Page 4 CORTLAND STANDARD Mon., Jan. 20, 1969 Promising Choice "MEETING CALLED TO ORDER!" The three Democratic aldermen's jcathing criticism of the mayor's Jan. ,15th announcement of the formal resig- nation submitted by the Sixth Ward al- derman was ridiculous. It would be ' laughable if the implications did not so ; strongly indicate political chicanery and even obstructionism in the "face of good \ city government. The Democratic aldermen went off half-cocked. Whoever their leader might be, it was clearly a case of the blind lead- ing the blind in a seemingly desperate search for grounds upon which to blast a sincere, hard-working mayor. In a prepared press release, the Dem- . ocratic aldermen appeared to be "all bent out of shape" because the mayor announced Jan. 15 receipt of the Sixth Ward alderman's formal letter of resig- nation before they were informed. This is ridiculous because the alderman, him- self, announced a month ago, Dec. 19, • that he intended to move to Florida in ' January to accept a business offer. This ; fact was published along with a picture • of the veteran Republican alderman of i the Sixth Ward. ! The Democratic aldermen's prepared ; press release failed to point out the Sixth • Ward alderman's Dec. 19th personal an- nouncement in their abortive effort to ' make political hay. The mayor, when he released the formal announcement of resignation, in- dicated his intent to announce within three days his recommendation for a ; successor, subject to approval of the Common Council. Any fool, Republican or Democrat who is able to read the City Charter or who has an ounce of common sense, must realize that the present al- derman could not be succeeded until his office is vacated as of the effective date -of the resignation, Jan. 31. Time was when some previous may- • ors seemed Jo take delight in walking into a Common Council meeting with a surprise appointment. Many times the Council was called upon to act without proper time for consideration. The pres- ent mayor must be credited with making prior announcement of intended appoint- ments whenever possible to give time for consideration. The political point of the whole silly bit here is that the Democratic aldermen realize the Common Council is split poli- An Editorial Sixth Ward's William Duffy tically three-three. Soon, with one less Republican vote, they apparently set out blindly to block approval of the mayor's appointment even before they knew who the appointee might be. Since then, the mayor's announce- ment Jan. 18, of his choice of a succes- sor to the Sixth Ward alderman was most gratifying. Politically, the mayor's choice of William F. Duffy is fortunate under the surrounding circumstances. Mr. Duf- fy's registration record shows he has maintained an independent status in pol- itics. This means he can't be led by the nose and city government obviously needs that kind of man. Mr. Duffy, an attorney, has qualifi- cations beyond reproach. There is plenty of time between now and Jan. 31 to con- sider the following qualifications prom- ising so much for public service to the city. He is a graduate of Notre Dame Uni- versity, received his bachelor of law de- gree from Georgetown University and a master's degree from the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administra- tion. Mr. Duffy has long served as counsel to the transportation industry and is a director of the New York State Motor Trucks Association. If there is one thing the Cortland administration needs, it is experienced counsel and guidance in its efforts to solve traffic and transportation problems witness Tompkins, Port Watson, Church Street and Groton Ave- nue during rush hours. In addition to a remarkable educa- tional background and professional ex- perience, Mr. Duffy has successfully led community efforts for Sixth Ward im- provements, including removal of the old city dump and smoke abatement, regard- less of political implications. Mr. Duffy was appointed originally to serve on the Planning Commission dur- ing a Democratic administration and was later appointed to the Police Commis- sion. He was re-appointed under a Re- publican administration and has served as chairman for almost four years during the Police Department's period of change leading steadily to successive im- provements. The Sixth Ward has a most distin- guished resident who promises to serve the entire city well.

