Box 11426, Earl Alsop Ronald Shook 41 Salt Lake City, Utah - Letters Bear Sir: Your editorial of 12 Mar. 70 in which you express yourself as being against lowering the voting age to 18 is indicative of the archaic thinking with respect to what constitutes the grant of citizenship.

The older generation has sat by and allowed our entire environment the air, the waters, to be so almost irthe soil reversibly polluted that our future generation of children may be born physically and mentally handicapped; has sat Detroit to by and allowed manufacture vehicular monsters of such power that mass murder on the highways is acceptable; has sat by and allowed conditions of poverty, health and education degenerate into a violent has sat by and allowed 200 conglomerate business mergers to control 50'; of the economic production of this country; has sat by and allowed inflation to engulf us all.
