Missionaries Killed—
(Continued from page 1)
Salisbury, Rhodesia’s first
black archbishop.
“At Musami a blow has
been struck not only against
the missionaries but against
the suffering and needy
African people,” Archbishop
Chukaipa said.
“I condemn this evil just
as the Catholic bishops have
repeatedly condemned all
violent action against the
innocent in the course of the
struggle now being waged in
this country.
“Those responsible for
crimes like that make a
mockery of whatever good
ideals they claim to serve.”
The archbishop called the
murdered missionaries friends
and servants of the African
people. “I grieve,” he said,
“for them, for their relatives,
and for the bereaved people
of the area where they
worked.”
The mission, about 50
miles from Salisbury, consists
of a primary and secondary
school with 400 boarders and
300 day pupils, a training
hospital, a teacher-training
college, and two convents.
The head of the St. Paul’s
Mission team, Jesuit Father
Mark Hackett, was on two
months’ leave in Britain when
the attack occurred.

Creating Community
BY DR. ELLEN L. BURNS
The Georgia State
Legislature now in session is
concerned with many issues,
some more controversial than
others. Those bills concerned
with benefitting the aging will
in the long run affect most of
us. Our aging population in
the state now consists of
nearly 400,000 persons and
the number grows daily.
Throughout last summer,
members of the NRTA-AARP
Georgia State Joint
Legislative Committee
worked closely with local
NRTA-AARP leaders, state
legislators, the Governor’s
office and other groups to
develop a coordinated
legislative program that
reflects the views and meets
the needs of their
Association’s members and
Georgia’s older citizens.
In late September the
Joint Committee met to
establish a legislative package
for 1977. Two of their
objectives have been realized
in the introduction of HB
57/93 on Generic Drugs (this
provides for the
therapeutically equivalent
and less expensive drug for a
brandname prescription drug
except when the physician
writes “Do Not Substitute”
on the prescription) and of
HB118 on Property Tax
Relief (this would provide
Georgia homeowners over 65

with a tax credit or rebate for
the amount of property tax
which exceeds 5 percent of
the total household income).
Another success is SB. 101
providing for full funding of
the Retired Teachers Pension
Bill. AARP/NRTA can also
be credited with the
introduction of HR 39-178
providing for the elimination
of mandatory retirement of
public employees on all levels
and phases of public service --
state, county, local. What the
bill is saying is that a removal
from the job market should
■and must be based on
functional qualification and
not on age.
Other pending legislation
introduced through this
lobbying force are: HB 61
concerned with catastrophic
health insurance coverage to
take effect when health costs
for an individual would
exceed $5,000 in a calendar
year ($7,500 for a family);
HB 90 and HB 91 would
provide for the removal of
physical barriers and
obstacles that limit
handicapped individuals’
access to public buildings and
to polling sites; HB 302
provides for voter registration
by mail; HB 123 would
amend the current law that
makes persons 65+ ineligible
for jury duty and also would
exempt older persons who
would so choose from serving
when summoned for jury
duty.
All studies on the aging
indicate that their greatest
need is in the area of
transportation. Since 42
percent of the senior persons
in the state of Georgia live in
rural areas, this need is even
greater for these isolated
individuals. Likewise aging
persons who choose to live in
their own homes in urban
areas have difficulty making
dental and doctor’s
appointments and even
getting to the supermarket
once a week. The poorer the
persons the greater their
need, for the most part.
The temporary provision
by the state legislators for
senior citizens to be able to
ride school buses from 9:30
until 2:30 is not adequate.
This takes much coordination
and bus drivers not on the
educational payroll. Besides,
most school buses have steps
that are too high for elderly
persons; they are not
provided with guard rails and
other protections. The ARC
subcommittee for
transportation for the aging
and the handicapped has been
recommending a trial
“Dial-a-Ride” program. This
system has been used in other
parts of the country with
great success.
If you are bored with the
cold weather, we would urge
you to pick up the phone and
call your representatives and
senators and urge them to
consider these requests of our
senior citizens. Even though
you may not be bored, we
feel this is our social
responsibility as citizens and
as Christians.