Reporters Notebook •***>*«****« Women Are Gelling More Affluent NEW YORK (AP) — Things a columnist might never know if he didn't open his mail: In our affluent society women are getting more affluent. Seven out of 10 of them now own life insurance. While traveling through Ohio, beware of trying to cool your feet by sticking them out of a car window. This can get you arrested. The Roman ruler Julius Cae- sar is credited by some histo- rians of being the father of the modern newspaper. He had dai- ly reports of public business posted in the Forum. If your child has mumps, don't treat the disease lightly. This ailment, which can cause sterility in adults, among young- er persons can leave in its wake deafness, heart, kidney and thy- roid disorders. These Days Here's why, when traveling on the highway, you should keep ample space between your car and the one ahead of you: it takes the average driver three- quarters of a second to react to an emergency. In that time a car going 52 miles an hour will travel 68 feet. Genius often goes unrewarded in its own lifetime. Mozart, re- garded by many as the most gifted of all composers, on occa- sion was so impoverished that he couldn't afford heat in his room. While writing some of his immortal music, he wrapped his hands in woolen socks to keep them warm. Quotable notables: "A man doesn't begin to attain wisdom until he recognizes that he is no longer indispensable." — Rich- ard E. Byrd. You may have trouble on a clear day taking a picture of your wife in clear focus, but aerial cameras are now so pre- cise that they can identify ob- jects as small as a foreign snorts car from altitudes up to 300 miles. They can't pick out the license number though. How it began: Medals are tra- ditionally worn on the left breast of a soldier's uniform. This custom goes back at least as far as the Crusaders, who were so proud of the emblems of the order for which they fought that they placed them next to the heart. Violent odds: Out of every'100 persons living in this country, the chances are that two of them will be murdered, raped, robbed or beaten during the present year. Worth remembering: "The only thing more expensive than education is ignorance." by John Chamberlain Nixon Can Save LBJ's Place in History Lyndon Johnson departs from the White House today with his eye on history. History, how- ever, is always written by the survivors, and the LBJ place in the books will depend on the outcome of a war which he neither started nor was able to finish. In the long span of time the Johnson Administration will be' judged by the results of the current "Peace" negotiations at Paris. Everything, both domes- tic and foreign, depends on them. If the Communists win any sort of victory in Paris, every, thing could unravel. Victory, for the Communists, means break- ing the will of the U. S. and the Saigon government to resist a coalition regime for South Viet- nam that would allow the Viet Cong to take over by deferred "le"alistic" njeans. If this should ever come about the word of the U. S will be worthless in Japan, in West Germany, in the Phillippines, in Thailand. The Leftist revolu- tionary impetus felt abroad would quickly be communicated to the U. S. at home: the young, the blacks, the peoole in ghet- tos, would assuredly see no point in abiding by traditional political methods. Whatever may be said of Lyn- don Johnson, nobody can ar- gue that he lacks native intel- igence. He always knew that if he were to cut and run from Vietnam, he would go down in history as the first American President to lose a war. So. no matter what 'sort of impatience Secretary of De- fense Clark Clifford exhibited over the refractory behavior of Saigon's Marshal Ky at Paris, Johnson never instructed our negotiators to give in on cru- cial procedural matters that would have allowed the Com- munists to assume they could win at the peace table what they have not been able to nail down on the battlefield. Johnson may have been dis- appointed that he could not bring about a significant cease- fire before departing for his ranch. Yet he has at least left things in some semblance of order for the men who can save h:s renvtation from the dissi- dent elomen f s both in and out- s?d» of his o'vn partv who think a Hanoi victory can be written off as harmless in the Ions run. It is significant, perhaps, that three of the men picked by Nixon to fight the battle of the the neace talks have all repre- sented the more embattled LB- Our chief negotiator. Henry m ; ^ Today's Business Mirror By John Cunniff - AP Business Analyst NEW YORK (AP) —"This overheated economy just sucked imports in all over the place," said the Treasury official to the Hcuse Senate subcommittee. In this one simple sentence did Frederick Deming, Treas- ury undersecretary, speak of a situation that is: 1. In the news almost every day; 2. Considered dangerous by many experts; 3. All but impossible to under- stand. What Deming meant by his statement, made