THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: I For thy sake, tobacco, I would do anything but die.?Charles Lamb (1775-1834). Duplin Is Too Wet For Dole In going from one place to another In Dup lin this week, water can be seen standing in fields, covering lawns and completely filling roadside ditches. There does not seem to be enough primary water courses. The secondary channels fill with water and apparently have no primary channel to drain into, -the water is standing still v/ithout motion. Dirt streets and country roads are a quagmire. We are talking a lot about eliminating poverty. The fastest way to do this is to give employment to as many people as we can. The stan must be made somewhere. Here is a place. Meat can be put on the table by em ploying workers to construct adequate drain age for surface water, especially in the digging of canals and waterways Into which secondary channels will be able to drain. Certainly no man worth helping wants to sit on the proch in summer and by the stove in winter^ and live off a dole provided by the government and it Is hoped that any of the blueprints for the elimination of poverty that are made by the government under this pro gram will call for work rather than dole. Thomas Carlyle wrote, "Even in the meanest sorts of Labor, the whole soul of a man is composed into a kind of real harmony the in stant he sets himself to work." Educating those who have little or no train ing is a must in the program for eliminating poverty, but that will take a long time, to give . jobs now in public works programs will give the unemployed self-respect that corner stone of all virtue. What better idea can be taught a man than not to abandon himself? There is satisfaction in eating bread earned by your own labor. No self-respecting man wants to live by dole. Let it be hoped that the Administration will come up with a works program and not ano ther "hand-out.' Voltaire wrote, "Labor rids us ot three great evils?irksomeness, vice, and poverty. Primarily 1 Personal Problem THE WILMINGTON STAR There Is actually little new material In report by the special government scien tific team which links cigarette smoking to several forms of cancer and terms the habit a health hazard which needs "appropriate re medical action.'* But the lack of fresh material does not keep this report from being Important. It Is for at least two reasons. From one viewpoint, this Is special govern ment recognition of particular health problem. The dangers from smoking cited heretofore have originated on the levels of individuals and private organizations. Now. the govern ment itself has spoken. From another viewpoint, certain parts of the report give extraordinary and Impressive em phasis to the committee's conclusions. Like, for example, its report that the death rate to non-smokers was nearly 1,000 times higher from lung cancer, about 500 times higher from bronchitis and emphysema and about 70 per cent higher from coronary artery. It Is reasonable to presume this report will encourage many Americans to stop smoking something their private physicians have been asklhg them to do for years. Thus, this report becomes a personal thing and that Is the way it should be welcomed. While the committee cited the need for action It did not recommend what steps should be taken. That was not part of Its responsibility. But in a, statement accompanying the report. Surgeon General Luther Terry pledged that the Public Health Service would'?move promptly to determine what remedial health measures' the service should take. But he refused to speculate on what steps the govern ment might take. The attitude of Senator Maurtne B. Neu berger, Oregon Democrat, was quite different from that of the committee and Dr. Terry. She immediately called for a sweeping na tional program to control the hazards of smok ing. And, to this end she plans special legis lation. One of her proposed bills would give the Federal Trade commission the power to regulate cigarette advertising and labeling and the other to provide education and research on smoking. Obviously, Senator Neuberger wants the bureaucrats to take over. But that Is not the solution to this problem. The solution lies in the individual smokers reaction to this forthright warning. To him, It is a personal metter to be met through ab stinence or to take the possible consequen ces. His reaction will determine the impact of this report upon tobacco's big place in the nation's economy. Months likely will pass before a definite picture on the ultimate re sults of this report can be developed. But. as this needed time goes by, let's hold ar gument over the report and proposed govern mental interference to the minimum. Face Of The Job Future THE MILWAUKEE JOURNAL In this period of dynamic change, employ ment demand shifts swiftly. Job opportuni ties can be plentiful today in one area, scarce tomorrow. A guide to the labor market of the future that is, up to 1975-is offered In the labor department's latest edition of "Occupational Outlook Handbook." It provides current In formation on about 700 occupations and 30 major Industries. Highlights of the outlook, based on full employment, are: The most rapid rise In employment will be ih the professional and technical field, par ticularly among engineers, scientists and tech nicians The number of classroom teachers, * nurses and accountants will also grow, but at a slower rate. Rapidly expanding industries are likely to be construction, finance, insurance and real es tate, whole sale and retail trade. No growth Is expected in mining industry jobs and only slow expansion is anticipated in transporta tion communications and public utilities. Contrary to general assumption, the crowing use of automatic data processing equipment will not make clerical workers obsolete. On the contrary, the number of clerical workers is expected to increase. Entrance requirements in more fields will become tougher and competition for certain jobs will increase. But tor educated and well trained job seekers, opportunities and rewards will be readily available. * ? ? ? - ? ae W> MTNIMI MTM AN* (VINT* (MM VISTINVlAat Winston Ckarchill, delivered hi* ftmoui "Give a* the tool*" |v f tech, January 17, IH1.

