reportecfto the Council that in
order the land released

Guard, .the Federal Aviation
Agency l was requiring a
transfer of $19,050.00 to the
Airport Fund.
This anjiount equals the fair
market : value of the land. A
hope was expressed that the

this amount since the Town has

defray the cost of the Armory.

matter and report to the Council

Is Supported
By Industry
Industrial spokesmen, includ
ing E. Douglas Kenna, presi
dent, National Association of
Manufacturers, have reacted
favorably to the pension re
form bill which was signed into
law by President Gerald R.
Ford on Labor Day.
“This is something we have
supported,” said Mr. Kenna.
“We generally favor keeping
these things in the private sec
tor and this is so set up,” he
added.
However, the NAM leader
doubts that the new law will
encourage companies presently
without pension plans to start
them, as proponents of the
measure had argued. “Compa
nies have pension plans in or
der to be competitive in at
tracting good employes,” Mr.
Kenna explained. “Those com
panies that don’t have them
must have pretty good reasons
for not doing so.”
The pension law consists of
247 pages with 140 additional
pages of explanation. TheNAM
sees a need for what Mr.
Kenna called "a tremendous
educational job.”
Another reaction came from
the chief actuary for A. S.
Hansen, Inc. of Chicago, Rich
ard Keating. Although Keating
had mixed feelings, he gener
ally favored the measure say
ing, “.. . This bill will enhance
the security of retired persons,
and On that basir, I’m in favor
of it.” Mr. Keating is also
Chairman of tfie U.S. Depart
ment of Labor Task Force on
Pension Vesting/and Funding.

Plan For The Future With Perdue
I .
Perdue needs more chickens to supply our markets. We could sell 8 million more
chickens now if we were able to grow them. We are planning for our future by ex
panding in the R-C area! We now have over 'A million chickens growing in this
area. But this is not enough to satisfy the demands placed on our distribution by
housewives in the northeast. A lot of people are counting on you to grow
chickens.
Perdue is a totally integrated company. We have our own breed of chickens. We
produce hatching eggs to be hatched in our hatcheries for our broiler in contract
houses. We make our own feed from grain we have stored. This is used to feed our
broilers. The broilers are then processed in our own plants to ready them for
market.
Our growers are planning for their futures by growing Perdue chickens. Many
are looking to the future - and making sure they have money coming in from their
broiler house to supplement their retirement. Others are planning to educate their
children with "chicken" money. Still others are buying things they've always
wanted but couldn't afford. Because of the rate of inflation, money just doesn't go
as far as it used to. By growing Perdue broilers you can keep your income ahead of
inflation. And its not risky income because you have a guarantee from Perdue (in
writing). For 22 flocks you will receive a minimum of $35,200 (guaranteed) and
through good management you can receive much more.
Why dorr't you plan for your future as your neighbor has with a Perdue
broiler house.
Ask your neighbor then talk with Perdue.

Coordinated Change to Metric
Predicted by Precision Industries
“For the last ten years, the
National Tool, Die k Precision
Machining Association has
been observing and studying
the growing use of the metric
system of measurement in the
United States," according to
William E. Hardman, execu
tive vice president of the Asso
ciation.
In a recent letter to a mem
ber of the'House of Repre
sentatives he expressed his As
sociation’s strong support of
the proposed metric legislation.
“The tooling and machining
industry represents an esti
mated 8,000 contract metal
working firms with 240,000
employees, most of whom are
highly skilled. We are possibly
the most measurement-sensitive
industry group in the nation,
in that all of our .work is
specified to critical dimensions
often held to extremely close
tolerances.
“Yet, even under these con
straints, we do not foresee any
insurmountable problems in a
national changeover to the
metric system as long as there
is a coordinated national plan.
“Metrication presently has
enough momentum to be even
tually inevitable. A nationally
coordinated plan is absolutely
necessary to avoid the eco
nomic chaos which could arise
from uncoordinated, independ
ent efforts in developing metric
standards for commerce and
industry. A nationally-coordi
nated program can also provide
the opportunity to ‘clean up’
many of our superfluous and
ambiguous standards. Such a
program, guided by the prin
ciples of reason and common
sense, will not cause premature
obsolescence of capital equip
ment and will not require ex
tensive retraining of the work
force. Even in our own high
ly measurement-sensitive in
dustry, required training is ex
pected to be minimal.”
