February 2S, WELLSVILLE DAILY REPORTER, WELLSVILLE, NEW YORK ACLD Hears Discussion On Teacher Qualification BELMONT MISS susie Robinson, remedial reading instructor at Friendship Central School, was principal speaker at the meeting of the Allegany County Association for Children with Learning Disabilities held in the Belmont Fire Hall. the speaker said that the personality of the remedial teacher is of equal importance with his professional qualifications. She said that remedial techniques and methodology must go hand in hand with a warm and outgoing personality and a genuine liking for children and 'people. The child must iteaye each tutoring session happy, she stated. "A careful study of the child's background is necessary to entering upon a program with him.

Every learning disabled child should be carefully and individually studied by the teacher to determine his home situation and analysis should extend into the physical, emotional, mental and sociological adaptation of the child," Miss Robinson said. The presentation of this talk continued the organization's series of public informational meetings designed to bring to the attention of parents and educators in the county, the problems of the learning disabled child, to acquaint them with the criteria for identifying the child and to promote action by parents and educators to establish special educational programs in the county! Developing her premise that the remediation teacher must deal with the whole child, Miss Robinson said that a conference with the child during the first meeting should be carefully conducted. Usually at the first session, the child will be asked to Write something about himself. The importance of the first meeting between teacher and child cannot be overemphasized, she stressed. Subsequent meeting should be happy and relaxed with rapport between teacher and child.

Miss Robinson displayed and demonstrated several learning devices, some of which she has originated. "She made (Suggestions as to how parents could adopt some of the devices which can be made from simple materials on hand in the home. Mrs. Frank Horton, president of the association, conducted a brief business meeting. Mrs.

Eben Berry, publicity chairman, spoke of the need of additional members to build the "Power structure" of parental concern which can effectively pressure for special education programs for the learning disabled child. She said that it is a peculiar paradox of human nature that when we are in the most serious difficulties, we should overlook the most obvious means of deliverance. "We look afar and are blind to the power right in our own hands. This is exactly what is happening in Allegany County among the parents of children with learning disabilities," she said. The publicity chairman urged parents to join the county organization (ACLD), stating that every member builds power structure and there is a need for moral and financial support if the group's objective is to be achieved.

The objective is to give each child optimal educational opportunity. 1 Following the meeting refreshments were served at an informal social hour. The March 16 'meeting will feature an officer from the Bureau of Investigation of the State Polite as principal speaker. He will discuss the dangers of narcotics.

275 Mishap A car being towed on Route 275 last night ran out of control, crashed into a snowbank, and overturned, injuring the 17- year-old youth who was guiding it. The injured boy, James E. Carpenter, 4 Windsor Street, Cuba, cpnd.ition^ at Cuba MiembPial Hosjiitaf with a fractured right shoulder. State police said the mishap occurred at 7:10 p.m. yesterday on Route 275, one and a half miles south of County Road 8 in the Town of Wirt.

The youth's auto was being towed north by another car driven by Maurice Carpenter, same address, when it ran off the left shoulder of the road, hit a snowbank, and overturned. Trooper P.M. Carlson is investigating. A unique compliment was given Buddy Ebsen, star of "The Beverly Hillbillies," when the television comedy series filmed some episodes in the Ozarks for the current season. When Ebsen tried his hand at chopping wood he did so well that a native remarked, "That there Buddy, he could work for a living." To the Editor: Concerning the construction of a dam in the Shongo and Yorks Corners area this idea wasn't thought of yesterday.

There has been months of planning on this project. It is just now being put before the people. It has been brought out in the discussions that naturally some people are going "to lose money, 'but others are going to make money as a result of the dam. Who do you suppose is going to make the the property owners whose land is being flooded. I am sure that anyone who wants to find a place to go fishing anywhere around here ''can do" so without spending $37,500,000 and I am not being facetious.

If the Federal Government will pay will the $25,500,000 come from? It was also brought out in the discussion that one of the advantages of having the dam would be to attract tourists from New York City, as this is just a nice day's drive. I think we who live in Wellsville, Yorks Corners, Shongo and Stannards should get together before it is too late and not wait until it is started and then try to stop it as was done with Route 17 in Wellsville.

Nixon Gives US Labor Little Encouragement AP Labor Writer MI AMI BEACH (AP) President Nixon has given labor loaders little encouragement in their demands that he ease up on anti-inflation policies which they say are hurting workers, consumers and the efforts of Negroes to better their lot. "The workingmun must know the dollar he earns is not being secretly eaten away by inflation even as he earns it," Nixon said Monday in a message to AFL- Cl() leaders.

"The result of these few attempts to slow down the economy is higher unemployment," retorted a report of the 1U.G million member labor federation's executive council. And, it added, the hardest hit are hard-core unemployed Negroes and other minority group workers. George Meany, 75-year-old president of the AFL-CU), and other leaders talked pointedly, if politely, with Secretary of Labor George P. Shultz about their mounting differences with the White House. All they got at the windup session of the council's winter meeting was Nixon's message urging their cooperation, and Shultz's oral assurance the President would take strong measures if his economic policies spur any big jobless rise.

"We don't think there is going to be any steep rise, any general rise, in unemployment at all," Shultz said. Nixon's written without mention by ei- Shultz or the. labor leaders in a sheaf of news releases handed to AFL-CK) cooperation in fighting inflation and providing training and jobs for all Americans. Quoting Abraham Lincoln, Nixon said labor is the source of most human needs and comforts. "The central social and economic questions of our time arc: Can we as a free people make that source available to those who have been denied its use and can we maintain a stable economy that will enable all workers to purchase those comforts and necessities without the cruel, hidden tax of inflation," Nixon said.

"This administration says we must, and we can It is as immoral to stop a man from getting a job for which he is qualified as it is to allow a worker to be robbed of his money by inflation." The nation's jobless rate has risen from 3.3 to 3.9 per cent of the labor force, a level ol sonie million Nixon took office and Meany is predicting it could go as high as per cent soon under federal policies to slow the nation's worst inflation in 20 years. PSC Opposed Engineers Plan To WAG RR ner feting; Abandonment Ladies Nlght To the Editor: I am opposed to the school merger because I think it will really benefit only a few, just the students who are above average. The average student and little below average will be left behind and soon be discouraged with school altogether, causing a greater amount of school drop-outs. Friendship really can't afford the merger either. They have old debts left on the present school and buses, they are always having to replace, plus the new debt of the sewerage system.

I see no sense in committing economical suicide when our present system isn't really that outdated. Have the people thought about how big a raise the bus drivers are going to require to transport our children? They certainly won't do it for the wages they get now. How many new buses are we going to need to keep our kids in the new school? They say that our taxes will be cheaper because of state aid to the new school. Where do they think the state gets their money if not from us? How much will our taxes go up after they shut off NOONTIME persons were injured in a two-car accident at the railroad tracks in Scio at noon today.

The PSC's decision came in a published brief of Jan.

6 Interstate Commerce Commission hearing on the proposed abandonment held at the David A. Howe Library in Wellsville. The PSC brief said the commission was convinced of the growth potential of local industries that depend on WAG freight service, and that the commission would recommend to the Interstate Commerce Commission that the abandonment request be denied. The state regulatory board added in its brief that different accounting procedures might have presented a different financial picture of the WAG's operation, perhaps enabling the railroad to show a profit instead of a loss. A third in the PSC's decision was an offer from the Erie-Lackawanna railroad to help subsidize the WAG's operation.
