The <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> SentineULedger<br />

PAGE 2 — SECTION TWO<br />

THURSDAY, APRIL 1, 1974<br />

now<br />

The city commissioners met earlier<br />

. this week to deal with the question <strong>of</strong><br />

the retirement <strong>of</strong> several employees*<br />

who have reached 70 years <strong>of</strong> age.<br />

"The meeting was a positive step<br />

forward to recognizing that these<br />

people should be given their pensions<br />

and replaced with younger people with<br />

new ideas. Most <strong>of</strong> those who will be<br />

retired soon have served the city well<br />

and deserve to enjoy the fruits <strong>of</strong> their<br />

labors.<br />

Yet there is a nagging question<br />

about the mandatory retirement age <strong>of</strong><br />

70. Some employees are "old" at 50<br />

and others who have reached 70 are<br />

' young in spirit and their approach to<br />

their jobs. Thus the 70 year old cut<strong>of</strong>f<br />

age for retirement is at best a common<br />

-denominator that fails to take into<br />

consideration the human element, and<br />

that is not altogether fair.<br />

By taking action now to enforce the<br />

70 year old retirement age, the city<br />

will be losing men and women in key<br />

positions throughout the city.<br />

However, there is no lack <strong>of</strong> talented<br />

younger people ready to move into<br />

these positions. .-<br />

Many <strong>of</strong> those retiring now and in<br />

the immediate future will be taking<br />

. with them more than just a gold watch<br />

and their pensions. So Some <strong>of</strong> these<br />

employees have been on the city<br />

payroll for as long as 40 years and<br />

during that time have accumulated a<br />

staggering amount <strong>of</strong> vacation time<br />

and sick leave.<br />

It has long been the practice in city<br />

hall for employees to save up their<br />

time and remain on the city payroll for<br />

as much as two years after retirement<br />

at the rate <strong>of</strong> pay they were receiving<br />

when they <strong>of</strong>ficially left work. This is<br />

an added burden for the taxpayers who<br />

must still pay a new person to do the<br />

job.<br />

This newspaper has long advocated<br />

a controlled plan for the utilization <strong>of</strong><br />

vacation time and sick leave <strong>by</strong> city<br />

employees. Now is the time for the<br />

commissioners to pass, legislation<br />

controlling these items so retiring<br />

employees won't continue to draw<br />

from the public trough after they stop<br />

working.<br />

Walking the dog<br />

It may have sounded like a loke<br />

when Mayor B. Thomas Waldman first<br />

mentioned the possibility <strong>of</strong><br />

establishing "doggie parks" ui the<br />

city, but the Mayor insists he is serious<br />

about the possibility.<br />

The Mayor's idea deserves careful<br />

study if for no other reason than the<br />

critical problem <strong>of</strong> where to take dogs<br />

to take care <strong>of</strong> their daily needs during<br />

the busy summer months. There<br />

simply aren't enough vacant lots in the<br />

city for the dog population.<br />

The Mayor proposes to have four or<br />

six areas throughout the city where<br />

people can take their dogs to do their<br />

business, exercise, or just meet other<br />

.^•.IW* certain problems inherent<br />

with utoeLa proposal, most notably the<br />

problem <strong>of</strong> where to locate the parks.<br />

The.city owns a number <strong>of</strong> vacant lots<br />

throughout the city, but there is bound<br />

to be a stink from the neighbors if dogs<br />

<strong>by</strong> the dozen are brought daily to those<br />

locations.<br />

Comment on the contemporary<br />

Even assurances from city <strong>of</strong>ficials<br />

that the lots will be cleaned daily will<br />

do little to calm the taxpayers who end<br />

up with a doggie park next to them.<br />

And then there is the question <strong>of</strong><br />

whether people will drive to these<br />

locations when it would be a lot easier<br />

to walk their dogs closer to home even<br />

though that might mean a visit to the<br />

neighbor's lawn.<br />

Nevertheless the Mayor's idea<br />

should not be taken lightly. The<br />

problem <strong>of</strong> dogs on the beach, board-<br />

walk and iust around town is a serious<br />

one. The doggie parks might be a step<br />

forward toward public awareness that,<br />

people should be responsible for^their<br />

animals.<br />

In order to minimize neighborhood<br />

protests, the commissioners should<br />

seek out. locations away from<br />

predominently residential areas or<br />

where the population density is<br />

especially high. The idea deserves<br />

study and this should be done as soon<br />

as possible.<br />

Forum agin' em<br />

Editor, Sentinel-Ledger:<br />

During all the discussions and<br />

arguing over where to place a<br />

waste water treatment plant in<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>, I wander why<br />

nobody ever thought • at least<br />

out loud - <strong>of</strong> the way the city<br />

could have gotten away from<br />

having any plant at all.<br />

All the Cape May County<br />

MUA had to do was look across<br />

the water, the bay, that ia. and<br />

make a deal with the Atlantic<br />

County Sewerage Authority,<br />

which, <strong>of</strong> course,ls far ahead <strong>of</strong><br />

CapeMay.<br />

^Connectors could be run to<br />

either or both <strong>of</strong> the Somers<br />

Point and Longport stations<br />

andhecoine part <strong>of</strong> the Atlantic<br />

County collection systems In<br />

other words* <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> could<br />

become a "customer" <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Atlantic County system, and<br />

