"l think the people who give you the
money to print the alleged PLAIN
TRUTH are wasting their money. They
should donate it to an organization that
could help put an end to sorne of the
starvation going on in the world, rathe r
than just write about it."
Margaret

Palo Alto, California
"Whether
1
agree or not with what
you say, you just trigger my brain to
start thinking. And now, may
I
ask you
to send me sorne back copies of your
magazine? The very ones
I
threw
away."

"l
have an unusual request.
I
would
like
The
PLAIN TRUTH in reverse, that
is, from October,
1969,
to as far back as
you can make available to me without
too much trouble. The copy of the June–
July,
1934,
PLAJN TRUTH was, as you
say, primitive or rough.
J
found its con–
tents on tbat first page were just as 'eye
catching' and captivating as
The
PLAIN
TRUTH today."
Peter B.,
Belmont, Mass.
"l
often imagine all the people on
the staff as being sturdy-looking people,
holding an old family Bible under one
arm and waving an American flag in
the other hand. Not that it is a bad
picture - s imply that you are as uni–
form in looks and policy as a band of
hippies are, in their own way.
I
often
wish
I
could be more like you, though.
At least I'd believe in something, which
is more than
I
do now."

Mind Pollution
"In your February issue of
The
PLAIN TRUTH the artide entitled
'Ambassador's Answer to mind Pollu–
tion' really got to me. I can't believe it.
You're trying to tell me there is a col-
lege where no one has illicit sex, takes
dope, wouldn't think of addrcssing any–
one without a 'yes sir' or 'no sir,' goes
about his daily routine happily, joy–
ously.
If
this is so they are not, as you
say, 'decent and disciplined human
beings' - they are 'disciplined robots'."

"Please cancel al! further propaganda

I

no longer endure these distortions . ..
Possibly when my seoility returns to me,
as it did when
I
originally subscribed,
in my old age, Pll re-subscribe for a

seems to be interested in your publica–
