52 Counties See Numbers Drop

Some Growth In Missouri In 2018 ST. LOUIS (AP) — New census data shows that while Missouri's population rose slightly last year compared to 2017, more than 50 counties lost population.

Recently released data shows estimated county populations as of July 1, 2018, compared to the previous year. Missouri overall saw its population rise 0.3% to an estimated 6,126,452.

But the Census Bureau data shows that 52 of Missouri's 114 counties and the city of St. Louis lost population. Southeast Missouri in particular saw significant declines.

Pemiscot County lost 3.2% of its population, the biggest decline in the state.

Dunklin County had a 2.2% decline, and Carter and Mississippi counties both lost 1.8% of their populations. Six other counties in the region saw net losses.

Pemiscot County Presiding Commissioner Mark Cartee said there simply aren't enough jobs to keep young people around once they get out of school, especially since farming has become so auto-

Population Drop In Area Counties All nine counties of the Green Hills Area saw a decline in population between 2017 and 2018, according to th U.S. Census Bureau data.

Decreases ranged from 0.3 percent in Livingston County to 7.3 percent in Sullivan County. Grundy County’s population dropped by 3.4 percent, going from 10,261 in 2017 to 9,914 in 2018. Other counties, their 2017 population, 2018 population and percentage change included: Caldwell - 9,424; 9,108; -3.4 percent Daviess - 8,433; 7,451; -4.8 percent Harrison - 8,957; 8,414; -6.1 percent Linn - 12,761; 12,037; -5.7 percent Livingston - 15,195; 15,153; -0.3 percent Mercer - 3,785; 3, 641; -3.8 percent Putnam - 4,979; 4,757; -4.5 percent Sullivan - 6,714; 6,221; -7.3 percent

mated that fewer farm workers are needed.

"It's been going on in Pemiscot County for years," Cartee said of the decline. "At one time we were close to 30,000 people.

Now we're at 16,000."

Turning around the decline is a tough task, Cartee said.

"We're open for suggestions," he said.

The state's biggest gainer was Lincoln County, about 60 miles north of St. Louis.

The county saw a 2.8% increase in population to 57,686.

Lincoln County Economic Development Director Larry Tucker said the growth is driven by people moving further See Population, Page 4

SPORTS HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL

Putnam County Midgets 13, Trenton Bulldogs 2

Bulldogs Can’t Stop GRC Leaders The Trenton High School baseball team stumbled into a much-needed, three-day break, falling 13-2 to Putnam County on the road in Unionville on Thursday night. The game capped a stretch of eight days in which Trenton played seven games.

Putnam County, which currently sits atop the Grand River Conference standings, represented a tough test for Trenton and the Bulldogs struggled to keep the Midgets off the scoreboard. Putnam County plated a run in the bottom of the first, three in the second and two in the third. In the fourth, things really unraveled for Trenton and the home squad struck for seven runs.

When Trenton was unable to answer in the top of the fifth, the game was called by the 10run rule.

Chase Otto got the start on the hill for the Bulldogs and started off decently enough with the one-run first inning. It wouldn’t last, however, as Otto took the loss, allowing nine

runs, six of which were earned, on nine hits. Otto didn’t issue a walk in three innings of work and struck out three. Tanner Lynch took over in the fourth and didn’t fare any better, allowing four earned runs on three hits and a walk without a strikeout.

Trenton’s defense committed six errors in the loss.

Offensively, Trenton put up a pair of runs in the third inning as Lynch and Jaren Whitney each crossed the plate. The two runs momentarily cut the lead to 4-2, but it wouldn’t last.

Quincy Griffin led Trenton, going two-for-three with an RBI. Trenton had six hits in the game, but only one went for extra bases as Lynch recorded a double.

