REPORT FROI\11

CAPITOL HILL

BY CONGRESSMAN WILLIAM D. HATHAWAY

SHOULD THE U.S, GO METRIC? In 1968 with its passage of Public Law 90-742, Congress au­

thorized a three-year, u.s. Commerce Department study of the_ feasibility of a nationwide shift to the metric system of wetghts and m.<::asures. Too many observers, the shift already seemed long overdue -- the U.S. was then and is now the only industrialized country of the world which has· not committee itself to going metric. Today, we've still not committed our­selves. But the study is now nearly completed and when its ;indingsa re anno_unced in August, it's generally expected they-11 be accompamed by the recommendation that the change­

ober is in order. . A number of polls taken of various groups over the past se­veral years have ,shown, surprisingly perhaps, that more A­merican businesses and industries favor a switch to metric than purpose it, Surprising, becuase the changeover itself is going to cost plenty in terms of the time and effort it will take to adapt to a new calculation method, and the money it will take to retool and replace equipment.

Take the farming industry, for example. Earlier this year, . FARM JOURNAL magazine asked a number of its subscribers what the difference would be in ordering anew 4. 2- meter cut­ter-bar for a combine header, as opposed to a 14-foot cutter bar. The answer was: "No difference, of course. But what will eventually happen is that the engineers, to take advantage of numbers, just. as they do now under the inches-and-feet sys­tem. Instead of a 14-foot header, they might make a 3 or 4 or 5-meter header, and the new parts won't fit the present mach­inery."

Still, supporters of the switch-- and these include such na­tional farm groups as the Farm Bureau and the National Farm­ers Union-- say the long-run advantages will far outweio-h temporary inconveniences. "'

How soon . can the United States switch to metric? Well, as­suming Congress accepts the expected Commerce Department recommendation in Qugust, it could enact measures to get the ball rolling before year's end. Periods for total changeover in other industrialized countries have averaged about 10 years.

In the Congress, Tennesses Representative and chairman of the House Small Businessmen" may face in the vent the U.s. decides to go metric.

The purpose for tqe hearings is to assure that if the metric system is adopted, our small business firms will have the nec­essary technical and financial assistance to enable them to re­main competitive ln both domestic and foreign markets during the transition period. Your views on the prospective switch could be of great help to the Committee's work. If you share them with me by writing to my Capitol Hill office (329 Cannon House Office Building Washington, D. C. 20515), I'll enter them into the hearing's offical record.

Congressional preparation of this kind could help head-off many of the problems other countires have experienced in the old proverb instructs: "A gram of prevention is worth a kilo­gram of cure. "

U. OF M. NEWS A total of 1, 226 persons were

candidates for undergraduate and graduate degrees at the 142nd Commencement of the University of Maine at Orono ThursdayJune3. The, total in­cluded nine doctoral c-andidates

132 master's degree candidates and 1, 125 uPrlergraduates. In addition, 10 certificates of ad­vanced study and 17 certificates for completion of the five year Pulp and Paper course were distributed.

PINE TREE CAMP FILM WINS NATIONAL A WARD "Pine Tree Camp", a film made this past summer for the

Pine Tree Society for Crippled Children and Adults, has won a coveted, first prize award in national film competition.

The 1971 American Film Festival, the largest such compe­titionofits kind in the coun1Ty a nd sponsored by the Education­al Film Library AssociaLic>n, Inc., has awarded a Blue Rib­bonforthe16mm, color movie, according to Pine Tree Society public relations director, B<'Lr ry A. Bornstein.

"The producer of the film , Envision Corporation of Boston, has notified the Society that ihu film, a depiction of life at a camp for handicapped children, will travel throughout the country on a Blue Ribbon Circuit to be viewed at hundreds of: public and private libraries," said Born&tein. "We are both proud of the recognitionthatthefilmhas achieved, and the further exposure it will receive. "

Bornstein stated that the Society asked the Envision Corpor­ation to make the film before the summer of 1970, after it was decided that an up-to-date presentation of the camp was need­ed. "We have one of the best facilities of its kind in the country. Persons throughout the United States seek information about. this recreational- rehabilitative summer camp outside of Water­ville, and the film was one way of dramatically protraying the facility in only fourteen minutes," the public relations director continued. "However, it took three hours of raw film and eight hours of tapes to get what we wanted. "That's a lot of coffee and sore eyes. It's a real tribute to the people at Envision sho put up with some of our less than cinematic ideas."

