ler will continue to

supply. If this proves to be the case — and
filly . revisions are e
Jed to be upward
rather than downward — we will need 14.6
million barrels of crude oil and natural gas
liquids* daily, along with the equivalent of
another 11 million Barrels of natural gas.
This spokesman made another important
point — that there is vigorous competition
for the energy market. Oil and natural gas,
for- example, arfe in direct cbmpetition in
home heating and other fields. Liquefied
petroleum gas also seeks a larger share of the
heating market.* And all these fuels compete
in one way or another with éléctricity. The
consumer has a choice — and the fact that
this choice assures that all the competitors
will work continuously and unremittingly
to offer him the best in economy and service.
Aid to Education Questioned
that the American
people have been generous in their support
of education. Last year, for instance, voters
-- ■ - * . in more than 2,100 elections throughout thé
. nation approved school bond issues totaling
$2,306,000,000. This was a new record.
"So ft certainly is highly questionable if
a massive, federal aid to education program
is either needed or desirable. Beyond the,
huge sums pf money involved, federal fi-
nancial support of the schools would inevi-
tably mean ever-increasing federal controls.
Local control of the schools would be under-
mined and in time might even be destroyed.
This is a fundamental matter. "School
policy has always reflected local needs and
views. Local people certainly have a better
knowledge of what is needed than a distant
administrator. We should thijik a long time
before deeply injecting the federal govern-
ment into education, well-meant as the pro-
grams may be. ' '

Compelling Idea by Newspaper
The Reporter of New Holstein, Wis., has
come up with "a compelling idea.
It/was inspired by the receipt of a mat
sent out by the government on behalf of
the Job Corps which, in turn, is a part of the
war on poverty. The young people entering
ie Corps will be taught trades for which
here is wide demand and will receive room
and board and $50 a month while learning.
The Reporter's idea is to give business
the same-privilege the government Enjoys
in this Instance. As' of now, la barrier to the
employment of the young and the unskilled
lies in high minimum wage and overtime re.
strictions. Private enterprise just can't af-
ford to employ and tram them under these
circumstances.
Says the Reporter: "If an in-shop appren-
THESE DAYS
Self-Sufficiency in Doylesto wn
BY JOHN CHAMBERLAIN
/
Hie domestic news out of Washington, DC.,
these days stresses the give-away. It's money (or
anti-poverty, money for housing, money for every-
thing else. Rep. Barker Conable <R.-N.Y.) refers
to it as "undifferentiated goodness."
But there is resistance to accepting "undiffer-
entiated goodness," even though the stories about
it tend to get blotted out because of the heavy
concentration, of our journalistic talent in the
national capital.
There is the story of Doylestown, in Bucks
County, Pa., for instance, which I would not have
known about if I hadn't known some Bucks County
folks. This chronicle properly begins two years ago
when Mrs. Arthur Baum, the wife of a well-
known migazine writer on business subjects, per-
suaded a town meeting of citizens to reverse its
original inclination to accept an offer of $500,000
from Washington to pay for renovating the down?
town areas in Doylestown.
m* town meeting decided on moral grounds,
as Was explained later in a letter to President
Lyndon Johnson, "that a healthy community such
as ours has no right to accept tax money from
around the country until we had first tried all
Our own ideas and resources to 'solve our own
downtown problems."
Out of the town meeting grew the project called
Operation 64. It was headed by two cochairmen,
Frank X. Shelley Jr., a Democrat, and Joseph R.
Kenny, a Republican,, who delight in aruging with
each other on public platforms. Operation.64 be-
gan by taking photographs of all the storefronts
in Doylestown, which has its mixture of old pr$-
• Revolutionary and Victorian buildings. Then ft
hired a good water colbrist to provide a portfolio
of sketches to show what the old buildings might
beconie if the accretions of age and bad taste
could only be shucked off. ^
The town's merchants, became quite excited
when they saw the difference between photographs
and watercolors. What has happened éince is that
Doylestown has-been remodeled as fast as it could
get «local ]abor to do It. The painters and the
of the area have been busy touching
and tearing off gewgaws that had
! sound architectural plans.
Yon wouldn't know the oldFountain House now,
Mr that oM and dilapidated pre-Revolutionary inn
i blossomed out as an up-to-date furniture store;

