THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: The keenest pangs the wretched find Are rapture to the dreary voice. The leafless desert of the mind. The waste of feelings unemployed. ? Byron Wanted---10,000 Trained Workers North Carolina's most wasted resource is her idle manpower, poorly educated and in adequately trained. Many persons now in this rejected group can make an important eco nomic contribution to society through some form of purposeful employment, if given the opportunity to develop their work potentials. It is" good sense for society to help the in dividual to help himself, investment in train ing and other assistance to enable unemplo yed persons to adjust to changing job re quirements pays off in increased tax re turns, lower social welfare costs and re duced unemployment insurance payments. The resulting employment also reduces manpower waste, delinquency, vandalism and crime; and makes possible better education, housing, and health tor future North Carolinians. More sig nificantly, getting a job provides the up-llft of accomplishment to the individual and con tributes to die stability of family and com munity life. Recent statistics from die Bureau of Em ployment Security Research of North Carolina indicate demands for skilled and trained work ers to be great. By example, by the fall of 1966, North Carolina will need an addit ional 8,944 trained personnel in business occupations such as Accounting, Secretarial duties sales and mangement; and 2,193 train ed automobile-truck mechanics. The James Sprunt Insltute will provide op portunities for training that have never been offered in Duplin County. To meet die demand for business trained people, three full-time programs in the fol lowing areas of study will begin September 9. Business Administration Accounting Executive Secretarial To meet die demand for Automobile truck mechanics, a full-time program in Au tomobile mechanics will also begin Septem ber 9. Student cost for all courses of study is only $10 per month plus books and supp lies. Obsolete Samaritan ? "I aont want to get involved." That was the excuse given by some 40 odd Nejw Yorkers who watched a woman be ing stabbed to death and did not go to her assistance or call the police. The same thing happened in Richmond, va.. Thursday afternoon when a dozen people stood by while a woman was being stabbed by an attacker. Finally, however, a student arrived an die scene apdgeat to the woman's assis tance and diverted her attacker's attention long enough for her to escape, others who had watched in curious but callous Indiffer ence left the scene as police arrived, one man muttering, "I don't want to be Invol ved." Sucn an attitude would have been In times past, seemed inconceivable. But It Is obvious that these two recent occurrences, by no means the only ones, are evidence of a grow ing philosophy not only in matters of crime but In other matters, too. -1 It is possible that attitudes of law enforce ment officers and the courts themselves in . which even witnesses are regarded and some times treated as criminals nave created such distrust and distaste for these agents of jus tice that "I don't want to get Involved" Is a natural reaction. Whatever It Is, this sickness In society cannot be Ignored. The "good Samaritan' should not become obsolete. The News and observer Tobacco Surplus wuc. means oi neiping 10 reduce cne our* densome surplus of flue cured tobacco would be to sell tobacco to?countries behind the Iron Curtain. This possibility has been suggested seri ously and strongly in the pastfew days by Norm Carolina' s Senator B. Everett Jordan. It is not the first time that such a proposal has beer, discussed, but previous suggestions have lacked serious consideration. It is worth studying now whether the tobac co Industry should follow through on Senator Jordan's suggestion and see if a program can be worked out by which surplus leaf could be sold to Communist countries. Frankly, we see nothing wrong with the idea, if the details can be worked out satisfac torily for this country and for the tobacco industry. Moreover, If this surplus tobacco can be sold for cash to markets behind die Iron Curtain it should prove beneficial to all concerned. In die first place, securing new cash mar kets would mean we would not be selling the tobacco to countries who would buy it with foreign aid funds from the United States. In die second place, there would be no sales on credit; It would be strictly cash and car ry. The financial arrangements certainly should be satisfactory to all concerned, and equally Important to our leaf Industry could begin to make a significant dent in reducing the pre sent dangerously high surplus of some 700 million pounds. '' There would, of course, be considerable red tape to go through before such deals could be approved and Implemented, but the ur gency of the need to find ways to reduce the surplus makes worth the effort If new cash markets can be established. The wheat program which was approved last year provides for the movement of this surplus to Communist nations under a State department program. The movement of surplus tobacco under a similar program, for cash, ought to be given serious thought and con sideration. Other trade is carried on with Communist countries; tobacco ought to fit into a program of similar nature. The suggestion is, at feast, one new means for reducing a surplus which threatens die domestic tobacco industry. r The Wilmington Star. j Uncle Pele From Chittlin Switch : i i I see oy your papers where ? the feller that runs the Clayton County Journal in Georgia has got indicted fer bootlegging, I ain't meaning to throw no rocks at the newspaper perfession and It could be he got in such a state of poverty ne~ had to ^ I In the bootlegging business to I a his newspaper going.

