Landgrebe and Landgrabbers Ihreaten Dunes Park 
Cong. Harl Landgrebe of Indiana, who succeeded the celeprat— 
. ed Uharlie Halleck as a representative from the dunes area, 
| has introduced legislation into Vongress which would reduce 
the size of the already established Indiana Dunes National 
Lakeshore to 2000 acres from the already modest 8000 acres 
already established by Congress. His bill is known as AN 
AMKNDMENT TO PL 89-761. ‘The bill was sent to the Natienal 
Parks and “ecreation Subcommittee of the House Interior Lom 
mittee. Cong. Roy A. taylor is the Chairman. 
The Park is also threatened by a proposed superhighway which 
would bi-sect the park. midwest conservationists are urging 
that no funds be approved for such purpose. The Save the 
Dunes Council has pointed out that only $1.8 million of the 
ten million dollars sought this year for land purchases has 
been okayed by the House Appropriations Vommittee. Senator 
Birch Bayh of Indidna is seeking tc increase the allotment. 
The problem of a railroad switchyard inside the park now ap- j 
pears to be resolved as conservationi§gts worked hard to per- | 
suade railroad officials and national park officials to not 
allow 26 acres in the park to be so used by the south Shore 
iit. Sen. Bayh is receiving thanks for his aid.

| Worth Remembering .. . 
The Responsibility of 
Self-Sacrifice 
The ethic of reverence for life 
requires that in some way or oth- 
er and in something or other we 
should all live as men for men. 
To those who have no opportunity 
for human relations in their ordi- 
nary work, and who have nothing 
else to give, it suggests that they 
should sacrifice some of their 
own time and leisure even when 
they have but little of either. Take 
up some secret sideline, it says to 
them, some quite insignificant, per- 
haps even secret, sideline. Open 
your eyes and look for some man, 
or some work for the sake of men, 
which needs a little time, a little 
friendship, a little sympathy, a lit- 
tle sociability, a little human toil, 
Perhaps it is a lonely person, or 
an embittered person, an old man, 
or it may be a child. Or some good 
work is in want of volunteers who 
will devote a free evening to it or 
will run errands for it. Who can 
reckon up all the ways in which 
that priceless fund of impulse, 
man, is capable of exploitation! He 
is needed in every nook and cor- 
ner. Therefore, search and see if 
there is not some place where you 
may invest your humanity. 
—Dr. Albert Schweitzer )1875- 
1965).
