We are sure that if such a g were form- ed in every township that they would find areas for concern where they perhaps thought none exist- ed before. . Such a citizens organization where a real abid- ing concern is given to the matters of town opera- tion, or any other municipality as far as that is concerned, is welcomed by officials. The public in general pays too little attention to affairs that affect their living and only start to scream to high heaven when they find something has taken place for which they object. An honest interest, one not motivated just to be \anti\ relative to any proposal, results in good government. Something that every . honest public official /%’]@m¢enwd with as every private citizen WE KNOW WHO THE PIGS ARE One does not have to go outside of New York City to see what the civilization and culture of the . nation would be if the hippies, radicals, Commun- ists, far-out liberals and like-minded persons took over the country. We have in New York a large laboratory demonstration of the future as they en- vision it. The latest indication can be viewed on the Columbia University campus, where students and outsiders raised in the permissive way of life have vandalized the facade of a beautiful new building opened in 1971, the School of International Affairs. - Large statements crudely painted in red (the letter- ing leans drunkenly) attack Professor Andrew Cor- dier, dean of the school, and praise Mao as a hero. Other indications of things to come if the nation should go irrevocably to the people who call policemen \pigs\ are also present on the campus. Only a few years ago it was a pretty area in a de- teriorating’tfistrict. There were many grass-cover- ed quadrangles bordered 'by hedges or flowers. Now most of the quadrangles have been trampled into mud or dust, and those which are green are under attack. . The defacement of other areas of the city goes on apace. The subways are beit steadily polluted and silted up by the graffiti of the illiter- ate and nearly illiterate. If this is the handwriting on the wall, we are in serious trouble. 00 e = '= Michigan Primary: Wallace Is Giving - Senators Jitters _- By BRUCE BIOSSAT 7 ~_ DETROIT (NEA) Alabama's Gov. George Wallace is, in his own mind, so serious a candidate for the presidency that he doesn't have to say so any more. Charged up for Michigan's May g Democratic primary, he leaves that out and just acts the part. 'Things have gone so well for him here a couple of times that he has held an evening doubleheader, giving two speeches back to back to take care of overflow crowds. Not since Florida has he had his rivals so jittery. Here we are in Michigan, where Democratic party politics is supposedly progressive, issue-oriented, influenced heavily by powerful United Auto Workers' leaders and others in - labor. But Sens. Hubert Humphrey and George McGovern treat the place as if it were a giant suburb of Tallahassee. Even in a year when predictions are so hazardous, fore- casts of a Wallace victory in Michigan are easy to come by. You can, of course, find some cagey appraisers who say he'll be caught and passed, most likely by Humphrey. Wallace himself, taken lately to offering reporters finely tuned analyses, suggests he might drop a little here by voting time. You'd never guess he felt that if you watched him per- form, as I did again the other evening in Flint. He was more fired up than in Florida, where he knew he was going to win big. His partisans, packing the floor and four tiers of bal- -conies in Flint's auditorium, cheered lustily as he an- nounced his Tennessee primary victory. They'd been revved up by the Rev. George Mangum, Wallace's chesty master of ceremonies, who told them they were going to be on live television. C On stage in the supporting cast for the evening were a - released prisoner of war from Vietnam, John Sexton, and one Caleb Smallwood, who carried a little cardboard box filled with the names of 4,700 Wallace backers. | Wearing a large white and red paper flower on his lapel, Wallace told his fans he was going to the Democratic convention at Miami Beach with \more delegates than meet the eye.\ | The fact is that halfway through the 23 primaries plenty meets the eye. « | His speech was his usual flamboyant blast against Dem- ocratic party candidates and spokesmen who he says have \kowtowed to exotic noisemakers and elitists and ignored the average citizen.\ | ‘ - Flint's average citizens rose happily from their red plush chairs as he told them: ee - ~ \You are the ones. You are the kings and queens of American politics today. The average man has more: - political clout than ever before,. Because of these 1972 primary results.\ _-_ The gavel-nor, mindful of studies a fihfle back ihat show ~~ many Michigan voters moved almost to hysteria in oppo- sition to school busing for racial balance, thundered the obvious: He has got more issue stands to their liking than any of his primary rivals. _ Of them he said: \They're too busy taxing the average - man to death and giving the money to a bunch of welfare loafers and Hottentots (foreign aid).\ Wallace was so flushed with the sense of triumph (an- other primary win in North Carolina was looming) that he couldn't slip into his favored clownish vein even when telling his standard anecdotes. _ _ - 1 A serious candidate must look the part. So he told his jokes like a scowling Jack Anderson disclosing another tch of secret papers. \ , 2. But still the funny stuff scored. Wallace is some kind of threat and he'll be tough to beat in Michigan. (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.) o o o a o 0.0, ident Nixon could hasten progress toward establishment of diplomatic relations with Peking by removing from School Bus Measure Passed ALBANY, N. Y. (UPI) islation stemming from the tragic school bus-train crash in Congers, Rockland County, in which five - students - died, unanimously passed the Senate Wednesday night. The measure, sponsored by Sen. John D. Caemmerer, R- East Wiliston, would require school buses to use only ap- proved crossings unless specific- ally exempted by the commis- sioner of education. It was passed without debate and sent to the Assembly. The measure would require that school buses cross railroad tracks only at crossing protected by electronic gates, by a mem- ber of the train crew, with bells and lights, or with