Farther more, he told him to come by his store Immediate and he would give him a page ad an his merchandise. As a general rule, newspaper folks seems to be pritty good folks and I'm sorry this feller In Georgia had such pore adver tisers.

SAYS * In another far-reaching de cision the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the equal pro tection clause of the 14th A mendment " requires that the seats in both houses of a bi cameral state legislature must be apportioned on a popula tion basis." The latest June 15 ruling, the fourth in a series which began on March 26, 1962 with Baker ?. Carr. is certain to affect virtually every state in the Union. It further spells out the new court doctrine of "one man, one vote" on legis lative representation, and ap plies it now to State Senates. These four decisions rare sent a drastic departure from all prior Supreme Court posi tions. Until the Tennessee state legislature reapportionment case of Baker v. Carr, the Court had taken the position that this was a political ques tion and not a Judicial ques tion. The majority opinion in the Baker v. Carr decision o ver ruled this long held opinion. v The dissenting Justices said chat the Court was entering a political thicket. The June 15th cases involve state legislative representation in the six statps (rf New York, Colorado, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and Alabama. Justices Harlan, Stewart and Clark in strong dissents said that the Court was not applying con stitutional legal standards and was forgetting the basic con cepts of orderly governmental processes. Justice Harlan stated the ma jor problem involved in his conclusion: "These decisions also cut deeply into the fabric of our federalism, what must follow from them may eventua lly appear to be the product of state Legislatures. Never theless, no thinking person can fail to recognize that the af termath of these cases, howe ver, desirable it may bethought in Itself, will have been acn leved at die cost of a radical alteration in the relationship between the states and the Fe deral Government, more par ticularly the Federal Judiciary. | Only one who has an overbear ing Impatience with the federal system and its political proc aa aa I esses will believe that the cost was not too high or was In evitable." Therln perhaps lies the crux of the matter. The decisions convey an Impatience by the ma jority of the Court witn the es tablished processes of govern ment. Unfortunately, local and state governments are some times slow to perform their du ties in reapportionment proce dures. This attitude has brought the counter attitude that not- _ hlng Is being done about die matter. Those who believe In I. local self government make a II mistake when they fall to dls- II charge their duties. There is II always the Insistent demand II that the Federal government | perform the task for them. But. the latest apportionment decisions go far beyond the 1 usual questions of representat ion and populatlom. The doc trine has been expanded to In clude State Senates which have 1 heretofore represented geogra phical and other diverse Int erests. It raises other possible Federal questions. Will dm Su- > preme Court continue this line of decisions to conclude that the United States senate must > be based upon population in its representation? what of the Electoral College system of electing the President and Vice President? Congress has be fore it many proposals to amend the Constitution with respect to the Electoral College system, i but no new plan has received a majority consensus. Admit- L tedly. the Court is unlikely to i enter these political thickets soon, but there are court de cisions now which furnish the J basis for concern. I have no doubt that repre sentation problems ought to be L met. Yet, the question remains should die Court Institute these r reforms? I think not, for court decrees are unsuited for the po litical decisions best calcula ted to insure representative government. febWB" Proas Mr*.