at low interest rates. But most of the

tice training program were allowed at rea-
sonable salary rates, a lot of youths today
walking the streets could be gainfully learn-
ing a trade. And they'd do it at no expense
to the taxpaver. However, such a program is
too'simple. There are no bureaucrats mixed
up in it."
But this idea could be a reality, the de-
sires of the bureaucrats notwithstanding, if
it gained sufficient public support. There
are all manner of businesses, big and little,
which would gladly cooperate.' Adequate
safeguards against abuses could easily be
provided by law. And the beneficiaries would
include all the taxpayers — as well as those
young people in sore need of the training
that, will fit them to be responsible and val-
uable members of today's complex society.
Gun Bill Raises Controversy
By BOB CONSIDINE
recommended by Operation 64 without borrowing
aft y significant sums.
As Shelley (Democrat) and Kenny (Republican)
wrote recently to Lyndon Johnson (who should
have been impressed by tWe consensus), "our
Operation 64 program . ¿ . banded together all our
local talents and financial abilities in a spon-
taneous remodeling of store fronts and interiors
up and down all our business streets. Our goal is
now an unprecedented 100 per cent cooperation of
all landlords and tenants in clearing awav accumu-
lated clutter, coordinating colors and adding
plantings.**
The ^cochairmen decided to write to President
Johnson because his daughter, Lynda Bird, had
tatted abotit> Hfer daddy's interest in promoting
"the dignity ÓK self-sufificiencv .." "We are con-
cerned," said Dertroerat Shellev and Republican
Kenny, "with the priste renewal consultants who
are going about this country showing every town
how they can qualify for large amounts of federal
money.
"We hope it would be useful to'your program
of, economy in government, combined with the
dignity of individual improvement efforts, for you
i to have a staff member inspect our program with
the view of placing more stringent regulations oil
those who would ask the Federal Government to
solve all their local problems. We would, of course,
be pleased to come to Washington with our pic-
tures and artist's sketches of our work:"
,The letter found its way to the urban rehabili-
tation desk of Robert Weaver, Housing Adminis-
trator. He was polite about it, but evasive.
But maybe the Doylestown example will take
off on its own. Several Main Line towns outside of
Philadelphia have asked Democrat Shelley and Re-
publican Kenny to show them their pictures and
watercolors of "before and after." The "consensus"
outside of Washington, D.C., may yet do something
to change the "consensus" inside the White House.

NEW YORK (Spl) — Sen.
Thomas E. Dodd, the Connecti-
cut Democrat, wrote an article
for the June Reader's Digest
entitled ".Guns By Mail: A Na-
tional Scandal." It and certain
interviews he has since given in
support of his bill to clamp
dewn on indiscriminate traffic
in mail-order weapons ha$ sub-
jected him to astonishing abuse.
The National Rifle Association
and simi'ar organizations have
aroused hundreds of thousands
of their members to cry out
against sucji legislation. The
members of Sen. Dcdd's Juve-
nile Delinquency sub-committee
who favor the bill have been
immersed in mail. Some of it
is abusive and much of it par-
rots the distorted propaganda
laid down by NRA and other
pressure groups.
All that Sen. Dodd is trying
to get across to the public is
that in this countrv today, as he
pointed out so ably in his arti-
cle. a criminal who couldn't
Very well buy a gun in any
weapons store without alerting
the local police can send to Chi-
cago or Los Angeles, let's say.
and buy anything he wants and
have it shipped to him through
the U.S. mails. Man named Lee
Harvey Oswald did just that.
With one gun he killed a Dallas
coo named Tiipit. With the
o'her he kil'°d the President of
the United States.
We're privileged today to be
able to present expert testi-
mony in favor of -the proposed
leeislatjoti. It comes from men
with a deep stake in the mat-
ter, police chiefs of some of
our major cities. It was col-
lected bv Reader's Digest and
has not been released before.
The chiefs are overwhelm-
ingly in favor of the Dodd bill.
Onlv eight out of 144 reached
in the national study oppose the
legislation. The answers to the
questionnaire are blunt and tell-
ing:
"Texas law requires sellers of
gung must keep register of per-
sons ">guns are sold to in over-
the-counter transactions," wrote
Chief R. A. Miles of Austin.
"But Texas laws do not cover
guns bought by mail order."
Guns, said the chief, give too
many people a "false sense of
security."
That could be one of the
great understatements of our
times, when one recalls the
acts of that nutty little rooster
on Nov. 22, 1963.
"At the present time, anyone
who can write and has the
money can get a weapon
through the mail," notes the
chief of police of Raleigh, N. C.
One would guess that the pur-
chaser need not have to know
how to write, or have the
money, if he had a literate
friend and solvent friend.
Chicago's chief cf police. Or-
lando W. Wilson, supports the
Dodd Bill but takes exception
to the senator's finds that relate
gun ownership to the rise in
crime.
"We have seen no conclusive
evidence to indicate this," he
""replied to the poll. "Crimes of
violence take so many different
forms and are so differently
motivated that it is impossible
to draw any intelligent con-
clusions about the part the
availability of firearms plays."
As an «afterthought," however,
he said that the hazards of acci-
dental shootings and of fire-
arms falling into criminal hands
are Sobering.
None of the chiefs had any
rapport with post office offi-
cials, nor apparently had sought
such a link to check on gun de-
liveries in the'r nreas Thomas
J. Cahill. chief of police of San
Francisco, believes that the in-
cidence of crimes of violence
increases in almost direct pro-
portion with how-easy it is to
acquire guns, particularly
among minors But he would
not prefer a situation such as
in Britain, where concealable
gun ownership is outlawed even
for policemen.

