Our Comment Mulroy's The Man What is it like to live in a triple A county'* It means the traditional county work, such an crime prevention, human services and road lm provements are handled without much fanfare, in fact in such a superior way that you hardly ever hear about them. It means that the services that make Onondaga County a desirable place to live are at your doorstep. . .parks, the Civic Center, and -a gTeat educational institution, Onondaga Community College. It means that major projects such an the new Van Duyn Hospital for the Aging, the new metro sewage treatment plant, and the proposed pen 1 ten tiary are given thoughtful consideration and then moved to completion. It means that while taxpayers i n other counties are paying high interest rates and have limited financial resources, Onondaga County has the highest credit rating available and is reaping the benefit of prudent management in the form of lower bond payments that mean lower taxes 'Innovative management and improved government service to the taxpayers\ is the way John Mulroy's executive abilities are dest nbed bv the National Assn of Counties That's the group that awarded eight top prizes to Onondaga (*>untv for programs that serve and save for the Mx pa yers All in all, Onondaga County is the pace setter < >fficials from other parts of the state and nation « ome to Onondaga County to learn how to manage their municipalities better They come to consult John Mulroy because he has been successful in the past 17 years in leading a growing, vital com munity It is Mulroy who makes the difference Election Day is a chance to renew support of the leadership that has been responsible for the stability and quality of life Onondaga Count\ residents enjov todav MuIn>\ s th e man Missing i! v.'u uMetu'd i loseK Mond.iv night \>'U r• • -.• r• 1 l'r«\sidrnt ( .irt*T usr all the ol d phrase*, ih.it me.in -olittlt t-iih.ni. ing our intelligence t apability, bating up forces'' and \assurances given me \ l 'hes* words all mask the impact of the facts \•xiviet tones in Cuba are exporting their n v olutionurv Uu tn s throughout the Caribbean, to \irn.i and bevond. treating a threat to smaller governments everywhere V\ bat wa.s lai king from the ( arter speech was a lear statement on the crucial issue the date the Si i \.u-t tnxip.s will leave ( uba True Leadership Pope .John I'.iul 11 has captured headlines and hearts a» ross the world Here is a man who speaks ixtth to national leaders and to the youth, who is eleetrit v ing millions including those not of his faith As ( bnst 's Vicar on earth, he speaks in our own tpngue, never stepping backward from his stalwart position In these days when leadership and heroes are m such short supply.

They have been maintained by various members of the DeWitt fire dept • It is always interesting to see. where conventions are held For instance the National Boating Safety Advisory Council, (operating out of the Coast Guard office m Washington, D.C with news releases on the Dept. of Transportation letterhead) has chosen to meet at the Showboat Hotel in Las Vegas, Nev October 9 and 10 A look at the agenda shows they are going to discuss the need for flotation materials in canoes, vote on exempting sail boards from the personal ilotauon device requirement and hear reports on navigational light rules, ven tilation requirements and hull identification. And probably run wave tests on Lake Mead right? There will be many, I'm sure who will loudly declaim that sex education is the res ponsibibty of parents, chur i lies, and religious organizations. While these may indeed be the logical sources of values clarification, ethical assessments, and the acquisition of the information by which to make choices, this is all too often true in theory only There are many reasons given lack of knowledge on the parents' part, fear, uncer tainty as to how to handle the situation, unease or discomfort at such discussions. But the fact remains that young people have not been educated effectively in this area — and until such time as they are, more power to you, the school board, and the dis trict for being willing to as sume the responsibilities which others have not shouldered. . .\ S.E BAHNER-HARRIFF Liverpool it'ontmued o n Page 1 \< Fagle-Bulletin il'SPS IB.tiS«S0> Nntninal Blue Kjbb <'n NVwspap*\!- I ^(v ~ 1 -2 TS. ~1 \A 7*+st i T Elmer K..nonius (\.pot-ftpr Wortle-y III Publishers and I- di|..rs Barbara S Ki\ t-u«- F.xeeutivt- Krlilnr Printed and Publishe d Weekly WOBO Corp Office 200 Brookle a Or Fe»yett*ville N Y 13066 Telephone I 31 S-6.17 3121 The Manlitu Ea«le 1887 The Fayetteville Bulletin 1892 The Eafie Bulletin 1933 The DeWitt Time* 1949 Sincle Cop y 2 &c Si a month b y earner Senior Citizen* $9 a year by mail Other*.
