Alcoholic Care
In District Hit

District authorities were
criticized in Congress for fail
ing to give adequate support
to the nine-year-old program
of rehabilitating alcoholics
here. it was disclosed today.
Representative Hebert, Dem
ocrat of Louisiana, asserted it
is a sad fact that we have
fallen far short of realizing
the constructive and vitality
important aims" of the con-
gresSional act which established
the Alcoholic Rehabilitation
Clinic as a branch of the Dis
trict Health Department.
Lack Of Funds
Mr.. Hebert indicated thai
while he feels the program ha.
worked well as far as it ha,
been permitted to go. it ha.
been severely handicapped
by lack of funds and clinica
staff workers.
He pointed out that the Re.
Mobilization Act provided thai
10 per cent Of the annual Ii.
cenSe fees for the manufacture
and sale Of alcoholic beverages
were to be permanently appro-
priated to finance the rehabili-
tation program. Since 1850
however. the percentage allo-
Gated to the program has
dropped to 6 per cent. AS a re-
suit, he continued, less thar
$4,000 was spent last year on
salvaging alcoholics through
the District clinic, although
more than $40 million was COL
lected in liquor taxes during
the year.
Lists Main Needs
Among the principal needs,
Mr.. Hebert told the House,
are these:
!. Hiring more psychiatrists
psychologists and social workers
as well as a health educator tc
promote temperance. At pres.
ent, he pointed out, the full
time staff now consists of two
pSychiatrists, one psychologist
three social workers and three
clerks.
2. Expansion Of impatient
hospital facilities for alcoholic,
so that they may continue Il
receive professional public car,
after they are discharged from
the present customary five-da,
drying out period in the hos.
pital.
3. Provision of more hospita
beds for the care of thes,
patients.
Mr.. Hebert, who fastened t,
point out that he personally /
not a prohibitionist but
pretty fair country two-fistet
drinker," added that the com
plete cooperation of the med
ical profession as well as Law
enforcement and social agencie,
should be enlisted to cope will

Traffic Safety
Plan Doubles
Learner Fee

The Districts Department OF
Motor Vehicles plans to in
crease the learners driving per-
NIT fee from 81 to 50 to pay
for an expanded traffic safety
education program including a
new traffic safety clinic for vio-
lators.
The expanded program would
cost about $60,500 compared
to $27, 900 now being expended
for traffic safety education.
Under the proposal outlined
in budget requests released to-
day, three additional persons
would be hired to augment the
present staff of a traffic safety
officer and one secretary.
Congress Must Act
The additional $33,517 being
sought is expected to be offset
by the increase in the learners
permit fee. The higher fee
probably will produce about
SAL 900 in additional revenue.
To change the fee. a depart
ment spokesman said. will re-
quire action by Congress.
The overall budget requested
by the department for the next
fiscal year is $1,29l,479. The
current appropriation is about
$89, 900 less.
Department officials hope to
establish the new traffic clinic
for violators who have amaSsed
three to four points under the
Districts point system. About
5000 persons would attend the
clinics courses each year. Cur
rently these violators are being
ordered to appear for personal
conferences on traffic safety.
Other traffic safety programs
would also be expanded
The police department has
been operating a traffic school
primarily for violatorS whose
driver permits have already
been revoked for having re-
ceived the limit under the point
system.
Review Of Cases
Another item requested by
the department is funds for a
specially trained permit ex-
aminer to review special cases
of applicants requesting driver
permits. These would include
drivers whose records show
they are accident-prone and
who have had their permits
suspended or revoked for vio-
lationS.
In its budget report, the
Motor Vehicle Parking Agency
noted that it plans to provide
$50 additional of street park
ing spaces during fiscal 1861
Private enterprises will also ado

James r. Hoffa will fight
every step Of the way against a
move by court-appointed mon
itors to GUST him from the
Teamsters Union presidency, in
formed sources indicated today.
An associate said Mr.. Hoffa
probably will file legal papers
in about a week opposing the
monitors request for court &C
ton leading to his removal
from Office and expulsion from
union membership.
Additional legal moves. in
GLIDING appeals to the Supreme
Court. could prolong the battle
for months. Nevertheless. sew
leral of Mr.. Hoffa's leading
critics expressed confidence that
the monitors at last have him
on the run.
In a report to District Judge
F. Dickinson Let's yesterday,
the monitors charged Mr.. Hoffa
with misusing hundreds of
thousands Of dollars of union
funds in a Florida land devel-
opment project and other trans
actions.
Unavailable
Mr.. Hoffa repeatedly was in
Chicago, and efforts to reach
him by phone were unavailing.
One Teamster source recalled
that Mr.. Hoffa denied any
wrongdoing when the Senate
Rackets Committee questioned
him about the accusations.
1t was understood that the
monitors are screening more
than 200 additional charges
against Mr.. Hoffa. They pre-
sumably chose to open their
custer campaign with the ale
cations about misuse Of funds
because they felt these charges
make a strong case.
Daniel B. Maher, Teamster
nominee on the three-man
board Of monitors, refused to
sign yesterdays report to Judge

Martin F. O'Donoghue, chair
man of the monitors, and

tor representing a group of dis
sident Teamster members.

