I rill continue in the verbal tattle. I love a good fight and usually respond in like kind when I am attacked. Mr. Healy did not stick to he issue-El Salvador. Intead Healy labeled college tudents who protest as ored. In my opinion, anyone vho would follow their [overnment to war without luestion has been brainwashed. Healy appears to be ust such a person, believing everything he reads in his norning paper or sees on the lightly news. HEALV WAS correct in ne of his assumptions. I do ot always trust "our elected overnment." Our elected overnment consists of >eople who are human eings like you and me-they re not always right. No, I /ould not follow them lindly.

If he were able nt not rrect same right. There are numerous religious organizations, international tribunals, and even congresspeople who agree. The new government in Washington would have us build weapons and armies at the same time it sets our country back twenty years in the realm of social improvements. Many of the siuuenis at US(J today will not be here next year if Mr. Reagan has his way. I BELJEVE that there is enough money in America to provide college educations for all who qualify and wish to attend. Mr. Reagan would classify the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant as a give-away program and he would giveit-away for another bomb. We already have enough bombs to blow up the earth. I do not trust Mr. Reagan. Mr. Reagan is a rich man's president. Wars make rich men richer and ooor. young men dead. Unfortunately, in America today many who are not-sorich have been brain-washed into seeing as "the rich man" sees.
