He appeared so glum over his religion, his wife dressed as 'if she were in mourning becausé she thought God must be dead by her husband's actions. He got the message and tried to express his feelings more On Sunday, Rev. Pogue | | 19 Division Street, Keeping it clean with Bill Dodds All at sea . . . 'Remember the Manhattan, that 1,005-foot $43 million ice-breaking oil tanker that was built for a U.S. oil company to ply the arctic waters above Canada's north shores. Remember how she needed the Canadian - ice-breaker the John A. MacDonald to break through the masses of ice jamming the northwest passage. : A minor rupture and oil leak during her shake-down cruise, and the difficulties the heavy ice created for her 150,000 tons and her 43,000 horsepower turned the tide on the Manhattan. Instead of tankers carrying oil from Alaska to the eastern seaboard, North America has a new pipeline debate -- pipelines to carry oil across the perma-frost region to its markets. And, according to a U.S. environmental writer, the Manhattan has become one of the world's unique examples of recycling as she sits in Bangladesh's Cittagong harbor -- used as a - grain silo. Two researchers are developing a 12-year old-idea to assess the practicability of getting fresh clean water from the other pole. Neil Ostrander and John Hult, funded by a U.S. National Science Foundation Grant, propose self-propelled floating nuclear power stations that carry and run huge electrical engines on an antarctic iceberg. They feel these bergs, which average a thickness of 300 yards and an area of from 10 to 25 square miles, can be driven to arid coastal countries by atomic power. They envision an iceberg train, towed by a locomotive berg with atomic powerplant, floating to the point where it is needed. There quarrying machinery would grind the ice into some of the earth's purest water and pipe it ashore. y Technology should be ready to cope with this project by 1980, but there are still bugs in the proposal. These include the loss of mass in the antarctic and its effect on the Antarctic Ocean and the fog and cold water runoff that would accompany the ice train. And a major difficulty is the doubtful ability of the water-poor coastal nations, like Mexico, Chile, Israel and Arabia to name a few, to create farming areas and aqueducts and irrigations networks to use a sudden abundance of water. It's just part of the challenge we all face -- to learn to use our environment instead of abusing it.

With the adults Rev. Pogue again spoke of Martin Luther who said our Conscience is like a. barking dog that bothers us. So we lock it up so we will not hear it so clearly. Politically and personally we have become a people with an easy conscience. Marriage, family and bus- _iness responsibility have lessened. It is not possible that we no longer have a conscience. 70 percent of people in U.S. are suffering from emotional problems in various degrees.
