§! ‘and. Volunteer Organize Zone Fire Call System Fifteen fire companies of the 16 in Zone 7, plus the Mt. Joy-Elizabethtown Forest Fire Crew, recently have placed in service a zone-wide central alerting system which operates through the base sta- tion (KGC751), located on Donegal Springs Road, Mount Joy. The station, operated by John Henry Lutz, handles calls for Mount Joy, Florin, Rheems, Ironville, Elizabeth- town, Salunga, Silver Spring, Mountville, Columbia #1, Keystone, Susquehanna, Vig- ilant, Shawnee, Marietta and Maytown. Landisville, the only other company in Zone 7, previously had become a part of the Greater Lancaster central alert system. Zone 7 firemen recently have purchased installation of a twoline, two button hold rhone for calls. Six fire com- panies — Mountville, Silver Spring, Elizabethtown, Florin " Ironville and Rheems — will be going on ‘first line ser- vice” in the very near future " and have listed the zone tele- phone number in the new telephone directories as 653- 2001 as the proper fire call numbers, Anyone reporting a fire in those areas will be us- ing that Mount Joy number. When the call is made, the dispatcher will determine the proper company to call and will make the radio contact necessary. It will no longer be neces- sary for each company to have its own phone systein for fire calls. Each company has -a monitor in its fire sta- tion which is capable of acti- vating its house siren when the encoder in the base sta- tion is activated for that par- ticular company. Also, many firemen have monitors in their homes on which they can receive the call and’ loca- tion the moment it is given. Too, as’ many companies as necessary can be called as necessary. Several ambulance services in the zone are also anticipa- ting hooking into the system. ROTARY .. Mrs. -Jean Wedge, director of the Information Referral Service of Lancaster, was the speaker at the Tuesday luncheon meeting of the Mount Joy Rotary club, held at Hostet- ‘ters. ~ She explained the nature of the service she represents, saying that it attempts to pro- vide people in need with di- rections and help in locating the human assistance agen- cies best suited to give them aid.

Eshleman 16th District—Pennsylvania The United Nation's vote which admitted Red China and ousted National China was the first major change in that international body in its 22 year history. It was an action which disappointed me personally, but one which I think demands a rational ra- ther than a punitive response on the part of our country. However, I do think that we must respond to the real- ignment of power in the U.N, We should not do what some Congressmen have advocated and withdraw our backing of the world organization. But neither should we accept what has taken place with- out reassessing our political and financial role. The Red China vote pre- sented us with several new realities in the U.N. Above all, with the admission of Red China, we have the reality that a new major power has been added to U: N. deliberations. And, with the way that admission came about, we must accept the reality that the era of United States predominance within the U. N. is probably at an end. Those realities should be at the basis of our national reassessment. = Because the Joycee-ettes October Meet On Tuesday evening, Octo- ber 19, the Mount Joy Joy- cee-ettes held their monthly meeting at the newly-comple- ted Jaycee headquarters on East Main street. To start off a year of in- formative and educational programs, the guest speaker for the evening was Albert Kleiner, a representative of Borough Council. He told the history of Mount Joy and, with the aid of diagrams and a detailed plan, explained the structure and operation of the local government. ‘Mrs. Ronald Hawthorne then opened the business meeting and the following committee reports were giv- en: Hoagie sale, Mrs. Michael Aument; Messiah home and Ingathering, Mrs, Andrew Reymer; Fashion show and Community Council, Mrs. Jo- seph Heckert; Halloween par- ty, Mrs. Larry Gainer. A motion was passed to hold a mother - daughter Christmas party which wil include the exchanging of gifts. The party will be held Tuesday: evening, Dec, 21, at the home of Mrs. Carl Hall- gren, Pastors Make Pulpit Exchange The Rev. Donald M. White- sel, rector of St. Luke's Epis-- copal church, and the Rev. Ned J. Heeter, rector of = St. Paul's Episcopal church, Col- umbia, will exchange pulpits for the late service on Sun- day, Oct. 31; .. Father - Heeter will - prea. h in St. Luke's for the Family Morning Prayer and Sermon service, which begins at 10:30 a.m. He has been rector in Columbia for the past five years and is very active in community affairs. He serves on the