apparent, and because of the
Department’s existing activity
in registering wholesale drug
outlets, the Division of Public
Health Education began to
accept requests for its part-
icipation in drug abuse pro-
grams in schools, teacher
training programs, civtc or-
ganizations, etc.
During this twp year period,
the Division has had instructors
traveling to various parts of
the state presenting an educa-
tional concept of drug abuse
control.
To date, more than 500 such
classes have been held with an
audience of some 50,000 stu-
dents.
The actual course consists
of showing one of several films—

deluge of orders and queries.
In the words of a late news repolrt, “A New
Jersey floral broker inquired about handling
the sage in large lots. Another Eastern broker
saw sagebrush as a new Christmas favorite
that would rank with juniper andbolly. Farmers
in Florida, New York, and Kentucky wanted
to grow sage for sale/’ Founders of the new
sagebrush enterprise think sagebrush might be
sold for use in firewood and pressed logs.
It took imagination and initiative to see in
the sagebrush covered acres of the West an
opportunity for the development of a new busi-
ness—in sagebrush. It is the kind of initiative
and Imagination that keeps the country a going
concern.

The theme of ‘‘People Who
Need People” can be translated
in several ways:
The people already involved
in helping the retarded need
additional people to help in
their work.
The nation’s six million re-
tarded, themselves, need people
to speak and act in their behalf*
Thousands of potential volun-
teers need to know how their
own lives can be enriched by
serving the needs of so many
people.
And the retarded are most
of all, the people needing people.

INITIATIVE
An interesting column entitled “Private InJ
tiative Item of the Week” might well provk
inspiration and hope for a lot of people who,
today, are discouraged by the bureaucratic
obstructions to the free exercise of individual
opportunity that have been raised on every side.
Certainly if such a column were started,
one of the first subjects of Interest would be a
new enterprise that has sprung up in the
deserts of eastern Oregon.
Sagebrush has become the basis of a new
enterprise for three Oregon residents who
have formed a sage-growing and shipping busi-
ness. The new business placed a coqple of
advertisements in national magazines and news-
papers offering sagebrush fol sale. It got a

A new and long overdue kind of consumer
protector has appeared in Washington, D.C.
He is an accountant who is registered as a
professional lobbyist for the American public.
His goal will be to undertake to protect the
public against the inequities and abuses of the
power of taxation.
As reported in The New York Times, the
accountant gave the following among the reasons
why he appointed himself Yas a tax protector
of the public. In the last three years, the
average American’s salary has risen sharply,
but his spending power is less. He got tired
of hearing government bodies and business
firms “trumpet that they must grow or die”
while average citizens were not allowed to prow

film depicts a “pot party’’being
raided by the police. As each
person is taken from the party
to awaiting patrol cars, each
expresses his or her thoughts
about smoking marihuana and
defends the use of it.
As the film progresses, how-

Drugs! How many times
have you heard the word?
Abuse! Just what does it
mean?
Taken together “drug abuse”
is probably one of the most
talked-about topics in Texas
and the nation today. The
topic is attacked from various
sides—law enforcement, mo-
rality, punishment. It is also
attacked from another side-
education.
It’s this attack which has
been launched by the Texas
State Department of Health’s
Division of Public Health Educa-
tion. The Department has long
felt a very real concern about
this growing menace to the total
population because of its direct
implications to public health.
About two years ago the De-
partment became aware that a
serious deficiency^xlstedinthel

The whole idea of the educa-

students think about the dangers
of drugs.
The State Legislature has
now charged the Texas Educa-
tion Agency with the responsi-
' blllty of establishing a com-
prehensive drug, abuse program
for students in grades 5 through
12, assuring student exposure
to the subject. The State Health

or even to maintain their status quo. He became
tired of being told the trouble is “a mysterious
abstraction called Inflation” when it seemed
clear to him that the real problem was “un-
disciplined, uncoordinated and unchecked taxing”
at all levels of government.
The kind of tears that consumer protectors,
especially the breed that hold public office,
shed over the sufferings of consumers at the
hands of the nation’s producers and distri-
butors of necessities and luxuries could only
come from a crocodile.
There is little sincerity in their concern as
long as they persist in ignoring the far-greater
consumer problems of taxation, government
spending and inflation.
