Dear MIR. Hearst:
GENERAL days ago 1 wrote 10
y you thanking you for trying
to keep America out Of this war.
wanted you to know that the
youth OF this country appreciate
your attitude.
Here is a jingle that my fellow
campus students have seemed TO
appreciate, and get word that
other college editors appreciate 1t.
At least, they are writing to ask
to publish II.
IL is a little radical / must ad-
nit, but one has to be radical
these days. at least radical as the
word means getting at the root Of
things, to strike a happy balance.
1 think that the people In this
should know how our COL
lege students think and feel about
this question.
The people do not know.
There is very little being written
about the peace organizations In
colleges that are being formed at
this time.
Can you do anything about this?
hope so.
Sincerely.
