•to stop dump
with the words “I’m a little
shook up.” A voice bom the
crowd shouted: “We’re
shook up 100, Harry!”
Reno Thomas, minority
spokesman on (he House Ag
Committee, said the case
they were viewing was a
“classic example of the kind
of farm condemnation H.B.
111 would help prevent”
Thenhe 'Wamedr“Allw&
need to do is keep taking the
best land away’ from food
production and ’Mrs.
Housewife’ won’t like the
prices she’ll have to pay.”
Petitions were made
available for signatures, and
are probably still open if
anyone wishes to place bis
name on them. One such
petition was passed around
at the District 5 meting of
Inter-State Milk Producers
on Thursday afternoon.
Before the rally; was over,
it was emphasized that the
Refuse Authority already
owns the 58 acres in question
by virtue of the Declaration
of Taking they filed earlier.
Therefore the battle is far
from over. Attorney Heinley
said, “Now we have to
cisenfranchise them
(LARA).”
C
State Representative Noah
Wenger, ended his com
ments with “We have been
paying lip service to con
servation of farmland for
years, we’re going to have to
do more than that.’’
Among the other groups
which are actively giving
support to the Barleys are
the State Grange, the
Pennsylvania Farmers
Association,- the Penn
sylvania Farmers Union, the
Soil Conservation Service
. s,
tv
and the Agricultural Ex
tension Service. On Thur
sday night, at a meeting on
the Millersville State College
campus, the Conestoga
Valley Association also
came out in favor of finding
alternatives to the Creswell
landfill. A resolution was
passed by the CVA to try and
save the Barley farm
through a combination of
legislative action, re-cycling
and the use of Lachester
t .andfill on the Lancaster-
Chester county line near
Honey Brook.
The CVA joined legislators
and other groups in en
couraging that opponents to
LARA’s plans attend a
LARA meeting this coming
Tuesday afternoon; attend
the March 23 meeting of the
Manor Township super
visors, and visit LARA
members personally.
Last year, working women
earned a median income of
$6,957, compared with
$12,152 for men. Since 1962,
the number of women
lawyers has more than
tripled in this country, and
the number of women
physicians has increased
two and a half times.
Woman make up 40 per cent
of the U.S. Labor force but
hold only 19 per cent of the
jobs in management.
