For Your Information National Purpose Needed By VIRGIL PINKLEY Editor and Publisher Now that we are into a new year it would be a magnificent goal for 1964 if we made individual and collective efforts to bring about better understanding among Americans. We urgently require a national purpose. This nation needs genuine unity in these dangerous and critical hours. There is need for compassion and mutual respect. We must not permit divisions within our country, or to turn one group of Americans against another. There are enough challenges from abroad without adding internal dissensions and bitter hatreds. We tend to be a nation of extremes. There is too much violence in our beloved land. We are radically for or rigidly against. We are on the mountain tops or in the deepest and darkest valleys. Quick To Condemn For much too long there has been a growing practice in this country to hurl sweeping terms against those who do not think and act exactly as we do. We condemn without knowing the actual facts. We repeat what we have heard, not what we actually know personally to be the facts. When such charges are repeated they frequently are exaggerated and slanted. We do not practice the basic American principle that all men are innocent of charges until proven guilty by due process of law beyond a reasonable do not support these pronouncements. Radio and television and magazines — and, yes, some newspapers too — engage in bitter and slanted charges. Room For All There is nothing in the Constitution which says that a man or woman must be of a certain religious faith, or that their skins and eyes must be of certain sizes and shapes, or that their economic theories must adhere to a self-supported economic view. Whenever treason, sabotage or subversion against the United States are involved, these are matters of grave concern which should be dealt with swiftly and fully. If we are to create a better atmosphere of tolerance in which Americans may live and work more efficiently and productively, the job has to start with the individual and the family unit. Most necessary and worthwhile accomplishments in our society start thus. We look to governmental leadership, the church, or the schools to correct our numerous shortcomings. Basically the job is yours and mine as responsible citizens. Challenge To Parents Parents have a special challenge and obligation. They need to establish values and virtues for their children and work with them so that they will be understood and followed. There should be ground rules which are fair, clearly defined and strictly enforced. We have suffered serious juvenile delinquency, our governmental graft and corruption and our tendency to steal "just a little." Our measuring stick all too often how rich someone becomes what the individual contrives to our society, his character abilities, or his real achievements. Some of us are not much interested in whether fortunes were made fairly; honestly—only the end result. The daily headlines chro these developments. Too Much Crime Radio and TV, especially latter, continue to present much crime, too much sex, much violence and too many corruptions. They feature relations between Americans. Magazines live solely by such appeals. Smut is prudent and sent through the mail mails, much of it addresses youth. Here again hair and divisions are appealed in the most subtle ways. Hat and lewd appeals are subscribed for compassion, fairness, understanding. The extremes in which we gaze, to the radical left and far, far right, are clawing at the very vitals of a stance and united America. As we work and pray a year, we could all remember with advantage the words The Great Book: "Whatsoever things are true whatsoever things are false whatsoever things are good whatsoever things are love whatsoever things are of great report... think on these things..." and act exactly as we do. We condemn without knowing the actual facts. We repeat what we have heard, not what we actually know personally to be the facts. When such charges are repeated they frequently are exaggerated and slanted. We do not practice the basic American principle that all men are innocent of charges until proven guilty by due process of law beyond a reasonable doubt. Many of us pay lip service to the Golden Rule. We prattle about fair play. But our deedsours — yours and mine as responsible citizens. Challenge To Parents Parents have a special challenge and obligation. They need to establish values and virtues for their children and work with them so that they will be understood and followed. There should be ground rules which are fair, clearly defined and strictly enforced. We have suffered serious breakdowns in moral and spiritual values.

Broadway, Anaheim PHONE KE 5-4105 Answers to key questions about the investor-owned Answers to key questions about the investor-owned electric utility industry and the all-electric future Does electricity actually cost less today? Edison electricity stands out as one of today's biggest bargains. It's a somewhat astonishing fact (to most people accustomed to ever-rising costs) that the average cost of a kilowatt hour of electricity to Edison residential customers is 28% lower today than it was in 1939! Due to efficiencies and new techniques developed by the investor-owned utility companies, and aided by the increased use of electricity and the steady swing to all-electric living, the cost of residential electricity in America has trended downward. The chart above shows the national cost picture for residential electricity over the past fifty years. Did you know you have a "stake" in the investor-owned electric utility industry? There are two major sources of electric power in the United States. Number one is the self-supporting, investor-owned utility company. The other: the tax-supported government operation. Edison is one of America's 400 investor-owned companies, owned by and responsible to 4 million American shareholders directly—and to many millions more indirectly. For example, if you have a life insurance policy, the company may invest a portion of your premiums in electric utility stock, giving you an indirect financial Edison is one of America's 400 investor-owned companies, owned by and responsible to 4 million American shareholders directly—and to many millions more indirectly. For example, if you have a life insurance policy, the company may invest a portion of your premiums in electric utility stock, giving you an indirect financial interest in the industry.
