Kennedy, Secretary of the Treasury who began riding in Utah rodeos at age 10. works for Kennedy, who relaxation, was in Salt Lake City briefly before driving to Ogden to deliver an address at Weber State College laureate Friday night. bacca- Accompanied by Mrs. Kennedy, who grew up across the street from her husband in Randolph, Rich County, he arrived at Salt Lake International Airport with one that his disappointment Utah stay would end Sunday. Although there are slight signs in reduction of inflation pressures, he said, there is also a time lag in efforts taking place. It will be the latter part of the year before the consumer will see a reduction of prices." The secretary told newsmen who met him at tha airport that tight and scarce credit necessitates the restriction of the growih of credit, just as it is necessary not to reduce taxes. However, he said, this does not mean the time will come when individual consumers will have to be controlled. Let the consumer do what he wants to do. Were living in a free society. However, with our strong inflation, some are buying on the psychology that prices will get even higher. This psychology should be corrected. Kennedy said interest rates whole lung as is usually case in such operations. It was really a shock, I had no idea this would happen to me. I'd never tried to quit smoking, but now it was quit or else, he recalled. Despite the bad news, it was still a struggle to give up the habit. When people get lung cancer only about five per cent of them survive, but a Salt Lake man is making medical history by recovering from not one, but three lung cancer operations. His remarkable showing is credited to a new cancer detection method which caught the disease each time while it was still so tiny it couldn't even be found on chest But while Dell Brinton, G 6, is being written up in medical journals, its the kind of fame hed rather have missed and he blames it all on cigarettes. For nearly 50 years he smoked three packs a day and a pipe in between times, but figured that lung cancer always happened to the other guy. I felt good, did a lot of walking and wasnt short of breath. I went to see a doctor because Im a firm believer that after a guy gets to be 50 he should see a doctor once in Im a sports fan and I found it impossible to watch a game on TV for several hours and not have anything to do with my hands.

I didnt smoke em, I ate em, he said. Maybe it sounds kind of feminine, but I finally turned to tying rugs to keep my hands busy. It really was the thing that helped me to quit, Brinton said. s. a took His first operation place In March, 1966 and he bounded back well.

Ievoev Enforcement Attitudes, Aide Urges By JOSEPH LUNDSTROM Deseret News Staff Writer A review of public attitudes toward law enforcement was urged Friday by W. M.

R e cently, the Salt Lake County Sheriffs Department made so many arrests it was necessary to charter a bus to deliver the youths to the Detention Home. This act brought about enough criticism to understandably discourage the officers from- pursuing the problem, Dale said. This raises the questions: How much enforcement do we want? How much support can the police officer expect to receive? What are we willing and able to do with the hosts of people the officer will arrest if he does enforce the law? Dale asked. - He advised the committee that he was satisfied that police departments in our communities . are grossly understaffed, and yet, he Trim Bus Stops, City Lines Urges By ROBERT D. MULLINS Deseret News Staff Writer Salt Lake City Lines has proposed eliminating 13 loading stations on State and Main Streets and making several route changes in downtown Salt Lake City. C. E. Free, superintendent of transportation for the bus line, outlined the proposal to members of the Salt Lake City Traffic Advisory Council Friday. Loading zones to be eliminated would be two at 1st South and State, three at 2nd South and State, two at 3rd South and State and three at 4th South and State. Two would be eliminated at 3rd SJouth and Main and one at 2nd South and Main. It was noted that there are several loading zones on each comer for buses going opposite directions and turning comers. Free indicated the bus company would like to do more unloading of passengers on Main Street rather than State Street. He said surveys showed 95 per cent of the passengers alighting on State Street immediately head for Main, and most of those boarding buses on Stale came from Main Street. f The advisory council named a subcommittee to meet with Free at the bus garage Monday and study the proposals further. They will then make recommendations to the Salt Lake City Commission, which must make the decision on the changes. Members of the subcommit- tee are Ray D. Free, chairman of the advisory council; Capt. Don B. Pearson, Salt Lake Police Department; Stanley Darger and David C. Stephens. The Advisory Council also heard a report Friday by Alex E. Mansour Jr., chief traffic engineer for the State Department of Highways, on proposed changes on traffic control devices being considered by the National Committee on Uniform Standards. One proposal is to change to a system of colors and symbols on road signs, eliminating words wherever possible. The idea being, Mansour explained, that motorists on high speed highways cannot read the word signs fast enough. It was also noted that the color and symbol system could be made international in scope. he knew of no case reported to the police (regarding drugs) which has not been properly investigated. No bona fide drug abuse cases referred to the juvenile court are closed nonjudicial-ly- , he said. The court considers these cases to be very serious in their nature and deserving the time of the judicial process. ' the court hearing, Juvenile Court follow-u- p of drug abuse cases, like most other referrals to the court, do not receive adequate attention. The reason for this is simply that we do not have Beyond the staff nor treatment facilities that we should have, he added. Only one child in 1968 was committed to the State Industrial School whose problem was primarily that of drug abuse. Several children have been committed to the Utah State Hospital and others have been referred to private hospitals for treatment, Dale told the committee. He noted that the primary resource of the juvenile court Probation is was probation. the most promising of all the resources available to the Juvenile Court regardless of what grand instiutions might be available. Probation also is the most economic service that can be provided to an offender in society. Most of the first time offenders appearing before the court are being fined and ordered by the court to refrain from further similar ic The third operation was performed this week on the left lung once more. I paid a heck of a price for those years of smoking, Brinton said from his hospital bed. He thought for a moment about young people smoking and said, Its probably the worst habit they could pick up. Its comparable to narcotics. be acts. This type of disposition appears to be tragically inefhe said. The pity of fective, such dispositions being made by the court is that the court is not aware' of effective dispositions, but resources are simply denied the courts for meaningful disposition, Dale said. There appears to be some suggestion that we are poorly informed as to the needs of people involved in drug abuse. I do not believe this to be as as some might significant suppose. I am convinced that the techniques of treatment as they pertain to any emotional, ly or socially disturbed individual are not appreciably different in dealing with the drug abuser.

TUESDAY IN MURRAY A free glaucoma test for everyone 35 and older will be given Tuesday at Murray High School, 5300 S. State St., from p.m. 7-- 9 The test detects glaucoma, the second largest cause in the United States, and will be administered by physicians of the Utah Opthamological Society, Salt Lake County Medical Association and nurses from the County Health Department. The program is sponsored by the Murray Lions Club. of blindness The disease is most prevalent in those 35 and older, strikes about two per cent of those over 40, and is irreversible once it has started. Early detection is vital for the prevention of blindness. The Utah Society for the Prevention of Blindness lists five warning signs of the disease: frequent changes of glasses, loss of side vision, rainbow-colorerings around lights, blurred or foggy vision and the inability to adjust to darkness. d But glaucoma can sometimes strike without any of these signs, the society warns. They all help out.

My Brothers Place, 7200 W. 2400 South, was burned to the ground and damage was estimated by Sgt. Blaine Barnes, deputy sheriff, in excess of $8,000. Garth Yeaman, manager-an- a caretaker who lives at the scene, was in a back room counting the day's receipts about 2:30 a.m. when he said he smelled smoke and gasoline. He told the Deseret News that he heard "a noise like a plane breaking the sound barrier and the building shook. Barnes, however, said Yea-ma- n did not mention the possibility of an explosion to deputies. Yeaman reported that he heard a car dig gravel and leave the scene at high speed. He said he thought something was thrown from the car on the north side of the building that may have started the fire.