It All Happened ■
In 16 Terrible Minutes
By HAL BOYLE
DA NANG, South Viet Nam
(AP) - It all happened in 16
terrible minutes.
In that incredible fraction of
Sn hour, a U.S. Air Force pilot ,
napalm-bombed -a .target, his
plane caught fire, he bailed out,
landed in enemy territory and
was plucked to safety by a pass-
ing Army helicopter.
"That's the only real , emer-
gency I've had in more than
4,000. hours in the air," said
Capt. Edward F. Gallardo, 33,
of Armstrong Creek, Wis.
"I feel much safer flying a jet '
plane than I do driving an auto-
mobile."
Ed is a dark-haired, F100 pilot
who stapds 5 feet 5, and weighs
only 137 pounds. His wife, Pat,
and their five children — none
of whom is more than 5 years
old — live in Hampton, Va.
The fighter pilot's battle or-
deal came on a recent Sunday
when he had to skip morning
religious services because of an
early mission.
The mission was his 35th in
some 40 days. '
"I was first of our flight in on
the target, some Viet Cong em-
placements 42 miles south of
here," said Gallardo "I came
in fast at 50 to 100 feet above the
ground.
"I pushed what we call the
pickle button to release the na-
palm cans. Immediately there
was a loud explosion, and the
cockpit filled with smpk I
d'dn't know whether I had h?en
hit by ground fire, or something
had gone wrong with the na-
palm.
"But I couldn't see out. My
plane was on fire."
Instinctively, he put the plane
into a climb.
"The smoke began to clear,
but my plane was burning bad-
ly.' I didn't know whether it
would blow up or not. But you
don't bail out over a target area
if you can help it, and I headed
toward the sea.
"I got up to 5,000 feet. At fi,000
feet the speed began to bleed
down. The plane started to roil.
The controls had burned away.
I had become just a passenger,
I had to go,"
The captain jettisoned his
canopy, pulled his triggers and
was ejected.
"There was a big blast, and
the next thing 1 knew I was
floating down about 12 miles
from the target area. It was a
great view and 1 had plenty of
time to think, but all I thought
about was landing in a . clear
space."
Gallardo landed standing up
between two houses in a native
hamlet.
"I hit about 20 fest from a
small boy," he paid. "His eyrs
got big, he made a 18'>degree
turn and ran. I ran in the oppo-
site direction toward a rice pad-
dy, scattering dogs and chick-
ens. I could be picked up there,
but hide in the shrubbery
around it if necessary."
Five planes circled protec-
tively around his position and a
pararescue team scrambled at
the base here to get him. But an
Armv helicopter crew, apprised
of his nlight, picked him up.
"I wasn't on. the ground more
than five minutes," said the
can'ain
That afternoon at 5 o'clock the
captain knelt at Mass in a chap

needs. Overuse of vitamins at
any time of the year is rarely
dangerous, but rather expen-
sive.
How is the public protected
against dangerous new drugs?
A commission on drug safety
collaborates with the United
States Public Health Service
and the United States Food and
Drug Administration in the
rigid supervision and control at
all new drugs
When a new drug is created
by the research of a pharma-
ceutical company it is subjected
to the most intensive study in
animals. If it is found to be
completely safe, with little or
no side effects, a controlled clin-
ical study is then made in hu-
mans.
If the results are satisfactory
' and safe the drug is subjected
to even more critical study by
the commissions before it is
permitted to be used for general
consumption.
The consistent purity of drugs
is under ..constant government
inspection to insure the maxi-
mum advantage and sáfety of
all drugs.

Broadway or in a hayloft—if I
was in good company and felt I
was equipped to play the role.
All professional actors are full
of contradictions By tlie very
nature of their profession th-y
are extroverts who run scared;
show-offs suffering from insecu-
rity; crowd-pleasers who are
likely to wail about their lack of
privacy.
I'm reminded of the New
York ham who, after months of
fruitlessly making the rounds of
the agents and producers, final-
ly landed a two-day job with a
repertory company—and almost
lost his mind because he wasn't
still making the rounds
That probably la a fabrication
or, at least, an exaggeration,
but it provides a partial if un-
fair reason why most men who
ho'd commanding positions in
show business treat actors like
children.
I'm convinced that this alti-
tude comes from the fact that
acting, unlike the other arts. Is
performed und r strict supervi-
sion. In television, particularly,
a rigid re?:mentatlon of ac'ors
is required because of the time
eletnent involved in putting to-
gether s live, filmed or taped
show.
The performer must he
prompt, or he is dumped. He
ro-ust know his lines, wear the
right wardrobe and stand in the
designated spot, or the word
gets araund that he is under
p?ndable
The situation is wholly differ-
ent in the pursuit of the oihnr
arts A painter paints (without
supervision), and his work is
judged on its merits. A writer
writes (without supervision!,
and his output sells on its merits
or is relegated to the trunk.
Creativity, by the television
actor is not generally encour-
aged The actor must perform
according to the outline of his
characterization aa drawn up hy

may never have had him in
