Though there are mere trashy beoks published today than in our country’s history, there are more good books being sold and read. than twenty or thirty years ago. Consider the quality of juvenile books, alone. This improvement holds true in art, music, the theatre, where we may not be producing as much of the geod, hut we are appreciating it more + when it does -appear. It seems we are cultivating higher standards of taste. i ® 0 0 IT'S OLD STUFF What is new about the new fad fer erew hair cuts?

You need net consider yourself overly sen- sitive or squezmish by objecting to the sound of “meat-grinder tac- tics” “Operation Killer”. Amer- icans are normally peace-minded peeple, desifous of maintaining a decent way of life. When war cemes they realize what it entails and share the feeling of wishing to defeat the enemy. We would not chinge the aggressiveness a nd strategy of our military leaders who are resisting the foe in the cam- paign. There is nothing pretty a- bout war nor will werds paint it so. The object of hattle is to cut lines of communication, capture or destroy weapons, demolish indust- * ries that are war potentials and put cut of action the enemy troops, But | in so doing, do we accept the ac- ticn callously and dispassionately, - with no sensitivity te the labelling | of such as “meat grinder tactics” | and “Operation Killer”?