a railroad crossing guard. o cl d ien File BUFFALO, N.Y. (UPI) - A $9,474 tax lien has been filed against J. Lloyd Walker, the government's chief witness in the bribery - conspiracy con- viction of two former Erie County legislators. The Internal Revenue Service said Wednesday that Walker owed the amount in personal income taxes for 1970. The IRS declined to reveal the basis of the lien, but indicated Walker did file a 1970 return. Walker, of suburban Grand Island, was the star prosecu- tion witness in the trial of Frank C. Ludera and Frederick F. Pordum, who were convicted last June of conspiring to solicit bribes in connection with the county's domed stadium proj- ect. Walker was the project en- gineer. Both former legislators began serving their three-year prison sentences . after. surrendering Wednesday to U.S. Marshals at - the federal courthouse. ,. Taiwan as soon as possible all U.S. military forces engaged in logistic support of the Vietnam operation. That is the view of a veteran former US. foreign service officer, Robert W. Barnett, who now is head of the Washington office of the Asia Society. He believes that limiting American military personnel on Taiwan to those advising Chiang Kai-shek on purely local defense would help create an atmosphere in which the Peoples Republic of China and the Nationalist regime on the island could negotiate a settlement of their differences. | - Mutual economic advantage and ethnic solidarity, in Bar- nett's opinion, could overcome differences in ideology. A Barnett, China-born son of missionary parents, served in the diplomatic service in China and subsequently in Washing- ton, where he was deputy assistant secretary of. state for East Asia before quitting to take his present post. In a recent statement before House Foreign Affairs subcom- mittee, Barnett emphasized he believed the United States must honor its 1954 defense commit- ment to Chiang Kai-shek. To do otherwise, he said, not only would damage American credi- bility in the eyes of its allies but would be regarded by Peking as evidence of instabili- ty in U.S. policy. & Peking, while making it clear to Nixon that it would not use force to settle the Taiwan issue, told him there could be no formal diplomatic relations between Peking and Washing- ton while the security treaty with Taiwan was in effect. Barnett said he believes that the Nationalist government on Taiwan itself eventually would ask that the American defense commitment be terminated once it begins to move to what he considers an inevitable political rapprochement with Peking. Barnett's scenario is based on the assumption that the Chinese on the mainland and those on Taiwan will find themselves impelled by mutual advantage to find some accommodation. \If Peking . knows that Washington will not terminate The Lighter Side By DICK WEST United Press International 4 WASHINGTON (UPD) - Dr. Luigi V. Populi, the distin- guished political scientist and humanitarian, stopped by my desk and handed me philosophical bumper - sticker. \STOP THE PRIMARIES!\ it said. I said, \Is this some new cause you are promoting in your tireless crusade for a better world tomorrow?\ \This is the beginning of a nationwide protest against the barbaric extermination of American presidential candi- dates,\ he replied. o. \Do you have any idea what the casualty rate from this year's primaries has been thus far?\ I admitted I had not seen the latest body count, but I agreed the toll was high. Asked to Sign Petition _ \I am asking you to sign this petition demanding an imme- diate halt to the primaries as a means of ending the senseless and tragic | destruction . of candidates,\ Populi said. I said, \Every decent Ameri- can has been appalled by the devastation wreaked upon Lind- say, Hartke, Muskie and Jackson.. But in the long run the primaries may be the most humane way of thinning out the herd. . ''Without some preliminary elimination process, the candi- dates would savagely destroy each other at the national convention this summer.\ Populi shook his head. \If you had stood with me and watched the refugees streaming back from New Hampshire, Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio, their campaigns in ruins, you wouldn't say that. \'Subjecting the candidates to such torment and anguish can only be viewed as another dark chapter in American history. Civilization itself is at stake.\ I said, \What is your counter- proposal?\ - -~ ~ \Unconditional cancellation of the remaining primaries and an internationally supervised with- Wt fizmdates from ._ _ Ne Humiliation Involved \'These are terms which a would not require surrender and humiliation on the part of anybody. They would permit the candidates to withdraw with honor and: avoid further car- nage and. needless financial disaster.\ L I said, \I recognize that you are following the dictates of your conscience and I appre- ciate the high sense of morality behind the movement. But I'm afraid it comes too late. \'The 1972 campaign has already reached the point of contention where any pacifica- tion program is foredoomed. A victor must emerge from the crucible of the primaries. Those are the hard realities.\ ° Populi, however, remains idealistically convinced that some sort of political settle- ment is possible.

He noted that Premier Chou En-lai, in talks with visiting journalists, has said that he and Chiang are agreed on one point -'\'There can be only one China -so a way could be found.\ Barnett says that Peking and Taiwan have reason to admire the other in some respects. Peking must be impressed by Taiwan's spectacular industrial growth and its great success in foreign trade, Barnett said. \Similarly Chinese on Tai- wan must entertain some pride and even envy -of Peking’s recent achievements in bringing China from its knees to its feet, in its mastery of nuclear art, and even in some of the vast agriculture and industrial gains it has brought for China's population of 800 million.\ The two regimes, once they begin talking to each other, \will devote close attention to whether and how their differing systems can be made to coexist for mutual advantage,\ accord- ing to Barnett. sep _ , File Features Interesting Bits Taken From Files of The Medina Daily Journal Medina Register Five Years Ago | Paul Blackburn, seeking re- election to the Medina Board of Education} Orleans County applies to U.
