WASHINGTON — President
Johnson, replying to a question
of whether more Cabinet
members plan to resign from
the administration:
"No. I am told that some kids
have been calling around some
of your (news) bureaus predict
ing that. These same boys from
time to time set up strawmen
and then proceed to knock them
down.”
WASHINGTON — President
Johnson, saying opponents of
his Vietnam policy are looking
lor the easy way out:
“A lot of people are looking
for the fire escape and the easy
way out. They were doing that
in Mussolini’s time and they
were doing that in Hitler’s time.
They did not think it was
important to their security until
it was almost too late. We
waited a long time here but,
better late than never.”

T/iis Week’s Editorial
Especially For Women
Lady Senator
Raps ‘Cinema’
Senator Margaret Chase Smith thinks that movies are
sicker than ever.
Moreover, notes the lady legislator from the State of
Maine, moviegoers are younger than ever. Youngsters 19
and under plunk down 52 percent of all theater admissions,
often to see such films as “The Teen-Age Psycho Meets
Bloody Mary,” “The Plague of the Zombies,” and “Birth
of Triplets.”
In an article in the December Reader’s Digest, Senator
Smith characterizes these and other sex-and-sadism movies
as “a menace to children.” Authorities quoted in the art
icle agree. University of Wisconsin psychologist Leonard
Berkowitz notes, “Research suggests that media violence
is more likely to incite children to acts of overt aggression
than to ’drain’ them of their hostile energy.” Frederic
Wertham, consulting psychiatrist for Queens (N. Y.) Gen
eral Hospital, notes that a saturation campaign of “brutal
ity, violence and sadism leads to demoralizing of healthy
instincts.” Phychiatric social worker Eleanor G. Fisher
adds, “Sick sadism in motion pictures can very definitely
be damaging to a normal child’s development.”
The movie industry has a “voluntary classification”
system that is supposed to label films that are unsuitable
for children. But the industry wavers somewhere between
futility and hypocrisy, according to the Digest article.
Example: The MGM-Filmways presentation “Don’t
Make Waves” was classified as “Suggested for Mature
Audiences” by the Motion Picture Association of America,
the industry self-regulating body. Yet MGM sponsored
saturation advertising for the movie in such magazines as
“Teen” and “Ingenue,” publications aimed specifically at
teen-aged girls.
“Futhermore,” argues Senator Smith, “most of our
movies—including a good number of those unfit for chil
dren—are not made by members of the M.P.A.A., nor
are they submitted to that organization for a code seal of
approval or for classification. Thus, the door on degen
eracy and sadism is still wide open.”
“Clearly, the problems of sex-and-sadism movies re
main untouched by Hollywood’s ‘voluntary’ classification
system,” writes the Senator. “Something more must be
done.”
The “something more” is contained in a resolution that
the lady senator has introduced in the Senate. It provides
for labeling films so that, in Senator Smith’s words, “The
public can tell if the film is suitable for youngsters or not.”
It certainly sounds like a step in the right direction to us.
Other steps would include some magazines and some tee
vee.
Non-Urban
Jobs Gain
Things aren’t as bad as many think on what used to be
called “down on the farm.”
Contrary to the popular belief that the growth in jobs is
concentrated in large urban areas, nonfarm jobs in the
Southeast grew at a faster rate in the non-urban areas in
the 1963-66 period, an Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank
economist reports.
(The Southeast includes Alabama, Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee.)
The faster growth, writes Richard Long in the Novem
ber “Monthly Review”, can be attributed partly to a 15-
percent reduction in farm employment and lower wages in
rural areas.
The fast growth in nonfarm jobs reduced the unemploy
ment rate in the non-city areas from 6.0 percent in 1963
to 3.7 percent in 1966, he states. The large number of un
employed farm laborers caused the prevailing differences
in rate.
Another reason for the faster growth in nonfarm jobs,
Mr. Long continues, is that the less urbanized areas had a
larger share of employment in construction, manufacturing,
and government—three sectors which grew faster than
average in these areas.
Manufacturing employment recorded larger gains in
non-urban areas, with an increase of 22.7 percent, com
pared with 16.1 percent for large cities, the economist re
lates. “Durable goods jobs . . . increased more rapidly in
each southeastern state than in the major labor market
areas of that state, even though the fastest growing dur
able goods industries were concentrated in population
centers.” Nondurable goods also grew more rapidly.
Nevertheless, population centers outpaced rural areas in
total job growth because of a faster population increase
and a higher participation rate. But the author clearly
shows that non-city areas are not losing out in the com
petition for new jobs.
There is a great future in non-urban areas in the South
east, as well as in its teeming cities and “metropolitan
areas.”

BERRY'S WORLD
“Actually, women are like

MY A
ANSWER Vi!
Pray For Peace
I notice that a number of chur
ches are praying for peace,
and that the Pope is always call
ing for peace tn his public sta
tements. But can we have pe
ace in a world where there is so
much injustice and selfishness
on the part of nations and peo
ple? F.L.
When Christians pray for pe
ace, they are praying that con
ditions may prevail where pe
ace is possible. Certainly, they
are not praying for "peace at
any price”. Even our Lord said,
"I came not to bring peace but
a sword.” What did He mean by
that? I believe that He meant
that there is conflict in the wor
ld — between good and evil, bet
ween righteousness and unright
eousness. He meant that we
should recognize this conflict.
The Bible says: "We wrestle not
against flesh and blood, but ag
ainst principalities and powers,
against spiritual wickedness in
high places.” As long as Christ
delays His coming, there will be
conflict in the world. Jesus pre
dicted this when He said, “There
shall be wars and rumors of
wars.” War is inevitable as
long as greed, selfishness and
sin live in the hearts of men.
Hence, when I pray for peace,
I do not pray for appeasement
with unjust men, for compromise
with evil, or for peace at any
price. But I do pray that men,
motivated by evil, shall come to
know Jesus Christ. When they
know Him, the causes of war
will be removed, and righteous
ness and peace will reign in the
world.
