Obedience To Law...
A Lesson In Self-Government
The late President Hoover made
the following statements in an ad-
dress before the 33rd Convention of
the National Congress of Parents and
Teachers in Washington, May 1929:
Your program covers the broad
relations of the Home, the School,
the Church, and the State. You ask
me for a message about the relation
of the State to the others:
The State is all of us. Some of us
have no home, some have known no
school, some are outside the Church.
The State alone embraces all of us.
It is the one family to which we all
belong, either by birth or adoption. It
is the one loyalty we all acknowl-
edge, the one shelter we all enjoy,
and the one discipline we must all
accept.
Let me emphasize its discipline.
We have achieved so much of liberty
that we are seldom conscious of
restraints. We resent restraints when
we encounter them. I would not see
our freedom less; but self - govern-
ment implies that those who govern
themselves shall not only make their
own laws, but shall also obey them.
We have repudiated the right of
others to rule us,- then we must rule
ourselves. The alternative is anarchy.
Obedience to law is thus the
first duty of the citizen of a self-
governing State. As with other dis-
ciplines, it must begin in the home
and be continued in the school. No
conception of one's personal duty to
the State needs more emphasis just
now.
y. ri
The growth of crime threatens
us all. It is in large degree the belief
of some that the people do not wish
to have the laws enforced or that we
cannot enforce the laws made by
the people; or that a citizen may
choose what law he will obey. Un-
less such illusions can be dispelled
the whole of our liberties are lost.
Therefore, it is not only by pre-
cept to the young, but also by the
example of their parents and teach-
ers, that obedience to law should
be taught as the first lesson in self-
government.
Who Is The Real Boss?
Here's a question we'll bet you
could ask a thousand working peo-
ple and get the right answer. The
question is: "Who's the Boss?"
There's only one boss and
whether a person shines shoes for a
living or heads up the largest cor-
poration in the world, the boss re-
mains the same.
It's the customer. Here is a per-
son who pays everyone's salary and
who decides whether a business is
going to succeed or fail.
And he doesn't care if a busi-
has been around a hundred years.
The minute it starts treating him bad-
ly, he'll put it out of business.
The customer has bought and
will buy everything you have or will
have. He’s bought all of your clothes,
your home, your car, pays for your
children's educotion and your vaca-
tion.
He pays all your bills, and he
pays them in exact proportion to the
way you treat him.
The man who works deep in-
side a big plant on an assembly line
might think he's working for the com-
pany that writes his pay check, but
he is not.
He's working for the person who
buys the product at the end of the
line. In fact, the customer will fire
everyone in the company from the
president on down.
And he can do it by simply
spending his money someplace else.
This is one of the reasons why tak-
ing pride in our work is so important
to us personally.
Aside from the joy that comes
from doing an exceptionally good
job, it will help get more customers,
keep the ones we've got, and insure
the weekly pay check.
Some of the largest companies
that had flourishing business a few
years ago are no ionger in existence.
They couldn't ... or didn't .
satisfy the customer.
was.
They forgot who the boss really

Dear Friends:
I have a request to make,

Dear Mr, Poehler:
It was a great pleasure for
me to read your article in the
October 20 issue of the A /i v i 1
Herald. I remember reading the
stories you submitted from New
Fountain in the early files of
the paper which I often referred
to during the days when I was
editing every week, and partic-
ularly when I was preparing the
items for the 50, 40, 30, 20 and
10 years ago column.
I thought a lot of F I e t c h -
er Davis also, as I found him a
fine man and one who built a
wonderful foundation for the
newspaper which I purchased
from him. My only wish is that
you were still able to write to
us every week, as I can tell
from the story you gave Mrs.
McDade that you have a lot of
writing ability.
Sincerely,

As a veteran, November 11
will have special significance
for me. I will be proud to join
with other veterans in the ob-
servance of Veterans Day, when
the entire nation will hopefully
spend some time thinking of the
supreme dedication offered by
our fighting men, past and pres-
ent, and contemplate their own
special dedication to the cause
of peace.
It disturbs me greatly to
think that there will be a num-
ber who mock the meaning of
Veterans Day and, indeed, have
already shown their scorn for
those willing to fight to pre-
serve the freedom of the people
of the world.
But dwelling on the brighter
side, I am happy this year that
we can note progress contained
in the Veterans'Pension and
Readjustment Assistance Act of
1967 recently signed by Presi-
dent Johnson.
Attention to the interests of
veterans won't stop here in Con-
gress with this accomplishment.
The Veterans Affairs Commit-
tee of the House of Representa -
tives is waiting for final passage
of the Social Security Act be-
fore it begins hearings on the
subject of veterans’ pensions in
relation to Social Security pay-
ments.
That Committee has also
been given exclusive jurisdict-
ion over national cemeteries
and the Committee on Interior
will no longer deal with this
subject. Hearings will be held
in the near future affecting pol-
icies in all of our national cem-
eteries.
I intend to continue my in-
terest in all legislation affect-
ing veterans and their families
as the session progresses.
Last week saw tremendous
activity and productivity as far
as legislation in the House of
Representatives was concerned.
Each bill considered was of
great importance to the people
of our District.
FLOOD INSURANCE
I am sure that most of my
colleagues remembered with
real concern t h e devastating
damage done to South Texas
by Hurricane Beulah, its torna-
does and subsequent floods,
when they voted on the Flood
Insurance Act.
I worked for and supported
this bill, which will enable
homeowners and small business
owners in flood-prone areas to
protect themselves from great
loss due to forces beyond their
control. Previously, they were
unable to purchase flood insur-
ance at reasonable premium
costs because of the high risks
such insurance presented to in-
surance companies. The bill
as passed by the House of Rep-
resentatives will require close
cooperation between insurance
companies and the Government.
In order to get the opera-
tion started, under the Hourly 1
appro^d bill, the Congress wil£>
be called upon to make annual
appropriations as needed to in-
sure that premiums will not be
prohibitive and that prompt set-
tlement of claims may bemads
Another bill which was
passed by the House last week
will, if approved by the Senate,
rescind the import quota of ex-
tra long staple cotton from the
United Arab Republic and Su-

dan. These two countries sev-
ered their diplomatic relations
with the United States recently
during the Middle East crisis.
These quotas will be assign-
ed to American farmers and thus
we will have more long staple
cotton acreage under cultivation
in the United States.
MEAT INSPECTION
Another bill of great signifi-
cance which was passed last
week was the Meat Inspection
Act. Under the provisions of
this bill, American meat con-
sumers will be assured that the
meat they purchase is whole-
some and disease-free. The
measure will result in closer
cooperation between Federal
and State agencies.
During the debate on this
bill, it was pointed out that the
majority of the Governors of
this nation and State Depart-
ments of Agriculture have
pledged their full cooperation
In seeing to it that more strin-
gent meat inspection procedures
will be put into almost immedb
ate effect.
AIR QUALITY ACT
Another bill which was
passed by the House almost u-
nanimously was the Air Quality
Act of 1967 which is intended
to establish procedures to set
up standards for emission of for-
eign matter into the air we
breathe.
Several states already have
strong regulations on the su b-
ject. California, because of
the tremendous amount of
smog, already has struct rules
which provide mandatory at-
tachment of emission control
devices on exhausts, carburetors
and crankcases of automobiles.
This will will in no way in-
terfere with rights of the states
to pass their own laws in ac-
cordance with local needs pro-
vided that minimum Federal
standards, as established by this
Act, are complied with. In
many ways, the Act is similar
to the Water Pollution Act
which is already on the statute
books.