LOVE THOSE
GRANDCHILDREN!

A wistful letter to our grand
children from an American
Citizen currently appears in an
advertisement entitled, "Do not
open until Christmas, 1890" 1t
describes the package we are
neatly wrapping for the unborn
generation we love because they
are OUR grandchildren.
And what is it we have put
up in this bundle of love? Peace
is one-we hope. The package
may blow up in our faces, but
world peace and friendship are
nevertheless our wish. There
won't be any Christmas, 1890, If
we fail.
And freedom, too, but the
grandchildren may not recognize
it. Because, says this letter to the
unborn, we are giving it along
with a parcel of Federal roads,
Federal hospitals, Federal aid to
education, a mountain Of farm
surplus, and just about everv-
thing else people could ask for
Yes, we're doing up quite a
substantial package. Our grand,
children should be delighted
Except for one other item.
"At the bottom of this heap OF
presents, you'll find a bill
the debts we're leaving you. II
isn't fair, because you didn't
select these presents-we did
We've tried not to leave the
debts, we've gone without g
lot of things to try not to,
but we couldn't make the grade
Nevertheless, we love oul
grandchildren. Think how much
we're giving them for their
Christmas of 1890! Yes, think!

workers at Ohio's northern Con-
neaut outpost on Lake Erie.
In these times so reminiscent
of the Roaring Twenties," youth
should be encouraged to slow
down and learn to know their
native land. They need the in
vitation for ack-to-nature
movement, for the opportunity
to form real, sound friendships.
Such an experience could do
much to help youth retain or
restore a proper sense Of values.
Perhaps a Buckeye Trail could
in its ideal serve as one person
envisioned the Appalachian Trail
- remote, for detachment, mar
row for chosen company, wind
ing for leisure, lonely for con-
temptation, the trail leads not
merely north and south but up
ward to the body, mind and soul
of man."
A Buckley Trail would provide
such an environment where those
who choose may aspire to a high
goal and a more useful life. And
they can have lots of fun while
they are at it.

Veterans Day 1853

ed, the bombs defused, and the loved ones
are home or safe on friendly Shores we tend
to fall into rut The rut being, "AW, it will
never happen here" Why-Why couldn't it?
1t can happen-any hour of any day, lest we
forget We must constantly be prepared, be
on guard, keep strengthening our civil de-
fense program, make everyone in the COM
munity conscience Of being prepared, and be
ready to squelch any and all persons that
wish to take our peace away.
We are too quick to forget. We forget
the men and women that have heroically de-
Tended us with no fear whatsoever as to
their lives We forget the distinguished Fly
ing Crosses, the Purple Hearts, the Medals
of Honor, the heros of yesterday. They have
been forgotten but singing idol can rock
across the nation plucking his guitar to So
called fame and no one forgets him. No one
forgets the way he combs hs hair the color
of his Shirts or his middle name How many
of us can remember one name Of Medal of
Honor receiver or just his last name even?
BY forgetting the horrible chaos of war,
by forgetting the men and women that shed
their blood, lost their limbs or lives, by falt-
ering in the process of the preservation of
peace, we can then say it was all in vain--to
be blunt, plain murder
We must be viglant, we must be proud
and ready to take up arms against any tyrant
that may try to uproot our way of life and
democracy. We must not forget how our
freedom has been guarded and protected or
what this great land Of ours stands for. We
must keep our grand lady standing lifting
her lamp unto the golden shores"
We will plan and build for the future
but we must not ignore and forget the past
and those that have enabled us to breath the
breath of freedom.
Take time out this Veterans Dav for a

peace and to help us preserve it and for Civ
ing us men and women strong enough in
strength and faith to defend it.

