Home Rule gives any governmental unit extraordinary powers. This feature is SB 84 combined with the general grant of power and rights of Amendment to the Optional Plan, which are both found in all 12 optional plans, means that IF ANY ONE OF THE 12 OPTIONAL CHARTERS ARE ADOPTED THE COUNTY CAN EASILY END UP WITH THE COMMUNITY COUNCIL FORM, seven of paragraph 6 leaves that Community Councils will have powers to adopt programs for their communities which are above the basic level. However, the facts are that any program RECOMMENDED BY a Community Council can be vetoed by the Council, and if passed by that council can be vetoed by the County Executive. Whereas our Legislature can only be vetoed by the Governor and our Congress can only be vetoed by the President, our Community Council can be vetoed by two bodies. There are numerous other bad features mentioned in the article, many of which are attributed to Pete Grundfossen. Not the least of these is his question: Should we continue to elect seven other independent officials (auditor, treasurer, clerk, assessor, surveyor, recorder and sheriff) or make the offices A PPOINTIVE?

Leaves are turning, children are studying, footballs are flying. And the the 28 th regular United Nations is meeting session of that world organization having begun on September 1 8. Two years ago, the U.N. bared its real nature when it welcomed Red China to membership. But as far as we are concerned, Red China belongs in the U.N.; the United States does not. The admission of Red China to the U.N. in fact merely added one more to the list of reasons why the United States should get out of the United Nations. We offer another a most interesting and revealing assessment of the United Nations, given in 1970 by former U.N. Secretary-GenerU Thant. Here is the complete text of an Associated Press dispatch carried by the Los Angeles Times on April 7, 1970: - al LENINS AIM LIKE UNS, THANT SAYS U Thant U.N. Secretary-Generpraised Vladimir I. Lenin, founder of al the Soviet Union, as a political leader whose ideals were reflected in the U.N. charter. Thant released Monday the text of a statement sent to a symposium on Lenin at Tampere, Finland, sponsored by the U.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Lenin was a man with a mind of great clarity and incisiveness, and his ideas have had a profound influence on the course of contemporary history , Thants statement said. (Lenins) ideals of peace and peaceful coexistence among states have won widespread international acceptance and they are in line with the aims of the U.N. City-Coun- ty so-call- ed . . following: The Home Rule section of SB 184; 2. The section of SB 184 that takes away from the legislature and from the people the right to repeal the charter for six years after adoption; 3. The ambiguous sections of SB284; 4. The section of all model laws giving a general grant of power to the new optional form of government, no matter which plan is adopted; 5. The weakness of community councils; of community boundaries every ten 6. The 1. charter'... When analyzing that statement, it is essential to recall the career of V.I. Lenin. Prior to his seizure of power in Russia, he promised to deliver the Russian people from Czarist tyranny and to provide peace, land and bread. Once in power, however, Lenin turned his promises into nightmares. He established his own secret police; he authorized kangaroo courts called Revolutionary Tribunals, he built wretched concentration camps; and he caused a bloody civil war. He became the archetype of the modern dicta- tor, while consolidating Communism?s international revolutionary apparatus. All this in the short space of six years! During this same period, the toll stemming from Lenins ideals added up to more than 12 million corpses. Over half of these victims died either from enforced starvation or from the dreaded Red Terror. Thants praise of Lenin, therefore, is indica- tive of both Thants character and that of the U.N. But what of the U.N. Charter itself? Those familiar with it know it to be a thinly-veileblueprint for a with centralized power over all member states. The U.N. Charter has given to the world organization the potential for doing to every nation what Lenin did to Russia. U Thant was certainly correct when he likened Lenins aims to those of the United Nations. He could have added a parallel between Lenins propaganda almost sixty years ago and the propaganda today. Lenin sold himself to the Russian people by promising peace, land and bread. In like manner, the United Nations is being sold to the unsuspecting as a protector from war and a guarantor of peace. But it is vitally important to know that to a Communist peace means the absence of opposition to Communism. Peace as promised by Lenin, or U Thant, or the United Nations can only be the peace of death, or the peace of submission. If the dream of a world without war or injustice has been used to gain your support for the United Nations, remember U Thants revealing statement. What Lenin has already brought to millions is precisely what the U.N. can also bring. The surest way to avoid such horror is to get the United States out of the United Nations.