How many of us can truthfully say that our conscience is free of offense against God? And, how often in the course of everyday living do we offend our neigh bor or a business competitor ir some unintentional or unavoid able way. For the majority of us, con science is something we must contend with.

ELLA V. PR IDG EN . I THE CHRISTIAN UNDERSTANDING OF GOD I The first affirmation of the I Christian faith about God is i expressed In the first word of the Bible, "In the beginning I God..." The meaning of the creation narratives in Genesis, with their striking poetic imag ery. Is that God Is the creator of the universe. Including man. God is thus the ground of all beings; that is to say that no thing exists apart from God, no life continues outside of his reckoning. He Is personal Sov ereign and sustainor of all that is. This means that all life, including man. Is totally de pendent upon God. God's crea tion is not only a past event but a continuing reality. God revealed himself to us in Je- | sus Christ who spoke of God as Father. The New Testament affirms; "God so loved the World that he gave his only son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have eter nal life" (John 3:16) In Jesus Christ tne disciples experienced God's presence, his love his will, his right eousness. In the wonder and power of Jesus's life, death and ressurrectlon, God was present and active as Redeemer. The love which Jesus showed to those about him, his boundless compassion, his healing and teaching about God as Father, his self- sivine in going to the Cross. Through all of this, we note the holy love of God. It Is a love that enters the life of Christians who acknow ledge Christ as Lord. That love is the decisive key to the na ture of God. Henderson Endorses Neuse Basin Congressman David N. Hen derson today endorsed the sur vey report on Neuse River Ba sin just released by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers?. South Atlantic office, Atlanta, Georgia.

The long range plan also cal led for additional resevoirs at Wilson Mills on the Neuse, Buckhorn on Contentnea Creek and Beulatown on Little River, but recommends only the Falls project for Immediate con struction. "The Neuse has been too long neglected," Henderson said in Washington today, "and as a member of the House Public Works Committee, it will be my aim to work with my col leagues here to see that this report is implemented as speedily as possible." I ? ' . From Ileen Madsen, Woon socket, 8.D.: I remember we went to church and Sunday school in the schoolhouse and even in those days the schooihouses had a two or three-fold purpose and wasn't used only nine or eight months of the year. Many community affairs were held in the schoolhouse. Church and Sunday school were just as reverent and sincere as today, perhaps more because of the simplicity of the services and the place of worship. Our grandparents and forefa thers had lots of fond memories and lots of fun in those days and we as younger ones must also re member that they put forth great efforts to make this country such a great land of the free and a home of and for the brave. With God's help, let's all work to keep It that way. ? ? ? From Hal Keasler, Union City, Tennessee: Remember when grandmother went into the woods to gather Blood Rult, sassafras, peppermint, smart weed and a dozen other things, together with a bottle of castor oil and a box of quinine comprising her cure for all ills? Generally, they worked, too. I remember Uncle Alf kept a poplar board, about 8 feet long and 16 inches wide that was called a cooling board. It traveled all over the country, used to lay out the dead. In many cases, the coffin came from the general store, brought in a wagon How things have changed in 7C years.

