A search for answers to this question is the basis for a public discussion from 6 to 8 p.m. May 5 at the St. Patrick Senior Center sponsored by the Valby Lutheran church. Four possible policy options to be examined include: U.S. as regional superpower; U.S. creates a military balance of power in the region; U.S. promotes regional and global cooperation on Middle East securi ty; or U.S. minimizes its role in the Middle East? Before coming to the discussion participants are asked to read some non-partisan materials presenting the strongest reasons for and against each option. Developed by the Study Circles Resource Center and the Center for Foreign Policy Develop ment at Brown University, these materials are available at any of the local churches or at the St. Patrick’s Senior Center office or sitting room. Participants are also invited to bring any other relevant material. “ We strongly stress the importance of reading the materials before May 5 ,” said a church spokesman. “ These options provide a starting point for discussing and thinking aloud with others about some choices we as a nation will have to make.” she said. No attempt will be made at group concensus on any of the options.

Since President Bush has declared Independence Day as a day to honor our troops and all veterans, organizers have tentative ly planned to make all local veterans honorary grand marshals of the parade and to honor them afterwards with a ceremony in the park. A unique feature of the lone celebration is that all booths and events are run by local non-profit organizations, with this being the year’s main fund raiser for some. Organizers have noted a great need for volunteers this year, to help in almost any area. Volunteers or anyone with an idea for the celebra tion are urged to contact Marvin Padberg or Frank Halvorsen.