The idea behind the film is one of basic optimism. That hand­icapped and crippled youngsters can live a normal life and ex­perience the same kind of happiness as the next person whose limbs may be straight and whose speech is clear. "All you have to do is listen to the kids talking during the film. Not one word is rehearsed or set-u-. The optimism really comes through, and 'you don't wonder why the film won au award," said Bornstein.

Presentations of the film will be made to any group or organ­ization by just contacting the Pine Tree Society for Crippled Children in Bath. Although the film has been presented several times on TV stations throughout Maine during the recent Eas­ter Seal Campaign, and has been shown often to private groups, there are still those who have not viewed the movie who may avail themselves of such a showing.

NEW GLORY FOR OLD GLORY

THE TOWN CRIER

The Sunday School of the Park Street Methodist Church held a picnic and outing at the ground of the Milo Primary School.

The affair, which was well at­tended, was arranged by the Commission of Education of the Church.

The picnic took place last Sat­urday.

************* In the Spring of 1972, the U.

S. space agency will launch the first Earth Resources tec­hnology Satellite. With photo­graphic equipment and other sensing devises it is expected to firid miner als, spot dis­eased crops while they still look healthy, pinpoint wildlife populations, migrations and over- grazing, analyze rock and soils, and hidden sources of pollution will be detected, according to the Maine Audu­bon Society.

June 14 is Flag Day. It is time to reflect on giving new glory to "Old Glory".

Our nation is presently being swept by a "Flag Mania" which serves no other purpose than to split this proud land into fac­tions.

On one hand, the radical elements desecrate our Flag in ev­ery conceivable manner while on the other the super-patriots have made a fetish out of it.

Equally as bad are the opportunistic businessmen who make a small fortune out of the situation by painting, sewing, embos­sing, engraving and stamping the Amer ican Flag on every con­eel vable item for sale to both groups.

The great majority of loyal. sens ible Americans are right­fully incensed at the way these factions misuse the Flag and their voices are being heard loud and clear as they ask for sterner, tighter regulations and penalties which are sorely needed to curb such disrespect.

The majority consists of people who have an intelligent, sin­cere understanding of and full appreciation for the ideals and mstitutions the Flag symbolizes. In contrast, the radicals see the Flag as a mere piece of colored cloth. They are so engros­sed in being antogonistic that they have missed the meanings and the great history associated with it. They view the Flag as a ''t ool" which they can utilize in attempting to defile and destroy anything and anyone in the path of their rebellion.

The super- patriots are also a blot on the American scene be­ause they have gone to .extremes and seek to enmesh us in 'Flag Worship" - blind excessive adulation of the National

Emblem whereby we would.witness a form of sheer idolatry. The super-patriot is too often convinced that the only specific

segments of America have a monopoly on patriotism. Such an outlook is sheer fooEshness and cannot be condoned· by the ma­jority of clear thinking AIPericans.

Our National Emblem should be properly displayed and cor­rect respect should be shown to it and, until recent times, the .Yederal Flag Code has served admirably as the guide to our yitizens concerning existing rules and customs pertaining to the display and use of the Flag.

' .f Many Americans are now flying the Flag 24 hours a day - ev­ery day in the year, as if it had been permanently nailed to the flagpole. Cont'd on Page 11

Yet, the Federal Flag Code cites three reasons why they shouldn't: (1) The Flag should only be displayed from sunrise to sunset. ( 2) The Flag should not be flown in inclement wea­ther. (3) 'J'he Flag may be displayed at night only upon special occasions when it is desired to produce a patriotlc eff~ct.

Half-staffing of our Flag has also been a problem area across America.

The Federal Flag Code informs us that the Fla<T will be half­staffed until noon vn Memorial Day (May 30). No other occa-­sion is mentioned.