last week, was that the excess of demand and money in the United States was making imported goods not only desirable but purchasable— which is bad for the balance of payments. This problem has been with us for 11 years now and with each discussion it seems to get more complex and tangled. For many people its mere mention on a newspaper page is reason enough to turn to the crossword puzzle. Simply stated, a country has a balance of payments when the money it sends or spends abroad equals that brought into the country by foreigners. Sel- Ca'br-t Lodge, though a Repub- lican, was LBJ's man as Am- bassador in Saison; Bunk- er, the current Ambassador who will stay on in Saigon, likes the South Vietnamese gov- ernment; and U. Alexis John- son, the new Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs, has had a long background of serv- ice in Thailand, Vietnam, and Jaoan as well as in Czechosol- vakia, all of which equips him to understand both the Com- munists and the East These men are not vociferous ha-vks. but they are not going to sell us out at Paris after spending more than 30,000 lives. As this column is being writ* ten, Nixon has not disclosed his ideas about bringing pressure on Hanoi to accept a cease- fire in Vietnam. Yet surely the words of his foreign policy ad- visor, Henry Kissinger, will guide him in his instructions to Secretary of State William Rog- ers and to Lodge, Bunker, and Alexis Johnson. Kissinger's article on the is- sue of Foreign Affairs for Jan- uarv. 1969. concludes with the words: 'However we got into Vietnam, whatever the judg- ment of our actions, ending the war honorably is essential for the peace of the world. Anv oth- er solution may unloose forces that would complicate prospects of international order. A new Administration must be given.. ... a chance to move toward a peace which grants the people of Vietnam what they have so long struggled to achieve: an opportunity to work out their destiny in their own way." This Kissinger pronounce- ment offers reassurance to Lyn- don Johnson, among others, that the war in Southeast Asia was not undertaken in vain. Kissinger envisages direct ne- gotiations between the U. S. and Hanoi looking toward even- tual mutual withdrawal from South Vietnamese Territory. The South Vietnamese would be expected to deal with the National Liberation Front on subjects affecting the internal structure of South Vietnam. This would give Saigon "great- est possible control over the is- sues that affect its own fate." A "coalition government is, in Kissinger's opinion, "undesir- able," though Saigon might a- gree to a "mixed commission to develop and supervise a polit- ical process to reintegrate the country — including free elec- tions," with "an international presence to enforce good faith." This won't please the out-and- out hawks. It is » long way, however, from the cut-and-run solution that would assign LBJ — along with the American Re- public — to the garbage can of history. Copyright 1968 King Features Syndicate Inc. dom is it really in balance, how- ever. Generally there is a sur- plus or deficit. Now any country is liable at some lime or another to be in a deficit condition, because it is impossible for the world's na- tions to perfectly balance their spending and buying. However, when a nation runs upjleficits for 11 years the other countries begin to worry. They see themselves with too many dollars and wonder if it might not be safer to have gold in- stead. And so they trade their dollars for gold. This is the dangerous aspect of the balance—really the im- balance—of payments situation. If confidence is lost in the dollar it can be catastrophic for world trade, for the dollar is still the most acceptable means of ex- change. What makes the dangerous situation critical is that inflation in the United States has a dou- ble impact on this imbalance. Deming aptly described the situation as "miserable." Just a year ago the country had more than $4 billion in surplus. And just four years ago some $6 bil- lion more goods were sold than bought. But, you say, this still leaves the United States with a balance in its favor. Yes, a balance of trade, but trade is only one as- pect of the balance of payments. Not all the money that goes in and out of a nation is trade. The United States, for exam- ple, supports a costly war, in Vietnam, thousands of troops in Europe, spends money in aiding less developed nations. In addi- tion, corporations spend on for- eign investments. The result of all factors has been an imbalance in payments for 11 years. This past year, be- cause foreign money was at- tracted to the U.S. stock mar- kets, and because of restrictions on foreign investments, the first surplus since 1957 was reached. The worries continue, howev- er. What would happen if re- strictions on foreign invest- ments were lifted? And of even greater importance, what hap- pens if inflation cannot be con- trolled and continues to suck in foreign goods?