“We are learning,” Trenton Head Coach Joel Hultman said. “We have to play to learn and sometimes the learning is painful to go through. Hopefully, these mistakes will focus us and force us to want to make plays and compete. The players are trying and not giv-

Brookfield Relays

Trenton Girls Upended In Brookfield After five straight meet victories to start the season, the Trenton High School girls track and field team was defeated for the first time in 2019 Thursday at the Brookfield Relays. Trenton finished second in the girls team standings with a season-low 98.5 points as Marceline claimed the title in Brookfield with 127 points.

Trenton won three events at the meet and piled up points in the sprints as is customary, but a deep field of 21 schools inhibited Trenton’s ability to double place in events as it normally does. Only in the discus, where Kendall Crowley was third with a throw of 1083 and Salem Croy was eighth with a mark of 100-4, did Trenton double place.

Trenton bested Marceline by nearly 10 seconds in the final event of the meet - the 4x400meter relay - but at that point the team title had already been decided with Marceline holding a healthy advantage.

Lexi Whitaker, Kristi

Ewing, Lexi Gott and McKayla Blackburn won the 4x400 with a time of 4:18.64. Ewing, Whitaker and Gott teamed with Chandler Lynch to add a gold medal in the 4x200-meter relay with a time of 1:52.75.

Whitaker won Trenton’s only individual gold medal at the meet, placing first in the 300-meter hurdles with a time of 47.66. She was also third in the 200-meter dash with a time of 28.14. Ewing, meanwhile, was second in the 400-meter dash with a time of 1:01.91 and third in the 100-meter dash with a time of 13.68.

While Whitaker and Ewing anchored Trenton’s performance on the track, the Bulldogs had placewinners in five other events on the track as well.

The 4x800-meter relay team of Blackburn, Gwyneth Foster, Katie Markell and Gracyn Rongey finished third with a time of 11:32.6. Rongey was also fourth in the 1,600-meter run with a time of 6:25.55, Foster was fifth in the 800-

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Danny Hoesen scored twice in the opening 12 minutes and the San Jose Earthquakes beat Sporting Kansas City by a final score of 41 on Saturday night.

Hoesen opened the scoring in the sixth minute, settling Aníbal Godoy's long pass between a pair of defenders and slipping past them for a close-range finish. Six minutes later, Hoesen broke free on Jackson Yueill's pass and slotted home a right-footed shot.

The Earthquakes (2-5-0) took a 3-0 lead on the first sequence following the second-half kickoff capped by Shea Salinas' curling chip shot.

Magnus Eriksson added a fourth goal in the 61st minute after his pass was deflected back at him by a Sporting KC defender.

Felipe Gutiérrez converted a penalty for Sporting KC (2-2-3) in the 66th minute.

Kansas City captain Matt Besler left the game in the 15th minute due to injury.

LOCAL Bank Grant Helps Students US Bank Foundation, Inc. recently awarded a $2,000 grant to the North Central Missouri College Foundation for Student Support Services scholarships, allowing five students to receive funds to help further their education.

The students include Zoe Littleton and Brandy Wilson of Trenton, Maggie Farrell of Winston, Russell Neeley of Brookfield and Jacob VanVickle of Gower. To be considered for the scholarship, students had to qualify for the

SSS program and complete a financial literacy course.

SSS is a federally-funded program that provides disadvantaged students with the encouragement and support they need to stay in college, to graduate and to transfer to four-year institutions. The program offers intensive one-onone tutoring, academic advising, transfer assistance, financial aid counseling, and other services necessary for students to succeed.

Jim Bush Gives Club Program The Trenton Lions Club met on Tuesday, April 16, in the First Christian Family Activity Center.

Acting president George Moore led the pledge to the U.S. flag, followed by prayer

by Rev. Steve Martin. John Holcomb served as “tail twister.”

Jim Bush shared reflections on his service as a Navy Seal.

