I However, one new appeal from Washington deserves our special attention because it involves the welfare of the youth of our community. This new appeal is from Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfield, who warns of the alarming impact of the halfbillion- dollar-a-year mail order business in pornographic and obscene material now being carried on I- through obscene P.UrWI.&uUn &Son OXYGEN EQUIPPED AMBULANCE SERVICE Phone McHenry 63 [ Save More by Shopping at Home In urging more effective legislation at the national level in a recent presentation to the sub-committee of the House post pffice and civil service committee, the hard -hitting postal executive said more than laws are needed if we are to wipe out the massive movement of the type of material so ruthlessly purveyed among our youngsters. ' He cited recent confiscation of tons of lewd . motion pictures, filthy books and pamphlets, and objectionable circulars advertising the availability of this material to all age groups but aimed primarily at the youth of our country. The Post Office department, whosfe vigilance in this matter has never been questioned, established new records in criminal prosecution of the "merchants of filth" during the past year but its efforts fail to make a dent in the tremendous trade, however, only by public support can postal authorities and local enforcement agencies hope to combat this evil. Mr. Summerfield recommends that each citizen appoint himself a committee of one to report every piece of objectionable material to the local postmaster. The postmaster ,in turn, will present the matter to the Post Office department's inspection service. A letter of complaint, signed by the citizen, along with the envelope in which the material was delivered, is all that is required. That -- we think -- is a fair enough request from the Nation's Number One Mailman who is doing his best to keep this filth out of our mails. 4-H News 4-H CARDINALS The 4-H Cardinals are extra busy these days preparing for the McHenry county fair, Aug. 6, 7, 8, and 9 at Woodstock.
