EXPRESSES HIS OPINION

AODy, 1CO. AAr Aoru
To the Editor:
As an outsider. or transient resi-
dent, | have been greatly amused by
the letters of irate citizens in re-
spouse to Mrs. McComas's and Mrs
Williams blast of rage. I would
say that it is quite evident that the
citizens who responded in fury had
never been out of the confines OF
Libby and seem to have deliberate
ly misunderstood the two ladies.
Is there one among you who
doesn't thrive on appreciation of
your efforts, no matter how small?
Then why do you think these boys
are less human than you? Don't
you know any other way of show
ing you do appreciate what they've
done for you than by prying talk?
Are you in such a backWater that
you aren't aware of events outside
your small community? Where's
your band? And what is wrong
with your civic organizations that
they're not out entertaining these
bows And what's wrong with you
individual citizens taking the boys
into your homes for dinner?
Stop being petty and taking it out
on the two ladies for pointing out
the truth to you.

LET'S CALL IT A COMPROMISE

Libby, Feb. Is, 1945
Dear Editor.
| would like to say a few words
pro and con on the item published
in the Forum of February |.
The ladies saw ar injustice done
certain service men and became in
dignant. Tiny put down what they
believed in all sincerity to be true.
They were little bold in their
statements but it takes quite a jolt
to wake some people up.
It's the truth that hurts they say,
and by the protests in the Febru-
airy 8 Forum made by the We-are-
good enough as we are citizens,
quite few sore spots were touched.
| will say the ladies lacked tact
and were a little too mucn on the
dramatic side However, | do be-
lieve the glory, the flag waving
part Of war is very important. 1t
gives the men incentive and spirit
to go on and be able to stand the
horrible realistic part. One thing |
will say for the ladies' they were
brave enough to sign their own
names and that is more than you
can say for the rest Of us.
Why not call it compromise,