Assigned to the Navy’s special warfare units (Underwater Demolition Team Eleven and Seal Team One), Bush’s training concentrated on parachuting, scuba diving, and demolitions. Bush also trained

at the Army’s first Special Forces High Altitude, Low Opening School at Camp Sukiran, Okinawa. On Nov. 8, 1967, Bush made a night jump from 31,500 feet with a 160 second delay in opening his parachute while wearing full combat equipment and water landing gear. This record-setting free fall stands to this day.

Bush gave members photo albums and videos commemorating his military service and experiences.

The Lions Club will next meet on Tuesday, April 23.

George Moore will serve as program chairman.

The new data didn't estimate populations for most cities but St. Louis was an exception because it is in essence its own county. The city's population, on the decline for seven decades, fell another 5,028, or 1.6%, to 302,838. St. Louis had 856,796 residents in 1950.

St. Louis County's population rose by fewer than 300 people to 996,945. Jefferson County saw a 0.3 percent increase to 224,347.

St. Charles County continued to grow, though not as fast as in the past. The county's estimated population rose 1 percent to 399,182.

Jackson County saw a 0.4% rise to 700,307. Among other large counties, Greene County's population rose 0.7 percent to 291,923, and Boone County's population rose 0.8 percent to 180,005.

COMMUNITY Couple To Be Married On April 27 Donnie and Cheryl Terhune Bonen of Pilot Grove announce the upcoming marriage of their daughter, Holli Lynn Bonen, to Justin Michael Miller, son of David and Susan Miller of Tipton.

The wedding will be held at

3 p.m. on Saturday, April 27, 2019 at the Legacy Barn at Barnett.

Josh Gottman Gives Program The Southside Farm Club met for lunch on April 17 at the home of Jackie Altenderfer.

Twelve members and four guests were present. The blessing was given by Josh Gottman, who also gave the program. He was introduced

by Jackie Altenderfer.

Gottman gave a presentation about his trip to Israel. He was a faculty member for Passages, a group funded by the Museum of the Bible. He oversaw 31 students during his trip from Dec. 29-Jan. 8. He and his group of college students walked where Jesus went and acquired a better understanding of its geopolitical climate.

The trip started at Tel Aviv, the only international airport, and the group then went to Netanya, a wealthier area.

Gottman showed the group photos of a church, where Jesus’ language, Aramaic, is

spoken. He also told about Capernaum’s hole in the ground where Jesus healed Peter’s mother in-law. The group viewed photos depicting the Jordan River, the Church of Enunciation, Nazareth Village, Western Wall, Dome of the Rock and the amphitheater while Gottman described the importance of each one.

President Robin Meservey opened the meeting with the question, “What year did you join the club?� The group reflected on last month’s 80th celebration and Mrs. Altenderfer volunteered to email members a recording of Marian Campbell’s presentation.

Mrs. Altenderfer handed out a purse hunt to everyone.

Jacky Mack and Sue Brewer won the mystery and hostess gifts.

Ellen Dolan will host the next meeting at her home on May 15.

Trump Called On Spy Chiefs For Help As Mueller Probe Began WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two months before special counsel Robert Mueller was appointed in the spring of 2017, President Donald Trump picked up the phone and called the head of the largest U.S. intelligence agency. Trump told Mike Rogers, director of the National Security Agency, that news stories alleging that Trump's 2016 White House campaign had ties to Russia

were false and the president asked whether Rogers could do anything to counter them.

Rogers and his deputy Richard Ledgett, who was present for the call, were taken aback.

Afterward, Ledgett wrote a memo about the conversation and Trump's request. He and Rogers signed it and stashed it in a safe. Ledgett said it was the "most unusual thing he had

experienced in 40 years of government service."

Trump's outreach to Rogers, who retired last year, and other top intelligence officials stands in sharp contrast to his public, combative stance toward his intelligence agencies. At the time of the call, Trump was just some 60 days into his presidency, but he already had managed to alienate large parts of the intelligence apparatus

with comments denigrating the profession.