not ha ve to build any plant at all<br />

(a tremendous savings there)<br />

and not have any plant at all<br />

(which I'm sure would be great<br />

with everybody).<br />

Letters shoald be brief<br />

verified. aJthoagh neither<br />

at the writers<br />

County system, and the fact<br />

that the Atlantic <strong>City</strong> plant,<br />

which is now under con-<br />

struction, probably could<br />

handle the <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> load<br />

without any trouble. As a<br />

"customer, naturally. <strong>Ocean</strong><br />

<strong>City</strong> residents would be<br />

—trrrnr* the same way as the<br />

Atlantic County residents.<br />

I'm sure you win agree this<br />

bears some considerati<br />

request. The Sentinel-<br />

I have asked acr engineer<br />

friend <strong>of</strong> mine if that ttTjprac-<br />

mat not only would it be<br />

practical, but the smartest<br />

thing to do in many respects,<br />

keeping in mind the<br />

geographical proximity <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> to the Atlantic<br />

I have a hunch, considering<br />

how much more smoothly the<br />

Atlantic County project has<br />

been moving as compared with<br />

Cape May, that my idea may<br />

turn out to be the "only way F '<br />

Peiat Mayor Harvey 8mtth<br />

with a copy to the Senttael-<br />

Ledger along with the reaaest<br />

that It be priated here.<br />

Mayor Smith: John F.<br />

Waldman selected for vice president<br />

Mark- April 1 on your<br />

calendar because today is the<br />

day the New Jersey Republican<br />

delegation to the national<br />

convention drafted Mnonrr,<br />

Mayor B. Thomas Waldman, to<br />

serve on President Ford's<br />

ticket as bis vice president.<br />

Displaying his characteristic<br />

humility when informed <strong>of</strong> the<br />

decision, Waldman noted that<br />

he only accepted the <strong>of</strong>fer after<br />

a deluge <strong>of</strong> calls from friends<br />

and acquaintances all over the<br />

country urged him to do so.<br />

"I know that there are still<br />

pressing needs here in <strong>Ocean</strong><br />

<strong>City</strong> that should be attended<br />

to," Waldman said today, "but<br />

J. Fred Coldren, my friend and<br />

confidant from the days when<br />

politics were fun, has Informed<br />

me that Ford cannot win<br />

without me on the ticket"<br />

He said the city's PubUc<br />

Works Department employees<br />

have already endorsed his<br />

candidacy and have pledged to<br />

work diligently for the success<br />

<strong>of</strong> the ticket.<br />

As to the fate <strong>of</strong> the <strong>City</strong>'s<br />

record $8.5 million budget now<br />

that he is leaving, Waldman<br />

said be would return his salary<br />

to the city, there<strong>by</strong> alleviating<br />

the strain on taxpayers'<br />

pocketbooks to some degree.<br />

He directed all other<br />

uesUonson the matter to Cfaet<br />

Waldman informed us after<br />

Us news conference that, if<br />

elected, he will support the use<br />

<strong>of</strong> Christmas trees to shore up<br />

the sagging East Wing <strong>of</strong> the<br />

White House, but only if Gaudio<br />

Bros. Inc. would deliver their<br />

leftover boughs to Washington.<br />

His first act upon becoming<br />

the Vice President, Waldman<br />

said, would be to hold a gala<br />

dinner to honor all those from<br />

<strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> who have served<br />

Urn so'faitnfutty over the years.<br />

"And," he added as an after<br />

thought, "I will invite Jack<br />

BUtner and Bob Ordille as long<br />

as they promise to come in<br />

through the rear entrance."<br />

Hizxoner said he and the<br />

President will be running on a<br />

platform that win address the<br />

specific issues that are<br />

plaguing America *.*wl mm* be<br />

resolved within the next four<br />

years.<br />

He had no<br />

The Mayor assured us that, tf<br />

reportedly, wfl) be located .at<br />

Annapolis where the newly-<br />

elected Vice President can<br />

while away his spare hours<br />

tinkering with the Navy's ship-<br />

The Waldman-Ford Ad-<br />

against everything that's bad,<br />

we have been told.<br />

"Anything in between wiQ be<br />

Chain letter<br />

fad is sweeping<br />

the couiytry t<br />

Chain letters *«re where it's at. Just a few days<br />

after we read a newspaper article about the in- (<br />

creasing popularity <strong>of</strong> chain letters we received one<br />

in the mail. Not since 1959 have chain letters been<br />

around in such numbers.<br />

The chain letter we received came from Venezuela<br />

and was written <strong>by</strong> St. Antonie de Sidi, a missionary<br />

from South America. Our instructions were to make<br />

20 copies <strong>of</strong> the letter and send it to our parents,<br />

friends or acquaintances. Since our parents would<br />

probably mink we were crazy if we sent them a chain<br />

letter we decided to limit circulation to friends and<br />

acquaintances. Even then we were hard pressed to<br />

find 20 people who wouldn't mink we were absolutely<br />

out <strong>of</strong> our head.<br />

The letter said that after mailing the 20 copies we<br />

