. 6, - PLAINDEALER - Jon 3, 1968 Law Enforcement Needs There is a growing awareness of the need to improve law enforcement in the United States, and that need is at all three levels of government. Technical advances, court decisions, and a complex society stress the nee<fof intensified training programs for police officers. In the days gone by, training programs were left to the jurisdiction of the local government ^wh&her it be the county, the city, or the township. AS a result, the quality and extent of such programs varied greatly from community to community. Today such programs must be more intensified and on a wider basis; they must take in^many jocal jurisdictions and be on a state-wide basis. The state and federal governments must accept some responsibility for such programs. The national government, through the Federal Bureau of In-' vestigation and the Bureau of Narcotics, has contributed to the training programs of local governments, In 1965 Congress assisted local efforts when it passed the' Law Enforcement Assistance Act, making federal funds available to state and local governments to assist them iri training law enforcement officers. Programs have been started at the state level in many of the states to partly finance the responsibility. In Illinois, local governments that elect to participate in a program, established by a legislative act in 1965 (Senate Bill 664) are reimbursed for one-half of the sum paid for tuition and salary while the trainee is attending the school, or $500 per trainee, whichever is less. Minnesota offers a state-wide training program tuition free, though the local government has to pay the officer's'salary, travel and lodging costs. Washington reimburses local police' agencies participating in the program for half of the officer's salary and half of the living expenses while attending the training school. Police protection is a necessary and essential service of government. This service is being thoroughly challenged today fay the problems of and by a complex society. Taxpayers are willing to pay for the best possible police protection, and this protection today means that the work of a policeman is not longer a "job"; it is a profession in which the personnel must be trained in a variety of skills.

Buying anything for less is sheer extravagance." The above headline answers most of the questions concerning the qualities of good advertising. It suggests what the best of advertising attempts to do. Good advertising helps to educate the reader. It promises benefits which are not apparent. Good advertising sells a product" on the basis of superior service to the consumer. Suits may be purchased for $50 or $20. But are they really less expensive than $100 suits?' Not necessarily. The $100 suit may save money in cleaning and pressing bills. It may last longer than three $50 suits. And more important to many men, the better quality suit i& ^orth more because it always assures a well dressed appearance. Quality cannot be over-worn. Saving by spending more for quality is not limited to clothing. The rule applies to food, appliances, automobiles, housing and other consumer goods and services. Market, researchers have learned that many people who i&ste- money on poorvgortds > n&qhoirt^ >.€orioften have to be* e;du<^te$4p; acg^gM^^^pality. It wa§ a big step for our ancestors'to adopt Fncfror plumbing long after it became practicable. > Today, millions of people with new money to spend could wisely invest in higher quality consumption. The change would result in better and more economical living. But it must be stimulated by persistent advertising on the part of sellers of quality goods and services. r^nge ^Aor tt MONKEY ON HIS SACKS . . .

Ambitious forays of Senator Robert Kennedy on this and other issues have continued to be a thorn in tjfta side of the President dui^l'ng" recent mpnths. Bobby's popularity in the polls -- including the frenzied admiration he enjoys from some nonvoting teen-agers sometimes associated with the hippy or beatnik crowd -- is more than a mere source of presidential irritation. This popularity is regarded by some as a genuine threat to the President's renomination. The sometimes bizarre hearings conducted by the Senate Foreign Relations committee under its chairman, Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, has helped to divide the country on the Vietnam war issue and to furnish the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese leaders with verbal ammunition. Democratic Senators Fulbright and Wayne Morse are quoted daily in the Communist prsss in opposition to our efforts to quell Communist aggression in South Vietnam and to bring the war to a conclusion. The periodic and prolonged Fulbright committee hearings resulted ultimately in adoption qf a resolution which sharply defines the limitations on the authority of the Executive to commit U.S. forces as was done in South Vietnam. Finally the announcement of Senator Eugene McCarthy of Minnesota that he will challenge President Johnson in a number of state Democratic primaries for -the 1968r npTOnaUo^^S ocratic unity. The chances of fragmentation of the Democratic party become more serious daily, with the prospect of an irreparable party split which no amount of cajoling, logrolling or political dealing can heal. This is another aspect of the first session of the 90th Congress %Mch distinquishes it from other Congresses in recent history. The 1968 die has been cast and we may look forward to more action according to this pattern after the second session of the 90th Congress convenes -- in January, 1968.

If you know in advance that your dentists is going to do some extracting, there is a proven dietary method for materially reducing the after-pain. For example: For 24 hours before and 48 hours following the extraction, eat plenty of citrus fruits and drink a lot of citrus juices. Drink at least a quart of milk a day, and eat an ample amount of leafy vegetables. This tends to alkalize the blood 'and improve healing in the bony structures. Meat, fish, fowl, fats, cheese, grains, alcohol, tea and coffee all acid producing foods, should be avoided during this period.
