Dear Sir: What do you think of the mas termind military set-up in Berlin at the present time? If we had a pair of recalcitrant youngsters who couldn’t find ways and means to get along better with each other we would certainly tan their back sides. About all the army brass, both Russian and American, seem to be able to accomplish is to fur nish fuel for Mr. Truman’s foreign relation activities and to pull us a little closer to war. Have we forgotten so quickly the results of the last one? Which in turn brings us around to the new military training act. Has it ever occured to you that we could do each and every one of the following enumerated things with the $3,000,000,000 per year to be appropiated. This is all in addition to the present staggering military establishment which is spending $27,200,000 PER DAY— every day—all year long. 1. Probably the most important of all. To maintain one mental and psychiatric behavior clinic in every county of the United States. RIVERVIEW — Mr. and Mrs. Louis Schroeder spent Easter in Tillamook. Riley Hall is seriously ill.
