In Mr. Luke's article, he promised Mr. Peterson a chsnee to reply in similar fashion If he so desired. While The Herald does not. tree with all of Mr. Petersen's contentions, it with prinU his reply, in full . and without chance.)

Thanks for the chance to but air my side of the discussion please don't try to draw me into a "battle of letters to the editor". You're a professional writer with a newspaper behind you and I should just have sense enough to Is - Postal Subs To Receive Hourly Cut . Substitute employes of Provo will be affected by a postofflce 500-ho-ur cut per month and residential districts will receive one delivery per days as a. result of a national slash in postal operating funds, according to Lavar Christensen. acting postmaster. Salary, erpployes of the Provo office have not yet been affected by the cut, he said. Employed now are 11 men on substitute basis, some working over and some under the eight hour daily time. No substitutes will be laid off,- - but all will get an equal mount of working time. Business districts of the city will still receive the twice daily 1 . nail delivery, but the residential one.

Fifteen min utes after our discussion your publisher called me and we had little talk about the real issue "Is .the Herald a real Provo Booster?" "Now Luke, you know me well enough to know that I enjoy either hearing, reading, or making a wen oaroea criticism where it is needed. In fact, that is what lead to my talk with.you and as long as you "call 'em as you see 'em" I will be happy to read and enjoy your columns provided, you call 'em fairly and give both sides of your story. In this case you gave your side on July J5th and, after some prodding, my side on July 7th. In fact, your article of the 7th shows that you agreed with me and felt that such an explana tion was in order. Makes Contention "But now s back to what we started out to talk about. The Herald is the most potent mould er of public opinion in our town. My contention is that the Herald policy isn't building Provo's institutions, organizations, and rep- utation the way it could do. When you view every single event as a critic, you are likely to criti cize much more than is needed or healthy. I've lived in Provo only seven years and yet I find myself defending the Chamber of Com merce, tlse University, Civic Clubs, Civic Leaders, the Utilities, etc. Why? Maybe there are too many critics ; and not enough boosters. When you just criticize and sneer and tell about how it is done elsewhere you are taking the easy way Jout. I just believe with all my heart we should our neighbor hoods, our kids, our ball teams, our town, state and nation. I have to admit that I. am too critical and I hereby pledge to try to ease up especially on newspaper writers. Constructive criticism is needed and helpful but unneces sary criticism is useless and de structive. Who has built this land boosters or critics? "Now Luke; I've had my say and you've had yours. I think you sort of took advantage of your po sition by printing and not too ac chosen excerpts from curately our supposedly private .converse tion so I' ask x that you print this without editorial comment or footnote. By the way, Luke, you're one oft those civic leaders I frequently find myself defend ing. Come on over and we will read each other a couple of chap-o- n 'How to Win Friends and Influence People.