would get a surprise. We are still waiting. The letter '<br />

explained that Constantine Disco received the chain<br />

in 1953. He sent 24. copies to friends and a few days<br />

later won a $2,000,000 lottery in his country. That got<br />

us interested.<br />

Carlos Brandt, an <strong>of</strong>fice worker received the chain.<br />

He did not believe in it and threw it away; Nine days<br />

later he died. That got us scared. Ken Friedman, an<br />

artist, tried the chain. Within nine days he received a<br />

great deal <strong>of</strong> help on two projects and major<br />

exhibition in a big museum.<br />

The chain is nothing more than a prayer which says<br />

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and all will<br />

acknowledge that He will light the way." The letter<br />

says that the prayer has been sent for good luck. The<br />

original prayer comes from the Netherlands and has<br />

been around the world ten times. The author <strong>of</strong> the<br />

letter insists the letter is not a joke and good luck will<br />

strike the recipient four days after the letter is<br />

received. They dent want any money sent, but the<br />

letter must be mailed within 98 hours after it is<br />

received.<br />

We sent the letter to several <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong> people who.<br />

we run into during the course <strong>of</strong> a day. After they<br />

received the letter in the mail we got a number <strong>of</strong><br />

phone calls telling us we were crazy. Most <strong>of</strong> them<br />

thought it was a big joke until we told mem we were<br />

deluged with good luck four days after we received<br />

the letter. An absolute lie.<br />

All <strong>of</strong> a sudden we turned the non-believers, into<br />

believers without even teHini<br />

certainty if the letter was ignored, and this seemed to<br />

have an evctt'greltef effect onthose we.sent.the<br />

letter to. . :<br />

So we have done our duty perpetuating the chain<br />

letter and we have learned a little bit more about<br />

human nature in the process. "<br />

The arrogance <strong>of</strong> Rlzzo<br />

Philadelphia Mayor Frank L. Rizzo is about as<br />

arrogant as they come. All over the city <strong>of</strong><br />

Philadelphia are signs hailing various projects such<br />

as the reconstruction <strong>of</strong> Market St., the Im-<br />

provements at International Airport and the like.<br />

<strong>On</strong> these signs are a few brief words describing the<br />

project and then in larger letters "Frank L. Rizzo,<br />

Mayor." The name and title are apparently there to<br />

pamper Hissoner's ego.<br />

Viewing some <strong>of</strong> those signs recently at the In-<br />

ternational Airport we realized what the con-<br />

Iuences will be in three yean when Rizzo leaves<br />

ce. According to Philadelphia's city charter Rizzo<br />

can not seek a third term. We can just imagine the<br />

frenzy at the Philadelphia sign department when<br />

Rizzo steps down in January <strong>of</strong> 1979. <strong>City</strong> workers<br />

will be running around the town with paint brushes<br />

covering over the ex-Mayor's name.<br />

We have been following with a more than casual<br />

interest the conflict between Rizzo and the<br />

Philadelphia Inquirer. It has been a long simmering<br />

feud and it finally came to a head two weeks ago<br />

when the pro-Rizzo union with no contract with the<br />

Inquirer stopped the newspaper's employees from<br />

going to work.<br />

The Mayor claims he had nothing to do with the<br />

picketing and he maintain* me union was simply<br />

exercising its right to bring to public attention their<br />

grievances against the newspaper.<br />

The incident led to a series <strong>of</strong> charges and counter<br />

charges <strong>by</strong> both the inquirer and Rizzo. Everyone got<br />

into tie set fawimting the Philadelphia Chamber <strong>of</strong><br />

itd h ti b th M<br />

g pia Chamber <strong>of</strong><br />

Commerce which insisted such actions <strong>by</strong> the Mayor<br />

create a bad image <strong>of</strong> the city throughout the<br />

country.<br />

Fighting the Inquirer<br />

Rizzo claims the opposite is true. He thinks the<br />

inquirer is giving the city a bad name. Obviously<br />

there is going to be no easy solution to the ttiauy<br />

inquirer lend, but the Mayor should recognize one<br />

thing. Long after Frank Rizzo leaves <strong>of</strong>fice merewffl<br />

be a Phflanrtphia inquirer to nick over his bones<br />

There is no way the Mayor wuTget the last word in<br />

Less Drudgery...<br />

... More Living<br />

That's what retirement has meant to Fred and Frances. Of course,<br />

they spent close to forty years getting themselves ready.<br />

- They learned the richness <strong>of</strong> living ... the adventures <strong>of</strong><br />

believing and serving and sacrificing. They surrounded themselves<br />

with people who care, who are concerned, who like helping others.<br />

They based their lives on truths and ideals that do not change with<br />

every passing opportunity or disappointment. They found God.<br />

Now they are prepared to enjoy the rest <strong>of</strong>fife.<br />
