Mrs. Galletly Is Speaker The Newberry County Chapter of the Crippled Children’s Society met May 2 with Mrs. Aubrey Har ley in her outdoor living room in the garden, with Mrs. W. H. Ted- ford and Mrs. Pope Buford as hostesses. Mrs. Harley called the meeting to order with Mrs. L. G. McCul lough leading in prayer. Mrs. Ted- ford read the minutes and the fol lowing reports were given: Philip Kelly, chairman of the Easter Seal Drive, reported that the chapter lacked about $200 of ^reaching its goal of $3,000, but he was hoping this would be reached with late contributions. Mrs. J. D. French r -chairman of the nominating committee, sub mitted the list of officers for 1962- 63: Mrs. Aubrey Harley, chair man; Mrs. William Henderson, 1st vice-chairman; Mrs. W. H. Ted- ford, 2nd vice-chairman; Mrs. C. M. Smith, secretary; J. D. French, treasurer; Miss Catherine Ken- nerley corresponding secretary; Mrs. F. S. Elliott, historian and parliamentarian; Mrs. L. G. Mc Cullough, memorials; Mrs. Charles Gray, publicity; Mrs. John Eargle and Mrs. Charles Dukes, member ship Committee; Mrs. Richard Ba ker, Mrs. Emmett Nichols and Mrs. T. N. Parks, hospita’ity com mittee. Mrs. Harley introduced the speaker, Mrs. Celestia H. Gallet ly ,fiel<i representative from State Headquarters in Columbia. Mrs. Galletly explained the cere bral Palsy program, which has been the official program of the State Chapter since 1949 with services to the handicapped fol lowing a three-point framework of care and treatment .education and information, and research. The care and treatment activi ties of the Easter Seal society have included monthly cerebral palsy clinics conducted in the center in Columbia. The examining team is directed by a medical consultant, with reg istered physical and occupational therapists ,a certified speech ther apist, a psychologist, a consultant on special education and a brace maker. Easter Seal treatment centers are in Aiken, Charleston, Florence, Georgetown, Greenwood, Rock Hill and Spartanburg. The Easter Seal family camp at Socareda near Brevard, N. C. is designed to provide recreation for cerebral palsied children, for coun seling and education of parents and families and for those inter ested in working with the handi capped. This camp will be held July 13-16. Anyone interested in going may contact Mrs. Harley. The state-wide sheltered work shop in Columbia will soon be ready for handicapped to enroll for training, Mrs. Galletly report ed. Mrs. Sue T. Rouse, a specialist in teaching the physically and mentally handicapped, has been appointed assistant professor in the University of S. C. school of Education. She will train teachers for the teaching of handicapped children, through the efforts of the Crippled Children Society. The education program provides medical fellowships and seminars for physicians, residents and in terns as well as for nurses. Teach er training packets are given to those teaching handicapped boys and girls. The success of rehabilitation services for children with cerebral palsy is dependent on the parents' understanding, cooperation and participation, Mia. Galletly said. Parents receive individual councel- ing, group study and informative pamphlets. Mrs. Galletly stressed public information to create ac ceptance and understanding of the cerebral palsied child and adult. This, she said, is done through TV, radio, newspapers, films, Easter Seal news and addresses to service clubs. Research, a part of the program of the National Society, is focused on prevention and treatment of physical disabilities and rehabili tation of the handicapped. The S. C. Easter Seal society joins in the effort to support this progress. Funds have been granted to the Medical College of S. C. in Char leston for research. A delightful social period was enjoyed in Mrs. Harley's beautiful garden. Dr. Virgil Sease Died Saturday In Delaware Dr. Virgil B.

In retrospect, the hear ings to date have produced some good results. IN THE AREA of censorship, several procedural changes have been made, and censorship of military journals is much light er. The subcommittee reacted so strongly against censorship of military statements to be giv en on Capitol Hill that censor ship for content has been re laxed, although it should be eliminated altogether. It is now questionable, however, if much censorship will be permitted next year in view of the 2/3 re duction in funds voted by the House for the Pentagon’s cen sors in retaliation against their actions. THE PLBLICATION of the censored anti-communist items has provided much insight into the State Department’s false concepts about the enemy. These fallacious ideas have been pri marily responsible for formula tion of losing policies in the cold war. In fact, a recent New York Times article reported that our diplomats now recog nize that U. S. cold war policies have been based on “false prem ises.” SOON THERE will be more on censorship when State De partment officials return to try to explain why specific items were deleted from military speeches. Their answers will re volve around three main de fenses: (1) sensitive negotia tions (which they say take place all the time); (2) fodder for the communist propaganda mill (if we followed this absurd idea we’d have to muzzle the Con gress and the press as well); and (3) their “good faith efforts to make an accommodation” with the forces of world com munism. IN THE AREA of troop edu cation programs, the Defense Departs mt has now formed a “blue-riL. V advisory commit tee and hais put into effect a new education program which for the first time projects subjects on communism as far ahead as 3 years. For example, a new film, “The Communist Con Game,” has been projected for 1964 to show military personnel that Red promises offering pan aceas to be only a master plan of deception. Also a good film, * Ci.oununist Target Youth,” has been produced, and six excellent anti - communist publications once shelved are expected to be back in use soon. INVESTIGATIVE revelations on the need for better coordina tion with and guidance by intel ligence officers and agencies are producing good results in elim inating subversive materials and substituting better materials and guidance for education pro grams. The investigation has shown that pro-communist ma terial from The Nation maga zine, a book entitled This Mon strous War, which was written by a communist now in Moscow, and a communist propaganda film entitled “Russia” were in cluded in education programs. MORALLY DEGRADING, sa lacious and subversive literature which has been found readily available to our servicemen, par ticularly on service newsstands, has largely been removed, and a new directive entitled “Protec tion of Moral Standards” has been issued by the Defense De partment. The Overseas Week ly, noted for its special empha sis on sex and GI crimes in Europe, has been forced to make some changes in its policies. This unofficial publication should have been removed from The Stars & Stripes delivery system long ago. THE IDEA that military per sonnel should not participate in cold war seminars for the pub lic has been discredited by testi mony. In fact, one Naval offi cer is now being commended for his seminar and troop education recommendations which previ ously had been ignored. His recoaMn—dstiens are being put into effect, and a team of Chief Petty Officers who had taught' the public about communism on its own time in coordination with this officer will seen be back in operation. THESE ARE a few examples of some constructive results al ready attained. No result, how ever, has pleased me as tnuch as the widespread public interest and concern about communism and our weak, vacillating poli cies. This has been my main purpose from the start. Judg ing from the mail, reports in the news media, and my con tacts with thousands of Ameri cans across the country in mak ing 70-odd speeches since last fall, I am convinced that the grassroots sentiment against communism and our no-win poli cies is growing stronger and stronger. This is our country's great hope in the cold war. Sincerely, (Not printod mt govommnU ospento) Hoyt Boland Dies At Age 49 Hoyt A.
