history have received such overwhelming support by the American public. In the latest survey, 85 percent of those surveyed favor having the federal government set up a modern youth projects version of the CCC camps of the 1930s, but w ith efforts aimed at urban problems as well. Some manpower experts maintain that in setting Jimmy Carter up such a program, President-elec- t would considerably reduce the unemployment rate in a top priority of the incoming this country administration. Long Time Problem The problem of unemployed youth is one that has plagued the U.S. for many years. The unemployment rate for youths 16 to 19 years old is currently running close to 20 percent and almost 40 percent for black Willard Wirtz, former Secretary of Labor and a manpower expert, expects that even if the ovi -- all unemployment rate drops considerably, the will still remain high. rate for teen-ageMany youth experts have labeled the estimated 2 million young people out of school and out of work a prime cause of crime and a great waste of the nations manpower. Proponents of youth training projects say that if the idea is adopted on a widespread scale it could effectively reduce crime and violence in our society. Others feel that the program could meet head-o- n some of the social ills in society and satisfy the desire of youth today to contribute to a better society. The concept of youth training centers has consistently had great appeal for the U.S. public, as determined by national surveys over the lat four decades. During the 1930s, upw ards of 2 million men were at one time members of the Civilian Conservation Corps or its predecessor, the Emergency Conservation Work Agency. Gallup Poll records show that no New Deal measure was so consistently popular with the public as the CCC camps. Overwhelming Support In July 1936 after the camps had been in 83 percent of oersons in a operation for three years national survey were in favor of continuing the CCC. In April 1938 another Gallup Poll recorded nearly 8 in 10 in favor of establishing die camps on a permanent basis. Heres the question asked in the latest survey : It is proposed that the federal government set up such as the CCC camps of the 1930s youth camps for young men who want to learn a trade and earn a little money by outdoor work. Do you think this is a good idea or a poor idea? On few issues has there been such uniformity of opinion, with overwhelming support found regardless of sex. race, educational attainment, political affiliation or labor union membership. The proposal has support although Democrats are somewhat more in favor. Of special interest are the views of young persons particularly those young persons (18-2- years) who are the heads of families or chief wage earners and who are unemployed. Nine in 10 in this group favor the idea of training projects. teen-ager- 5 - " - Associated Press Wirepnoto scrawny Christmas tree in the hands of an old man as he walks d his dog through the streets of Beirut seems a timely A Dreary Lebanon Christmas Looms By Eddie Adams banking and commercial center of the Lebanese capitol, was badly damaged but still standing. Around him, buildings had been demolished or stripped bare by looters. The death toll has been estimated at more than 37,000 and the number of wounded perhaps double that. This is a country smaller than Connecticut with a population of about three million. In the former Christian village of Damour, 12 miles south of Beirut, Palestinians from the demolished camp of Tel Zaatar in the heart of Beirut, look forward to even bleaker days ahead. The Christians wanted them neutralized as a military force and the status of the heavily armed refugee camps eliminated.

Todays youngsters have been robbed of several years schooling. Basic skills such as penmanship and spelling hsve not been stressed. Many of our youngsters have the ability to learn and actually want to learn, but evidently they have not been taught. "With the exception of discipline and loyalty to their unit, there are no educational values to be gamed from membership. Yet the members such blanket approval.
