—ie = wee we ae ~ ome -— 7 _ . ar O. (continuea -page 2) BIGOTRY AND FUTILITY HERE AT HOME ANE THE PAWNS TO BE SACRIFICED FOR THE GREED AND PROFIT OF WALL STREET. oo THE WAR IN VIET-NAW IS COSTING APPROXIMATELY $400,000,000.00 & WEEK AND 10 BILLION A YEAR. WHO REAPS THE PROFITS? IF IN ESSENCE WE ARE SHARING IN THIS PROSPERITY BY OUR OWN PERSONAL GOOD LIFE, THEN WE ARE PROSPERING AT THE EXPENSE OF THE BLOOD AND BONES OF FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS. . IF OUR OWN ECONOMIC GAIN MUST BE EARNED BY SUCH A ‘GRISLY TRADE, THEN WE ARE TRULY & VERY SICK SOCIETY. I HAVE JNVOLVED WYSELF IN THE CIVIL RIGHTS STRUGGLE FOR EQUAL RIGHTS HERE AT HOME, BUT THOSE RIGHTS ARE MEANINGLESS IF THEY ARE EVER ATTAZNED WITHOUT INTIBLECTUAL AND MEANINGFUL RESPONSIBILITY TO SPEAK OUT anp ‘fare ‘PART IN THESTRUGGLE FOR SURVIVAL FOR ENTIRE NATIONS, OUR OWN INCLUDMB. ESCALATION OF THE WAR MEANS TOTAL WAR AND COMPLETE DISINTEGRATION. PRO- LONGMENT OF THE WAR MEANS ISOLATION OF THE MOST POWERFUL MILITARY COUNTRYS: IN THE WORLD, FROWNED ON AND HATED BY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ON ALL THE CON- TINENTS OF THIS PLANET. ° PEACE IS DIGNITY. THE TRUE GENTLEMAN OF THE SPORTS WORLD IS THE MAN WHO HAS THE COURAGE AND THE CHARITY NOT TO FINISH OFF A LESSER OPPONENT WHEN HE HAS HIM ON THE ROPES. . AS ONE uy MENTIONED TO ME, YOU CAN STOP THE WAR BY REVERSING THE DRAFT LAWS «g SEND THE SONS OF THE RICH AND THE MIDDLE CLASS FIRST AND YOU WILL WITNESS A SCREECHING HALT. I CAN SEE IT NOW, ALL THE MAJOR CORPORATION OWNERS FORMING A LOBBY TO PASS THROUGH A BILL TO STOP THE WAR OR MORE NATURALLY TO REVERSE THE PROUEDURES BACK TO THE NORMAL OF DRAFTING THE POOR AND DEFERRING THOSE WHO CAN AFFORD TO GO TO COLLEGE. PEOPLE OF GOOD FAITH MUST EVALUATE MORE THOROUGHLY THE STATEMENTS MADE ABOUT THIS WAR; BY OUR LEADERS. THEY MUST SORT THROUGH THE BRAIN- WASHING, SLANTED REPORTING BY A MASS MEDIA FINANCED AND CONTROLLED BY THE HIGH PRESSURE PUBLIC RELATIONS OF BIG BUSINESS. THEY MUST weIGi” THE DIFFERENCE BETWER MONEY, FALSE PROSPERITY AND LOVE, LIFE AND BROTHERHOOD. I PRAY THEIR DECISSION WILL BE JUST AND HUMANE. ' LONG LIVE JUSTICE ** VIVA LA JUSTICTIA. RCG/jmd >
