Star-Tribune Monday, Dec. 27, 1971 India Disclaims Refugees of War DACCA (UPI)-India's special envoy to the Bangla Desh government Sunday disclaimed any responsibility for several hundred thousand non-Bengali Moslems in East Pakistan, most of whom have been denied food and supplies by the new government. D.P. Dhar told newsmen that Indian troops would not provide security for ethnic minorities such as the Bihari Moslems or ensure the relief efforts offered by the International Red Cross. Their fate, he said, rested solely in the hands of the Bangla Desh government.

Armed Bengalis have prevented food supplies from reaching two large settlements of Biharis west of Dacca and have killed those who have tried to get out to find food. The Bangla Desh government has ordered the Red Cross not to try and get food aid to them. Dhar, India's cabinet-level foreign policy planning chief, said the Dacca government has assured him that food, medicine and security would be provided for the non-Bengali groups, many of whom had supported West Pakistan in the 13-day war in the east that ended with Pakistan's surrender Dec. 16. "You must remember that the wounds are fresh," Dhar said.

"Some of those wounds were inflicted on the Bengali people by those who are now complaining Mills Resident Dies at Age 34 Kenneth W.

(UPI)-Houseto-house surveys to measure background radiation levels will begin here soon to help officials determine the extent of radiation caused by artificial situations such as uranium mining or the use of uranium mine tailings as landfill in other western Colorado cities.

Delta was chosen for the study because it rests on the same geological formations as Grand Junction, Rifle and Uravan, Colo. Emissions of radon gas, a radioactive substance, because of these artificial situations, has resulted in local concern over potential long-term health hazards. G.A. Franz III, health physicist and project coordinator for Colorado's indoor radon detection program, said information gained in Delta could be compared to that found in the other three cities to determine the exact extent of radiation caused by the artificial situations.

His career as an educator took him to Denver, Chicago, Omaha and St. Louis at different periods of his life. From 1936 to 1944 he was at Regis. For several years after that, he was away from Denver on missionary and retreat work, returning in 1949. During his latter years, Fr.

Murray was a counselor and a chaplain, dealing mostly with students. His knowledge of Denver history contributed greatly to the college and the public. Services are scheduled for Tuesday at the Regis College Student Chapel. There were no immediate survivors. Over- Tourist Figures Show Gain CHEYENNE, Wyo.

(UPI) While the number of visitors to Wyoming's two national parks dwindled, the overall tourist travel increased in Wyoming during 1971, Wyoming Travel Commissioner Frank Norris Jr. said Tuesday. Norris said those visiting Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks tended to stay longer and use the facilities more than visitors had in the past. Yellowstone, the nation's oldest park which celebrates it's 100th birthday next year, saw visitation drop seven per cent. Grand Teton surpassed the three million mark in visitors, but had an overall 2.2 per cent decrease.

Fort Laramie National Historic Site reported its best season ever, as did the Buffalo Bill Historial Center in Cody and Cheyenne Frontier Days in Cheyenne. We Believe Each. Family Should Decide for Itself Planning a funeral service is a personal matter requiring individual decisions. To make certain each family makes selections according to its own needs and wishes, we at Bustard's believe Such decisions should be made in family privacy, with full information, and with opportunity to consult with the clergy or others who may be helpful. We are committed to NSM's Code of Good Funeral Practice which assures freedom of selection.

It is another reason why so many Casper area families select Bustard's, with confidence.

They made their home in' Salem, for two years and then returned to Weston County where they lived in the Elk Mountain area for many.

years. During the past few years, Mrs. Mann lived in Newcastle because of poor health. She was preceded in death by her parents; one daughter, Darleen, and a sister, Della Williams. Survivors included a son, Virgil, and two grandchildren, all of Buffalo, and a brother, Fred Sweet of Beaver Creek.

She was an active member of the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Golden Age Club. Two scientists and a professor of English went into no little detail on how inner aggression serves people constructively. They addressed a symposium which featured the opening day of the 138th meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. At the AAAs meeting last year a similar symposium bore down heavily on the destructive role of innate human aggression in war and other violence. There was some feeling science had explored only the evil side.

Sunday's accented the good. Hospital Employe Dies at 55 Mrs. Gladys Gillum, 55, died suddenly Sunday of an apparent heart attack in Memorial Hospital. She was born Oct. 15, 1916, at Minden, grew up and received her education at Fairmont, and married Benjamin Franklin Gillum in Denver in 1945.

Traffic Pattern Stays That troublesome traffic pattern around the new Post Office probably won't be changed anymore, City Manager Ken Erickson said. At the time Street east of Center was changed to a one-way street, Erickson said other traffic patterns might be tried if this one didn't work. Wednesday as Christmas traffic converged on the Post Office, Erickson said the one-way system was working as well as could be expected and wouldn't be changed. "There is some traffic tie-up for Christmas," said Erickson, "but not as much as there would have been" in the days when was a two-way street. He said Postmaster Emerick Huber told him the original drop boxes at the end of the parking 1 lot next to Wolcott now are' getting only 20 per cent of the traffic.

'The new mail boxes on the curve on Street get the other 80 per cent, indicating people are using them, Erickson said. Dr. Edward D. Joseph of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York City, began with aggression as thought rather than as action when the thought, any thought, is both non and non-destructive, it is a useful channel for the discharge of aggressive behavior, he said. Aggressive is instinctive in people but he defined it as an "approach to" any number of situations in normal and ordinary life.

"An 'approach to' is a necessary part of both the continuation of life, the attainment of pleasure or the achievement and satisfaction" of the self interest of the mind, he said. Psychoanalysts have been among the principal students of human aggression and Joseph, who is one of them, wondered aloud if they "have emphasized the hostile and destructive aspects of aggression, at the expense of overlooking the equally or perhaps greater importance that it may play in human adaptive behavior 1 in both human mental development and human interactions." Vocational School Gets High Priority CHEYENNE, Wyo. (UPI) Wyoming residents feel a high priority should be given to vocational education, according to a survey published in this month's edition of "The Wyoming Educator." The survey, sent to some 1,900 persons, showed legislators were the strongest supporters of vocational education. It also revealed strong feelings for such programs by the younger respondents. Younger respondents also strongly favored drug education, but the report said only 43 per cent of them felt drugs were a problem in Wyoming schools.

The young generation also showed stronger support for adult education than the adults. Other areas receiving strong, overall support in the survey were sex education, environmental education and the study of Communism. Only one-third of the replied attributed wise spending to school administrators, but 54 per cent of those returning the questionaires said they would favor a tax increase if schools could show a need for the money. Only 28 per cent of the people questioned felt education opportunities in rural and urban areas were equal, with 94 per cent of them favoring more equal opportunities.
