Rotary Hears Talk About Urban Affairs
Many smaller cities have very
serious problems, the Governor's
Advisory Council for Urban Af-
fairs found, Sam Reed, execu-
tive secretary of the Council told
the Shelton Rotary Club at its
meeting last Thursday noon.
Reed spoke to the group in
place of Secretary of State A.
Ludlow Kramer, who had been
scheduled as the speaker.
The committee, Reed said ,was
created in 1967 and was made
up of 18 appointed citizens and
eight elected officials.
During its investigations, Reed
said, the group visited some 25
communities in the state and
talked to numerous people.
Up to now, Reed said, it had
been the thought that urban
problems were confined to the
state's larger cities, and, this
was where the effort and pro-
grams were concentrated.
The committee found, he said,
that many smaller cities have
very serious problems, and, that
they do not have the financial
or other resources to set up the
programs to deal with these prob-
lems as are found in the larger
cities.
The Committee, Reed said,
made some 193 recommendations
after its investigations by its six
committees.
The State of Washington, Reed
said, is one of the most repidly
growing in the nation. Most of
this growth is concentrated in
the King, Pierce and Snohomish
county areas, while rural areas
in Eastern Washington are los-
ing population.
Another conclusion the com-
mittee reached, Reed said, was
that government cannot solve
most of these problems without
the cooperation of the private
sector of the economy.
Reed said that the committee
found that despite the state's
booming economy, there are still
a certain group which is in a
state of chronic unemployment.
The investigations revealed,
Reed said, that programs which
Slade Gorton Speaks At
Lincoln Day Dinner Here
lib Those who attended the Ma-
son County Republican Lincoln
Day Dinner Tuesday night were
urged by Attorney General
Slade Gorton to take a fresh
look at the principles which
guided Lincoln, whose birth date
was being celebrated.
We repeat the phrases that all
men are created equal, Gorton
said, but do we really stop to
think about what they mean.
Using quotes from Lincoln's
Gettysburg Address, Gorton told
those present that the nation
Youth Held
For Glue
Sniffing
II A 16-year-old Shelton youth is
being held in Mason County Jail
after being found unconcious in
his foster home early Sunday
morning, apparently from glue
sniffing.
Shelton Police were called
by the youth's foster parents af-
ter they found him in his bed-
room semi-conscious.
Officers took the youth to Ma-
son General Hospital where he
was treated. He was later trans-
ferred to the County Jail on
orders of juvenile authoi'ities.
Several empty glue tubes and
two plastic bags were found in
the youth's room.
must stop and think about those
principles in looking for the so-
lutions to the problems which
face the nation today.
He commented that Ed Pratt,
the Seattle civil rights leader
who was shot recently, was kill-
ed by someone who did not
think about the principles on
which the nation was founded.
Gorton commented that the
speech Tuesday night was his
first Lincoln Day address as At-
torney General.
Warren Edinger, chairman of
the Mason County Republican
Central Committee, opened the
meeting.
William O. Hunter was master
of ceremonies for the program
and introduced Gotten.
Hunter also read telegrams
from Go:. Daniel J. Evans and
C. Montgomery Johnson, state
Republican chairman.
