A former Congress- man has made a valid critic- ism which points up the need for greater reform. He said, “I've seen efficiency sacrific- ed for democracy and democ- racy sacrificed for efficiency, but the House of Representa- tives gives up both and ends up with neither.” The reorganization bill passed last year will help to correct some of the problems to which he refers. But last year’s work must be supple- ented with some additional effort, primarily effort direct- ed at changing the seniority system. There is a good chance that there will be action in the 92nd Congress. Both par- ties have drafted proposals which would change the pro- cedure for picking committee chairmen. The Republicans are almost certain to take ac- tion to end “rule by old-tim- ers’ on their side of the aisle The Democrats seem likely to have a more bitter fight over the issue, and the outcome is less certain. But, neverthe- less, movement finally will be underway in the proper direction. In addition, there seems to be some sentiment in favor of placing a retirement age re- quirement on Congressmen and Senators. Such a change also would go a long way to- ward shaking some of the cobwebs out of the Congress. I believe that the prime role of a legislature is to be responsive to the people being represented. Congress has not been so in recent years. Only reform will restore its vitali- ty and give the American people a renewed voice in na- tional affairs. % Others are Saying (From page 2) at $1.66.

In spite of kicking about inflation, consumers so far have shown little inclination to turn their backs on the conveniences and luxuries that have been brought to them by the world’s most ef- ficient, retail, mass-distribu- tion system. —Lititz Record TH URBAN CRISIS In a new book on urban crisis, Professor Edward Ban- field of Havard (“The Un- heavenly City”) focuses a much needed light of truth on the urban crisis. In brief, Professor Banfield shows that there is less pov- erty in the cities today than where ever has been—contra- ry to the popular belief. In the last decade improvements in housing in the cities has been remarkable, the author shows, and whereas at the turn of the centuy only one child in fifteen finished high school, today most of them do. Banfield believes the pres- ent-generation city dweller lives more comfortably and conveniently that ever before. He does not deny that there are problems, which have al- ways been present and prob- ably always will be, to a de- gree. But he believes many of today’s problems are caus- ed by the failure of people to properly take care of prop- erty, both public and private. He also believes that slop- py and pampered mental at- titude is responsible for much idleness, inferior work and welfare spending. In other words, Banfield sees the Am- erican crisis in the cities to- day as one of human materi- al rather than social services. That being his conviction, he warns against the federal government's turning over the billions to often-crooked and crime infested big-city mach- ines for welfare distribution purposes, and sees the possi- bility that this can become a payoff for bloc votes in some metropolitan areas. ; Before the social planners and do-gooders in Washington channel massive billions to the ciies Banfield’s facts and figures must be allowed. —Ephrata Review SWEETIE PIE ES “Have you got any old worn-out money you don’t want?"
