His syndi-cated column appears quite fre-quently in the Salt Lake Tri-bune, usually in the Sunday morning issues. Last Sunday he was commen-ting on the intellertual frailities and foibles of the young mili-tant groups, especially those who have set themselves up as "writers" of both modern prose and poetry. This time he chose to title his column, "Writin' don't mean much when it ain't readable." Dr. Rafferty went on to say, that since many of the youth-ful dissidents are school drop-outs, anyway, they couldn't care less about sentence con-struction, paragraphing, punc-tuation and other bothersome rules of the writing art. Hence, what they produce is barely readable and the authors have to resort to "four letter words" in order to give their product any kind of punch. What Dr. Rafferty had to say about the frustrations and fee-bleness of the young militant writers could be equally ap-plied to those of the 'in groups' who want to overthrow the "Establishment" and replace it with something of their own building. How foolish and stup-id can they be? Can't they realize that the Establishment they seek to ov-erthrow, is the result of the best thinkers, scholars, engin-eers, scientists and workers the world has known since the dawn of civilization? Who them are qualified to pro-duce something better? Those who burn down the banks because the banks serve the establishment, are living on the checks they cash, which are sent to them by their par-ents. They destroy the firms, which make the transfer of funds safe, convenient and pos-sible. So, if I could, I should like to say to the dissidents, "Build-i-n' of a better Establishment don't mean much, when you don't have the intelligence, background and plans to build it." Never once have I heard the leaders of the campus riots say what they proposed to build up-on the ashes of a burned out university or college facility. What kind of social progress is that? So long 'til Thursday. Been Counted? If Not, Call at the U.S. Census Office Were you counted in Census '70? With the 1970 Census of Population and Housing virtu-ally completed locally, District Mgr C. R. Lomax announced the beginning of a "Were You Counted?" campaign to insure that no resident of the area has been overlooked. If you think you or your fam-ily might have been missed, you are urged to notify the cen-sus district office by means of a phone call or letter. Also a "Were You Counted" form will be printed in the daily news-papers. The importance of a com-plete count was stressed by Mr. Lomax. He urged residents to get in touch with his office in Orem, 225-794- and obtain a form to fill out if they be-lieve they were left out. Geneva Works 1970 Savings Bond Drive Gets Underway Three Geneva Works em-ployees representing the Utah National Guard, will join with Utah Governor Calvin Ramp-to-n in opening ceremonies for Geneva Works' 1970 U.S. Sav-ings Bond Campaign, Friday.
