Page 6-B report U.S. Senator JESSE ★★ ■= uri tie = HELMS WASHINGTON—I regret that President ford was per suaded by his advisors to suggest recently that he is; now in favor of amnesty for draft dodgers and deserters. And I think it is interesting — and highly instructive — to note the immediate reaction of a number of the people who fled the country- rathet than answer their call of duty. The television newscasts carried numerous interviews with draft dodgers now in Canada and other countries. These arrogant young people consider themselves "heroes," and they said flatly that they will not come home unless and until, in effect, they are recognized as heroes. Which is just fine with me. Insofar as I am concerned, they can stay there! Os course they can always come home when they are willing to face the music for having violated the law. But I am certainly not in favor of granting them any form of amnesty. LETTER—A lew days ago, I received a letter frbm a voung North Carolinian, Ralph Lowrance of Concord, who is now stationed w ith the Peace Corps on Mili Atoll in the Marshall Islands, Young Lowrance had learned that there are proposals to offer -amnesty to draft dodgers if they agree to serve in the Peace Corps. Mr. Lowrance wants no part of that. He fears that if dratt dodgers were required to serve in the Peace Corps, it is doubtful that they "could maintain the standards oi behavior and dedication we believe to be necessary.'. He went on to say: Being a Peace Corps Volunteer is one of the most taxing and demanding endeavors one can undertake." He doesn't want the Peace Corps to become associated, in the public's mind, with draft dodgers and deserters. He is exactly right. SOCIAL SECURITY—For many years, I have been con cerned about the immense tax burden being piled on the backs of young Americans just getting out into the world on their own. That's one of the reasons I have been so opposed to deficit spending by the Federal Government. Also, I have commented many times about the unfairness arid the inequities of the Social Security System. When a Senator talks and votes against wasteful welfare and pork barrel" spending, he can always expect to be condemned as an 'ultraconservative" by the liberal big city newspaper editors. And if he dares to raise questions , about Social Security, then these editors start demanding his defeat in the next election. I have always telt, however, that if enough people could know how unsound their Social Security System is, they would demand that the System be made sound and eq uitable. In recent months some articles have begun to appear acknowledging that the Social Security System is in a financiat mess. Whether the Congress will face up to its responsibility, and straighten out the mess, is still doubtful, Franklin D. Ropseye.lt warned long ago that Social Security should never be allowed to become a political football— but that s precisely what it is today. I saw a report the other day that contained the bleak arithmetic of this matter. As of today, the Social Security S stem has. promised to pay out two trillion dollars more than it will take in from present "members’' of the System. And what does lhat mean? It means that today's young workers, throughout their career's, will be required to pay higher and higher Social Security taxes. It's a bum deal tor them, and many of them are beginning to realize it. My Neighbor!

The Sandersons will be teaching parents for.the Lighthouse which is a group home for boys. : The group homes are community directed residential facilities for behavioral problems of pre-delinqfient and delinquent children between the ages of 10 and 18 with an emphasis of mid-adolescence. Procedures for admission to the group homes will be outlines so as to assist parents of children who are to be admitted to have a clear understanding of the program. Preceding admission, the child and parent will visit the home, assessment of the child’s previous life experience, individual needs, personality, clinical condition and circumstances necessitating admission will be made by professionals. In addition there will be a physical examination, psychological, developmental, environemntal educational and recreational assessments. Following this an individual treatment plan for each child will be outlined. The treatment plan will include a logical progression through the home treatment program to eventual discharge and return the family or other such residence as may be needed, according to Craven.

The program will include provision for regular'* consultation with a Ph.D. psychologist and child psychiatrist.
