For many years they were the forgotten age group. Now over the: past few years a score or more agencies have sprung into existance with the an- nounced intention of cloistering the elderly to their collective bosoms and running off into the wild blue yonder. ; There is one ingredient that is most essential in our compounding nostrums to lighten our senior years - that is love and understanding. Like that which exists at the other end- of the life-span, a large part of ¢the heartaches of loneliness comes through neglect by. those who should care the most - the family. , We recognize that, as in all movements, there are a few individuals who want to occupy center- _ stage. And there certainly can be no quarrel with ' _ a program that recognizes the economic position in which many -of our senior citizens find them- _ selves. Any relief that can be given to those who : _ are no longer- able to enjoy the rewards of compen- sated labor, and must live within the limits of re- stricted incoraes, are most appreciative of any and all consideration that is given them. Most muni- cipalities have recognized this and opted to take advantage of §tate laws which permit them to make ° ' concessions to those over age 65 within prescribed income statu§g. It is much more within keeping of . human practices to it all homeowners, some of whom only have the associated memories of their long-time home to bring them moments of happi- ness in retrospect of the golden days of the grow- ing still retain their independence, rather than become the wards of the state and county through welfare grants. ~ Probably. the most rewarding thing that has come to the senior citizens is the formation of the Senior. Citizen Clubs and the provision of places of assembly. Places where they can gather together and enjoy a \pot luck\ dinner, cards, bingo, and , other recreational features, the most essential of which is being able to commune with their friends and neighbors and fill what would otherwise be idle s Wye Bae 4 evens e i> in z We are positive that with few exceptions these senior citizens want to maintain their places in the - community to the best of their abilities under the restrictions | that advanced years place on many. They don't want to be placed in the category of having to be \nursed.\ They realize that once their. pride in Tfifiiméfid‘ence is lost they are victims of a phobia, far more enervating and demoralizing ~- than any other aspect of \growing old.\ ' Let us give our senior citizens every: encour- agement to a prolonged useful and happy life. But let us not fall into the trap of over-emphasizing old age and attempting to cater to needs that in many instances do: not exist; or if they do, to a degree that will not categorize them into the status of dotage.

Yet only John recalls that a boy is brought to Jesus with five loaves and two fishes. This young man was prepared for the rigors of the outdoors and the scarcity of the desert. Unfortunately, - ~ many thousands had followed Jesus into the éountryside and would face a day without food unless someone came forth. _ Ap s .z h / ,' Christ's concern for the people is joined with this young man's sharing of all he had. Jesus prayed, offering a blessing upon the food and the needs of the multitude. All four Gospels réport that \everyone had enough.\ Throughout Christian history, the Spirit of Christ has taken what people of- fered and multiplied far beyond their ex- pectations.

Kuzmack of the | By WARREN L. NELSON WASHINGTON - (UPD{-Con- gressional critics of the milita- ry, who have long been gunning for the Navy's billion f@ollar carrier and F14 fighter,] have gotten help from an unexpected quarter. ‘ In the current issue of Military Review, a professional Army journal published by the prestigious command and ge- neral staff college at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan., contains an article saying aircraft egrriers camel | Rvoromen blication . are now largely outmoded. . Even in the interservice rivalry that never ends, an unwritten rule decrees that the services don't take pot shots at one another in public. Military Review makes clear that its articles reflect opinions that \are the authors' and not necessarily those of the U.S. Army'' but the fact remains that the editors have used the magazine as a vehicle to strike at the Navy. The article was written by PEOPLE'S FORUM i h (Free expression is the mark of a progressive ¢om- munity. This column| be- longs to Journal - Register readers to set forth their views. Letters should be as brief as possible and must be signed in the writers' own hand). To The Editor: f I wish to make my position re- garding school discipline (clear. I feel the basic problem of dis- cipline in any school lies in the curriculum. Unless changes are m; sehool curriculum, discipli always be a problem. We must make school a students want to be, not al place where students are forced jto be. \ To The Editor: ‘ Your editorial of Februgry 22 entitled, \Dairying Dirty Word\ reeks with errors, as any | good dairyman would be swift to tell you. It's a pity that you did not interrogate any farmers or| their sons before you stuck your foot in your. mouth. A 'better de in! e will place any either. , Most of our boys (Yes! I boys ARE \ours\!) who them have been hurt sev and too often irrevocably by so- called . \adults'\. Very few of those boys have ever known the meaning of a \happy home'\. The word \love\ is all too |often something they know nothing about. When a boy is hurt, he's very likely to at least ty to strike back,. and hurt someone or something. t . A cow is a defenseless animal for all it's great size. Cattle who are misused, ill-fed and not taken care of properly are ex- pensive because they are unpro- ductive. To buy cattle for a group of boys to take their hos- tilities out on, would be a|most foolish move. This is qgite a switch for me, but for once in my life, I must agree with Dr. try State School and I've been the wife of a dairy farmer for over 18 years. As far as I'm. concerned personally, your \irate urbanites\ would do well to keep their mouths shut unless and until they know what they're talking about! I'm convinced, from reading your editorial, that your urbanites know nothing at all about cattle or about the boys at Industry State School. If all the irate taxpayers would take a trip to Industry School and just visit with those boys, they'd be in for one whale of an education they'd never forget. I've been there many, many times, None of those boys are incorrigible. _ This family once found a home for one of Industry's boys. The lad had been literally dumped there by parents who had adopt- ed him and then later had a ._ child of their own. Our laws are not geared for the safety and protection of children. This boy went on from 16 wasted years at - Industry to achieve an honorable discharge from the Marine Corps. No, those boys aren't \too - good\ to milk cows, but neither are they \to bad\. If you have any illusions about those boys at Industry being \coddled\, you can forget that too. The \crimes\ those boys have committed are a result of parental neglect and the uncaring attitudes of our \'Christian'\ community leaders. I live for the day when all re- formatories are torn down and replaced by Half-Way Houses where these mixed-up kids can recéive the care, understanding and guidance they so desperate- ly need. - Sincerely yours, MARILYN C.

[McNamara's days as defense secretary. He was deputy director of the Naval Forces Division from 1966 to 1970. THat division is an analytici bureau situated in the defense secretary's office, not in the} Navy. Kuzmack said he originally submittep the article to the Naval Institute Proceedings, a private, professional and préesti- gious magazine of the Navy. He said his manuscript rejected there. There gre now 16 U.S. Navy carriers | (the Soviets have none) an? the Navy is seeking funds to , build a- new, fourth nuclear carrier that would probably cost $1 billion and be the most expensive ship afloat. The Military Review article takes on the whole carrier principle, charging that changed times have reduced the importance of carriers. Kuzmack's piece says: -Satellite photography has reduced | the ability of the carrier to hide out in the vast seas and avoid detection. -Maintaining planes on car- riers costs 20 to 25 per cent more than basing them on land. -Air-to-surface missiles and submarines, which can travel faster than the carriers, make carriers more vulnerable than before. 'At the same time new knowledge about aircraft shel- ters and rapid repair of runways makes it easier to protect planes on land bases.