Since then, Trump only has dug in. He said at a news conference in Helsinki after his 2017 summit with Russian leader Vladimir Putin that he gave weight to Putin's denial that Russia meddled in the 2016 election, despite the firm conclusion of U.S. intelligence agencies that it had. "I don't see any reason why it would

be" Russia, Trump said. And earlier this year, Trump called national security assessments "naive," tweeting "perhaps intelligence should go back to school."

Yet in moments of concern as Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election got underway, Trump turned to his spy chiefs for help.

The phone call to Rogers on March 26, 2017, came only weeks after then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions had angered Trump by stepping aside from the investigation. James Comey, the FBI director who would be fired that May, had just told Congress that the FBI was not only investigating Russian meddling in the election, but also possible links or coordination between Moscow and the Trump campaign.

The call to Rogers and others like it were uncovered by Mueller as he investigated possible obstruction. In his 448page report released Thursday, Mueller concluded that while Trump attempted to seize control of the Russia investigation and bring it to a halt, the president was ultimately thwarted by those around him.

The special counsel said the evidence did not establish that Trump asked or directed intelligence officials to "stop or interfere with the FBI's Russia investigation." The requests to those officials, Mueller said, "were not interpreted by the officials who received them as directives to improperly interfere with the investigation."

During the call to Rogers, the president "expressed frustration with the Russia investigation, saying that it made relations with the Russians difficult," according to the report.

Trump said news stories linking him with Russia were not true and he asked Rogers "if he could do anything to refute the stories." Even though Rogers signed the memo about the conversation and put it in a safe, he told investigators he

did not think Trump was giving him an order.

Trump made a number of similar requests of other top intelligence officials.

On March 22, 2017, Trump asked then-CIA Director Mike Pompeo and National Intelligence Director Dan Coats to stay behind after a meeting at the White House to ask if the men could "say publicly that no link existed between him and Russia," the report said.

In two other instances, the president began meetings to discuss sensitive intelligence matters by stating he hoped a media statement could be issued saying there was no collusion with Russia.

After Trump repeatedly brought up the Russia investigation with his national intelligence director, "Coats said he finally told the President that Coats's job was to provide intelligence and not get involved in investigations," the report said.

Pompeo recalled that Trump regularly urged officials to get the word out that he had not done anything wrong related to Russia. But Pompeo, now secretary of state, said he had no recollection of being asked to stay behind after the March 22 meeting, according to the report.

Coats told Mueller's investigators that Trump never asked him to speak with Comey about the FBI investigation.

But other employees within Coats' office had different recollections of how Coats described the meeting immediately after it occurred.

According to the report, senior staffer Michael Dempsey "said that Coats described the president's comments as falling 'somewhere between musing about hating the investigation' and wanting Coats to 'do something to stop it.'

Dempsey said Coats made it clear that he would not get involved with an ongoing FBI investigation."

ACROSS MISSOURI

Missouri Recruits Prison Guards Amid High Turnover, Low Pay BOWLING GREEN, Mo. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The first recruit showed up at boot camp an hour early, wearing a 2014 letter jacket to keep warm.

Then two pals pulled into the icy parking lot together, also eager to become correctional officers. One of them, after a short stint in the Army, craved routine.

The other had a daughter to support and felt lucky to have survived an infection that cut his weight to 365 pounds.

Bethany Henson, 22, was a third his size. She arrived determined to confront her fear of abusive men for the opportunity to earn enough money to have her own home.

In all, 46 people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; ages 19 to 52 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; started the four-week boot camp on March 4, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported. Their backgrounds were diverse, but the reasons why they wanted to be on the front lines of the Missouri Department of Corrections were not.

"Right now they need a job. That's who is coming through the door," said Jim Wiseman, head of training for the department, which has been hammered by turnover. "And doggone it, we need them."

Wiseman stood under the disco ball at the Pike County Fairgrounds, personally greeting each one of them. "Come on in, welcome," he said. "You found us."

