Poor Behavior

On October %, about l pm,
I was standing in line at the
Kensington Armory to apply for
a drivers license. Immediately
in front of me in the line was a
teen-age boy, whom the clerk
was addressing as Punk"
Punk was not the boys
name; but the clerk addressed
him that way four times while
l was listening.
Deciding whether or not a
boy is punk is no job of a
State employee. Punk" is an
offensive term, and should not
be used to address any person
quietly complying with the law
in requesting a license. That
clerk was wearing a uniform
like a policeman's. The expert.
ence will do nothing to increase
the boys regard for policemen
and authority in general.
Cop" is a less offensive term
than punk" But there is no
question that if the boy had
ever once addressed the clerk
as Cop" he'd have been in
trouble, right then.
Even though not involved my
self, found the situation dis
turbing, and l feel that such be.
havior by a uniformed state EN-
ploye is inexcusable.

Worthy Cause

Last Sunday an anonymous
person mailed in Rockville one
of the most malicious assem-
blages of distortion, insinua-
tons, character assassinations,
and hypocrisy which has come
across my desk since the pass
ing of the late Senator Nc

omous attack is the "Trick or
Treat for UNICEF" program,
and more particularly the par
ticipation of the churches in this
great humanitarian program,
which, in addition to the aid
it has provided for needy chill
dren and mothers throughout
the world, has also helped to
transform Halloween from a
night of vandalism and begging
into an occasion when children
can combine wholesome tradi-
tional fun and concern for
all the worlds children.
The Rockville Ministerial AL
lance has endorsed this pro-
gram for the past two years.
The Mayor has issued a procla-
nation urging support of the

program, as have various other
civic groups within our commu-
nifty. I feel confident that the
citizens of Rockville will con-
slider the source of these malic-
ious attempts at deception and
will follow the lead of the he.

leaders of this community and
of the nation. We will join with

Quarles Asks Firmness
Deputy Defense Secretary
Quarles yesterday told the
meeting our country's best Sc
curity lies in standing firm
against aggressorS threatening
world peace.
Our best security lies in the
determination to stand firm, to
be strong and to make it clear
to all that we will be steadlast
in protecting our freedom
against Communist aggression
in any form" he said.
He said, I'VE often speak Of
the deterrent might of our re-
taliatory forces. This is an
essential ingredient of our Sc
curity in this dangerous age
and it is also essential that
others know about these forces.
But it is the will of our peo-
pie to stand firm that is the
final test. a will that must be
based on their inner convic-
tons about spiritual values and
on their faith in the moral
and ethical principles that you
! as chaplains) teach"
Sees Higher Esteem
DR.. Elson in his presidential
address today told the gather
| ing that the record of service
and heroiSm in the recent wars
has lifted the military chaplain
to an elevation of public esteem
and personal appreciation by
Americans which should give
every chaplain abiding salts
faction.
More than 10000 clergymen
in the lifetime of most of us
here have voluntarily given
their religious services to pa
rishioners in uniform" he said.
