Group realizes ecological limits
Americans must stop thinking like cowboys on an unlimited frontier and realize they live in an *age of imprints*. West Texas is one of the Land Institute in Salina, 93124.

political implications of living in a world of limitations.
The Land Institute is a school looking for alternatives in the areas of agriculture, forestry and fishing.
Jackson, who made his remarks at Tuesday's KU Ecology Club meeting, said he used to teach environmental studies at California State University until he quit and established the 28-acre Land Institute. The institute accepts only eight students a semester.
The Land Institute is trying to develop a philosophy to help people live in an age of technology. The Land Institute's philosophy would take into account the psychological, biological, social and
"A LOT OF PEOPLE aren't aware we've got limits," Jackson said. "A lot of people aren't aware that by the mid-80s we're going to have troubles—deep ones."
The ultimate solutions to these problems will not be technological, Jackson said, but physical.
People's attitudes abut food, cars, jobs,
neighbors and the world must change before
depletion of the earth's resources will stop
people's starving people will be fed,
he added.
Slower economic growth is necessary to prevent the depletion of the world's unreewirable resources, such as oil, coal and natural gas, according to Jackson. All of these resou. ces in the United States, which were easily available, have been mined, he
ONCE THESE deposits are gone the United States will be forced to either import all its energy or to turn alternative sources into carbon, wind or geothermal energy, Jackson said.
said, leaving only the hard-to-mine, expensive deposits of oil and gas.
"It should be clear to everyone that a society which is based on mining is not moral."
A society based on agriculture could last longer than a mining society, Jackson said, but a society based on American agriculture would not last long.
"We'll see that under those conditions the United States is not a permanent country,"
American farmers are losing 9 tons of soil an acre every year, according to figures published by the General Accounting Office of the federal government.
The loss of soil is caused in part by the large number of erosive thunderstorms the
United States has each year, Jackson said. But more of the problem is caused by the type of crops American farmers plant, he said.
"ALL OF OUR high-yield crops are herbaceous annuals, which means you have to tear the soil up every year to plant them." Jackson said.
Jackson prefers that farmers plant herbaceous perennials or plants that survive winters and grow again in spring. Jackson prefers to plant herbaceous perennials, the crop plant called eastern gamma grass.
Eating grass seeds might sound distasteful, Jackson said, but it is an example of the changes in attitude need to make if they want to keep eating.
Jackson said the seeds of eastern gamma grass could be harvested and eaten each year and the plants would survive and produce more seeds the next year. The seeds of eastern gamma grass are as nutritious as wheat or corn, he said.

Workers seek resolution to grievance against Vogt
Two utilities department workers will try to resolve their grievances against Gene Vogt, director of utilities, when they appear before the grievance board today and
George Blevins Sr., one of the workers, said Monday he would go before the board today in an attempt to resolve his grievance of age discrimination in job employment by Vogt. Blevins alleges he was not hired for a job because he was too old.
Bil Piera, the other worker, will represent himself and about 14 other workers tomorrow for a grievance that Vog improperly promoted a worker without going through the required procedures established in the city employees code.
big win not the small one. The board is made up of four city employees and officials who try to resolve problems between labor and management in city departments. Each
meeting will begin at 9 a.m. and will be held in the conference room on the fourth floor of
BLEVINS AND BIERA said they wanted Vogt to be repremanded and his job moderated by the city manager for six months as a resolution to their grievances.
If they are not satisfied with the board's resolutions, Blevins and Biera could then appeal their grievances to Buford Watson, city manager. If the workers are not content with Watson's solutions, they then can appeal their grievances to the City Commission.
The workers, however, say they hope the grievance will not have to go that far.
"The workers are all hoping that the graveyard is resolved in the two weeks." Bye-says. Bye-says.
"none of us want to see Vogt fired—we just want some kind of insurance."
