PAGE 10 — The Newberry Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, Dec. 18, 1969 BY THE WAY . . . (Continued from Page 1) and man. ing of both government and man. There is another interesting aspect to the war which I hope you will consider. In my opin ion, our intervention in Viet nam is at least as defensible as our intervention in the Dom inican Republic. We went to Vietnam—or so we thought—to give people the right to choose their government without exter nal, or externally-supported pressure. In the Dominican Re- pubic we intervened to uphold those who had overthrown the only elected government the country had ever had. But there was little campus outcry against this venture, and I can only wonder if it is because it was fought at little cost to the young. I do not blame you for not wanting to fight a war you oppose morally. But moral re sentment should not wax and wane with the degree of per sonal sacrifice involved.

DONE THIS 16th day of De cember, 1969. CLARENCF SHEALY, JR. Mayor, l ty of Newberry Seal campaign near $24,000 Contributions to the Christmas Seal Campaign of Area Six, which includes Newberry Coun ty, have reached almost $24,000 to date. Over 30,000 reminder letters have been sent out since De cember 1st, once again urging those who have not yet contri buted to do their part in the fight against tuberculosis, em physema, and other diseases af fecting breathing. The impor tance of working toward the eradication of these diseases, and fighting against air pollu tion cannot be emphasized too strongly, Area Six officials said. “Remember to give generous ly to the 1969 Christmas Seal campaign and to use Christmas Seals on all your holiday mail,” is the message from Dr. Neil Truesdell, president of the Area Six Tuberculosis and Health As sociation—“It’s a matter of life and breath”. To crusade for safety Gov. Robert E. McNair call ed today for a “crusade” aimed at reducing the number of high way fatalities in South Carolina during December. His endorsement of “Decem ber—A Month for Special Care on the Highways” launched a multiple-media campaign coor dinated by the S. C. Highway Department to keep down the number of fatalities in Decem ber, a month of heavy travel and a month with about 80 fat alities in recent years. When December began last year, there had been 909 fatal ities in 1968. Th year ended with a total of 997 highway fat alities. On November 30 this year, there had been 898 fatalities. Fatalities were down two per cent at a time when travel was up seven per cent over 1969. But, as the Highway Depart ment points out, the month of December is critical in terms of potential fatalities, unless a concerted effort is made to re duce accidents. Gov. McNair, Sen. Henry B. Richardson, a legislative leader in the cause of highway safety; Col. P. Frank Thompson, com mander of the South Carolina Highway Patrol, and Brantlee Price of Newberry, Miss South Carolina, have made television and radio spot announcements calling on South Carolinians to drive with special care during the month. Mini-posters will be distribut ed throughout the state by the South Carolina Highway Patrol. CAROLLING PARTY AT ST.
