Dog Lovers on the Pan

LOG Lovers on the Fan
To the Editor of The Star:
The sentimental slush that some self
professed dog lovers sling around makes
me sick! Some Of these people allow
their dogs to exist in state of misery
that is revolving to behold-diseased
dirty, fea-ridden. They 60 away and
leave helpless animals to the mercy OF
the streets. They leave their dogs in
the house all day, with little chance for
exercise, fresh air and sunshine essential
for health.
These people also allow their dogs to
trespass in their neighbors' yards, tear
ing up and messing UP their property
biting their children, sometimes infect
ing them with rabies They allow their
dogs to bark continuously until the
frazzled nerves of their neighbors are
further frazzled. When their pups
Jump on your good clothes and tear or
dirty them, they think it is cute.
Apparently, all these people are inter-
ested in is having their egos flattered by
basking in the love and devotion dogs
blindly give humans, with no thought
of responsibility for the dependent ami
mails care in return.
Dog leashing has been one of human
ity's greatest aids to contented living.
1t should be permanent. A. F.

CT Questions Unanswered

To the Editor of The Star:
The G1s overseas are bitterly opposed
to the discontinuance Of the draft. Why
should the draft be discontinued?
Haven't we been overseas from 10 to So
months? We have wives, children,
mothers and fathers, besides our busi-
11esses and jobs, we are yearning to get
home 70.
Why isn't it right that the eligible
draftee, whatever the standards may be,
do his share In making this country
the kind we all want to live in?
