Roberfs-BIue-Barnetf Joins Move To Halt Relocation Of Alpine Cemetery BULLETIN Congressman Joseph Skubitz reported shortly after noon today that his office has been notified that the Corps of Engineers has decided not to move Alpine Cemetery because of public opposition.

Residents of the Marais des Cygnes River valjey near Olivet have gained the support of Congressman Joseph Skubitz in their fight to stop the relocation of Alpine Cemetery. The cemetery is near the projected new Melvern Reservoir. It is inside an area proposed for development as a public use recreation The Army Corps of Engineers had planned to move the cemetery out of the recreation area, but protests from the public have held up the project. More than 200 residents attended a gathering in the Olivet School last week to hear a discussion of plans to move the cemetery, but public opinion stfll seems to be strongly against the move. On Saturday Congressman Skubitz sent a telegram to President Lyndon Johnson and to commanders of the Corps of Engineers, Here is the text of the telegram; "Upon receipt of scores of letters, telephone calls and a petition protesting the relocation of the Alpine Cemetery located in the proposed Turkey Point public use area around Melvern Reservoir I called the office of Colonel Kratz and requested that he send one of his representatives to attend a meeting at Olivet, Tuesday, July 2nd, to hear complaints and attempt to settle this matter to the satisfaction of the citizens in the area.

It is apparent from my mail and subsequent calls that this matter was not resolved to the satisfaction of the local people. I therefore made further calls and sent my district administrator to the area to visit with the interested local citizens. There isn't any question hi my mind that the people are aroused and angered over the relocation of their cemetery. They do cot oppose the recreation they oppose only the relocation of their dead and want a suitable protective fence built around the cemetery. In my opinion this is a reasonable, less costly and sensible request.

This cemetery is not in a recreation area where thousands of visitors come weekly and in my opinion the fears of vandalism are somewhat magnified. If the cemetery were in a large metropolitan area I could understand your position. I urge the immediate reconsideration of your position to relocate the cemetery. Construct a suitable fence to protect the cemetery and leave it the way the people wish." "if Driver Is Injured In Accident Today One driver was admitted to Newman Memorial County Hospital after an automobile collision at 9:30 o'clock this morning at Ninth Avenue and Chestnut Street Cars involved were a Volkswagen driven by Dennis N.

He was 76 and had been in failing health for some time.

He had become something of a hero to many young intellectuals. Despite his signing of protest petitions, Paustovsky was honored by the government last year with one of its highest awards, the Lenin Prize, recognition of his "contribution to the development of Soviet literature."