Under normal conditions, new recruits go to training academies in Jefferson City, Farmington or St. Joseph before being placed in one of the state's 21 prisons.

Staff departures have been so high at Northeast Correctional Center in Bowling Green â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the competition steep for the same jobs in Illinois and Iowa â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that the medium-security prison needed a lifeboat of its own.

Shortages have depleted institutional knowledge statewide, while more and more officers quit. In 2018 alone, 1,262 correctional officers left, up from 823 in 2014. There were recently 776 openings for the lowest level of correctional officer, which has a full capacity of 4,773.

Though the state's largest agency operates on a $786 million annual budget, its 11,000 employees are among the lowest paid in the nation. The average salary last year for correctional officers and jailers in Missouri was $31,650, according to the U.S. Department of Labor â&#x20AC;&#x201D; well below both Iowa, $50,750, and Illinois, $62,440.

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson, in his budget proposal, calls for pay raises that could be as much as 13% for some correctional officers, which officials say will help retention.

But the job itself â&#x20AC;&#x201D; being hemmed in by a "kill fence" with violent offenders â&#x20AC;&#x201D; isn't for everyone, no matter the pay. The so-called forgotten officers of law enforcement face a bruising cycle. Fewer hands and low morale cut into the quality of programs for the 30,000 inmates, which disrupts prison life and adds more stress for everyone.

It's also increasingly more costly for taxpayers. In 2018 alone, the department spent $26 million on overtime, more than three times as much as in 2014.

That doesn't include a mountain of unused comp time and more than $113 million that a Cole County court awarded correctional officers in 2018 for unpaid work that they performed before and after their shifts.

A few officers said voluntary and mandatory overtime are nice for a while,

but it's gone on so long that workers get burned out by not seeing the families they're trying to support. Some call in sick rather than wait to be relieved from a long shift.

One correctional officer getting ready to quit said inmates know staff can be too tired to deal with them, which makes it easier to plant and pass around contraband, such as drugs and homemade tattoo guns, hooch and knives.

All the while, those who are stepping up to get hired tend to be younger and less experienced. The minimum age has dropped to 19 from 21. A driver's license is no longer required. Nor are the agility and problem-solving tests once used to screen applicants. About a third of new hires don't make it through the first year, which Director Anne Precythe is trying to improve in part through the training program.

In Bowling Green, Wiseman encouraged the new class of recruits to ask questions and not give up if they get discouraged. He also promised cookies and punch in a month at a graduation ceremony that their families could attend, an event that had fallen out of practice.

Many of the recruits were starting the highest paying job of their lives: A base salary of $30,000, or $15 an hour, and benefits.

A lot of them came from eastern Pike County, along the Mississippi River, where the loss of industry 85 miles north of St. Louis has made the economic situation look "Third World," said Chris Gamm, presiding county commissioner.

"The Department of Corrections is by far the largest employer in the county," he said.

Tracy Davis, 48, of Louisiana, Missouri, said she's gone through several jobs in recent years, including waitress, medication tech, and temp at the GM assembly plant. She liked the stability of the prison industry. "I've been trying to find something that pays well and has good benefits, so I ended up here," Davis said.

She's a grandmother with five grown children â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one boy, four girls. "It will be OK," she said about the challenges of dealing with prisoners. "The inmates have nothing on my girls."

Lisa Maxey most recently earned $8.35 an hour at a gas station and didn't want to say why that job ended.

"Bowling Green really doesn't have any options, to be honest," she said. "There are a few gas stations and restaurants, and there's Walmart. You never know when they are going to be hiring. It's nice to go where they actually need you and you aren't just expendable."

When she was in high school, she wanted to be a mortician or work in a psych ward. Now 27, with the driver's license requirement lifted, she was excited to get a flavor of that at the corrections department. Her family was proud of her.