Today's highlijpiHn history: On this date in 1937, as a re- sult of the 20th, or "Lame Duck" Amendment to the Con- stitution, President Franklin D. Roosevelt was sworn into of- fice for his second term—the first president to be inaugurated in January. On this date: In 1887, the Senate approved the leasing of Pearl Harbor as a base for the Navy. In 1892, students at the Inter- national YMCA Training School in Springfield, Mass., played the first official basketball game, invented by Dr. James Nai- smith. In 1936, King George V of Britain died and his eldest son, the Prince of Wales, succeeded to the throne as Edward VUX In 1945, President Franklin D. Roosevelt broke tradition once again and was inducted into of- fice for his fourth term. In 1953, for the first time in 20 years, the nation inaugurated a Republican president, As Gen. Dwight D.

Under Title III of that Act, states and commu- nities were provided wita an important resource for dealing services and opportunities for their older citizens. How has the program worked out? One yardstick to measure the success or failure of this law is that more than 500,000 older Am- ericans in 700 communities have already benefited from the pro- gram. These are persons who have been helped to maintain in- dependence and to remain ac- tively involved in community life. Take this question of in- dependent living. Most older persons want to be able to stay in their own neighborhoods and homes. But many of them must enter hospitals or other institu- tions because of relatively min- or ailments or emergencies — when they could have remained at home, if they had had help. Title HI is now helping people remain at home in such situa- tions. Homemaker services under this program are now available to older Americans in over 50 communities across the nation, including such localities as the District of Columbia; Roxbury, Mass.; Omaha, Neb.; and Reading, Pa. Typical of services in these areas is a com- munity service group which pro- vides a trained homemaker to prepare a hot me"al every day, do some shopping and give per- sonal care, while the temperar- ily disabled oider person re- mains at home. Transportation Service In other communities such as Austin, Texas; Providence, R. I.; and Savannah, Ga., friendly visiting and telephone reassur- ance services are in operation. This brings a warm touch into the homes of those ill or dis- abled. Some older persons who pre- fer to live alone in their home pay a price in the loss of good nutrition. They may be unable to prepare wholesome meals for themselves, nor can they afford to eat out at restaurants. In Towson, . Ind.; Decatur, 111.; Richmond, Va.; and Salt Lake City, Utah, there are meal serv- ice programs which assure the person who is living alone a hot meal at least once a day. Another problem for the older person living alone is reaching a doctor's office or hospital for examination or treatment. In some places, such as Steamboat Springs, Colo., a friendly visitor and transportation service helps people to get to the county hos- pital. The other major part of Title Ill's attack is in providing op- portunities for active involve- ment in community life. Older persons are eager for continued active engagement in the daily life of their community. T h i s means the ability to visit friends and family, take part in edu- cational and recreational pro- grams, and satisfy personal and emotional needs so that life continues to be challenging and worthwhile. Funds To Senior Centers H a person with a great deal of time on his hands wants to put thi s free time to work in serving others in the communi- ty he can take part in a project involving older people's service to the community. Over 600 in- dividual older persons vol- unteered for community service activities during the first 15 months of operation in one mul- tipurpose senior center in Lin- coln, Neb. — set up under Title III. In one 12-month period, an over-60 employment service, re- ceiving support from Title III, place 620 persons in some 60 dif- ferent categories of jobs. In over 250 communities throughout the nation, funds are being funneled to senior centers. These are places where older people can take part in social and recreational opportunities, with a chance to make a worth- while contribution to others in their volunteer activities. Then there are 300 communi- ties throughout the nation which have referral centers as a result of Title III. These are locations to which a person can turn when he has a specific problem. For example, a minister might have a housing problem with one of his elderly parishioners or a grandchild may have a problem with a grandparent who is in his care. They can call the referral center and be put in touch with the proper services to handle News Note... CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — A center for the advancement of criminal justice will open in the fall at Harvard Law School. The university announced the establishment of the center Fri- day under a $1 million grant from the Ford Foundation. Two members of the law school faculty, James Voren- berg, professor of law, and Lloyd E. Ohlin, professor of criminology, will direct the cen- ter. Vorenberg said research will focus on understanding the causes and impact of crime, and attempt to strengthen meth- ods of coping with i t their problems. All in all, considerable mile- age has resulted from the Old- er Americans Act. Not only have the successes been important, but even projects which fell short of their intended mark were valuable.

