Two Sides

l think the Farmers Union
and United Nations are useful
organizations, not perfect, but
like our great government,
capable of improvement by an
alert citizenry. They are hui
man institutions made up of
fallible human beings. Let's
not condemn something for
not being perfect, let us work
to correct the defects.
Mrs. Vern Miller
Letter to the Editor:
Thank you, Mr.. Dasinger, for
your gallant effort at answer
ing my questions.
l will admit my error in
believing the VIEW. study
group brought Philbreck here
and appreciate your explana-
ton that who ever was respon-
sible for his speaking in Sid
ney, in your opinion, was in
error when they led people to
believe he was an expert on
communism. If my information
is correct he did touch on the
subject Of the Farmers Union
and an expert is aware of all
the facts.
In substance, MIR. DaSinger,
you are admitting that if a
columnist follows your line
of thinking it's unimportant
he admitted, under oath, he
drew on his imagination and
made inexact statements. Mr..
Pegler has written, too, quote:
''that it is perfectly all right
to create fiction about a real
person, because if you do it
several years after it happens,
nobody will know the differ
ence anyway" This man writes
for American Opinion? This
man you admire? Read my
Life in Court" by Louis Nicer.
I was slightly startled to
have the co-ordinator for the
John Birch Society remind me
of the obvious that if l didn't
like Pegler that no one was
forcing me to read him. 1t re-
minded me of an incident
when young son was repri-
manded for an act he knew
to he wrong. He, too, was i'm
mediately on the defensive
and told me if it bothered me
rot to look. l forgave him this
childish remark as at age foul
one is only a child.
Are you in the habit o.
jumping at conclusions, Mr.
Dasinger? If 1 don't read Peg
Ter 1 HAVE to read Pearson
and Lippman? If I'm not ia
I have to be tkin? If the SUI
!, isn't shining the weather ha
to be stormy? If I criticiz
: portions of an anti-communis
= group this makes me pro
:. communist? If I'm not fond c
! sweets I have to love di
: pickles? A way of thinkin
y such as this could reach man
} erroneous conclusions.
If MIR. Anderson reads Flu,
n ton, Sheen and Martin Luthe.
S Pegler and Pearson, Edgar F
: Hoover and Robert WEIGH, i
e other words if he believes, a
' I do, that no one is well in
. formed unless he reads bot
: sides of any subject, your sur
mise that we read the sam
e literature could be correc+
e Have you, Mr.. Dasinger, eve
S cancelled a magazine subscrip
ton because that magzine dis
agreed with you?
S If your first concern, M.
IS Dasinger, is informing the pull
a lie in lieu of proving you
e superiority as a debater III
: fairly certain the Sidney Hel
l aid would gladly publish you
: views ON the United Nations.
