Upon completion comple-tion the billot was to hove been mailed to you. In my opinion, there is on y one '"' HIule" B ?ay. Every other problem relates . , nnin A o n i to it. It is now time for Americans o buckle down and fully realize the seriousness of the Vietnam War. I am not referring to parents, families and close friends of young families andclose friends of young men of draft age and who are n service. They know the seriousness through personal experience. Rather, I am referring to the general public and to Congress. With the sharp recommendations made by President Johnson on New Year's Day to curtail the gold " i drain of this country and thus pro- as she is. History shows us that our country coun-try has almost always placed "butter" "but-ter" before "guns". More recent history shows us that this has been a costly choice. Only after World War II did "guns" become of equal importance. There is an attitude prevailing in our country today that cries "butter" before "guns". People who hold this attitude would apparently ap-parently trade the future of our country and its free enterprise system sys-tem that has made this country great for a shortlived and nebulous security. .Well, which should come first, "guns" or "butter"? In my opinion "guns" should come first. West Millard County has between bet-ween 75 and 80 young men in service ser-vice right now. This excludes the career men from the area. West Millard is proud of her young men in serevice. Even though some of these young men hated the draft law passionately, they are serving honorably. hon-orably. Many enlisted.

Such young men and their counterparts deserve consideration and their welfare should be of paramount importance to this whole country. On the Vietnam issue our young men feel that it is time America stands firm md says to communism, commu-nism, "This Fnr. No further." Wiien one discusses our country's involvement in Vietnam with one of these young men, one is very likely to hear, '"Yes, I am aware of the Hungarian Revolt and what an opportunity it presented to our country to take a stand against communism.

Military Preparedness secures the opportunity for all Americans to earn their "butter". I would urge each of you to vote no on domestic legislation that calls for huge outlays of "butter". I would urge each of you to look closely at Britain today and its financial fi-nancial disorders caused mainly by a government that was trying o , provide everything for everybody from birth to death. I would urge each of you to help this nation by putting first things first and this means notional security above individual in-dividual security. My last urging is that each of you be estatesmen who think of future generations rather than politicians who think, of future elections.

Some of the highlights of the film are a rattlesnake barbecue, a snowshoe cougar hunt, an elk with only one horn in the center of its head and a costly boat accident on the Snake River. Deep snows of two winters ago were not enough to keep Roby from flying into the Rocky Mountains Mount-ains Wilderness area for a cougar hunt with dogs. Rare Scenes Shown Actual scenes of cougar kills and locating the cougar in trees and rocks produce some rare sequences. se-quences. Few people have seen the savage treatment of a coyote by a cougar who has found the coyote coy-ote feasting at a dead elk. Besides possessing admirable pa tience and woodsmanship to film elk, bear, moose, deer, Rohy apparently ap-parently is among those men still able to back-pack heavy loads. At one point in his film he packs a 200-pound dead cougar up a mountain moun-tain after he had killed it at close range. Elk are shown through all seasons, sea-sons, the cruel winter, retreating into the high country with spring, elk with horns in velvet and on into the hunting season. The upset of his big boat in the churning rapids of Idaho's Snake River is one scene of many the spectators will never forget.