P*M?* .j - Christians of all times are greatly Indebted to Luke, Be loved Physician, accurate his torian, faithful missionary, humble servant of Jesus Christ. Born in Antioch in Syria, a Greek with broad education and culture, he was a physician. Luke was St. Paul's companion from Troas to Phillippi and he stayed there six years; he a gain became Paul s companion and remained with him to die close of the narrative. Lukethe Beloved Physician, was a great help to Paul, who was feeble in body. After Paul's death Luke traveled widely preaching as he went between A.D. IS and A. O. 100. Luke was hanged from an olive tree in Greece. Luke the only Gentile writ er of Scripture nas given us two divinely inspired Books of the New Testament; Luke that bears his name and die Book of Acts which gives the first 35 years of the History of the Christian Church, also the greatest mis sionary book ever written. Luke talked with Mary, the mother of Jesus, and received from her the matchless story he could have had from no o dier. Luke gathered from eye witnesses ana ministers of me Word. There are passages of great Importance we owe to the Gospel alone. The story of Jesus' birth songs of the nativity, incidents of Jesus' boyhood, the raising of the son of the Widow of Nain, the wom an a sinner, parables of the Good Samaratian, the lost coin, the lost sheep, lost son. Dives and Lazarus, Jesus' prayer on the cross for his enemies, thewalk to Emaus. Acts is a book of the con tinued activities of the living Christ through the Holy Spirit.

DON'T LET PAPA GET SICK YOU ARE somewhere around age 40, have a family, and are getting along well. You are nice people. Your parents are retired. If this fits you, you had better have a look at your parents' health insurance. A couple that must be identi fied only as Mr. and Mrs. W. P. MacM. show the reason why. Mr. Mac retired about three years ago. He had done well, and he and his wife had a fine way of life in a neighborhood apartment His retirement income added up to $840 a month. He bad *8000. in savings, and * **,000 cash value on his paid-up life insur ance. He and Mrs. Mac decided they wanted to give up the apartment and move into one of the retire ment villages that are now open ing up everywhere. They chose one where they would buy their small cottage for *3,000 down, and pay *70 a month on a mort gage. Then Mr. Mac began having pains in his abdomen. When they hadn't gone away after a couple of weeks, Mrs. Mac made him go to a doctor. He got a prescrip tion. Still the pains didnt go away. He went back to the doc tor, this time got a thorough check, and seven days later was in a private hospital for an oper ation. The children were told it wasn't serious. Four months after the opera tion, Mr. Mac had returned home, then gone back to the hospital, and again had returned home and once more gone back. A second operation was pending, and the *4,000 cash value on the life in surance had been taken and spent. "Which was all right," Mr. Mac told his wife, "because I al ways figured that as an emer gency nestegg for us ..." Eleven months after Mr. Mac? first operation, the remaining $9,000 in savings was down to $6M. No end to the medical ex penses was in sight. Mrs. Mac notified the children that things were getting serious. The children, a son and a' daughter, visualised the approach ing disaster. They did what good children of nice people do?They took over. They moved the father by ambulance to the daughter's home. The son took the mother . . . with small homes and the no way except to separate them. The son and daughter negotiated with the retirement village to get a $3,200 refund on the cottage. The cost of nurses, hospitals, and doctors from the time the father went into the daughter's home until he died was $6,700. The son and daughter had to go out and borrow about $4,000 to cover this and the funeral, after the mother's funds were gone. And now the mother is living alternately with them. This is the tragedy that "nice! people" in our society face. If' they were poor, or were not proud, there are charity doctors: and hospitals. But nice people; can't admit they are that poor, and they are always proud. So the nice children of retired people should look to their par* ents' health insurance, and buy: some out of their own pockets if' necessary. The insurance is not all good. Some of it has brutal: cut-off dates, while the cancer still' spreads. But until something bet* ter comes along, nice people,; somehow, had better see that their parents have some.