Reporters Notebook •***>*«****« Women Are Gelling More Affluent

NEW YORK (AP) — Things a columnist might never know if he didn't open his mail:

In our affluent society women are getting more affluent. Seven out of 10 of them now own life insurance.

While traveling through Ohio, beware of trying to cool your feet by sticking them out of a car window. This can get you arrested.

The Roman ruler Julius Cae­sar is credited by some histo­rians of being the father of the modern newspaper. He had dai­ly reports of public business posted in the Forum.

If your child has mumps, don't treat the disease lightly. This ailment, which can cause sterility in adults, among young­er persons can leave in its wake deafness, heart, kidney and thy­roid disorders.

These Days

Here's why, when traveling on the highway, you should keep ample space between your car and the one ahead of you: it takes the average driver three-quarters of a second to react to an emergency. In that time a car going 52 miles an hour will travel 68 feet.

Genius often goes unrewarded in its own lifetime. Mozart, re­garded by many as the most gifted of all composers, on occa­sion was so impoverished that he couldn't afford heat in his room. While writing some of his immortal music, he wrapped his hands in woolen socks to keep them warm.

Quotable notables: "A man doesn't begin to attain wisdom until he recognizes that he is no longer indispensable." — Rich­ard E. Byrd.

You may have trouble on a

clear day taking a picture of your wife in clear focus, but aerial cameras are now so pre­cise that they can identify ob­jects as small as a foreign snorts car from altitudes up to 300 miles. They can't pick out the license number though.

How it began: Medals are tra­ditionally worn on the left breast of a soldier's uniform. This custom goes back at least as far as the Crusaders, who were so proud of the emblems of the order for which they fought that they placed them next to the heart.

Violent odds: Out of every'100 persons living in this country, the chances are that two of them will be murdered, raped, robbed or beaten during the present year.

Worth remembering: "The only thing more expensive than education is ignorance."

Nixon Can Save LBJ's Place in History Lyndon Johnson departs from

the White House today with his eye on history. History, how­ever, is always written by the survivors, and the LBJ place in the books will depend on the outcome of a war which he neither started nor was able to finish.

In the long span of time the Johnson Administration will be' judged by the results of the current "Peace" negotiations at Paris. Everything, both domes­tic and foreign, depends on them.

If the Communists win any sort of victory in Paris, every, thing could unravel. Victory, for the Communists, means break­ing the will of the U. S. and the Saigon government to resist a coalition regime for South Viet­nam that would allow the Viet Cong to take over by deferred "le"alistic" njeans.

If this should ever come about the word of the U. S will be worthless in Japan, in West Germany, in the Phillippines, in Thailand. The Leftist revolu­tionary impetus felt abroad would quickly be communicated to the U. S. at home: the young, the blacks, the peoole in ghet­tos, would assuredly see no point in abiding by traditional political methods.

Whatever may be said of Lyn­don Johnson, nobody can ar­gue that he lacks native intel-igence. He always knew that if he were to cut and run from Vietnam, he would go down in history as the first American President to lose a war.

So. no matter what 'sort of impatience Secretary of De­fense Clark Clifford exhibited over the refractory behavior of Saigon's Marshal Ky at Paris, Johnson never instructed our

negotiators to give in on cru­cial procedural matters that would have allowed the Com­munists to assume they could win at the peace table what they have not been able to nail down on the battlefield.

Johnson may have been dis­appointed that he could not bring about a significant cease­fire before departing for his ranch. Yet he has at least left things in some semblance of order for the men who can save h:s renvtation from the dissi­dent elomenfs both in and out-s?d» of his o'vn partv who think a Hanoi victory can be written off as harmless in the Ions run.

It is significant, perhaps, that three of the men picked by Nixon to fight the battle of the the neace talks have all repre­sented the more embattled LB-

Today's Business Mirror By John Cunniff - AP Business Analyst

NEW YORK (AP) —"This overheated economy just sucked imports in all over the place," said the Treasury official to the Hcuse Senate subcommittee.

In this one simple sentence did Frederick Deming, Treas­ury undersecretary, speak of a situation that is: 1. In the news almost every day; 2. Considered dangerous by many experts; 3. All but impossible to under­stand.

