Show MS, V Dangers lurk in gun control To the editor: Each time a prominent person is shot the incident is used for propagandizing for outlawing the particular type weapon used. When President Kennedy was shot in Dallas there was an outcry for outlawing cheap rifles. Now that Wallace and Sen. Stennis were shot with cheap pistols there is an outcry for outlawing these. I would like to remind our editorial writer and our readers that Communists did not take over any of the 50 odd nations they now control until after the citizenry was disarmed. I urge citizens to reject all attempts to register firearms or disarm us. Rather lets emphasize the exercise of existing laws to punish those who use weapons to commit crimes. COLEMAN L.

To the To the editor: Now that the people of Penrose Drive have emerged victorious with their barricade standing as a monument to the selfishness of the haves, and I see our hopes trickling down the drain along with the melting snows, I wonder if I might pose another point. All too soon this winter is coming to an end and we are approaching another long summer of droopy eyelids, yawning faces, and griping voices, as we endure our Daylight Saving Time. waking refreshed rather than drowsy. In my youth we, too, liked an extra hour of sunlight, but at work we decided on it, and we would anive early, and leave with truly one hour of sunlight left. The older folks and children were left to rise and retire as usual. I would be in favor of that now, and then a family wanting to take in a drive-imovie wouldnt have to wait until 9:30 to start, and arrive home at 3:30 a.m. with poor dad having to go to work at 7 and he still has to. Surely, in a city this size, with only a handful of golfers compared to the overall population, there must be others like myself who would enjoy watching television after it is dark, listening to the chirp of crickets at ten p.m. rather than the screaming of tired children in the streets, and Yes,' even my cat, Idiot, doesnt change her schedule.

This is from Howard J. Philips, the mhn chosen by the President to dismantle the Office of Economic Opportunity. The sad thing is that according to Philips. it was the flagship agency of the Great Society. This apof the peared on Page Feb. 4th morning newspaper. Nixon had budgeted and let it -go for four more years. Why? If the Great Society was Marxist, good reason why the " apologists for that administration spent a lot of time disextrem- - , right-wincrediting who were telling theisis truth. It is absolutely frighten- to contemplate how many people in both high and low voted for places actually Marxism. How many more times are people going to be swept along with such a slogan as All the Way With LBJ without stopping to research and study what implications are involved? $6761 million is a' lot of money for one years budget. Multiply that by four. Again, that is a lot of money (which we did not and dont have) to ' tax and borrow for achieving political ends. It is hoped that before long more of our people will buy constitutional and concepts help sterr the tide of alien philosophies before we find ourselves sans the freedom and comforts identified with life in these United States.