Austin Borders, 23, was originally from the southeast Missouri town of Doniphan, where he said he grew up working at sawmills and later ran out of opportunity.

In Bowling Green, he's washed dishes at a cafĂŠ and most recently earned $9.25 an hour at McDonald's, which cut his shift in half over winter.

He looked forward to steady paychecks and all the overtime they'd give him. He'd recently put $400 down on a $2,500 pickup and agreed to pay at least $150 a month. Now the transmission was going

out and the truck needed other repairs.

A few of them had experience working with inmates.

Ashley Treiber, 29, formerly worked as a correctional officer for St. Charles County. She had a lot of informed responses to questions in class. She also had a long commute and a 2-year-old son. She arrived late after lunch on the first day of boot camp, in tears. She said her grandfather died over the weekend.

"I am trying to make this work," she said. "I am going to keep trying."

Scott Phillips, of the Office of Professional Standards Civil Rights Unit, told them that professionalism was expected of every employee of the department and that they could set the tone of worksite culture.

"We work for the public, the citizens of Missouri," he told them. "It's important that we give them a good reason to continue to fund us. If we are behaving badly, do you think they are going to want to fund us the way that we think we need?"

While he didn't need a fake example, he put up a sample story from the "The Daily News" to show possible publicity from doing the wrong thing, like bringing contraband into prison, having sex with offenders or harassing peers.

That same afternoon, a headline ran in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch about the state paying $600,000 to a corrections department employee to settle a sexual harassment claim.

Phillips went through several scenarios to help notice improper behavior among staff and supervisors.

Two weeks later, Angela Nickelson went through more scenarios to prepare the recruits for inmates with special needs and those who will try to manipulate them.

Nickelson, 49, made a career out of corrections. She said in an interview that when she was hired in 1994, she was one of the smallest correctional officers in the department â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and likely the only one with a fresh college degree in elementary education.

"The brain is the most powerful tool you can have here," she said. "We are not all out there wrestling inmates every day."

A year after being hired, she said, she was relieved to be assigned to a death row housing unit at Potosi Correctional Center. Compared to the general prison population, she said, they were laid back. " She said people who work in corrections "aren't like normal people." She admitted that she has a potty mouth from working in the industry and prison lingo permeated her household. Instead of being grounded, her kids went to "administrative segregation" at home when they got in trouble.

Inmates and low pay don't seem to scare her. She didn't discourage her son, a former heavyweight wrestler, from the career. In 2018, his first full year of employment with the department, he made $35,679, according to a state database.

Mom, the veteran employee, made $41,382.

She specializes in training correctional officers. "Nothing about our job is about punishment, it's about rehabilitation and treating people as human beings," she told the class, assuring: "How you present yourself is how you will be perceived."

Many inmates have disabilities such as dementia, schizophrenia and post-traumatic stress disorder.

HIGHLIGHTS WITH HEGEMAN 12th District State Sen. Dan Hegeman Room 332, State Capitol Jefferson City, MOâ&#x20AC;&#x2C6;65101 Phone: 573-751-1415 dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov

BRINGING TRANSPARENCY TO THE NEW POSITION OF STATE DEMOGRAPHER In November, voters approved â&#x20AC;&#x153;Clean Missouri,â&#x20AC;? an expansive amendment to the Missouri Constitution that alters many fundamental structures of our state government. Among other things, the measure changes the way state legislative districts are drawn every 10 years, moving our state from a bipartisan, commission-based system to one under the primary control of a single individual: the unelected state demographer.

I have many concerns about this new, and unproven, process of legislative redistricting. However, I also recognize and respect that the people have spoken.Going forward, I believe it is the General Assemblyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsibility to ensure the new redistricting process is instituted in a way that is both fair and transparent. As state lawmakers, we need to clarify the vague details of Clean Missouri to fulfill the will of the voters.\Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I have sponsored Senate Bill 213. This bill, which was third read and passed by the Senate on March 28, takes many of the

anti-corruption aspects Clean Missouri instituted for state lawmakers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; such as regulations on lobbying, financial disclosures and public availability of records â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and applies them to the new position of state demographer. The measure also creates an online portal for public comments on the redistricting process. I believe these tools will help the state demographer perform his or her job as effectively as possible, while also encouraging everyday Missourians to participate in the drawing of their legislative districts..

