Back in her childhood days, I used to fancy that by the time my daughter finished college I would be a personage of such prominence that I would be invited to deliver the com- - mencement address. Frankly, it didn't work out that way. Owing mainly to a lot of bad breaks. You couldn't believe all the rotten luck I've had, but these two recent examples will give you an idea: 1.

A major villain in the piece obviously was the Vietnam War. President Nixon is under pressure from American agri- culture and industry, both of which see the Soviet Union as a rich new market. Further pressure arises from the administration's own urgent attempts to expand the Ameri- can economy. The Soviet Union is under increasing pressure from its own people for a vast increase in consumer goods and is eager to make use of American technology to help bring it about. Both have it within their power to fulfill the other's needs. Need American Credits On their side, the Soviets need American credits and restoration - of their favored nation's status which would relieve the tariff on Soviet products shipped - into the United States. Among the stumbling blocks are these: The continuing failure of the two sides to reach agreement on settlement of the Soviet Union's World War II debt of $10.8 billion under Lend-Lease. After reaching stalemate in 1960, negotiations were resumed in recent weeks, in time, it was hoped for agreement in ad- vance of the summit. In 1960, the United States was asking $800 million in total settlement Adirondacks 'Blue Line' Extended ALBANY, N. Y. (UPD- Another 250,000 acres were put within the Adirondacks' \Blue Line,\ under a bill signed by Governor Rockefeller Wednes- day. The bill, protecting the new area under the \forever wild\ clause of the state constitution, moves the line east to the center of Lake Champlain, in- cluding Valcour Island, and west and southwest for several small parcels in Hamilton and Fulton counties. Most of the new land is farm and shorefront areas in Clinton and Essex counties. \These additions to the park constitute a significant enhace- ment of a priceless and irre- placeable natural treasure,\ Rockefeller said. The measure was recommended by the Study Commission on the Future of the Adirondacks. Under \forever wild”!develop- ment in the area is strictly controlled.

Combined with the Soviet 'Baby Lenore' Adoption Bill Becomes Law ALBANY, N.Y. (UPI) - The \Baby Lenore'' bill giving a mother only 30 days to change her mind after giving up a child for adoption was signed into law by Governor Rocke- feller Wednesday. The bill, by Assemblyman Joseph R. Pisani, R - New Rochelle, grew out of the controversy over the child given to Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas De Martino of Brooklyn. The couple fled to Florida when the child's natural mother, Olga Scarpetta, won a court ruling that the girl be returned to her after living with the De Martinos for one year. Miss Scarpetta is continuing her legal fight in Florida. Under the new law, a parent has 30 days to reconsider after giving up a child to an agency or for private adoption. The period begins with execu- tion of the surrender agreement or placement of the child in a foster home, whichever is later. After expiration of the 30 days, only a showing of fraud, duress or coercion would enable the natural parent. to seek custody. During the 30 day period, courts must determine appropri- ate disposition without applying any presumption in favor of either the natural parents or the prospective - adoptive parents. The best interests of the child must be the court's sole consideration. - \The bill is designed to add a measure of finality to sur- renders and consents for adop- tion in order to protect all toncerned from the harmful effects of a lengthy period of uncertainty - permitted - under existing law,\ Rockefeller said. \At the same time, it assures that the child's best interests will be served.\ The governor noted that the Citizens Committee for Children and several child welfare organ- izlallltions urged approval of the Rockefeller vetoed a similar bill last year, causing Pisani to change the wording. PEOPLE'S FORUM (Free expression is the mark of a progressive com- 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: Memorial Day should and rightfully does hold a high place in every American's heart. However, in our patriotic fervor, let us not lose sight of what we are honoring; that is the victims of war everywhere, not war it- self. These victims include all those unfortunate German, Japanese and American soldiers killed in the last World War. That includes all Japanese civilians vaporized in Nagasaki and Hiroshima, all those Germans . killed in the bombing of Berlin. Included also are all those Vietnamese villagers killed by American bombs and Russian mortars. And also included are all Americans injured in protest . at home. War knows no bounds for its destruction. Let us honor all human beings the world ever touched in some way by war. Let us also work fervently toward the day when we will no longer need any more Memorial Days. . MARKMURPHY Medina To The Editor: I heartily endorse the goals of the Walk-A-Thon, This does raise money for a worthy program. However, I would suggest a different approach to the Walk- A-Thon which I believe would provide a better community service. - Walking is fine, but frankly speaking, it serves no practical purpose. Why not have the people who walk and are sponsored accomplish a useful activity for the community. My suggestions are these: (1) Walk a shorter distance -- pick up trash, beer cans, etc., along the highways. . (2) Plant some trees along the highways, if permissable. (3) Where appropriate, plant some flowers along the roadside. (4) Beautify and enhance the roadside in any way possible. Some complications may arise from the suggestions I have made, but it wwldseem that all the energy expended just for the sake of walking could be better utilized for' ecology and beautification and probably warrant a greater sponsorship than exists at present. | RAYMOND C.
