story stands out because so
many people became Involved In
that youngster's recovery.

ambulance crew and of course
the hospital staff. I mean there
was a lot more to that incident
than would have been the case
ordinarily."

dedication of all Involved. "I just
reported the story, but I became
very involved with It and the
follow-up,"sald Gantt.

how she has Improved her Inter

ask the right questions and get
the stoiys essence.
"It's Important to ask open-

had a lot of work to do between

apartment."

reducing "conflicting messages"
to state and federal bodies re
garding issues ranging from
housing to roads.
"We've got to have one govern
ment and one set of priorities,"
he said.
Although consolidation hasn't
been embraced In Mecklenburg,
Autrey said the time may be
right for a merger.
"We seem to be sending con
flicting messages to those we're
communicating with. People are
looking for us to set our priori
ties," he said.
Autrey called for stepped up
cooperation within the county
to curb drug abuse and domestic
violence, with more emphasis
on prevention and counseling.
Local police should be allowed
to intervene In domestic dis
putes and make warrantless ar
rests of abusive spouses.
"It's getting so that women are
safer In the streets of Charlotte
than they are at home," he said.
Defining substance abuse as q
"crisis that threatens to tear«
apart the fabric that holds us to-^
gether," Autrey said he will pro
pose a county-wide "dmg com
mission" to develop a "war plan” -
on drugs. Including drug abuse '
programs.
