Box 60 THIS OFFICE IS CLOSED ALL DAY ON SATURDAY Wednesday, March 26, 1975 Easter The Resurrection Luke 23:50, 55-56 Luke 24: 1-9 From The Living Bible Then a man named Joseph, a member of the Jewish Supreme Court, from the city of Arimathea in Judea, went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

As the body was taken away, the women from Galilee followed and saw it carried into the tomb. Then they went home and prepared spices and ointments to embalm him; but by the time they were finished it was the Sabbath, so they rested all that day as required by the Jewish law. But very early on Sunday morning they took the ointments to the tomb and found that the huge stone covering the entrance had been rolled aside. So they went in but the Lord Jesus' body was gone. They stood there puzzled, trying to think what could have happened to it.

Suddenly two men appeared before them, clothed in shining robes so bright their eyes were dazzled. The women were terrified and bowed low before them. Then the men asked, "'Why are you looking in a tomb for someone who is alive? He isn't here! He has come back to life again! Don't you remember what he told you back in Galilee that the Messiah must be betrayed into the power of evil men and be crucified and that he would rise again the third Then they remembered, and rushed back to Jerusalem to tell his eleven disciples and everyone else what had happened. Money To Burn? "Although government can serve a worthy purpose, it is now almost out of control It comes neatly packaged in the guise of handouts and subsidies and protection from competition, but beneath the ribbons and bows is a lumbering, clumsy giant that is threatening the liberties and smothering the spirit which were once the foundation of America's These were the comments of U. S.

Secretary of the Treasury William E. Simon in recent speeches and are worth repeating. Government at all levels in the United States now employs one out of every six members of our work force. It has become the biggest single employer in the country, with more personnel than the auto and steel industries and all other durable goods manufacturers combined. In Mississippi alone, government employment figures have climbed from 8.4 percent of total employment in 1950 to 12.3 percent in 1960, and 17.9 percent in 1970.

A sad commentary lies in some of the projects for which this large employment agency known as federal government is spending our tax money. Here are just a few items: $32,459 to officials in Kenya for purchase of extra wives; $375,000 to study the frisbee; $76,000 each for "low houses for low income residents in Washington, D. $35,000 to chase wild boars in Pakistan; $2 million for a luxury yacht for Tito; $203,979 to City of Los Angeles for travelers aid to migrants lost on the freeway; $37,314 for potato chip factory for Morocco, which has no potatoes; $19,300 to study why children fall off tricycles; $1 million for Air Force to buy a simple tent which blew away after a few hours service. Part of the massive growth of government over the past few years is due to the proliferation of federal and state regulatory agencies which in many cases has led to higher prices and a lessening of economic freedom. The Federal Register, in which regulations of agencies affecting industry are promulgated, bulged to more than 25,000 pages over the past few years.

One regulatory agency, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, in the first year of its existence, laid down 15,000 commandments. The growth of government in this country, our dependency on it for initiative, its overregulatory effect, and its inherent ineffeciencies and waste of money threaten to destroy our basic economic system. These trends must be halted. Citizens must demand that useless spending of tax dollars be stopped and that government at all levels--local, state, and national be cut back and streamlined. Without these actions, our existence as free people in a society of choice with a system based on individual initiative and competition may be coming to a close.

Grand Jury- (Continued From Page One) day of March, 1975. in and for Newton County, Mississippi, do hereby submit most respectfully the following as being our report: "We entered into session on and considered various matters coming before us, and we have now been in session for 3 days, and have examined 51 witnesses; and we have returned unto the Court 17 true bills of indictment. "The dockets of the Justices of the Peace of Newton County, Mississippi, have been examined by us, and we report that the fines collected by the various Justices since the last term of Circuit Court in this County have been accounted for. It is our report, and we find that the said Justices have returned unto the County Denosiiory the sum of $36,185.75 since the last term of Court.

"Being charged by the Court to do so, we called before us the county superintendent of education, director of the Department of Public Welfare, chancery clerk, circuit clerk, sheriff of Newton County, and county forester, and made inquiry into the functions of their offices and to the exercising of their duties. We are pleased to report that these individuals have performed their duties and the responsibilities of office are being executed in a lawful manner and in compliance with regulations. "We investigated the Courthouse, and we want to announce that we are impressed with the manner in which it is being maintained. "We found the floors, restrooms and other parts of the building to be in a clean condition. We note that persons have dropped their cigarettes on the tile floors and have caused damage thereto.

We urge the law enforcement officers to observe those committing this act, and we recommend that they be severely punished so that the punishment will serve notice to other offenders, and will deter them from damaging public property. "We inspected the agriculture building, and we found, as did other Grand Juries, that the building is in a very poor condition. We recommend that immediate action be taken toward the renovation, repairing and general cleaning of the building. The building leaks and is in a general deteriorated condition. It is our opinion that the Board has had ample time to take the necessary steps in correcting the conditions that have been brought to their attention by other Grand Juries; and we feel that they should give a report to this Grand Jury or its foreman of their action in this direction by Carmichael(Continued from Page 1) development." He said expensive fuel is going to send people and industry running from the East and Mideast toward Mississippi with its good climate and untapped resources.

"We will have to be careful," he said. "I don't want Mississippi ruined in the years ahead. We've got to make sure this influx doesn't put Mississippi in the same mess the rest of the country is in." The candidate, who ran unsuccessfully as a Republican against U. S. Senator James 0.

"We acknowledge that we have a new circuit judge, and we want to commend him for the charge that was made to us on the opening day of Court.

Unto Judge Roy N. Lee, we pledge our support and cooperation, and we look forward to his directions as our new circuit judge. "The Sheriff and his deputies have been cooperative with us during the time we have been in session, and we would like to express our thanks to the circuit clerk and her assistants for the way they have assisted us during this period of deliberation. "Having completed our report, we respectfully request that we either be discharged or recessed, subject to recall by the Court. This the 19th day of March, 1975."
