THE WELFARE PROBLEM How would you like to have Robert Finch’s job in the Nixon Administration? He’s to be Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare and he has to findasolution to the welfare problem. Here are some of the facts he must face: Despite the general prosperity of the nation, almost 3 million new names have been added to the relief roles in the past 10 years. More than 10 million persons now receive welfare payments. The Mayor of New York City states that 958,844 of that 10 million are on the relief roles in his city, and that an addi- tional 20,000 persons are being added each month. In passing it should be noted that the budget for New York City is now larger than that for the entire State of New York. The City’s budget is $6.1 billion; the budget for the State is slightly under $6 billion. The Mayor has asked the Governor to make all relief pay ments out of State funds. The Governor has demanded that the Federal Government take over all relief payments, throughout the 50 States. In New York there are no residency requirements. Thus what is called “unnatural migration,*’ has brought thousands of persons to the State and City’s relief roles from across the nation. In Mississippi, according to figures for 1966, aid to a family with a dependent child was $7.90 per month; in New York it was $50.83 per month. Those who advocate total Federal Government responsibility for welfare payments contend that only about 3 persons out of every 10 who are eligible are in fact receiving welfare assistance. In other words, they insist that present local and state programs are restrictive, and that the number of persons receiving welfare payments should be upwards of 30,000,000 rather than the 10,000,000 now receiving aid. What would a uniform Federal Welfare program cost? Some estimates run as high as $100 billion a year. How much would Congress appropriate? How much can the taxpayer afford? Will riot conditions be fomented if the program is not ex panded? Will taxpayers rebel if it is? We don’t know the ans wer. If you do, contact Bob Finch. (U. S.

Optometrist 889-8017 In strength the human being is no match for the tiger, _ , in speed he can be outstripped by the gazelle; as a swimmer his performance is childish compared with that of a dolphin; his sense of smell is far less acute than that of a dog; his eyes, in the daytime are less serviceable than the hawk’s, and at night, than those of a cat. Yet in one major respect he outstrips them all — he is capable of what is known as civilization. That is not merely a short way of saying that he has invented cooking and weaving, the telephone and the plough, the automobile and the hydrogen bomb. Civilization involves more than the power to make and use tools, to understand and master the forces of nature. One of the basic differences between man and the animals is his power to stand outside himself. Doubtless the tiger and the eagle are capable of the major forms of experience -- love, hate, hunger, lust. But they do not CONTEMPLATE their experience, marvel at it as something precious or beautiful in its own right. Therefore they have no will to communicate their experience. For them emotion is a mere spur to action — the building of a nest, the defeat of an enemy or the search for food or a mate. Man, like the animals, builds his nest, destroys his enemy and seeks his mate, but unlike them, he takes surprising and infinite pains to express his experience and record his emotions -- his relationship to his gods, his fellows, and his environment. To note that man is a recorder of his own experience is important, for that is equivalent to saying that man is an artist. To create a record of experience involves more than a will to record. It involves skill in the making and consider able deliberation long before the act of creation can begin. For experience is invisible, inaudible. It cannot be shared until its equivalent has been found in a sensuous symbol. Joy when the spring returns, loneliness when love dies, elation when difficulties are overcome cannot be communi cated until they have been translated into the movement of the dance, the melody and rhythm of a song, or the form and color of a work of visual art. And at the precise moment when man undertakes this task of translation he is beset by a new urge -- the urge for harmonious organization which aestheticians call form or design and which the average man calls beauty. Beauty has never been satisfactorily defined despite the labor of generations of aestheticians. Yet we recognize it when we see it or hear it, and the more we see and hear, the More sensitive we become to its appeal, whether we meet it in a saucepan or in the Sistine Chapel, in doggerel rhythm of Dante’s DIVINE COMEDY. Its preciousness when we remember that not all the wealth of the nations of the world could pur chase the contents of the Louvre, the Prado, the Uffizi and the National Galleries of London and Washington, D. C. We take this opportunity to thank our friends for the many kindnesses shown us following the untimely death of our be loved son and brother, Ralph Leavitt. We extend a special ‘thank you’ to members of the LDS second ward relief soc iety for the dinner prepared for the family.