To a certain ex tent, though, this familiarity overlooks the underlying prob lems of the age Involved in pro posals which would grant tax reduction, civil rights, medi cal care, and aid to education. Each of these measures de mands a reasoned judgment rather than an emotional res ponse. As the tensions of the long and costly Cold war struggle have eased, If only for the mo ment, perhaps the Impor tant question before the Con gress Is the proper role of the Federal Government In the af fairs of our country. What has been happening recently In the Cold War Is having an Impact on the judgment Congress will make, for it has turned the at tention ofthe country once again to some pressing problems here at home. These concern the long standing fundamentals of how to preserve the private enterprise system, how to keep the Fed eral-state-local system of the government in balance, and how to cope with ever mounting costs of government. The ans wers are not easy, nor are they always Inflexible, for the country is growing, conditions rnwe from stage to stage, and the economy comes face to face with new circumstances. So the phrase "adjust and comprom ise" are a part of the nature of any Congress composed of 535 representatives of a nation of more than 185 people. A growing facet of Federal government demonstrates this. Fifty years ago, Federalgrants In aid to the states ana local governments were confined principally to agricultural ex tension work, ? veterans ser vices, and payment for govern mem services In the District of Columbia. In the year 1912 the cost was $11 million. To day, the Senate is ready to re examine the whole program at a time when there are fifty-nine of these grants-in-aid pro grams at a budgeted cost of $10 billion annually. Almost any bill of national consequence now arrays some alleged need against other re alities of the age. For exam ple, when tax reduction is pro posed it immediately runs into the problem of how the nation can meet its revenue needs. When new rights are sought for some individuals, Congress must weigh the liberties to be taken away from other Ameri cans. When new programs for health care are proposed to add to an already large Social Se curity structure, the question of how to pay for it comes up along with many other fun damental considerations. When the Federal Government is ask ed to meet new educational needs, Congress finds that it still has not resolved the con stitutional controversy over the church and state relations and the use of tax dollars. It is these clashing stand ards and how they are adjus ted, and often whether they pre sent principles so dear that they cannot be compromised, that will determine the actions of Congress this session. If the past year has set any guide posts. Congress will continue its effort to restore a balance between spending and revenue, and to achieve some equilibrium between the powers and pro grams of the central govern ment and those of the states and local communities. This too, I think reflects the mood of the country. /ii n ENGINEER AND A SCHOOL TEACHER SET UP A RETIREMENT BUSINESS . .A AI *Ai AAA Money can be made in re tirement. It is being made all the time. And in some cases, unlikely men and women who can cast off the inhibitions of their working years are building some dramatic second careers. Mr. Winifred Jones and Miss Margeline Smith are doing this. In fact, they are on their way to becoming tycoons in the con struction industry. Mr. Jones and Miss Smith (these aren't their real names) have formed a retirement part nership. He is 06, a mechanical engineer by trade, and retired 'ast year from ? - >ervisory job in the auto mi turing busi ness. Miss Smith, 64, was a high school teacher and retired two years ago. By different paths. Miss Smith, and then Mr. Jones and his wife a year later, settled in the same Southern town. Miss Smith be came a church friend of Mrs. Jones, which is how Mr. Jones met her. But not at first. "When Mrs. Jones and I arrived here," he says, "I had enough income to Nve comfortably, and I had some sav ings. But I was determined to go to work?at something where I could use my hands, and prefer ably at carpentry. I could lay brick. I could do electrical work. But I was a fair expert at car pentry. All of this going back to projects in my basement at . home . . He says he found construction standards in the town not high, I and the jobs non-union. But the building business was booming. . He went to a small contractor * who was building room additions, garages, etc., asked for a job as carpenter, and got it?at <1.75 an hour. In three weeks he had an idea. His boss and all the other contractors in town were hir ing an excavator from a city 16 MUM OWOV MAKAJIU |m 4Anra> L.J hi k, n n,ODoay ">wn to want to put up int* needed to buy one. "It was easy to check the idea out," says Mr. Jones. "The ma chine could be had for $6,000 down, with the remaining $18,000 financed at 5 per cent. There was enough building on the boards to keep the machine busy for two years." He talked his boss into putting up $2,000 of the down-payment, took $2,000 of his own savings, and then had a talk' with Miss Smith. She had savings she didn't know how to invest, and she want ed a job. Would she be interested in putting up $2,000, then taking over the job of scheduling the machine, keeping in touch with the contractors, and sending out the bills? She could get $1.75 an hour for this, while Mr. Jones, after a week of training, would operate the machine, also at $1.75 an hour. Miss Smith joined up. A three-way partnership thus was born, and the business pros pered. Mr. Jones has now contracted for the partnership to buy a small ditch-digging machine, also In de