The money that business, industrial and professional people invest with New Industries will return many-fold. This $92,000 is the seed from which new businesses and industries will grow ond flourish. And all in the county will reap the benefits. A new or expanded industry in Rouses Point helps the whole area; so does one in Plattsburgh or Keeseville. Consider Arpak Plastics Inc., brought in by the Chomplain Develop- ment Corp. and New Industries. In September this year, it had 39 employes with full production for 24- hours a day, seven days a week. Its next step fs two more mochines by the end of the year, each machine will mean 4 more men hired and pos- sibly on additional four women over- oU. Of the 39 present employes, two Oft from Willsboro, 1 from Ellenburg Depot, 15 from Plattsburgh, 6 from Morrisonville, 2 from Peru, 5 from West Chazy, 2 from Schuyler Falls, 2 from Rouses Point, 2 from Altono, 1 from Peosleeville, t from Codyville. Arpok plans to move into longer qijorttrs within two years- Who can doubt that the wide geographical dis- tribution of its employes means that the whole county is benefiting from the work end money poured into the county by Arpak. The *qme holds true for Detogar In Rouses Point, Cartstrop in Peai, Barde of Keeseville and the other bus* inesses that Chomploin Development ond New Industries hove helped bring *w agencies hove *ff*ody jp new plants totaling more $1,000,000 in capital Imest- ^Sf^f* 3BJSF pMjph # ot o constfrattve And In from one to f II of Chomplain Development. It needs the $92,000 so that three industries vital to the future of this orea con expand, ccn grow, con keep on .pro-- viding this county with jobs, with pay- rolls, with on increasing flow of money poured bock into grocery stores, ser- vice stations, clothing stores or what have you. New Industries seeks the $92,000 to help finance more than $500,000 in new construction for three expand- ing businesses. The Small Business Administration and the New York Job Authority will help by putting up 80 per cent of the $500,000 these firms, Delogar, Caristrap and Barde need. These firms are in Rouses Point, Peru znd Keeseville. Bt* they hire workers who live all over the county, and in 18 months they have almost 600 jobs among them. New Industries and Chomplain Development have done a great deal to help this county grow and prosper. We have great faith in the potential ond prospects of Clinton County. You can show your own fa.th and confid- snee by'investing \n its futuer. New Industries is offering you a chance.

Under the leadership of A Piatt Andrew, m.eresi in this project was created IT. the L'ruled States More ambulances *ere bought arxl more volunteers were enlisted, until more than 2.500 Americans were serving with French divisions w all fronts. Between the wars AFS contini>ed as an organization, pro- viding funds for a small exchange program at the university level between the United States and France. Upon the death of Mr Andrew in 1936. he was succeeded as director general by Stephen Gaiatti. who had been second- in-command of the Field Service during the war. In 1939. the AFS ambulance corps again was activated. During World War II it served in Burma. North Africa, Italy, and France, and carried over a million wounded soldiers in this time. At first AFS just brought college and university students to the United States. But in 1947 it was suggested that maybe this understanding could be created as well, or better, with somewhat younger people—about the last year of school in the U.S. So Mr. Gaiatti decided to bring over a small number (ll^lcutee «vhat would happen. And this is what happened . , . This year we have 3.110 gtudents from 57 different countries in the U. S. In addition, this past summer 867 American AFS students went abroad on the Summer Program and 353 went abroad on the School Pro- gram. So in 19 years this idea has grown from 17 students to 4.320. All together, 37.740 students have taken part, or are tak- ing part, in it. _ EVALON A. MERRITT President Plattsburgh Chapter, American Field Service Student Council head backs new school plan TO THE EDITOR: As a student of Chazy Central Rural School and of our beautiful but deteriorated building, I feel as though our towns people should know bow the students feel. After all we do go to school here. Ask yourself: If the new school is not put through, where will we get the money to repair our present school, and to add a new gym. lab. and classrooms. The Miner Foundation will withdraw their million - dollar grant, the state aid *ill be de- creased greatly. Then where will we be? Worse off than we would be if we build the new school. It is costing our town three to four times as much as other schools, to maintain our present school. Do the people rea- lize the top two floors are condemned as a fire hazard? Would you want your child to be caught in a