"I want to thank you for
The
PLA1N
TRUTH. You exprcss many things
I
know and have seen on my travels
around the world. Having just returned
from Moscow and Leningrad and from
behind the !ron Curtain,
I
know more
than ever we should guard our think–
ing, way of life, and freedom in the
United States. . . Last year
1
was in
As ia and saw the overpopulation, hun–
ger, disease and the many troubles of
many peoples.
1
am grateful for a group
of people such as you at Ambassador
College who are doing something about
it. As an educator
1
do what
I
can in
my small way."
Mrs. Gwen K.,
Columbus, Ohio
"l
would think many readers will
ask, 'What can
I
do to solve these prob–
Iems
?' -
see January,
1970
issue, 'The
60's
a Paradoxical Decade.' First of
a!J, couples can solve the population
explosion and pollution by limiting
their childrcn to two.
1f
they wish
additional children, they can adopt
them. Secondly, everyone can write their
elected representative. Kcep telling it to
us like it is, but give
us
hope by telling
us what we can do to make this a fit
world to live in."
Donald G.
B.,
Linn, Missouri
"1 have received my free copies of
your disgusting magazine. You are
extremely fortunate to be in a country
which exercises the freedom of the press
so that you may be allowed to print
your bigotcd misconceptions."
TV
Miss Lurie G.,
Santa Ana, Calif.
"Thank you for a refreshing look at
the real threat to American youth - the
Madison Avenue ad man, script writer
and media. . . .
J
wish this artide had
gone onc stcp further. After you, the
parent, turn off the TV, you should
writc letters saying why you've done so
to severa! of the leading commcrcial
flrms who sponsor the harmful programs
and sexy ads. Tcll thcm you are also ask–
ing your friends to takc a sccond look
beforc buying their products, and that
you are not buying any of their products
until there is a change
in
their sponsor–
ship for American dectncy."
Mrs. E. E. M.,
Seattle, Wash.

"My own class of fifth graders admit
to watching TV as much as five hours
a day - sd1ool days! And parents com–
plain about low grades - 'it's usually
the teacher's fault.' "
Vietnam
Frances H.,
Madras, Orcgon
"1 am an enlisted man in Vietnam.
It
has seemed to me that all media in the
United Statcs have truly missed the
many problems of Vietnam. You tell
it
exactly like it is in 'The Endless War'
in your December edition of
The
PLAJN
TRUTH.
I
wish your magazine could
reach all Americans so they could all
read 'The Endless War.' Gentlemen,
we've lost the war.''
SP5 John
C.,
APO San Francisco, Calif.
"l
was amazed at how accurately your
article, 'The Endless War' [Decembec
1969]
summed up the situation in Viet–
nam. Surely the author must have once
been here himself!
It
is pathctic the way
the U. S. restricts its men from fighting
to win. In some cases, we are not even
allowed to return fire when the enemy
shoots at us first. Each one of us is
counting the days left in his tour of
duty and looking forward to returning
borne."
