THE COUNCIL RECORD
High Cost
Of Vandalism
Dear Editor,
I am writing this letter to
set the record straight. In
doing so I will use an epithet
you so obviously enjoy. It is
the "bottom fine."
In the third paragraph of
the September 14, edition
"Editorial -- On the County
Budget Hearing," you imply
you were unable to hear
what was being explained.
Fact: I was sitting behind
you and I heard all that was
said; but then, I was there to
listen to the proceedings.
In the fourth paragraph of
"Editorial -- On the County
Budget Hearing," you state
other emotions when refer-
ences to State laws were
made.
there, write articles and
editorials, but didn't take the
time necessary to check and
report all the facts.
Again "a long standing,
and valuable newsp a p e r
adage has once again been
confirmed and all editors
should take heed: Don't
print Self-serving h a n d-
outs. ' '
Sincerely yours,
Robert D. Lawrence
EDITOR'S NOTE:
The above letter from
Mayor Bob Lawrence was
Each year thousands of
dollars of damage is done to
public property in o u r
National Forests. C a m p -
ground facilities are defaced
or destroyed, signs a r e
stolen or broken, and build-
ings are forceably entered
and articles stolen.
The replacement or repair
of each item is costing you,
the taxpayer, a lot of money.
You may say, "It's none of
my concern," but it is.
When you see something
that has been vandalized or
is being vandalized, remem-
ber how many dollars you
pay in tax money. Some of
these dollars are used to
correct the damage you have
just seen. You can do some-
thing about vandalism and
theft without endangering
yourself. Collect all informa-
tion you can, such as license
numbers, vehicle or personal
descriptions, location, time
of day, and names if possi-
ble. Give the information to
the nearest Forest Officer,
County Sheriff's Department
or State Police, and action
will be taken to find the
individual responsible f o r
the damage. If you wonder
that you "experienced a presented at the Record what happens then, let's
feeling of sadness," and office just 30 minutes before take an incident that hap-

correct. They can be proven
if you'd care to test them.
In your reference to the
Commissioners raise o f
$1,300.00 plus," you distor-
ted the facts again.
In order to come up with
your figure, you had to be
f i g u r i n g the difference
between the 9 month 1977
budg from January 1, 1977
to September 30, 1977 and
the new fiscal year begin-
ning October 1, 1977 and
ending September 30, 1978
which happens to be a 12
month budget. Even at that,
there seems to be some
wrongcomputations.
It strange that
way, but romit the
whole 1977 budget column of
figures when you so carefully
worked out the comparisons
of budgets in the August 31,
issue of The Council Record.
Fact: As of the hearing
September 6, 1977, the last
raise the commissioners will
be receiving is $41.66 ver
month making a total of
$499.92 per year.
Also in the August 31
issue of your paper you
alleged that the C o u n t y
Budget was increasing by an
inordinate percentage. To do
this you again avoided com-
paring the 1978 budget to
the 1977 budget, and argued
thatt any increase over the
a ,t i o n a 1 inflation rate
constituted proof of exces-
sive spending.
Fact: In order to make
( mparisons you should use
the correct figures.
If you are going to accuse,
Mr. Editor, or perhaps you
prefer to call it question,
don't you think you have a
duty to report ALL the facts
to the public?
In the second paragraph of
the September 14, issue
"Editorial - - On the Council
Meeting," you state "hav-
ing no figures from previous
years made it a little difficult
to analyze."
Fact: I had the adopted
budget for 1976 and the 9
month budget for January 1,
1977 to September 30, 1977
and the proposed budget for
the new fiscal year in front of
me and quoted all figures
you asked for. Where were
your "always neces s a r y,
note pads and pens together
with the trusty tape recorder
and pocket calculator?" So
much for the "bottom line."

August 23, 1977 carried a
letter by a blood--thirsty
relative who wants to get rid
of a 90 year old person
because she is "unwanted".
The catch phrase is un-
wanted human life. How
about mentally and physi-
cally handicapped people if
they are "unwanted"? who
will be next?
This is fact, not fantasy.
Human fife h a s become
If human life in the womb is
"unwanted", kill that life!
That is the official stance of
this formerly Christ i a n
nation. Once this principle
has been adopted as it was
by the Supreme Court, then
only circumstances need be
altered to come full circle to
the killing of "unwanted"
minorities or people declared
troublesome to society.
What can we do to protect
our right to life as we grow
older? Will you and I one day
be counted a m o n g the
unwanted and be put to
death because we are feeble
and unproductive? My right
to life comes from God, not
from society or government.
Go d is the Alpha and
Omega, the beginning and
the end, the Lord of Life and
Death. Thou shalt not kill
applies to the feeble life of
the old, the :tentiouE life of
the unborn, the life of the
totally handicapped and the
totally dependent. ALL hu-
man life around us is holy,
let us respect it. October is
called "R e s p e c t L i f e
Month". During this month
try to discuss this topic with
your friends and renew
your own love for the life that
God has given to you as a
sign of His love for you.
