According to Colonel John T. Jenkins, commander of the Highway Patrol, troopers performed almost 200,000 acts of courtesy during 1981. Jenkins pointed out that the primary responsibility of the Patrol is traffic law enforcement, but he emphasized the interest troopers have in their roles as public servants. "They take great pride in assisting stranded motorists, giving travel directions for tourists, and providing other services for the motoring public," Jenkins said. He said changing flat tires and assisting motorists to obtain gas are everyday occurrences. According to Jenkins, troopers are often credited with saving the lives of accident victims or citizens who experience cardiac arrest or other potentially fatal attacks. 'Although we are not in the ambulance business, on numerous occasions some of our troopers have found themselves in a losing race with the 'stork' and be came instant obstetric ians," he said. 'Troopers perform as Good Samaritans' without expecting any special recognition, but many motorists write the Governor or Patrol Headquarters to express their appreciation," Jenkins said. Patrol records indicate that more than 1,000 letters of appreciation were received in 1981. "The objective of the Highway Patrol is to not only make the highways safe but to assist as many motorists as possible during their travel," Jenkins concluded. We Can't Rest On Our Laurels B\ KEF. I.. II. FOUNTAIN WASHINGTON. I). C. Education. initiative, know-how three key ele ments of America's great success story But. we cannot rest on our laurels. Rapidly changing times compel us to be certain our young people are fully equipped with the. skills and knowledge necessary to keep the United States strong, prosperous, and free In fact, in today's world, rapid change is the only thing which does not change In the past things were different. For in stance. man first began to put his words down in writing about 3000 B.C.; but the printing press did not come along until about the mid 1400's A D By contrast, the Wright broth ers' air flight in North Carolina occurred in 1903, and only 66 years later, America put a man on the moon. Clearly, the United States must continue to have people who are able to make and understand rapid technological break throughs in all areas-in medicine, in agriculture, in defense, and in general science, to mention but a few And it is important to remember that this vital knowledge is transmitted to each succeeding genera tion by the process of education Civilization stops when education fails to pass on the accumu lated wisdom of past generations. The administration has proposed its 1983 education budget, and extremely careful study must be given to all aspects of it. Wedding Plans Are Announced Mr. and Mrs. Lessie W. Wilson are pleased to announce the up-coming marriage of their daugh ter, Annette Bridget, to Garrett Orlando Floyd of Henderson. Floyd is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Elson Floyd of Henderson. Miss Wilson resides in New York City and is employed by Chemical Bank. The groom lives in Forest City, and is employ ed by Burlington Indu stries. The ceremony will take place at Greenwood Bap tist Church in Warrenton on April 10 at 3 o'clock. All friends and family are invited to attend. And frankly, responsible alternatives to the Presi dent's budget must also be considered. While it is absolutely necessary to reduce the rate of increase in Federal spending, some of the administration's recommendations. if adopted, would be counter productive. The administration's 1983 budget for education is $10.3 billion. This is $2.7 billion less than the 1982 authorization and almost 40 percent less than the amount authorized only two years ago. Specifically, the Presi dent's budget calls for very sharp reductions in college student assistance, the Title I program which aids disadvantaged youngsters, and dozens of other educa tion programs over the next three years Budget authority for Fell grants, work-study, and Title I would be cut by more than half their 1981 levels by 1984 And the administration would make graduate students ineligible for guaranteed student loans. The Pell grant program would be slashed from $2 2 billion in 1982 to $1 4 billion in 1983 and to only $1 billion in 1984-85 In the college work-study program, the President has proposed cutting the plan from one billion to about $400 million and eliminating national direct student loans. In elementary and sec ondary education, the Title 1 program would be cut to $1.5 billion by 1984, down from $3.1 in 1981. And the President has asked for deep cuts in educational aid to the handicapped; the request is for $880 million in 1983. down from about $1.3 billion in 1982 Undoubtedly, there is a need to reduce waste in educational programs. For example, the high rate of failure to repay student loans is unacceptable In just one category, a recent congressional investiga tion discovered that about 50,000 of 167,oin) student loans due were delinquent In addition. goveniment departments and colleges and universities must put a higher priority on collec tions In fact, until five yers ago, the government did not even send bills to students who were in default. America's young people are her future. And if the United States is to remain free, capable of increas ing productivity, capable to technological advances, and capable of broadening our horizons in all areas, the educational needs of America's children just must be met.