As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns. My capitol office number is 573-751-1415, my email address is dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov and my mailing address is Room 332, State Capitol Building, Jefferson City, MO 65101.

Dear Annie: My co-worker, "Jane," is the front-desk person and has a bird's-eye view to everything. For the past several years she has noticed that it appears that my supervisor is having an affair with another co-worker. I, too, have noticed what appear to be signs of an affair. Although I do not approve (if this is the case), I am able to work without it disturbing me. Recently, it has started to affect my co-worker so much that she is now saying that this a hostile work environment.

My question is this, should I mention something to my supervisor before my co-worker takes it to HR? She has threatened to do this, but she is the type who is normally all talk no action.

I feel uncomfortable saying something to my supervisor, but if it got as far as HR then I would feel disloyal for not having given him a warning. I don't know how to handle this sensitive situation. -- Awkwardness at the Office Dear Awkwardness: First, stop chatting with Jane about the alleged affair. Speculation without action amounts to gos-

sip, and nothing good can come of it. The next time she tries to talk to you about it, tell her you're uncomfortable discussing it, and change the subject.

Of course, she's free to go to HR about the issue. And if it's impacting her ability to do her job, then she definitely should.

Do not intercede: What would the endgame be in telling your boss? It would make Jane vulnerable to preemptive attacks, and it would insulate your boss from the consequences of his own bad decisions. If he is having an inappropriate affair, that's a bad bet he chose to wager. Let the chips fall where they may; the stakes aren't yours.

Dear Annie: Thank you very much for the advice you give people, especially about attending various support groups. I want to suggest another group that you might recommend as a resource: Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families.

ACA has helped me tremendously.

I was abused as a child and learned dysfunctional behavior because of that.

Traffic from air freight is declining even as carriers increase their ability to move products through the air.

Demand for air freight fell 4.7% worldwide in February compared with the same time last year due to trade tensions, weakened economic activity and unsteady consumer confidence, according to the International Air Transportation Association, a trade group. Meanwhile, capacity grew 2.7%.

“Cargo is in the doldrums ...

And with order books weakening, consumer confidence deteriorating and trade tensions hanging over the industry, it is difficult to see an early

turnaround,” said Alexandre de Juniac, CEO of IATA, in a news release.

It was the 12th month in a row that capacity growth outstripped demand growth and the worst air freight performance in the last three years, the group said.

The biggest drop was in the Asia-Pacific region where weaker manufacturing conditions for exporters, ongoing trade tensions and a slowing of the Chinese economy impacted the market.

Latin America was the only region to post growth in demand.

“Governments need to realize the damage being done by protectionist measures,” Juniac said. “Nobody wins a trade war.”

I started doing drugs and drinking alcohol when I was just 8 years old. My alcohol and drug use eventually led to my selling drugs and committing other criminal acts. I spent about nine years in prison, off and on from ages 26 to 50. I got clean in one of my prison terms, and when I got out I had five years of sobriety under my belt. I ended up relapsing twice because of all the childhood trauma. I brought that learned behavior from childhood into my adult actions and relationships.

I have now been in ACA for two years and out of prison for two and a half years. I will have been clean for 10 years this month.

I would love for you to look into this program and promote it if you think it would be helpful. If you would like to print my story of hope for others I would be honored. -- Story of Hope in Reading, PA Dear Story of Hope: Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families looks like a wonderful organization and I'll be happy to recommend it as a resource in the future. Anyone interested in learning more about this Twelve-Step program can visit https://adultchildren.org.

Thank you very much for writing.
