The cotton burial flag does not stand up well under weather conditions, Urscnbach said, however, due to the Persian Gulf Crisis, there has been a large run on flags. Flags were ordered in from Congressman Bill Orton and also senators Hatch and Gam, but it is unknown if there will be enough flags for Memorial Day. Those who have paid for a nylon flag and it is not on the pole honoring your loved one, please be patient w ith us as we are doing all we can to secure flags, Urscnbach said.

He said the British have reported 150,000 people died with more wounded.. He said the country has lost its basic infrastructure and oil fires can continue for another two years. He went on to say that US raids into Kuwait took place every three hours and there is no way to evaluate the damage to earth, air and sky. While McGovern applauded Bushs success in gaining collective action into the opposition to Iraqs military aggression and in obtaining United Nations approval in the use of force against Iraq he criticized the president for not giving sanctions more time to work. "Is this the true way to a new world order?" He said the war was unnecessary and unwise and represented the failures of diplomacy and patience which did not meet the criteria of those who want the military power of Iraq destroyed. He felt that sanctions would have shut down Iraq within a year. He also said the USnccds to use mori Caution bn wiapon' sales.

"Were never going to war with Russia as they have too many domestic prob- lems." He added that no one is threatening Japan and Western Europe today. Concerning his presidential ambitions in 1992, McGovern, who was defeated by Richard Nixon in 1972, said, "Its obvious if the election were held today Bush would walk away with it." But, he pointed out that he feels Bush is vulnerable in domestic issues and that the American people are becoming concerned about what is happening halfway around the less block. He said he would not vote for a tax increase to balance the budget as a tax on everyone now would force us from a recession into a depression. However, he would raise taxes in the top bracket from 28 percent to 35 percent and increase taxes on the top, profitable corporations and on imported oil. He believes taxes on middle-inco- Americans me should be cut and that Social Security withholding should be reduced. He said Dan Quayle is unqualified "in every respect" to be president and that Bush was reckless in giving him the second most powerful office in the country. VANCE Okla.-- AIR FORCE ) Second Lt.
