It's a frightening thing to
watch a formerly well-coor-
dinated. functioning organiia-
tlon come apart at the seams.
And I don't care what your
councilmen or city manager
say to the contrary. I say it’s
happening, not tomorrow—but
today, and started yesterday.
The 1966-1967 general fund
budget for bulk of the city's op-
erating departments, excluding
water and sewer and interest
and principal on outstanding
bond issues, is $1,302,411. Of this
sum, $875,530 is earmarked for
wages and salaries.
Over 45 per cent of that
amount goes to police and fire-
men. Total of the budgets of
these two departments is $488,-
414. And it's inadequate.
You can't have your cake
and eat it too. Orange citi-
zens have a choice — either
coming up with the money to
recruit and hold experienced
personnel in all departments
or paying for and getting in-
ferior or scant service.
Inferior service in the fields
of public safety, sanitation and

Officers arrested Pittman aft-
er a chase at up to 100 miles
per hour on the Fort Worth out-
skirts Friday morning. They
said he was driving a sports car
licensed by Jones, Fort Worth

Tindall related these details:
The sandy-haired prisoner at

car from a friend whose name
he couldn’t remember but was
reluctant to undergo a lie de-
tector test.
He told of buying a .303 caliber
rifle for $30 at a pawn shop and
going to the lake. He spotted
the Lairds and killed them with
shots fired from about 75 yards.
Nearly three weeks later,
Jones stopped to chat while the
youth was fishing. A shot in the
neck dropped him as the victim
was walking away,.

expected to be set up here soon.
Suitable quarters for the pro-
posed center currently are under
study by Ward 7 Advisory Board
composed of Rev. James Pool,
Jewel Merchant, Dexter Brown,
Bernard Lane, Melvin Dowers
and R. Nichols.
The advisory board serves as
a liaison to a 30-member gov-
erning board of GAP which
comprises representatives from
throughout Calcasieu Parish.
GAP headquarters are at 810 N.
Shattuck St., Lake Charles.
The center is one of 10 target
areas in the parish to be fi-
nanced through $476,000 allocat-
ed under the Office of Economic
Opportunity.
The multiservice neighborhood
center staff will include a coor- nue v. com- — gore—. -----I -------

Darnsteadt emphasized that
all phases of the program are
integrated with the minority
group embracing the governing
and advisory boards and staff
members.
There will be four centers lo-
cated in Lake 'Charles and one
each in Iowa, Mossville-West
lake area, Sulphur, Vinton and
De Quincy. A satellite center
in Starks, will be serviced by
De Quincy and Vinton centers.
‘Darnsteadt said the staff for
the De Quincy center has been
approved and will be operative
soon..
The centers will be open 12
months. Darnsteadt pointed out
that an application can be made
if desired at the end of the 12
months, for refunding on ex-
panded bases or funds for
supervisor, day care aides and
a clerk-typist.
Arthur Dernsteadt Jr., presi-
dent of GAP, said these profes-
sional people would develop pro-
grams depending on community
needs.
The home economist possibly
would set up classes to help
neighborhood mothers. The so-
cial worker would follow prob-
lems into the home. The educa-
tional worker would set up a
program similar to adult classes
being conducted in several East
Texas school districts.
The classes would be keyed to
the greatest need, possibly in-
cluding reading, writing and
arithmetic. Darnsteadt pointed
out there are currently 800,000
functional illiterates in Louisi-
above the earth for about 45
minutes.
A similar launching is sched-
uled for Sunday morning, at
5:51. It should remain visible
for 30 to 60 minutes.
Shortly after Saturday’s

sighted brilliant objects or light

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.
(AP)—Secretary of State Dean
Rusk challenged North Viet Nam
and Communist China on Satur-
day night to test U.S. sincerity
in wanting peace in Viet Nam
by coming to a conference table
and starting to diminish the
fighting.
‘Then they will find out that
we are genuine” in seeking a
Viet Nam settlement, Rusk
said in a public response to Ha-
noi-Peking charges that the lat-
est U.S. peace proposals are a
swindle.
The secretary of state spoke
to newsmen after a Ki-hour
dinner discussion meeting with
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
A. Gromyko on Viet Nam and
other East-West issues.
It was their second and final
such meeting prior to Rusk’s
return to Washington on Sunday
after a week at the U.N. Gener-
al Assembly......-—:—

The results of these programs

The review of policies was re-

In China’s Red Guard
Youths Taught Revolution
HONG KONG (AP) - Red
China's rampaging Red Guards
were formed as a vehicle to
teach revolutionary ways to
youths who never had experi-
enced revolution, the leader of a
Japanese delegation to Peking
said Saturday.
The report of former Foreign
Minister Zentaro Kosaka of Ja-
pan coincided with a broadcast
dispatch from Peking that the
Red Guards now are taking mil-
itary training, along with huge
assignments of political study,
all based on the theories of Mao
Tse-tung, the Chinese leader.
The youthful Red Guards
have been storming through
Chinese cities trying to uproot
all old customs and habits and
replace them with new ones.
Kosaka, who led his 11-mem-
ber Japanese tour group across
the border into Hong Kong Sat-
urday said government officials
told his group about the Red-
Guards.
