White also pointed to the need
for an information program for
the general public on zoning re
quirements. He indicated that
often zoning problems are not the
result of deliberate violations but
of ignorance of the zoning re
quirements.
Comm. W. S. Biddix, chairman
of the Codes Policy and Knforce-
ment committee, made the
group’s recommendation, all of
which were approved by the
board.
He .<«iid the group felt the need
of legal service? for the dcixirt-
ment and contacted the City At
torney Jack Wiiite for iiis service.
He also sugge.sted an information
program for better understanding
of the city’s codivs and ordinances
and that m.ips of water, .sew('r
and gas tines should he updati'd.
Ho invited citizens who tire in
doubt about legal reriuiremenl.< of

White pointed out the city’s re
sponsibility to crack down and
enforce the ordinamces, that
neighbors of property owners are
incensed by lack of upkeep and
that some of the substandard

I it may be difficult to locate some

Robert Ruff remains a patient
at Oteon Veteran’s ho.spital and
friends m;iy write him in core

The crescendo of issues rose
on Capitol Jlill over the past
week. The Congress was faced
with making decisions on health,
the economy, welfare, the con
duct of the war, the continua
tion of our defense effort, to
j name just a few.
On the Senate side of the Capi-
I to!, the eo-called MdGovern-'Hat-
! field amen.lment to end the war
jdrew national attention. By a
I small margin, the Senate voted
I against adopting this approach.
At the same time, the House of
\ Repre.seiitatives had under dls-
Ifussion the annual multi-billion
! dollar defen.se procurement leg
islation which authorizes the pur-
clia.se of military eiiuipment to
be used by the defense estab
lishment. During this debate, a
version of the MeGovern-IIatfield
^amendment was offeiel setting
by legislation a dale to withdraw
all American troops from South
east Asia.
Frankly, I think that selling
a date in this particular legisla
tion would have little, if any, ef
fect in actually stopping the
fighting, inasmuch as such an

Mr. and Mrs. Doytt Falls have
been entertaining Mr. and Mrs.
Loy Costner and their daugliiter
of Mound City, Missouri. In honor
of their visit, an dalso to cele
brate -Mrs. Jaimes Champion’s
birthday, a dinner was given
Sunday. Attending were; Mr. and

son, Tracy, have returned from
a vacation to St. Louis, Mo. where
they visited Forest Park, the St.
Louis Zoo, and toured the iRob-
ert E. Lee riveiboat, among
other scenic attractions.
I amendment would only have
been a limitation on the pro-
icurement of military hardware
; after a certain date. The amend
ment, by admission of its spon-
! sors, would not require that
I li-oops be withdrawn from South
j Vietnam after December 31 of
this year, or deny them use of
equipment and weapons system
that are already in South Viet
nam. I did not suport this amend
ment and It was defeated toy a
wide margin.
, 1 have had a great deal of
. mail both favorable and opposing
' legislation to “set a date to end
the war in Vietnam.” There are
numerous bills and legislative
proposals which have ibeen in-
; tro.,uced calling for the with
drawal of United States forces
'from Southeast Asia iby Decem
ber 31, 1971, or some other date.
-The people of the nation are
Hooking to the Congress as well
I as to the President for dear
! guidance and leadership to ex-
; tricate our armed forces from
this war-torn country. It is easy
to criticize the President. It is
easy to second-guess him as he
j is attempting to end the righting
and to reduce the actual num-
! hers of United States troops in-
i volvej in South Vietnam.
I I feel that the South Vietna
mese have made progress in their
ability to handle their own af-
I fairs and to assume the major
' burden of expelling the enemy
from their country. I also feel
that President Nixon has set us
, ■an a definite course of withdraw:
il of our forces and that be
j should be given d.;e credit for
having taken the initiative to re
duce our troop levels and turn
ing the fighting over to the
South Vietnamese troops. Re-
gar.lless of any action the Con-
gre.ss may take, the President, on
his own initiative, had cut troop
levels in half, and by this fall
less than a third of the number
of troops in Vietnam when be
took office will remain.
No one is for the war. Every-
wants to get out as quickly as pos’
sible, but setting a Congressional
tim limit may ot be the way to
permanent peace in Vietnam. I
sympathize wholeheartedly with
the goal of endinig our involve-

