I wu a 'Western Union delivery

out into the country to deliver the

fate I saw the big, fat woman run
screaming out the back door. Work!
War II had just started. And, her
•cm waa dead, dead, dead.
'My last day at the front lines
was on the banks of the Moselle Ri-
ver. I was counting dead American
hoys. The memory of those rows of
twisted, bloody, tom bodies has nev-
er 'left me. Some other mothers' sons
were dead, dead, dead.
When someone talks about .the war
in Viet Nam, I wonder how many
mothers they have had to chase a-
cross plowed fields to give a tele-
gram to — or how many bodies they
have counted.
Ho Chi Minh and Barry Goldwat-
cr have both mistaken America's
peace overtures as signs of weak-
ness. But both of tl>em have enough
military rank to get to the front
lines if they really wanted to light.
Hi?y just want other people’s sons
to get dead, dead, dead
•President Dwight Eisenhower long
ago warned of the possibility that
the military and industrial complex
would keep America in hot water
long enough for them, to take over
the powers of government. So long
as 'America is threatened, we are
naturally going to commit all our
industrial, military and governmen-
tal powers to defense.
ftit, H we are just kept in hot wat-
er so people will not he aware of
how many millions of dollars arc
being made by tin; industrial com-
plexes!, bow many big investors arc
exploiting the very people wc arc
supposedly dying to protect, then
some serious and uncomfortable ques-
tions need to be asked. Even if we
are as unpopular as Senators Morse
a«l Fulbright, we must dare to pro-
hibit the wealthy from using Ameri-
can blood merely to enhance wealth.
A soldier with 100 men under him
may he a captain. But if he has
20,000 he is a general. Naturally, he
is going to favor conditions which
keep 20,000 men under him. The
steel companies can complain about
labor costs, but if America has to
have tanks, guns, and ships, the
price of steel will not b the real
consideration.
An automobile may last six years.
A tank is lucky to make it through
one campaign. And the market for
bul.cts is not glutted with second-
hand models. The industrial giants
in Germany are living proof of their
ability to even lose a war and come
out winner.
This is NOT to say whether we
should be in Viet Nam. It is to say,
as General Ridgeway put it, we had
better be awfully sure of our ob-
jectives. I am not nearly as worried
about giving aid and comfort to the
enemy as I am about how to give it
to mothers of the dead, dead. . .
Grasp your opportunities, no mat-
ter how pool- your health: nothing «'
worse for your health (than boredom.
