United The States by any was instrumental in helping Japan and West Germany to their feet after World War II. Were certainly not opposed to this newest gesture. However, the timing is open to question. One organization which has worked for the release of prisoners of war in North Viet Nam, Voices in Vital America, has issued this of statement: We ask all Americans to wire their congressmen to demand that not one penny is given to rebuild until North Vietnam they account for all POWs satisfactorily and MIAs. THIS is POSITION fully reasonable. Lists given by the Communists have not included all v persons known captured in the Indochina conflict. In addition, while a settlement has been negotiated which permits U.S. withdrawal and preserves the independence of South Viet Nam, enemy soldiers still control areas of the South. And they are still aggressively engaged in Laos and Cambodia. How can we in good conscience earmark billions in reconstruction aid for North Vietnam while its military machine continues to clutch land beyond its own borders?

Virtually every week, letters hit this editors desk which are un- signed. The authors want them published, feeling, I suppose that the world will be edified and made better by the literary pearls contained therein. Most of the time, tljjpse epistles are critical, caustic anh border on the downright nasty. Tne writers feel free to vent their spleen on other persons and institutions but only from a cloak of anonymity.
