It i s i r r e fu t a b l y axioma,tic in the l a t e 1970 s t h a t apathy i s rampant,
The l a s t pre s iden t i a l e l ec t i o n unders tandably evoked a r ecord low response
from the e l ec t o ra t e and the Lexington mayoral compet i t ion draws i n t e r e s t o f ap
proxamately the same magni tude.
Except fo r sporad ic reg iona l developments t h e re has been a minimum o f p o l
i t i c a l ac t i v i t y of any shade post-Vietnam. Most p o l i t i c a l l y o r i en t ed e n t e r t a i n ment having erupted onto the boob tube without so much as our compliance.
But occass ional ly a top ic or even t b e l i e s an undercurrent of ab id ing con

l eaves them out in th e cold.
Closer to home t he re have been a t l e a s t a couple of i s su es which have s t i r r e d more than a mild degree of a t t en t iveness .
Tops on the list i s the Army Corps of Engineers plan to des t roy the wonder'
land t h a t i s the Red River Gorge and rep lace it with a yacht ing club. Nothing l e s s
than blun t , decis ive c i t i z e n ac t ion ended t h i s f i a sco .
The n there was the Lexington Civic Center which caused g rea t hardsh ip to
poor persons and s tuden t s in t h e i r displacement fo r what i s now black top . Unt i l
the cour t s so jud ic ious ly revoked a l l the r i g h t s of the d i spossessed t h e re was a
good deal of p o s i t i v e involvement in r e s i s t i n g t he c ru e l ac t io n of the l o ca l
p o l i t i ca l establ i shment .
And in l e s se r numbers people have responded to a mult i tude o f other p o l i t i c a l
i s sues and movements from coopera t ive l i f e s t y l e s to t he r i g h t s of the handicapped.But non e of the aforementioned, or perhaps ever mentioned i s su es ranks on t he
s m e p la t eau o f c r i t i c a ln e s s as t h a t of nuc lea r power for it i s t he i ssue o f t he

us and our ch i ld ren . And t h e re i s no escap ing it I t i s everywhere and it i s to
day requ i r ing our a t t en t i o n s .
For c l a r i t y sake l e t us once more touch upon the fundamental components
of cogent oppos i t ion to nuclear power. Let it s ink in fo r a moment. It ap p l i e s
in th e most d i r e c t sense to you.

And if the sa fe ty problems weren ' t enough the re are enough other f c ~ s to
prove conclus ively the need to dump t h i s boondoggle.
**Nuclear power i s high ly cap i t a l in tens ive . It c rea tes few jobs for the dol -
l a r s spent . Many more jobs would be crea t ed fo r them same expendi ture on cons t ruc-
t i o n of a plan t using foss i l fue l s and espec ia l ly one coal . The negat ive
e f fec t t h a t nuc lear power wi l l have on Kentucky 's coal indus t ry i s inest imabl@.
But s ince the u t i l i t i e s have t h e i r f inger s in every power they go where the
p r o f i t i s not where the jobs are .
**The dangers of sabatoge to a nuclear p l a n t wi l l presen t the need for ana t iona l s tanding pol i ce fo rce for i n s t a l l a t i o n pro tec t ion . This has al ready
been author ized by Congress a t . the behest o f Pres ident Car ter . This same fore@
could be used fo r other , l e s s obvious purposes in i t s general area of deployment.
And it could conceivably be used to r e s i s t a populat ion t h a t d o e sn ' t want atomic
power.
**I t i s a c l a s s i c example of the r i c h ge t r i ch e r . The most p ro f i t ab l e indus t ry ,
u t i l i t i e s , and a l l i t s var ious r e l a t ed i ndus t r i e s wi l l have t o t a l cont ro l over
nuc lear power and i t s p r o f i t s and could t o t a l ly squeeze out cos t - reducing
compet i t ion . Whereas in a l t e r n a t i v e energy sources such as so la r and wind the
ownersh ip i s much more decen t r a l i zed and compet i t ive , lead ing to cos t savings
f or sonsumers.
That , in i t s bare es sen t i a l s i s the case aga ins t nuclear power and i t s
assor ted headaches. And a compel l ing case it i s .
From i t s impact on th e economy to the f ea r of p o l i t i c a l i n t e r fe re.nee in
operat ions both by the government and by determined sabateurs , to the extreme
hea l th hazards , the p e r i l assoc ia t ed with nuclear power i s unpara l le led and
v i r t u a l l y incomprehensib l e . But it e x i s t s . And if we do not shake out o f our
. malaise-or apathy-and take a s tand and ge t involved we j u s t might not have a choice
or even a voice to ra i s e in di ssen t or l aughter o r song. We may jus t be
a s t a t i s t ic of the s i l e n t bomb .
AND ITS CHEAP, TOO.
