Room 4835 U. 8. Department of State Washington. D. C. 20520 ADOPTION My husband and I are interested in adopting a Vietnamese infant who has been orphaned by the war. We are not con cerned with “sponsoring" the child by sending funds for its care; but, rather, would like to bring the infant to this coun try for formal adoption. We would be appreciative of any infor mation you might have. If this activity does not concern your agency, please refer us to someone who can be of assistance. Mrs. D. P. J., Cincinnati, Ohio. Dear Mrs. D. P. J.: At the present time it is difficult for an American family to adopt a Vietnamese orphan because the necessary administra tive machinery is not in place in Vietnam. Another difficulty is finding a responsible agent in Saigon to complete the detailed Vietnamese procedures. The South Vit namese government does not provide such a service as the general view in the Viet namese Ministry of Social Welfare is that Vietnamese orphans should be cared for in Vietnam and not be placed for adoption. However, you will find enclosed a list of American voluntary agencies which may be able to advise you on finding a responsible agent in Vietnam. Another problem involves the present adoption law in Vietnam. Usually a for eign family requires a waiver signed by the Prime Minister to adopt a Vietnamese child and such adoption is necessary to 2 Heard &Seen % Buff Life is so uncertain as is evidenced in the sudden passing of Lonnie Boyce, who was in his usual health Friday morning and was dead Saturday night as the result of an automoible accident in front of his home. In his passing, Chowan County has lost a valuable citizen. For many years he was a County Commissioner with whom, as a newspaper man, I sat with him in many meetings. He had a keen interest in Chowan County affairs, and was as serious about the business of the county as he was his personal affairs, so that he was a very valuable County Commissioner. He was a sort of citizen the county can ill afford to lose, so that here’s one who joins his fam ily and many friends in extending sym pathy for his sudden demise. o— Then, too, on Tuesday morning the life of Horace Taylor, in the prime of life, was snuffed out in another automobile wreck. Yes, life is very uncertain. We must just face the fact that in the midst of life there is death and no one knows when the sum mons will come. o Mr. and Mrs. Raja Singh and their little son plan to leave Edenton today (Thursday) for a long journey to Patiala, India. They have been in the states several weeks, part of which time has been spent with Mrs. Singh’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Worth Hare. They have traveled from coast to coast while here and when in Edenton on a Thursday night Mr. Singh was a visitor of the local Masonic Lodge which, he slated, at last week's meeting, he thoroughly en joyed and that he would carry back to his home lodge greetings from American Masons. I’ve learned that information about fish ing from the piers down Nags Head way changes at times. For instance, when I go early in the week. I’m told that the fish were biting very good on Wednesday. Then on my last trip over the weekend I was told they were catching plenty of fish cn Friday. But what my problem is, is to hit a day when the scudders are biting. ——o One of the busiest places in town a few days last week and early this week was back of Hotel Joseph Hewes, where the State Board of Health's mobile X-ray unit was in operation. This was one of the few cases of getting something for nothing, for it cost nobody anything to have this chest X-ray. Hundreds of people took advantage of this free chest X-ray, which will de termine any signs of tuberculosis in the early stages. Tuberculosis, you know, is no respector of persons, so that everybody should have been X-rayed. o Well, the old Municipal Building is now a thing of the past and the site has been pretty well cleaned up. Peoples Bank & Trust Company has had its building paint ed, which looks a lot better. Then, too, with the Municipal Building gone, the bank building appears to be a lot larger since it is out in the open. Anyway, when former Edentonians visit the old home town, they will notice quite a difference in that neck of the woods. But isn’t that the case in almost any town when one goea back after an absence for some time? Which reminds me that Pm planning to visit the town of my boyhood days the latter part of this week and the place will have changed so much that I’m very likely to get lost trying to get to my old neigh borhood. o Edenton’s Aces are still going strong in conference play with a perfect record to date. Last Friday night they romped all over the Perquimans Indians to the tune of 49 to 8. This Friday night on Hicks Field they will tangle with another tribe of Indians—Ahoskie. Here’s one who will not be in town for the game, hut hopes the Aces will take another scalp to tuck under their belts. It should be a good game and the Edenton Band will be on hand to fur nish good music and entertainment at half time. Go out ami see the game! obtain a Vietnamese travel document for the child. At present this is a time-con suming process. Therefore, an American couple starting out to adopt a Vietnamese child must be prepared to face many frus trations and have considerable patience before the orphan arrives in the United States. The Department of State does not be come involved in the adoption of an alien child until after the adoption has been ef fected, and then only through the issuance of a visa for the child to enter the United States. Visa applications, in most cases, are handled directly 'between the voluntary agencies’ representatives in the foreign country and the local United States Consul. public Parade Continued From Page 1 isn’t Ringling Brothers, it’s the Demo cratic Party “circus” with Chairman Jimmy V. Johnson as ringmaster, Gov. Bob Scott on the right and Executive Director Chuck Barbour on the left. The usual meanings of left, right and center, in terms of politics, doesn’t apply in the circus story. Johnson and Bar bour have never been known to be any where but to the left of center and Gov Scott is fighting hard to remain on dead center). It was Chairman Johnson, a master of strategy, who pasted the “sick” label on the Democratic Party in North Caro lina. He immediately found himself with a considerable amount of company The healthy ones lined up behind Secre tary of State Thad Eure in such num bers and influence that the chairman had to water down his original statement. Gov. Scott. Johnson and Barbour huddled and named a 60-member com mittee to suggest medicine for the sick party. They vowed they would have every element and every section equally represented. State Sen. Hargrove Bowles of the great State of Guilford, who himself likes to meander to the left of center, said it wasn't so. (He wants to talk of being governor and knows enough of Tar Heel politics to know the East is important). He said only 12 of the 60 reside east of Raleigh. That being the case, we in the North east faired pretty well. We got two of them. Rep. Phil Godwin of neighboring Gates deserved a seat because he is speaker in the House of Representatives. ijen t Jjeorge ;q( .Jttlfc Camden was als6 named. VVhJ’? He worked so untiring at getting the name of State College changed and the university handle has become so popular, maybe he is expected to do the same for the party. W hat all this amounts to is the partv leadership has fallen into a well plan ned trap. Ihe Republicans hope to get the Democrats to argue among them selves to the extent that they can slip in the hack door. It is commendable Sen. Bowles has found it convenient to look at a map of North Carolina not folded with east of Raleigh hidden. All candidates true and hopefuls—study Eastern North Ca rolina history well until the votes are counted. Then we get a little sick feeling our selves when the money and appointments are passed out. The list of accomplish ments of the Democratic Party is the best medicine we need, however, to get over being upset. ■ V iTwfi FIRST IN EDEMTOV FSnI National SS2T4TK. iAiTSJ: how tt works.