mand In the building boom. It will be financed, and is expected also to pay for itself. Mr. Jones, hav ing had his fling with the excava tor, will hire a younger man to operate it, while he takes over the ditch-digger. Asphalt is also in demand, and has to come from 28 miles away. The partnership will digest the ditch-digger, then buy a powered asphalt machine. After that will come a powered post-hole digger. "And eventually, who knows" we may buy a steam-shovel," Mr Jones opines. In retirement, as in all of life, one thing invariably leads into another. And many a retired man would have to take only that Ini tial step into aome activity to make something happen in his life. Uncle Pete From ChHtlin Switch 1 DEAR MR. EDITOR: The fellers st the country store Saturday night come up with a important discovery. The Congress of the united states and the people of the United States ain't speaking In the same language. And when con gressmen talks in one tongue and the people In another they was bound to be chaos in the land. This discovery was made at what you might call a meeting at the Summit and all the best minds of the community was present Including Zeke Grubb's preacher. It ougrn to go down In history alongside such Items as Columbus discovering the New World andDemocratsdiscover ing the New Frontier. First off. Ed Doollttle told about how the Congress passes a debt ceiling blu ever ses sion. in the language of the , folks back home, you hit the top when you hit the celling and they ain't no more. But the Congress has raised the debt ceiling 3 times In the last 10 months. Then the Congress, lam anted Bug Hookum, don't pass nothing but Temporary taxes, when the folks back home knows all taxes was permanent. Zeke Grubb reported that the Congressmen backing the medi cine care fer the aged bill claims it won't cost tne tax payers a cent and explains It will be paid by the employers and employees. Zeke estimated about 95 per cent of the tax payers was them same employ ers and employees. And Zeke's preacher was ex plaining how this free scholar ship bul fer some college stu dents got passed. When some of the folks back home com plained It was a give-away pro gram them Congressmen Im mediate changed It from a free scholarship to anon-reimburs able loan deal. Re*. ROBERT H. HARPER A niOflU Of COUSAGf \l/hen the late John Fitzgerald vv Kennedy wrote his book Pro files of Courage, he could not know that his devoted wife, in a tragic hour, would qualify as one who might have been included in his book. For Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy has demonstrated the he#olSm which a historian has written "not infrequently scourges from the soul of womanhood." Cradling her slain husband's head in her arms as he was rushed to a hospital in Dallas and soon thereafter arriving in Washington with his blood on the dress she wore, Mrs. Kennedy has given the world an imperishable example of the way a high-born woman may walk down the dark valley of the shadow of death, when the rod and staff of God comfort her. We accord her a sure place among the great women who have adorned the pages of history, and we confidently believe that when "the sands of the desert grow cold and the infinite num bers are told" the name of Jac queline Kennedy will be found inscribed in letters of light that shall shine more and more in the Lamb's book of life?in letters that shall glow throughout all the nApfAAt Hov And. Mfd zeke's preacher, when they was opposition to the Federal Aid to Education bill on account of the folks back home was afraid of Federal control, them Congressmen took the word "control" out of it and set tg> standards on how the money would be spent. Clem Webster reported he had saw in the papers where Congressman John Ashbrook was telling about gltting inter ested in au them patriotic folks thar was working fer the Guv ernment and "serving their? country without salary." He found it was aU true, report ed Clem, they wasn't gittlng no salary. Tney was gittlng $60 a day in "consultant fees' and another $16 a day fer ex penses. making $76 a day, but not a penny fer salary. I recollect. Mister Editor, reading onct when I was a boy about a old Chinese proverb that said the beginning of all wisdom was calling a thing by: its right name, if tney was any; truth in that proverb, we got the most unwisdom Guvernment oni earth. ; ' Yours truly.

Al though the music follows the path of the previous four which con centrated on authentic Hawaiian tunes, Edwards and his group have added a new sound?the organ?to the familiar steel gui tars, vibes and ukuleles... Among the melodies heard are Hawaiian Wedding Song, Lovely Hula Hands, Pagan Love Song and a medley, Farewell to the Islands?Aloha Oe, which closes the visit. Ever since the zither was used in the movie Third Man, it has become one of the most popular of film background instruments . . . Recently, it figured in The Wonderful World of the Broth ers Grimm and the zitherist was the talented Ruth Welcome . . . In her latest LP, Miss Welcome presents an international motion picture theme with a dozen selec tions (including the two previ ously mentioned) ranging frord Around the World in 80 Days) Song of the Barefoot Contessa. Colonel Bogey March and To Each His Own to Italy's Anna and Greece's Never On Sunday. It wasn't long ago that Tommy Collins hired a guitar player who turned out to be not only a guitar ist but a singer and composer as well ... As things turned out, Bock Owens' first song, You're for Me was recorded for Capitol by Collins . . . Now in Owens' latest LP, he pays his second tribute to a songwriter, this time to the man who gave him his first break . . . Here he records a dozen of Collins' songs.
