Orfa, aadar aet ( March , lilt. WHERE GOES THE GARBAGE By George Castillo Jackson County is currently grappling with a problem which should serve as an object lesson to Douglas County. It involves, of all things, a garbage dump. The Med ford garbage disposal company is quitting the site of the old dump and is in the process of starting another. The nresent dumn is in the city limits in an area which is quickly being developed and the company is attempting to find a more acceptable site where tne reeK ana unpleas ant appearance will be removed from population centers and still be within economical transport distance. The problem is simple but its solution is becoming ex tremely thorny. The company finally found a canyon near Jacksonville, bought a 360-acie plot of land, put in roads and otherwise develoned the site. It had reason to sit back and beam happilv. The site was hidden in the canyon, drainage was away from population centers and the smells were waited far from sensitive noses. Then, the axe fell. People of Jacksonville suddenly de cided it was time to protest. They are now thumping the drum for a spot zoning ordinance to shut the company out of the site. That is, they want to make just the area in which the dump is to be situated a zone in which a dump cannot be placed. Lesson Elicited The question of which side is right doesn't affect Doug las County particularly, but the lesson it should promote deserves plenty of county consideration. That lesson is that countywide zoning as part of an overall planning pro gram would probably have served to make such a battle improbable. , The garbage dump could only have been placed in an area away from areas of population if zoning were in ef fect. Zones would have been set up for the very purpose after long preliminary study and mapping by the planning commission. The company would have known where it could set up the dump, and the people would be protected from the noxious eyesore. 4 This is a dramatic example of the need for such zon ing. The same could be applied to such things as junk yards, foul-smelling paper mills and other installations not compatible to residential areas. The most prevalent opposition to zoning is that it is just another way of government controlling the actions of the individuals. But controls for the general good of the people become necessary as populations grow. The subject is not new to the county. In recent years Douglas County voters have twice soundly defeated efforts to establish zoning in the county. It appeared that one of the major contributing reasons for the defeats was misun derstanding. Many people got zoning mixed up with build ing codes and turned down the measure on the basis of a dislike for enforcement of the code. Zoning Defeated Twice Douglas County is not alone in its problem of selling zoning. Jackson County has also had the measure defeat ed twice in recent years. The two counties also have a parallel in that they are still sparsely enough populated that advance planning will save them many headaches such as the location of Med-, ford's city dump in the future. At best, rapid growth of populations bring about se vere problems. That's why any planning that can be done before dense populations arrive will avert many problems as the growth takes place. -Hal Boyle - -Wishin', Waitin', Wonderin' Wherr ' ?&-l NEA StKiu, Inc.

'the public, whose concern with an effective Centennial celebra tion is proper and is growing, should be aware of the financial handicaps under which Ihe Cen. tcnnial very worthwhile project. Every driver, every conscienti our driver, has his own safety pro gram but to be effective any pro gram must not place emphasis on any time or period but on every single day. Any driver's personal habits are a key to safety practices. Courtesy is always the best practice for any driver and works wonders at keep ing out of trouble. Tolerance of the inconsideration of other drivers will also help. Anger at the over aggressive driver is always a haz ard. A driver's mental attitude is im portant but training can also im prove his physical power for 'safe driving.' One thing that we all need training on is the ability to SEE what we are looking at. There are five important rules for every driver. 1. Keep your vision high, i.e. look for the problems ahead of you. 2.' Keep your eyes moving. You can become hypnotized by the road Commission works.

These may seem like obvious rules but it is surprising how many times we make mistakes in "what we see, for we look with our eyes but see with our mind.

Diaffanbachtr, D. D. (Written for NEA Service) Human beings are all alike and different at the same time. Our similarities are broad but our dif ferences are minute and specific. We are born with individuality but we amplify-our basic differences with our experiences, our mental reactions and our attitudes. These differences make it diffi cult to understand the other per son. We do not have the same interests and desires. Our reactions gain acceptance for us or they cause us trouble. Much of our daily conflict could be voluntarily eliminated if we set our goals on a high level of spiritual objective. We must aim to serve others and to help them along the way. We must strive to give satisfaction rather than to merely satisfy our selves. We need to love and to deserve the love of others instead of demanding that others love us and sacrifice for us.
