STUDENT WRITES OF DISMAY OVER VIET NAM FORUM The following letter ' was written by Rod Melsek, son of LeRoy and Lorraine Engeln Melsek of Fort Myers, Fla., and printed in a recent issue of a Florida newspaper. Rod was an office employee of the Plaindealer during the summer of 1964 and is now a student at Edison Junior college. Portions of his letter are reprinted- below: EJC VIET FORUM "It was with great dismay that I learned this week pt the plans of a group of instructors at Edison Junior College to hold a forum on the Viet Nam crisis this Wednesday evening, Oct. 20. This will be the first of many such forums dealing with the problems and issues of our time, and at this first one it seems that the instructors involved are planning debate the pros and cons United States involvement in that Asian country's fight for freedom. "Concerning the Viet Nam crisis, we have heard a lot about students and instructors staging teach-ins, picketing and marching to military installations protesting U.S. involvement in that Asian war. It has now even reached the point where classes are being conducted by students dealing in ways of avoiding the draft. But it is my belief that those who partake in such pacifist activities represent only a very small minority of instructors and students on our campuses. The vast majority who do support our country in this Asian conflict and who support the ideals of liberty and freedom for all peoples of the world have not yet been heard from, and consequently there are some who believe that a vocal minority speaks fjft* the vast majority. In a fetter to the Miami Herald dated Oct. 14, one of the instructors at Edison who plans ,to partake in the forum stated,. "What is required on the college campuses today and in the business, labor and political communities is not less dissent but more." If this instructor truly believes that more m&rches, more 4 jin ewS BUSY THREE CLUB A meeting of the Busy Three 4-H club was held at the home of Ken, Allen and Don Etten, where an eelction place.

As far as the Viet Nam situation is concerned, I feel that the time for talk is over. It ended with the movement of r e g u l a r a r m y t r o o p s f r o m North Viet Nam into the state of South Viet Nam and with the terrorist bombings of American installations in that country, resulting in the deaths of American personnel. Up until this time Americans had debated as to what action to take in connection with South Viet Nam's fight for freedom. After these events, however, our President took decided action to prevent the spread of tyranny and oppression in that area of the world. It was at this moment that the debate should have ended and ail Americans should have com? to the aid of their government and supported our action. But a group of people in this country, pacifists and subversives I wish to call them, did not wish to end the debate, and so they carried their deranged message of appeasement onto the campuses of our universities and mushroomed them into marches, debates and teach-ins. "It makes me sick to think that intelligent men who call themselves American advocate such as this. And so I say that if this forum is held and if any students partake in it then a black mark will have been placed on Edison Junior College which can never be erased because in their desire to retain that most precious freedom we all are guaranteed, freedom of speech and the right of dissention, these instiuctors, administrators of the institution who allow the forum, and students who attend have forgotten the meaning of the word patriotism."
