(Expositor photo) Association reviews year Voluntary effort . is, im- portant, CFPL TV newsman Jack Burghardt told the annual meeting of the Huron - Perth Lung Association, and in today's complex world "doing your own thing is a totally inadequate response." The group reviewed its year at a dinner meeting at St. John's United Church in Stratford, May 3. "Freedom is only possible," the broadcaster continued, "when adults carry the unspectacular responsibilities of citizen- ship...weighing issues, voting, participating in en- terprises that build rather than destroy. Volunteer groups can create a more humane society, and if they fail, our world" may be shaped by "other forces less humane", Mr. Burghardt warned. "If there is anything which should make a person despise ' him or herself," he said, "it would be to live a little, mean existence in a time like this. We cannot excuse.the person, the service club or organizatior, or community who holes into its, com- paratively comfortable en- vironment of day-to-day living and refuses to have concern for building a better world." Are we really interested in helping those in need, he asked. "Does the bulk of our society, in truth, want those in need to go away and not bother anybody?" The handicapped, old people, young people, poor people, are kept out of -'sight, on minima) assistance programs-. which keep thein economically just where they are, Mr. Burghardt said. "...Many citizens are not concerned about anyone outside the mainstream of our society... and everybody outside the mainstream knows it. So do the few" dedicated people who work „with them." Mr. Burghardt, an active United Church layman challenged the audience: "Perhap's we ought to stop congratulating ourselves on our well-being, on our modern way of life, on our gross national product, and start reflecting on our gross at- titudes toward -the dis- inherited, the feeble, the troubled and the torn`."