Tins On Winter Drivin6

Six quick tips from the National Safety
Council on how to be better winter driver:
l. Winterze not only your car, but your
driving technique and your attitude as well.
Normal speeds often are too fast for winter
conditions When weathers bad, slow down.
2. Have good tires - preferably snow
tires and for more severe conditions, use
reinforced tire chains
g. Keep windshield and windows clear,
and wiper blades, heater and defroster in
proper operating condition.
4. Get the feel of the road as soon as YOU
start out (but away from hazards or other
cars). BY cautiously trying your brakes or
gently pressing your accelerator, YOU can
learn how slippery the road surface is. Then
adjust YOUR speed accordingly.
S. Keep we'll back of the vehicle ahead to
give yourself plentv Of room for an emer-
pencv stop. Following too closely is doubly
dangerous on winter roads.
g. Pump your brakes to stop quickly on
icv roads. Jamming on the brakes will throw
the car into an uncontrolled skid. The trick
is to slow the car by rapid and intermittent

brake applications and at the same time
maintain rolling traction that gives steering
control.
"There's nothing much you can do about
winter weather except be prepared for it, "
the National Safevt Council said "Snow and
ice, combined with early darkness, frequent
snoWstorms and scattered windshields, help
cause the high auto death and injury toll in
the winter"
The Council cited these revealing facts:
|. In | out of 6 fatal auto accidents, the
weather is rainy, foggv or snowy.
g. In l out of fatal auto accidents, the
road is wet, snowy, icv or muddy.
s. In fatal auto accidents in which the
drivers vision is obstructed, rain snow and
,sleet on the car windshield crop up in 2 out
of 5 instances.
"Seat belts must whenever you drive, u
the Council said, "are especially valuable in
winter"
"But nothing it emphasized, "protects a
driver as much as being prepared for the add
ed hazards of winter driving"

and mercy, and glory. We find
considerable contentment in
these words - those of US who
still maintain the beauty of and
satisfaction of enjoyment in
study and true intellect. We find
- in pondering awhile here - no
mention of guns, no mention of
missiles, no mention of sorrow.
We find only promise of eternal
contentment eternal happiness
eternal peace and love! No,
we do not want war - but in
stead happiness, and love, and
understanding. These are the
things which give true inspira-
ton to the hearts and souls of
all mankind. These are the things
which lead US onward - not
into battle - but giving us en-
couragement and casting the
eternal light of love and the
guiding hand of peace on earth
- good will toward men, as we
pray for the continuation of
pacific guidance and our eternal
gratitude to the One most high
for He is continual love. He
promises as we live - live. No,
we do not die - but we live from
day to day in his light - that
eternal one.

'sThe land of the free, the home of the
brave" our song, our words, our country!
Men and women have died for 1t, men and
women have loved and sacrificed for it. Was
it all in vain?
No, it was not We can still walk down
anv street in this great country OF ours and
need never fear the sharp cry of Halt. We
don't have to carry permits that say we are
allowed on Main street or the square or any
place else. We are FREE.
We have gone through two world wars
and the Korean conflict and 1t seems rld1cu-
lous to us when we think Of how our sons,
brothers, husbands, and fathers have died in
the wars. (Total number of deaths resulting
from wars we have been engaged in amounts
to 550052) For what you say? Where has it
gotten us? When will it happen again?
Perhaps it seems a hugh waste of human
flesh and blood to you, but let's think of it
this way-supposing they had not split their
blood on foreign shores, supposing they
would have felt it wasn't worth it? Where
would we be today? Could we be planning
Thanksgiving dinner, could we be anxiously
awaiting Christmas day? Could we hold cleo
tons, speak out our thoughts for or against
our president, would there be Republicans
or Democrats? Could we 60 to the church Of
orr choice and worship our God? The answer
to these questions is an emphatic no.
Perhaps giving their lives did not bring
"peace on earth and good will toward man"
but it enabled us to stay free and untouched
by heathenish monsters that would have
made slaves of us, killed us, and literally
crucified u.s. 1t allows us to stand and pledge
our allegiance to our flag to sing out the true
meaning Of ''liberty and justice for all".
All in all, maybe they did not free the
world and cover it with peace, but they kept
the enemy from our shores and stopped the
crush of a hand that was slowly and method-
cally engulfing our universe until the last
gasp of air was beginning to be squeezed
from it.

disaster.
The ability with which gov

the yearning Of men for power
over each other. Hitler and the
rest won power over their
people by offering easy re-
medies in exchange for free

the result is the same, whether

Secretary OF State OF Ohio

The men and women who serve
as precinct officials in the polling
places on election day must as
sumo the full responsibility for
proper conduct of the election.
They must maintain order and
quiet at all times; they must en-
force the election laws without
bias or prejudice.
The United States flags placed
on the thoroughfare one hundred
feet from the polling place mark
the distance within which per-
sons, other than election officials,
witnesses, challengers, police Of
ficers, and electors waiting to
vote, shall not loiter or congreg-
ate. No advertising matter of any
candidate or any question or
issue is permitted in the polling
place itself or within the flag
ged off" area.
The precinct officials are
charged with supplying each
elector with the ballots contain
ing the offices or questions and
issues upon which the elector is
entitled to vote. The inclusion
of unlawfully cast ballots has
caused many elections to be de-
clared invalid. 1t becomes i'm
portant therefore that the elector
give the precinct officials full
information concerning the poll
tical subdivisions in which his
residence is located.
