HEPPNER GAZETTE -TIMES, Thursday, February 18, 1959 From where I sit ... ly Joe Marsh Lucky to Have Noisy Neighbors" A recent news item about an Air Force base and the towns people nearby illustrates a point I've made for some time. Most of the local people had the same complaint the roar of jets was irritating so a , group of them petitioned the Air Force to move the base. Then the Air Force invited the petitioners to the base to show them how vital it was to their defense. The people soon decided jet noise was really a welcome sound and all peti tions were dropped. From where I sit, jumping to conclusions without know ing all sides of a question is something people ought to avoid. It would make living together a lot easier. On little things, too like your prefer ence for tea or coffee and mine for beer. Understanding the other fellow's point of view will make traveling a lot smoother In this "jet" age of ours.
