WYE PARENTS and kin of

your article concerning
the injustice and inequality Of our

Such injustice and inequality
sabotage the morale Of the boys

Your soflcitude for the welfare
of our country, and your efforts
TO keep us out Of devastating for

Mr.. VIM. Randolph Hearst,
Dear Sir:
A CCEPT my congratuIa-
~ ton for your splendid edi-
torial on world peace.
It is quite refreshing TO hear a
strong voice, above the babel OF
war hysteria, pleading the cause
Of peace.
However, I believe the world Is
centuries away from maintaining
law and order and peace by broth
erly love and honesty.
cannot believe that the govern
ments OF the world and their
people can get along peaceably
without the use of lawful, organ
lied force or that there can be
world peace until the governments
OF the enslaved people Of Europe
and Asia are returned to them.
I trust that your editorials or
world peace will be more fire.

shot less than a minute later when
he took a golfing swing at Bill
Benson's attempted pass from the

With Andy Branigan out OF ac-

Anderson played almost the en-