police force in the bor- ough and is a candidate for the columbia Area school board. Father Heeter moved to this area from St. Matth- ew’s church, Sunbury. Sight-In Day Larry Stankowski, Mt. Joy Sportsmen Assn. rifle range chairman, has announced that the 1971 ‘‘sighting-in day” is scheduled for Nov. 7. In case of rain it will be held the following Sunday afternoon, Nov, Ide Anyone interested in assist- - ance to sight his rifle in should be present on this day nations of the world have now shown that they are ca- pable of demonstrating their political independence within the General Assembly, it may be time for us to ask that they also demonstrate their financial independence. The best way of doing that would be to ask that all states now be required to pay up back debts owed for U, N. activi-- ties. This would assure that a revitalized U.N. based up- on political individualism al- so will be a responsible U.N. based upon fulfillment of ob- ligations. We also must consider that the addition of Red China to the world body should result in a drastic change in the entire budgetary picture of the United Nations, Nation- alist China, as a member state, was picking up about 4 percent of the operating costs. That assessment was based upon her representa- tion of the Whole of China and her national income of approximately 5.5 billion dollars. On tre other hand, Red China has a national income of 121 billion dollars. There- fore, as the representative for the whole of China, she should be capable of picking up a larger portion of the U.N. operating costs. There is a good deal of evidence that the United States has been picking up a disproportionate share of the U.N. expenses for too long. Perhaps one reason we have been willing to do so was that we recognized the inabil- ity of our ally Nationalist China to pay in accordance with the power she held. However, with the drastic change in the U. N. picture, Congress may consider revis- ing our spending for U.N. ac- ivities downward in propor- tion to Red China's ability to pick up a greater share of the operating budget. In other words, it seems to me that the recent vote in General Assembly gave us an opportunity to downplay our financial role in the U.N, not as a punitive measure but as a rational reassessment of the reality that our politi- cal role there has been grad- ually eroded. It is time for us to realize that the U.N. should not be an American plaything, but also time for EDITORIAL Ecology Tough Places Ecology has its rough places, too! Smoke in the air is one of the most obvious pol lutions which the public can recognize and a great deal is being made of the problems of emissions. Smoke stacks, exhaust pipes and other places which send visible amounts of colored discharge into the atmosphere are under attack. Such pollutions as noise (until they become nearly unbearable); phospates, and others are not nearly as visible and thus not as constanto concern as smoke. As regulations move in on control, one of the local effects will be upon small foundries, of which there are many in this part of the world. Already, some in the area have made the decis- ion to suspend operations rather than to face the tremendous expenses of installing emissions controls. They are tremendously expensive. Others still are battling the problem, trying to make decisions. The problem is on Mount Joys door step. There are foundries in the community and they are involv- ed. Large foundries—especially those which .have connections with larger organizations — are not as vitally influenced. They, apparently, have ways of overcoming the financial problems which aren’t im- mediately available to the small operations which dot the area. Ecology will not be an easy part of our lives. There are going to be some very rough places. BLEW $200,000 A wire service recently distributed a feature about a family which inherited $200,000 two years ago. The gist of the story was that all family mem- bers joined in a spending spree and enjoyed squand- ering this large sum, now gone. ; The mother told a reporter who asked how they would handle the money if they had another chance that the family would probably blow it again! One assumes this philosophy is supposed to represent something happy or jolly or funsome. Impressionable people, see through such philosophy for should, however, especially youngsters, what it is—ridiculous. The sum of $200,000 invested in tax-free municipal bonds could bring a family $15,000 a year. That's more than $1,000 a month, tax “free, equivalent to almost $20,000 a year and would represent permanent security. The current trend among many—to live as if there is no tomorrow— is as unwise as it always has been.
