Editorial from the Columbus Telegram dated September 16 1976 argues for freedom moral action and responsible living. It emphasizes self control and rights endowed by a Creator and cites the Golden Rule and the Declaration of Independence as guiding principles.
A telegram argues the United States faces an economic threat tied to energy supply. It contends oil and gas cannot be easily replaced, overregulation harms exploration, and a shift to private enterprise is essential to avoid economic chaos and ensure fuel access.
In Columbus readers express gratitude for the Billy Graham column and praise for the Jerry Lewis Telethon team. They name VFW Auxiliary members volunteers and local sponsors, note a total pledge of 1928 dollars, and request more volleyball coverage alongside football reporting.
A Carter appearance in Hollywood sparks claim that rural Georgia lacks care. Plains lies are disputed with Sumter County facts including hospital, nurses, and a nurse mother. The piece notes the campaign office knew the Times had quoted the statement and offers a deeper explanation.
The excerpt discusses Carter's misleading yet non perjury safe statements about Webster County and its access to physicians and pharmacies. It contrasts campaign rhetoric from 1928 and 1934, noting humorous and skeptical commentary on political spin and party leadership during that era.
Arlington's Tomb of the Unknown Soldier continues its solemn watch as four million visitors honor unidentified World War I II and Korea dead. Rep Paul Findley notes a Vietnam veteran reports no Vietnam Unknown, no medals, no display, prompting him to act.
The article criticizes Rep Findley and 41 colleagues for proposing a Concurrent Resolution to inter an unknown Vietnam War soldier in Arlington. It notes vast Vietnam casualties and argues unnamed remains may be identified later, urging respect for those who served and cautioning against erasing their identities.
Bernard Siegan argues against windfall and wipeout compensation in zoning. He notes zoning alters land values by restricting uses and points to differing demand in places like downtown San Francisco. He warns such schemes add regulation layers and undermine the profit motive driving rezoning.
A humorous column explores bootleg booze in a hearse and the rising cost of building a dream house. It also jokes about stenographers and their opinions of bosses and the impact on married life.
