Lines from the Lions Lions appreciate Lowe's support; immigration threatens fabric of country

BUSINESS: Lowe's Marketplace donated the brisket for the Lions' camp fund-raising supper at Riley Ins. The Lions are very gratefu l. Abernathy's Fourth of July celebration was discussed.

Big Day. See you there!

PROGRAM: IMMIGRATION, SPRAWL & CONGESTION Our huge national problem is not immigrants, but the

number of immigrants. During the golden era of immigration from 1925-1965, 178,000 immigrants a year entered the USA. Then Congress changed the immigration laws. From 1965 to 1989 the average per year increased to 507,000.

After 1989 it climbed to over one million per year. We have had to double the number of schools, sewage plants, roads and streets built.

Congestion is tearing the social fabric of our nation apart. Increased traffic, crowded beaches and national and state parks, lost farmland are just a few of the drastic changes to American's lives. California must build a new school every single day of the year, forever , as long as the current immigra­tion level remains same.

We must convince our senators and representatives that this level is national suicide.

By wanting to help third-world countries, we are only help­ing a tiny, tiny few of the vast number of people that also need help. We are draining many of their brightest people who could be helping their own country.

The effect is we are killing our own country. Unless we return to the 1965level of immigration, our population WILL grow to over 404 MILLION by 2050! (We are currently at 275 million.)

Let immigration return to the nourishing stream it once was instead of the rampaging river it is now. Please contact your senator and representative soon.

Total coliform l>uclc riu are used ns indicators of microbial contamination of drinking water because testing for them is easy. While not discase·causing organisms themselves, they nrc often found in associat ion with other microbes that are capable of causing disease. Coli form bacteria a re more hardy than many disease·causing organisms; therefore, thei r absence from water is n good indication that the water is microbiologically safe for human consumption

Fecal coliform bnctcria nnd, in pnrticular, E. coli, nre members of the colifo rm, bacteria group originating in the intes tinal tract of wnrm·blooded animals and arc pnssed into the environment through feces.