tragic fire, just because you wanted to keep our historical school? If the top two floors were shut off, this then would mean we would have to build a new cafeteria, library, study hall, and additional new class- rooms. Those who have sentimental feeling for our historical building must be reminded, we already have a museum in Chazy, and a bell tower and a reflection pool are going to be built with the new school. Is our town going to let sentiment rule over logic, reality and common sense n Is our community losing its grip on reality? Or maybe it isn't our community. Maybe it's just a few people who make an awful lot of noise. Is our community that afraid of progress* Would you want to dodge raindrops or suddenly find yourself studying in the dark? Doesn't our town owe its children the best ia educa- tion? Or will it let us, the students, be faced with the task of building a new school ten years from now? Our education can be better fortified if we had better facilities. Anyone with logic realizes if modern equipment and teaching facilities are used, it serves as an inspiration for students to work harder and enjoy school. Which in turn belpe the student to reach his goals and Jets him set higher ones to better his education. Do you call this a trick? Our community trying to give us the best in education. Do you think this so called proper management can over- come the fact we will lose our financial aid** Can it overcome the fact of repairs and maintenance? Or the top two ftbors being condemned? I feel that we are being cheated out of something we deserve. Will our parents and fellow towns people let us down? Will we have to keep going to school in a historical museum? Will our towns people let iogic and reason pass by and follow the sentimentalists and noise makers?

The Anu-Povertv Program was never intended to remedy all the enu&es ol poveru ad infinitum, but rather to find the causes, heip the people involved to find *ays to help themselves, and to stunuJate and assist existing agencies to find more effective ways of ex:ending their services. Therefore the \Dismember- ment*' these gentlemen speaJt of is nothing more than the Pro- gram proceeding according to Plan. Adult basic education has a.*a>s been the responsibility of HEW iwith supplementary funds offered recently by OEO for recruitment, teacher train- ing and salaries. etc>. Work Experience Programs have always had to come through the cooperative efforts of the Department of Labor and the Department of Public Welfare —< with additional fuods of- fered by the OEO since 1964) and so it goes through the other programs. Neighborhood Youth Corps will become a program of the Department of Labor — and rightly so — as Head Start will progress into HEW. But these programs are researched by OEO — tried and proven with Anti-Poverty funds — and will become part of the American scene because they have been shown to be instrumental in eliminating some of the basic caus- es of poverty. JAMES F. MELLON, Director Joint Council for Economic Opportunity of Plattsburgh and Clinton County, Inc. Raises questions about welfare appointment TO THE EDITOR: Regarding the November 16 account of the appointment of the new Essex County Commissioner of Public Welfare, several questions remain that should be an- swered for the benefit of the public. One: Why not appoint the senior caseworker who, accord- ing to the present commissioner, is qualified bv education and experience? T*o: Why appoint someone who evidently is not qualified under the existing law? Three: Why didn't the Board of Supervisors accept the recommendation of the Boord's welfare committee? Since the welfare budget constitutes such a large portion of the county budget, the taxpayers of Essex County have a right to expect the most qualified applicant for the job. JAMES W. PAUL Jr. Westport Grave injustice to tear down Chazy Rural school TO THE EDITOR: As a new member of the community I would like to express my sentiments on the bond issue for construction of a new school in the town of Chazy. The one we have at present is to me one of the most beautiful and imposing structures in this North Country and to demolish it for the sake of a more modern edifice is'a grave injustice and insult to our intelligence. I find it hard to believe that our school is overcrowded or substandard in any way. I don't see whv renovation of the present structure where needed, would be \such a problem to the tax payers. If one takes pride in possession, things are not allowed to deteriorate to the point where you just forget them or throw them out. If the school needs repairs and new wiring, I'm sure local contractors would welcome the opportunity to do something for the benefit of the community. Why destroy something we should be justly proud of? Let's keep our school and take a greater interest in seeing that it is properly maintained. MRS.
