They say their proposed change will save lives and
will take very little trouble and expense "AM that is
needed Is a willingness on the part of the public and
manufacturers to acept the fact that this change is
logical, correct and will save Uvea"
Here is the proposal: All vehicles moving forward

"e i •The recent U.S Supreme Court ruling removing
2A8
This world and this country haven't put them-
selves in any exalted position by relying increasingly
om human wisdom hive they? So how can we afford
to leave faith and religion completely outside the
door of our schools, our legislative bodies and our
courtrooms?
It is entirely possible and more than probable that
children, can now grow up in the United States at
America without ever hearing about religion of any
kind. The only mention of the Deity they hear may
be used in profanity.
What are we going to give them in its place? Pure
materialism? If they never hear of religion as a source
of strength and comfort, how will they ever be stime-
lated to' seek out the answers to humanity's soul-
shaking questions. "What am I? Why am I living?"
Of course, many pastors have already commented
that greater effort in the home and church will be
necessary. But there are marty homes untouched by
religion of any sort. How will the children of those
homes ever find strength outside themselves?
There are admittedly many folks who are not
members of a Christian religion. This includes our *
Jewish citizens and members of various other
faiths. The Unitarians have been prominent In bring-
ing about the Supreme Court decisions. Atheists also
have staled that the Bible readings were offensive to
their belief*.
It seems to me that toleranoe should enter the pic-
ture somewhere along here This country has never
made any effort to suppress worship in each person a
choic of church. But in seeking the greatest good for
the greatest number, honor. morals and integrity have
been based upon the Ten Commandments
All our laws have been established upon th- founda-
tionto Christian belief Tolerance and respect for an-
other's religion have been important to the establish-
ment of the nation.
ff you dispense with religion, make it a hush-hush
matter, except in privacy. will your fellow man respect
you more? I think he will respect you more if you
stand sturdily by your belief, if he doesn’t happen to
agree with you, you don't condemn him or his belief.
I could be wrong, but it seems to me that h*
ruling mil devotionals entirely, many children will
show the lock of religion greatly. This to bemg done
so that a small percentage will not be offended.
If true roterance had been port of the teachings of
the small percentage the situation would never have
arisen
to our United States leans over backward so far
in being tolerant that we must tolerate Intolerance

daily prayer and Scripture reading from our public
schools does not come as a complete surprise. There
have been many indications for the past several years
that this day was coming.
However, even being prepared to hear tha decision
can't completely erase the sadness at hearing such an
edict handed down from the highest court in our land.
It leads onetto anticipate the abolishment of open-
ing prayer in Congress, for one thing. And I believe
that some of the folks up there could use a little
divine guidance.
The question also arises, "Will the pledge at alto-
glance to the American flag also be censored-Will
we no longer refer to "one nation, under God?"
Will ours be a nation under any gods of any sects,
according to the individuel’s preference, or under no
gods, if the people involved are atheists? I think the
writers of our treasured national documents hardly
for saw the day when we would consider it shameful
or offensive to acknowledge the fact that ours was
established as a Christian nation
NO ALMS PLEASE—It seems a member of a cer-
tain city political facttoe to goto} to great effort to
spread rumors to the effect that the City of Orange
to broke.
One of the basic tenets of our faith and our nation
: has been toleranoe and respect for the faith of others.
That much is true, but must we deny our own respect
for our own faith simply because those of other faiths
live among us?
Is it to be termed persecution of a minority when
we refer to the faith of our fathers? Those who do
not agree live unhampered lives. They enjoy all the
protection of life and property that our nation af-
fords. They teach their chosen religion in any way
they choose, and their worship services are
. respected.
As a nation conceived and built by the Christian
- faith. Should we do more? Aren't we already offering
, far more tolerance than would be afforded us anywhere
else in the world, if the conditions were reversed?
From National Review: "If the House approves the
multi-billion-dollar Mate Transit Bill, the federal gov-
eminent, is ilLpnove even deeper into the transportation
business: Af present, Washington throtties railways
through the ICC, hobbles airlines with the CAB. sub-
sidizes and controls shipping through two maritime
agencies, cements control over a vast highway network
through the Bureau of Public Roads, and generally
•tuffs sand from the Potomac into the nation's gear
boxes. In the interests of efficiency, En Case (R-N.J.)
wants to consolidate all the transportation agencies
under one cabinet-level department. Question: how will
the bureaucrats who oppose private mergers for ef-
ficiency read to the proposed' combi nation of trade
' restrainers?"

Another bright note wan voiced on the
Vacationing is a big business in these United States,
and th* Southwest is competing evenly with the Rocky
Mountain States and New England as « vacation
attraction area for this year.
A vacation survey by the Goodyear Tire and Rub-
ber Co. shows that the Southwest, with Texas as the
hub, will have a per cent at the country's vacatsoners.
Texas itself ranks third in single-state popularity in the
national poll. with 15 per cent at those surveyed desig-
nating it as their vacation area Colorado is first and
Michigan second.
The poll also reveals that American vacatiomers
will average 1,764 miles and spend si on their
vacations this year. The national travel budget, al-
ready estimated at US billion annually will be further
expanded this year because 2« per cent more persons
plan vacations than m 13962.
The South, the country's most favored vacation area,
will attract 11 per cent at the vacation travelers this
year. Foreign travel will account for 11 per cent. with
Canada getting 7 per cent of that figure.
The family automobile ia the favored mode of travel,
with the survey showing 92.5 per cent planning to drive.
Motels will furnish 54 per crot of the housing About
1» per cent will camp Food will taka the biggest bite
in the average vacation budget $159.85. Housing wil
take $149, transportation, $166, and entertainment Fl
at the N14.
, And while we are on the subject of use at th* auto-
midbile, we are reminded of a piece of mail that cam*
to our desk last week concerning th* rear lighting at
motor vehicles.
Hub Mail avers that the rear lighting of vehicles
is wrong, and has been wrong ever store the first
red light was installed en th* back at a buggy
They ray we are due for a change to correct lighting
that will result in the saving of many liwsa and their
proposals do sound logical!

a proposal that cities in Orange and Jefferson counties
join in requeting a unique two-county study.
1. On March 21, the State Highway Commission
- awthorized such e study in Orange and Jefferson
counties. -
4. Plans call for, the study to coordinate future
transportation facilities with prospective growth and
development in th* Golden Triangle area. In other
words, planned placement of rail waterways, air termi-
nal' and highways will insure maximum service.
I Total cost at the plan is $240,000. State and federal
(undo will pay $204,000, with local governments taking
care of the remaining $36,000. Orange's pro-rated
share is 63,087.
Without adaquate planning, railroads and waterways
have an uncommon habit at winding up side by tide
a tremendous' waste at money and facilities.
A plan, by which all transportation means in the
.. mushroomimgRolden Triangle can be coordinated, la
extremely valcaisfe. “
With Orange's population expected to soar over
60,000 in the next 15 years, such s plon is just M
neoessary here as the construction of these facilities.