I Winston-Salem — The nintlh
j session of the Governor’s School
1 of North Carolina began Sunday,
I June 20, with the arrival of 374
I rising juniors and seniors from
^ North Carolina high siehools. The
School is again being held on the
[ campus ot Salem College.
James Grafton Withers is the
son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Fred With-
ere of Kings Mountain. He is a
ment there as soon 'as possible,
and I have communicated this
feeling to the President. I be
lieve that Congress does have a
right and also responsibility to
give the president as well as the
nation some clr r direction on
what our fundamental policy
sho.I'.i be. 'But the setting of a
date certain ignores the plight
of our prisoners of war and the
fact that 'fighting still -continues.
If the Congress is to legislate
in this field, I would far rather
see us face up to our responsi
bility and support a resolution
which would insure the return of
cur prisoners and call for a
ceasefire and withdrawal of all
foreign troops rom South Viet
nam. During the datebate last
week, I s.pported an amendment
that woulct have called for rc ci-
rrocal action on the part cf the
North Vietnam to bring an eni to
al of the fighting. This amend
ment called for a date of with
drawal cf all America forces pro
vided that all prisoners of war
were released and returned end
that a cease-fire was effected.
Such a declaration by Congress
woul'l be a clear indication to
‘Hanoi that the North Vietnamese
must take some initiative to end
the fighting.
Unfortunately, unilateral action
on the part of the United States
is not the whole answer. As dis
cussion of this issue continues, I
believe that responsible Congres
sional leadership dan be provid
ed. In the final analysis, any
lastin-r peace in South Vietnam
will depend on the action of all
parties involved, not just the
United States
THE ALL-AMERICAN
ROBIN
Is there anyone in this icoun-
try who has never heard a rob
in’s song? probaibly not. even If
it wasn't recognized, for all our
soiigibirds the robin is the most
widespread. Al'l summer the rob
ins are busy in dooryard, 'pas

ern and middle states from coast
to coast. All winter they are
seen throughout the South. Many
of them winter dn the thickets
and marshes of the North, but

School, he is concentrating his
studies in Natural Science.
The Department of Public In
struction, under the director of
Dr. A. Craig Phillips, sponsors the
experimental school for academic
ally and artistically talented boys
j and girls. Simultaneously, the
! .state-sponsored Teacher-Training
Institute is being held, with 27
teachers from throughout the
state in attendance. Under the
direction of Robert Knott, these
teachers will .work with the Gov
ernor’s School faculty and student
body as and in-service training
program in the teaching of the
gifted.
At the 1971 Governor’s School
will be 147 boys and girls study
ing the performing arts: art, dra
ma, instrumental music, chorus,
and piano; 227 will concentrate
in the academic disciplines: Eng
lish, French, mathematics, natur
al science, and social science.
The special goal of the Gov
ernor’s School is to enable the
student to see the relationship be
tween the artistic and academic
disciplines. Theory, especially
20th century theory, is stressed
as thfe students are .solutions to
today’s problems. James L. Bray,

Curriculum, have been meeting

The' American robin is a thrush
■cousin of 'brown thrasher, wood
thrush and mockingbird. Indeed,
the robin can be a good mimic,
too, though it has an excellent
repertoire of songs all Jls own.
RWbln songs are the basic melo
dies of the dawn chorus of bird
song in many plaices.
Though, not really domestic
birds, robins like dooryards as
nesting places and lawns for for-
agiug. They are the most com
mon birds of the American suib-
uPbs all spring, summer and
early autumn. Thorou.'hly adapt
able, they also will thrive in a
city park, will nest on a cornice
ledge If need be, and will live on
either fruit or insects. 'But the
country is the robin’s natural
habitat. Particularly the fence-
