the damage of flooding and, at the same
time, be aware of people’s rights. Such a
plan must provide reasonable levels of
flood control and affect lives, homes, and
property as little as possible.
Your suggestions that concrete flood
control proposals should be heard is a valid
one. Inherent in such plans or proposals
must be the alternative methods for pay
ment. In today’s world, it is far more dif
ficult to find feasible ways for government
to pay for services than it is for people
to suggest solutions unmindful of costs.
Your insight into the ways of people
and government has enabled you to correct
ly predict that we.either develop a general
ly acceptable flood control plan soon or
something may be done for us without par
ticipation by local people.
You will be pleased to learn that many
persons who opposed the former flood con
trol plan now are actively working on re
gionwide committees to bring more intelli
gent approaches to land use water manage
ment and wise utilization of this area’s nat
ural resources.
Mayor Charles H. Campbell, of Brevard,
is chairman of Regional B Commission,
which serves the four counties of Transyl
vania, Henderson, Buncombe, and Madison.
He has said, “The Commission will continue
to seek reasonable and acceptable alterna
tives for solutions to the region’s problems.
Land use and water management are high
on the Commission’s priorities. This re
gional planning commission seeks more ac
tive help from citizens of the region.” Other
members of the Commission from Transyl
vania are Bill Ives. J. W. Simpson, Mayor
Edith Osborne, and Billi Slough.
We commend you for your excellent
editorial and for your continued interest in
wise regional planning.
Sincerely,

BALSAM GROVE — Begin
ning Sunday evening at 7:30 p.
m. Revival services will be

Creek Baptist Church. Rev.

Hogsed will be doing the
preaching. The pastor and con

Sunday morning worship ser
vice was held at Shoal Creek
Baptist Church with a good
number in attendance. Officers
for the church were elected
for the coming year. Rev. Truitt
Owen was re-elected pastor to
serve the church for the next
year.
Funeral services were held

ed away Friday, July 6th. Bur
ial followed in the church ceme
tery. We wish to express our
deepest sympathy to Mr. Mc

and their customers badly need?
Well I don’t think so but evidently the
editor of The Charlotte Observer believes
that the federal government must move "to
end our self-defeating reliance upon the
automobile as the most important form of
trasportation everywhere”
The Observer is critical of Charlotte
for “making street, highway and parking
plans that largely ignore the national trend,”
and suggests that unless Charlotte toes the
lie, “a federal plan will be imposed on Char*,
lotte,” My Gawd!
Mass transportation is to be encouraged,
but the EPA’s — both federal and state—
must know that poorly maintained public
buses along with the junkers on the road,
are the foulest polluters of all Yet no pub
lic official complains about this unsatisfac
tory condition, or even attempts an inspec
tion. We may well ask, “Why?”
The Optimist
THE “PURE AIR now” people seeming
ly would take away or restrict the use of
our automobiles, deter the building of
nuclear power plants needed to avoid future
energy crises, and retreat into the uneralis
tic world of green pastures and empty pock
etbooks.
Dr A. L. Jones, a research association
of the Standard Oil Co. of Ohio, has furnish
ed a few facts to his 15-year-old daughter
who wanted to know whether hers would be
the last generation of people. Although Dr.
Jones may be considered suspect because
he does research for an oil company, his
reply was more optimistic than the views
she had heard in school. Dr. Jones said in
part:
“We have heard cries of wolf with re
spect to our oxygen supply, the build-up of
carbon monoxide the disppearance of spe
cies, DDT, thermal pollution, radiation ef
fects from nuclear power plants, the Am
chitka nuclear tests, lead in gasoline, and
mercury in fish.
“My studies,” said Dr. Jones, “suggest
that we are not on the brink of disaster.
The world’s oxygen supply is secure. Our
waters can be made pure again. The dis
appearance of species is natural. About 50 •
species are expected to disappear during this
century, biit it is also true that 50 species
became extinct last century and the century
before that.”
Dr. Jones continues: “Positive scientific
evidence is ’ that nuclear power plants con
structed to this date are the cleanest and
least-polluting devices for generating elec
tricity so far developed by man. The amount
oi raujauon escaping irom a wcu-uesigucu
nuclear plant is less than that from the cos
mic rays to which a passenger is exposed
on ai) ordinary jet aircraft flight.”
It is Dr. Jones’ view that our most
serious problem is the rapidly increasing
human population on world wide basis. He
says “the pollution of our natural, waters
with sewage and chemicals is perhaps the
second most serious one. Hydrocarbon emis
sions from automobiles can be hazardous,
especially in poorly ventilated locations.”
The Challenge
DR. JONES does not duck the problem
of pollution. He thinks progress can be
achieved in most areas, and dispels fears
that nuclear power plants are a menace to
mankind as some editorialists and cartoon
ists aver.
So let us get on with the purification
of our air, lakes, streams and rivers but
not at the sacrifice of an economy geared
to mass production and high standards of
living.
We cannot emasculate the automotive
industry, close d«wn factories and retreat
to a back-to-nature approach of withdraw
al gfrom reality.
Let the anti-pollution laws be strict,
and duly enforced in a sensible and work
able fashion. It is folly to believe that an
industrial nation can be pollution-free, and
still endure. But it can be freer from pollu
tion than at present and we are moving to
ward that objective. Not as fast, perhaps, as
we might wish, but moving nevertheless.
And may we be saved from the regi
mentation of our lives by bureaucrats whose
zeal for telling people what to do is ex
ceeded only by their arrogance and stupidity.
