A gray, cold day would represent memories of relatives from a gray, cold war. Gold star mothers whose sons and daughters were killed in the Viet nam War were honored Sunday, as were the exploits of American serv icemen who died in the southeast Asian war. American Hags, flowers and hand-written personal remem brances of lovea ones adorned the black plexiglass wall of the 250-foot Vietnam memorial replica in Tyler’s Bergfeld Park. Teenagers not old enough to remember the pains of the war posed with family members. Years of disgrace for the Vietnam veterans and the families whose sons and daughters died in the war were pushed aside Sunday, hopefully for the last time, said area gold star mothers who attended the ceremo nies. Catherine Johnson, of Grand Sa line, whose son, Staff Sgt. Alvin Lee Shadwick, was killed in Vietnam in February 1969 said a decade has made a difference in the public’s perception of Americans who served in that war. “They were treated like a bunch of people on marijuana and were told they had no business being there,” Johnson explained. “Today, though, is wonderful. They (society) are beginning to rec ognize them and it’s long overdue.” Helen Howell, of Tyler, whose son, Staff Sgt. Randall Howell, was killed in August 1966 after 7 years service in Vietnam, said although she wanted her son home, she knew what he wanted to do was right. "Since my son volunteered and 'em, he certainly had a right to go," lowell said. “He felt he was protect- it> his nation. I just wanted him h<*ie, but that’s natural, 1 guess.” 6r some, though, the pain of the lonkst war in American history and the hsses sustained because of that war Gminue. “I bought my son was so perfect and sovaluable that nothing or any one cai put a price on his life, even though ie paid the supreme price,” said Ven J. Williams, mother of Gayle Ed>ard Williams, who died in Novembei 1969. “1 feel Lis loss and it is great. It still hurts,’ she added. “And the longer I live the longer it will hurt more and mo-e.” She said nany young people to day remind he of Gayle. “When I seevoung boys fishing, I see my boy beouse he was very ath letic,” William-, explained. "He played hard and ie died hard." Williams said American mothers should fight to ke?p their children from dying in simihr circumstances. “It’s time for us Xmerican moth ers to say, ‘You can have my son.’ American mothers should say I should have an exphnation first,” she said. “I need to be the one who says yes or no.” At the ceremonies, a large gold star was presented tc Kathryn Thomas, president of Gold Star Mothers Assn, of Texas, ir recogni tion of all mothers whose children died in Vietnam. 2 prison warden leaving Ilfs fun hoot and 1 Bln fan, |usi plain ■ore, the I Maybe te.nn a les: i Wedne: Is. ranke (CAA > lullnvesi Id K)-M I record ■A&M I Is pleas Knee un Ks fell I It manat ■''The il tensity,” ' Kite we relaxed a [them to Hy like tl iBrinkm evi'jatioi: ■"We 11 In Id cot loming for us.” United Press Intenutkml Afterwards, an estimated 45 gold star mothers received small gold stars, and put them by the narres of their children.

After a daylong hearing, the three-member board approved the new rates effective Feb. 1, 1985. The 3.8 percent reduction was suggested by the board. Depending on the area of the state, its number of accidents and the cost of repairs, yearly savings to Texas policy holders will range from $4 to $94 for drivers of low- to mid- priced automobiles that carry stan dard coverage. “With this decision, the companies writing private passenger auto insur ance will still get a 16.9 percent aver age return on their net worth," board spokesman Jon Ford said. “They’ve had fewer accidents and fewer fatalities and they’re also mak ing a lot of money on their invest ments, so a reduction in the premi-j urns doesn’t necessarily mean they’re | not going to continue making money,” Ford added. Industry officials asked for a 5.5 percent hike to follow last year’s in- | crease of 3.9 percent. “1 think it is a setback,” Rick Gen try of the Insurance Information In stitute said of the board’s ruling. “I’m a little hesitant to characterize it as a major setback. We feel we made the most compelling case today.” Examples of new premium costs under the new rates are based on $30,GOO bodily injury cot® $ 15,000 property damage It $5 ,000 personal injury pro»4 $50 deductible comprehensiw 1 erage and $200 deductibleco^ coverage.

S) S) S) s> c Dol Tower says Democrats are lying United Press International 38(3 HOUSTON — Lame-duck Sen. John Tower, R-Texas, said Wednes day that Democrats owe the elderly an apology for their recent claims that President Ronald Reagan is a threat to Social Security, claims that Tower called lies. “They are preying on the fears of older Americans in an attempt to get their votes and their money,” Tower told a news conference at the Harris County Reagan-Bush headquarters. “Frankly, the Democrats are lying to voters in Texas and throughout the country about Social Security. “They are frightening senior citi zens with totally unfounded claims that the benefits seniors depend on could be taken from them. Even more crass than those statements, however, is their effort to raise money by creating, and then taking advantage of, those false fears.” Since Reagan took office, Tower said, benefits for the average retired couple have increased by $180 a month, or by more than $2,000 a year. He said benefits for the average retired worker have gone up 27 per cent and benefits for the widow or widower of retired workers have in creased 30 percent. “I resent the Democrats’ decep tions and I believe they owe senior citizens an apology, ” Tower said. “If there is anything senior citizens should be frightened about,i* prospect that Walter Mot# become president and onct' put Social Security on the ha bankruptcy.” Later, at another newscofe in Houston, Sen. Lloyd Beii^ Texas, held fast to the De®* theme that Reagan attend drastic cut of Social Security af ter taking office. CT C7 07 07 07 Bentsen said that the T ministration has tried to® 15 Security benefits by almost^ but that the benefits wereni' defended and the cut Congress. Wes Ce E
