Show The Paper That Dares To Take A Stand Septembers, 1977 The Utah Independent Page HERES WHAT YOU CAN IN SALT SOCIALISM LAKE COUNTY When government plans for the people, and not merely how it will perform its own functions. Socialism is the result. When County and City government officials advance-pla- n the boundaries of every future municipal incorporation and annexation within its boundaries, the Constitutional Sovereign, the people, has its rights to responsible preempted by Socialism. A person does not have to be a conscious, committed Socialist in order to practice Socialism, any more than Fabian Socialist John became a Keynes Maynard capitalist by making a fortune through speculations in the securities market. But if we cannot change the mind of or replace government officials who practice Socialism with persons who believe in and practice individualism and we responsible will all wake up some morning and find that we are actually ruled by Socialists.

I doubt that this is literally the case, but there is no question that snakes have a way of causing some birds to sit still on the ground while the snake strikes and kills. Apparently both fear and confusion on the bird's part are involved. This is the condition of people in Salt Lake County today. Out of 535,000 people in the county there are no more than a figurative handful who are aware of the legal initiation of the steps toward formation of Bonneville, or the cities plan.

The past five years melt away when 1 picture Jim as the tiny in- fant 1 held in the hospital. Yet he has grown so much since then. He is no longer the student who learns lifes necessities from me, but the teacher who gives me lessons on life's little beauties. He is no longer the infant who feels the world revolves around him, but the sen- sitive little boy, alert to the needs and hurts of others. on Jim is also a mini-expe- rt e He movement. the pro-lifneed to contact the understands legislators about both good and bad bills. He knows about rallies, speeches, pickets. He realizes there are people, including doctors, w ho don't want to help tiny babies, elderly grandparents and those whose bodies or minds dont work quite right. Because Jim sees the wrong in that, he welcomes op- portunities to cany his own pro- life sign: 1 love a babies; they're my kind of people! Jims sense of compassion and justice make me think weve done something right in these first five (and 912) years. But I cant help feeling regret, too. I can never reclaim the times I've had to postpone Jim's story or game because I had a pro-li- fe speech to prepare, a letter to write, a hotline call to take. And while I did these things for my family, so the threat to in- -school convenient babies wouldnt be extended to them, I doubt Jim 1 only rurally understands this. he will, one day hope I feel, too, that our relation- ship will never be quite the same again. When Jim walks out our door tomorrow, hell begin to depend upon, learn from and teach other adults... and. thus, gain a new perspective on the world. Hell be. in a way, taking the first step in the long and gradual process of leaving home. And though I realize that step is vital, it leaves me with the same slightly empty feeling 1 had after childbirth. (1 guess when we house a little one for so long, he feels like part of us; it hurts when he breaks away.) My husband gently teases me about this feeling, yet I'm sure every mother experiences it. Ill survive, as other mothers have, because I understand that Jim does not belong to me, but is on loan from God. It is my responsibility to care for him while he lives with me, both before and after birth, But it is also my responsibility to give him up. ..so that he can mature, grow and truly live, I only wish the woman who aborts because she couldn't bear" to give her baby up, understood the I inevitability of this letting-g- o. only- wish she knew that, while the giving-u- p always hurts a bit, it is bearable when its done out of love for the child, I shall think of her tomorrow as I watch Jim head off toward school, bringing his own special nocence, honesty and love to the rest of the world!