What Deming meant by his statement, made last week, was that the excess of demand and money in the United States was making imported goods not only desirable but purchasable— which is bad for the balance of payments.

This problem has been with us for 11 years now and with each discussion it seems to get more complex and tangled. For many people its mere mention on a newspaper page is reason enough to turn to the crossword puzzle.

Simply stated, a country has a balance of payments when the money it sends or spends abroad equals that brought into the country by foreigners. Sel-

Ca'br-t Lodge, though a Repub­lican, was LBJ's man as Am­bassador in Saison; Bunk­er, the current Ambassador who will stay on in Saigon, likes the South Vietnamese gov­ernment; and U. Alexis John­son, the new Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs, has had a long background of serv­ice in Thailand, Vietnam, and Jaoan as well as in Czechosol-vakia, all of which equips him to understand both the Com­munists and the East

These men are not vociferous ha-vks. but they are not going to sell us out at Paris after spending more than 30,000 lives.

As this column is being writ* ten, Nixon has not disclosed his ideas about bringing pressure on Hanoi to accept a cease­fire in Vietnam. Yet surely the words of his foreign policy ad­visor, Henry Kissinger, will guide him in his instructions to Secretary of State William Rog­ers and to Lodge, Bunker, and Alexis Johnson.

Kissinger's article on the is­sue of Foreign Affairs for Jan-uarv. 1969. concludes with the words: 'However we got into Vietnam, whatever the judg­ment of our actions, ending the war honorably is essential for the peace of the world. Anv oth­er solution may unloose forces that would complicate prospects of international order. A new Administration must be given.. ... a chance to move toward a peace which grants the people of Vietnam what they have so long struggled to achieve: an opportunity to work out their destiny in their own way."

T h i s Kissinger pronounce­ment offers reassurance to Lyn­don Johnson, among others, that the war in Southeast Asia was not undertaken in vain. Kissinger envisages direct ne­gotiations between the U. S. and Hanoi looking toward even­tual mutual withdrawal from South Vietnamese Territory.

The South Vietnamese would be expected to deal with the National Liberation Front on subjects affecting the internal structure of South Vietnam. This would give Saigon "great­est possible control over the is­sues that affect its own fate."

A "coalition government is, in Kissinger's opinion, "undesir­able," though Saigon might a-gree to a "mixed commission to develop and supervise a polit­ical process to reintegrate the country — including free elec­tions," with "an international presence to enforce good faith."

This won't please the out-and-out hawks. It is » long way, however, from the cut-and-run solution that would assign LBJ — along with the American Re­public — to the garbage can of history. Copyright 1968 King Features

dom is it really in balance, how­ever. Generally there is a sur­plus or deficit.

Now any country is liable at some lime or another to be in a deficit condition, because it is impossible for the world's na­tions to perfectly balance their spending and buying.

However, when a nation runs upjleficits for 11 years the other countries begin to worry. They see themselves with too many dollars and wonder if it might not be safer to have gold in­stead. And so they trade their dollars for gold.

This is the dangerous aspect of the balance—really the im­balance—of payments situation. If confidence is lost in the dollar it can be catastrophic for world trade, for the dollar is still the most acceptable means of ex­change.

What makes the dangerous situation critical is that inflation in the United States has a dou­ble impact on this imbalance.

Deming aptly described the situation as "miserable." Just a year ago the country had more than $4 billion in surplus. And just four years ago some $6 bil­

lion more goods were sold than bought.

But, you say, this still leaves the United States with a balance in its favor. Yes, a balance of trade, but trade is only one as­pect of the balance of payments. Not all the money that goes in and out of a nation is trade.

The United States, for exam­ple, supports a costly war, in Vietnam, thousands of troops in Europe, spends money in aiding less developed nations. In addi­tion, corporations spend on for­eign investments.

The result of all factors has been an imbalance in payments for 11 years. This past year, be­cause foreign money was at­tracted to the U.S. stock mar­kets, and because of restrictions on foreign investments, the first surplus since 1957 was reached.

