BARCLAY K. REED MEW HOURS 9 - 9

The following poem written byMrs. Eleanor Douglas Clapp ofFort Myers appeared in the De-cember 1965 issue of ColumbiaMagazine. With their kind per-mission we are reprinting thepoem for her many friends andacquaintances on Sanibel andCaptiva Islands.

A PRAYER FOR PEACE

Open our eyes and let us seeThe beauty of Thy artist's touchThat all may know how close to

TheeOur lives could come and mean

so much.Open our ears and let us hearThe harmony that springs from

TheeThat all may sing without the fearThis world will crumble with you

and me.Fill our souls once more with

truthSo we can save this twisted earth

hat all may shape anew and youth—an live again Thy way from

birth.Give us the inner strength we needSo the hovering wars will ceaseThat all may ask for Him to leadThe world from chaos into peace.

In 1966 'Associationagreement witWater Associagreed to punper thousand (was arrived aprojected costthat time theying the first yeIsland would100,000,000 (ogallons of wate , ^ « c islandswould use a p p r o x i m a t e l y60,000,000 (60 million) gallons ofwater. The estimated cost wasbased on a total production of160,000,000 (one hundred andsixty million) gallons of water. Atthe end of the first year the actualcost of production was to be de-termined and the Island WaterAssociation was to adjust theprice to the true cost retroactiveto the start of production. It wasanticipated that this cost wouldbe adjusted only by fractions ofa cent.

However, at the end of the firstyear the Islands had used 66,000,000 (66 million) gallons of wateror 6,000,000 more than antici-pated, while Pine Island had usedonly 33,000,000 (33 million) gal-lons or approximately 67 milliongallons less than they estimated.

Due to certain fixed chargesthe lack of consumption on thepart of Pine Island ran the pro-duction costs up by nearly 90 perthousand. As a result, since Aprilthe Island Water Association hasbeen subjected to increased costof water without being able to re-cover by a rate increase. The sit-uation is further complicated bythe fact that the Water Districtwas required to start repaymentof its F.H.A. loan 60 days beforewe actually started the sale ofwater.

In April we requested an in-crease but engineers reviewingthis matter for the County, Dis-trict and the F.H.A. determinedthe increase requested to be in-sufficient as it applied only tothe bulk users or 39% of ourcustomers. They pointed out thatit would take the District at least5 years to work its way out ofits financial difficulty and sug-gested we broaden the base of theincrease to include minimumusers and add additional chargesto bulk users.

The Water Board acted onthese recommendations and theresulting increase amount to$2.00 per month increase in theminimums and the bulk rate wasraised to 75(5 per thousand gallonsof water.

Due to the fact that we havebeen trying to reduce this deficitthe Water District has limited itspersonnel and maintenance ex-pense to a dangerously low level.Therefore, we feel that this in-crease plus a reexamlnation ofour costs will move the WaterAssociation into the black withinthe next 18 months and at thattime increased Water Consump-tion and rate adjustments shouldresult in the Water Board reduc-ing the rates.

Roland Q. Roberts running forCounty Commission from Dist. 3is one of our community leaderswho is deeply concerned with ourpresent problems which includethe sanitation of the area andparticularly at this moment whenplans for a water pollution pro-gram study are in the works.

"We should take a look at DadeCounty sanitation problems," hesaid. "Pollution of its canals andstreams has reached such a pointthat much waterfront has lost itsvalue. In addition to the propertyloss, the cost to the County of anew sanitation answer is estim-ated at 323 million dollars...inaddition to the millions they havealready spent. Their mistake wasdue to lack of foresight in plan-ning.

"This extremely high cost tothe taxpayers could happen to usunless our sanitation plan is anintegral part of the county-wideplanning for which I have beenpushing for years and which weare already paying for in the ser-vice of Adley and Associates.

"Florida counties are exper-iencing enormous growth beyondone's wildest dreams. We musttake into consideration what we,too, will need in the future as itwould be terribly expensive forvarious sections of Lee Countyto go off on their own uncoordin-ated program which could meanthey might have to redo the wholesystem and of course, at an in-creased cost to the taxpayer, be-cause of not fitting into a masterplan allowing for growth.

"Our Islands would probablyhave to have independent systemsbut I fell the sensible thing to dois to have a proper engineeringsurvey in the County as a whole,and not run the risk of wastingmillions of tax monies; the surveycould be conducted by Adley andAssociates if possible or if byanother engineering group. Itshould be fitted into the Jointoverall County planning, thus in-suring wise programs and savingmany tax dollars,"

ALASKAN INDIANSby Barbara Purdy

A long time ago in A l a s k a

there were Indians and they livedin the woods. Indians had to usecanoes to go places. They had nocars or planes of anything likethat. The Indians lived in littlehouses made out of wood. Theycaught fish and they ate deer andother game. They used stones andbones for tools.

TOTEM POLESby Isabel Gavin

A totem pole is a large carvedtree. The Indians owned them longago in the far lands of Alaska. Ittook Indian Artists several yearsto make the carved totem poles.A totem pole will stand a long,long time as a history of the In-dian tribe or family. Some totempoles are still standing in the landof Alaska.

State v. Woodrow Byers, firstGideon decision release, forhigher-degree of murder thanfirst sentenced to for the hammerslaying of his wife.

Mr. Schaub's reasons forseeking re-election are:

1. Our communities need theservices of every experiencedprosecutor and police officer withthe rapid increase in crime, thewidespread lack of respect forpolice and the law, and the con-tinual erosion by the SupremeCourt of the evidence and lawsneeded for convictions.

2. To complete the develop-ment of the State Attorney'sOffice in this Circuit to a pros-ecution agency second to none.

3. To obtain the results pos-sible from the forthcoming powerto appoint the Assistant StateAttorneys and the legislativerecognition of our budgetaryneeds.

4. To establish a co-ordinatedeffort between prosecutors, lawenforcement agencies, educa-tors, members of the medicalprofession, and parents, to con-vince our youth to refuse to tryany form of narcotics or halluc-inatory drugs.

5. To continue the widespreadimage of our area as the most lawabiding in the State of Florida.

6. To insure that the hardfought and expensive convictionswe obtained in such cases as theRichardson, Coppolino and Sikescases are not reversed by thehigher courts.

7. To afford training and edu-cation to police officers wheneverrequested.
