Holler When You're Hurt!
We, as American citizens, are noted for being easy going,
tolerant of others and liberal with our purse strings. We
live and let live, as long as it does not affect us too much
individually.
We win wars, devastate enemy countries and then spend
billions of dollars to restore them to a decent standard of living.
We bring slaves from Africa, keep them in bondage for genera
tions, fail to educate them and then try to put them on an equal
footing with ourselves in less than one generation.
We are the most intelligent nation on the face of the earth-
coliectively, and the richest. But we are unable to manage our
own affairs. We spend our money like drunken sailors without
counting what we have left for necessities (after the splurge
is over).
We have a guilty feeling because we are an affluent nation and
our guilt affects our attitude. We forget that we are a capitalist
nation with each individual able to progress according to his
ability. We fight socialism and communism with our whole
being because we have learned their weaknesses. But — because
we have a guilt-complex about our affluence and our sympathy
with those less fortunate we attempt to make up for our short
comings with cash.
We offer the cash to the poor, over-populated, under-educated
nations throughout the world. We assume that enough money
will bring their living standards near ours. This philosophy
is not only that of us, as individuals, but of our federal govern
ment. We haven’t learned that we can’t make a Silk Purse out
of a Sow’s Ear! There must be desire for betterment! There
must be an ability to make the improvement, and, there must be,
regardless of how long it takes, an ability, on the part of some
one to pay the bill!
It seems to us that we have failed to recognize the necessary
steps and the proper order of these steps to enable us to be
Saviours for the rest of the world. And, if we dissipate all
our resources in a failing effort, we will fall in the same class
as our failing fellowmen (assuming we’re right in our thoughts.)
If we believe all this, or the major part of It, all we can do
is let our government know how we feel and really “HOLLER
WHEN WE’RE HURT!”
UVE THE WAY YOU UKE!
“You are not asking for charity if you ask for help. Money
given by the New York City Department of Social Services is
not charity given by the rich to the poor. It is money paid for
by Federal, state and local taxes.”
That quote is from the foreword to a 128-page book just
published by the Citizens Committee for Children of New York,
and Columbia University’s Center on Social Welfare Policy
and Law.
Later in this $2.00 volume, which will be free to welfare
clients or potential clients and antipoverty groups, it is affirmed
that when there is a man in the house, and the man and woman
“live with children as one family, but the man does not want
to support children who are not his own, he does not have to.”
“Remember,” the book says, “if a man just visits and sleeps
in the house now and then, you can forget him. He does not have
to support anybody."
If you find such counsel shocking, perhaps you will wish to
ponder this quote: • “You have the right to live the way you want
to live."
Do you wonder that taxpayers in 50 states are supporting
almost a million persons in New York City “the way they want
to live?” - Washington Exclusive

Library Reading
Program Runs
Through August
Summer reading is in full
swing at the Nyssa public li
brary. Theme of this year’s
program is “Tuck a book a
week away.”
All children grades 1 to 9
are invited to join the contest
which will continue through
August 31. To be eligible for
an award a minimum of 10
books must be read. Records
of the children’s progress will
be kept on cards at the libarary.
Next fall the cards will be pre
sented to the students with the
following awards: 10-19 books
read, ribbons; 20-29 books,
certificates; 30 or more books,
certificates with gold seals.
This project is in cooperation
with the libraries of Ontario
and Vale. Books will be mailed
to anyone in the county who
is unable to visit a library.
The Nyssa public library also
offers a reading-listening pro
gram for pre-school young
sters. This may serve a double
purpose, as younger children
are rewarded for listening, and
older brother or sister may
receive credits for reading
aloud.
A new program at the libarary
is ‘‘Storytime”, held each
Wednesday from 11:30 to 12
noon in the meeting room. All
children ages 4 through 8 are
cordially invited. Younger
children are wlecome if accom
panied by parents.
