PAGE 2—The Newberrv Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, April 1, 1971 uty? Itfnubrrrp i’ttn 1101 Boyce Street, Newberry, South Carolina 29108 PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY 0. F. Armfield, Jr., Owner Second-Class Postage Paid at Newberry, South Carolina SUBSCRIPTION RATES: $3.00 per year in advance; six months, $2.00. Letter to Editor March 30, 1971 LT. GALLEY FOUND GUILTY OF MURDER If Lt. Galley is guilty of pre meditated murder all service men fighting in the combat zones all over the world should be court-martialed right along with Lt. Galley. The U. S. Military is using Lt. Galley as a “whipping post” for all mistakes they have made in South East Asia. If former Pres. Harry S. Truman had given Gen. Douglas McArthur premission to cross the 38 de gree parallel this war could have been avoided. I say put the blame where it rightfully belongs, not on one brave man fighting to keep our land and other lands FREE! Thank you, Linda Cole Bolchoz IF NOT ME - THEN WHO? Many readers are no doubt familiar with the story of the civic-spirited individual who, when asked to serve on a com mittee or perform some chari table act, always put the re quest in perspective by saying, “if not me — then who?” Perhaps it is a question many people of this community will be asking themselves as they consider the urgency of this year’s Easter Seal campaign to raise funds for rehabilitation services provided by the Eas ter Seal Societv to more than 250,000 crippled children and adults. To help readers make a know ledgeable response to the ques tion, we feel they should know that the network of Easter SEal societies in the 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puer to Rico, operates largely with funds contributed by a generous and compassionate public inte rested in sharing the cost of helping the handicapped to a fuller and happier life. It takes rehabilitation centers with modern equipment, work shops and home employment, resident and day camps, hos pitals, and qualified professional personnel to help the crippled child, the stroke victim, the hard of hearing, the youth with a speech defect, and thousands of others with improvable dis abilities. So — the need is great, the cause worthy. By giving to Easter Seals, you help make possible more than you think. Let the answer be — you.