The worries continue, howev­er. What would happen if re­strictions on foreign invest­ments were lifted? And of even greater importance, what hap­pens if inflation cannot be con­trolled and continues to suck in foreign goods?

Its relaxing to stop and shop after driving 200 or 300 miles. It helps cut down on the acci­dent tolL In New Jersey I also found stores open all day Sun­day, but the miserable state of Massachusetts, everything was closed but the churches. Gas stations closed until noon.

Older American Program Helps 500,000 In the summer of 1965, the

Older Americans Act was- sign­ed into law. Under Title III of that Act, states and commu­nities were provided wita an important resource for dealing services and opportunities for their older citizens. How has the program worked out?

One yardstick to measure the success or failure of this law is that more than 500,000 older Am­ericans in 700 communities have already benefited from the pro­gram. These are persons who have been helped to maintain in­dependence and to remain ac­tively involved in community life.

Take this question of in­dependent living. Most older persons want to be able to stay in their own neighborhoods and homes. But many of them must enter hospitals or other institu­tions because of relatively min­or ailments or emergencies — when they could have remained at home, if they had had help.

Title HI is now helping people remain at home in such situa­tions. Homemaker services under this program are now available to older Americans in over 50 communities across the nation, including such localities as the District of Columbia; Roxbury, Mass.; Omaha, Neb.; and Reading, Pa. Typical of services in these areas is a com­munity service group which pro­vides a trained homemaker to prepare a hot me"al every day, do some shopping and give per­sonal care, while the temperar-ily disabled oider person re­mains at home.

Transportation Service In other communities such as

Austin, Texas; Providence, R. I.; and Savannah, Ga., friendly visiting and telephone reassur­ance services are in operation. This brings a warm touch into the homes of those ill or dis­abled.

Some older persons who pre­fer to live alone in their home pay a price in the loss of good nutrition. They may be unable to prepare wholesome meals for themselves, nor can they afford to eat out at restaurants. In Towson, . Ind.; Decatur, 111.; Richmond, Va.; and Salt Lake City, Utah, there are meal serv­ice programs which assure the person who is living alone a hot meal at least once a day.

Another problem for the older person living alone is reaching a doctor's office or hospital for examination or treatment. In some places, such as Steamboat Springs, Colo., a friendly visitor and transportation service helps people to get to the county hos­pital.

The other major part of Title

Ill's attack is in providing op­portunities for active involve­ment in community life. Older persons are eager for continued active engagement in the daily life of their community. T h i s means the ability to visit friends and family, take part in edu­cational and recreational pro­grams, and satisfy personal and emotional needs so that life continues to be challenging and worthwhile.

Funds To Senior Centers H a person with a great deal

of time on his hands wants to put this free time to work in serving others in the communi­ty he can take part in a project involving older people's service to the community. Over 600 in­dividual older persons vol­unteered for community service activities during the first 15 months of operation in one mul­tipurpose senior center in Lin­coln, Neb. — set up under Title III.

In one 12-month period, an over-60 employment service, re­ceiving support from Title III, place 620 persons in some 60 dif­ferent categories of jobs.

In over 250 communities throughout the nation, funds are being funneled to senior centers. These are places where older people can take part in social and recreational opportunities, with a chance to make a worth­while contribution to others in their volunteer activities.

Then there are 300 communi­ties throughout the nation which have referral centers as a result of Title III. These are locations to which a person can turn when he has a specific problem. For example, a minister might have a housing problem with one of his elderly parishioners or a grandchild may have a problem with a grandparent who is in his care. They can call the referral center and be put in touch with the proper services to handle

News Note... CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) —

A center for the advancement of criminal justice will open in the fall at Harvard Law School.

The university announced the establishment of the center Fri­day under a $1 million grant from the Ford Foundation.

Two members of the law school faculty, James Voren-berg, professor of law, and Lloyd E. Ohlin, professor of criminology, will direct the cen­ter.

Vorenberg said research will focus on understanding the causes and impact of crime, and attempt to strengthen meth­ods of coping with i t

their problems. All in all, considerable mile­

age has resulted from the Old­er Americans Act. Not only have the successes been important, but even projects which fell short of their intended mark were valuable.
