Calling nuclear radiation “the most uncontrollable, irreversible threat to human life that has ever existed," Clergy and Laity concerned are adding their voice to the opposition and joining others in calling for a halt to the building of nuclear plants. CALC will hold a national Religious Convocation for Human Survival to coincide with the U.S. Special Session on Disarmament in May of 1978. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commis sion's Atomic Safety and Licensing Board is in Portland for hearings on Portland General Electric's request to enlarge storage facilities for nuclear wastes at its Trojan plant. Every state houses nuclear reactors and/or nuclear weapons. Nearly one hundred nuclear power plants, 15,000 nuclear weapons and scores of research reactors, radioactive waste dumps, ura nium mining facilities and contaminated test sites are spread across the nation. Thus far, the federal government has Other countries are also grappling with the nuclear waste disposal problem. Both Canada and West Germany are expert menting with sealing it in underground geological formations, an approach scien tific experts consider the most feasible. Canada is currently burying its radio active wastes in 3,000-foot holes bored into solid granite on a 25-square-mile test site in Ontario. A local citizens' group is opposing the project. West German wastes are being placed in a low level salt mine near Hanover, but the program is still in a preliminary stage. The government’s handling of the wastes has come under attack by West Germany’s powerful anti-nuclear move- ment, and there is a moratorium on the construction of new reactors while au thorities try to demonstrate the feasibi lity of their waste disposal program. Great Britain places its nuclear wastes in engineered storage facilities, but this approach was criticized by the British Royal Commission last year. France is debating between geological disposal and engineered storage facilities, and in the interim, like most other countries, is storing its radioactive wastes in on-site storage facilities, await ing the day when they can be reprocess ed. arrangement that guarantees employees a ride every day, despite someone's vacations, sickness, or the car’s mechani cal breakdowns. If a van breaks down, the driver calls two cabs and is reim bursed for the cost. Here's how van pooling usually works: a company, public agency, or other sponsoring group buys or leases a num ber of vans and provides them to em ployees in the community who will be the drivers. Sometimes arrangements are made with employees who already own vans. In return for driving, the employ ees get free transportation to and from work and can also use the van on personal time at a specified charge. Passenger fees reimburse the sponsor for most or all of the costs. Cars are the chief cause of air pollution, and your Oregon Lung Association is interested in transportation alternatives that reduce unnecessary numbers of polluting vehicles on the road.

Cor pooling option for eloon air kv Rnv CArnAlhi« by Roy Cornelius In my work with the public I find that all many people can say about our youth of today is “Well...we didn't live like that in our day. You didn't find our boys running wild as is the case today. We had everything to be proud of in their character. They gave us so little trouble., we never had to worry about where they were or what they were doing." And I say to you, you are wrong, wrong. And I know what I am talking about. Personally I like the youth of today...maybe I don’t always agree with them but when you come to the belief they were all little angels, again I say you are wrong. « ♦ Valentine w ShowVour How Much You Care!

Some states even have federal- aid highway funds available for starting a van pool.

The longer the commute, the greater the cost advantages are compared to driving alone. Reserved parking places in the company lot solve hassles where such places are in limited supply. Three years ago there were only 300 vans operating in such pools, but, accord ing to the Urban Mass Transportation Administration, there are now 2,000.

There was one great difference...those days they were accom plishing most of the same things as today. But it was not out in the open like it is today. I can recall when they went to Sunday School in the morning and on their way home would buy Cherotes (a type of cigar - three for a nickel). And do you know ____ su;__a ... .... . something? They couldn’t wait till after lunch to go out behind the barn. Perfect, you say? Then in those days, for some reason, the older people made it so very tough for youngsters...when they wanted to deride them they would call them wild oats participants" agreeing in all the lives of the youth of their day. There was a time when the youth simply had to go to town to get into trouble, and for some reason it was drill ed into their minds and rather expected of them. Knowing many youth, I know a great majority took the advice of those who had driven them into that degrading action. And do you know something else? Many, through that adventure caught a very bad disease and many times would not tell their parents until It was too late. Even medical science in those days could not do too much...I know of a few who died...one couple who were engaged to marry could not get well, so they took the route of the Mississippi to end it all. (There is a sad story connected with this...they left notes to be buried togeth er..but do you know something...neither of their parents would permit it. I know for I was at the funeral.) A great many of our youth today are taking the same wrong road...but they are not the first and they won't be the last. One blessing of today is the help they receive when they get into trouble. Most youth need this help with the conditions as they are. It is high time those people who know, tell those who don’t know how to protect themselves. I feel that most of the improper actions today are brought about - first by unhappiness in the home and then by seeing their parents doing the same thing they are not supposed to do... example is hard to get rid of. Then there are too rigid controls in the home. I think < it is high lime youngsters are a part of the family and treated as such. Remember, they did not ask to become your children. Now that they are, why not do something for them that can and will take the place of their searching other places for release or a way out? In closing let me further say, let us be fair, let us consider youth as real human beings, living with the same problems you did, and I think doing a pretty good job of it. At least the percentages say so. I like them as a whole and feel while they may be taking the easy road at present, I don’t think we have too much to worry about in their future. “I believe in them.” 282-2216 PORTLAND ClfANING WORKS NORTH & N X PORTLAND ONE DAY SERVICE You are Welcome to Worshi,» at THE ARK OF SAFETY CHURCH OF GOD PENTECOSTAL.
