Today, some people have be gun to question that pledge. Cnme is still very much a part of our everyday lives and feder al action seems to be minimal. There is a temptation to write oft the Nixon crime vow as just another one of those campaign p> omises that never get fulfilled. But. the fact is that the Nixon Administration has acted to curb dime If the efforts appear to have done little good, look to the Congress wheie the propos ed anticrime action has gone largely ignored. To understand what the Ad ministration has done and where Congress has failed, it is first necessary to know those major aieas wheie Federal Govern ment can combat dime There aie thiee geneial areas (1) The Fedeial Government can fight O’gamzed dime (2) It can deal with the skviocketmg crime rate in the Distnct of Columbia (3) It can assist states and localities m impioving law enforcement P esident Nixon has offeied pio posals fo. movement in all thiee categm ics The Wh.te House has called foi stiff measuies to deal with oigamzed dime Even without the lequested new laws, the j Justice Depaitment hrs moved i on this fiont, and big time xack eteenng has been dealt seve.e blows m several sections of the countiy In the District of Columbia the acute sheet dime problem has received much attention Help Child Build Safety Habits Begin the “walking safely” loutme when your child is just a toddler, suggests James E Van Hoin, extension family life spec i?!ist of The Pennsylvania State Univeisity When you obseive c o od tiaffic rules while walking and point them out to your child, he’ll begin to stoie up safety knowledge from the Nixon \dmimstration Several proposals have been put forth for making the nation’s capital safe, including an expen mental preventive detention plan under which a defendent charged with a serious crime could be jailed to await tnal if a judge ruled he might endan ger society if freed on bail. The President also has requested more police, more judges, more prosecutors, more money and a more efficient court system m an effort to handle the crime situ ation in Washington In the area of helping state and local governments fight crime, the President has suggest ed beefing up the Law Enforce ment Assistance Administration The main idea is for the Federal Government to provide more aid toward improving police depart ments, courts and correctional institutions In addition to all of the above antiernne steps, other Adminis tration programs would hit hard at the pornography market and the narcotics trade With all of this grist for the legislative mill, vou should find JBEwatjC "rst 6 ' PRE - SEASON DISCOUNTS NOW Insure obtaining the finest quality and service available Fertilizer spread when you wont it and in correct amounts per acre with our calibrated fleet of spreaders.

Action on crime, I be lieve. was a legislative necessity in 1969 It is a legislative must for 1970. Why no action? The Deno crats who control the Congress claim that they are unhappy with the Nixon crime offerings. They say that the lack of legis lative movement in this area re flects their belief that a better crime package can be developed. I understand that the Democra tic leaders intend to offer some anticrime suggestions of their own when Congress reconvenes. Personally, I welcome those sug gestions because a good crime attack can result from a combin ation of good ideas But. the im pel tant thing is to get the ideas together, develop a program, and get the dime fight undeiway fast Sole Register P.vilion, 6 mi K of Lancaster, Pit Sale managed b\ Penna Gu ernsey Biecdeis Assn FRI JAN. 23—8 PM Public Auction of 80 Reg and Top Grade Holstein Dairy Cattle in the dairy barn arena at the Ab erdeen Sales Company in Chur chville, Harford Co, Md. located on Md.

It's something you plan for by establishing a herd with the genetic potential for good pioduction, then managing and feeding your cows so they’ll produce up to their bred-in ability. Many successful local dairymen also plan for good pro duction with a proven piogram of dry cow feeding. They need Purina Dairy Conditioner, a research pi oven ration to help give dry cows body condition they need for good production after they freshen. Purina Dairy Conditioner is an extra-palatable 12% percent protein ration It’s fortified with vitamins A and D plus extra phosphorus to help guard against milk fever. Purina Dairy Conditioner is low-cost, too, because the amounts you feed depend on your cows’ condition and on the quality of the roughages you feed. For example, a cow dried off in good condition being fed high-quality roughages would require less Dairy Conditioner than a cow in only fair condition being fed fair quality roughages Drop in soon and get your free copy of the Purina Dry Cow Progiam folder.
