There is a need to promote a program of recreation that will serve each community as a unit within itself. Such a program could be designed to be available to each and every citizen within the boundaries of the city. When considering the economics of such programming, there is clearly a need for great expenditure of funds. Such an expenditure of funds require an understanding of source of such funds. If we can find fimds to try in our courts and to incarcerate criminals, we can surely find funds for positive recreational programs.
Funds provided for recreation give greater return than prisons and correctional institutions.
A great part of the crimes committed in today's society are the fruits of an unhealthy society. It is past time for us to find ways to invest in people to such an extent that boys and girls can grow up with minds that are healthy enough to build strong futures. Boys and girls should be allowed to be children until they have completed high school. The pressures placed on families today resulting from a devaluation of the dollar are truly debilitating. Those who live by greed and prey on others in an effort to build monuments to themselves create a most unhealthy environment for all.
