LETTERS to the EDITOR ' *4 * 4 * . , (Continued from Pace Two) you for the newsp'yp ■ ads and Bill Norris for the radio covl age that made our re cent auction a fund - raising success. The “Times” donated much valuable space and WPNF gave us announcements and news coverage. When bad weather forced post ponement, both the newspaper and the radio station continued coverage until the auc tion could be held. This clearly shows in dividual interest on your part and that of Mr. Norris; and this interest and help was in no small way responsible for the success of the auction. We know there are many in Transyl lvania county who understand and ap preciate the public emergency service the Rescue Squad is organized to give. Few, however, are in the position to be as help ful and are also as generously indined as are you and the f taffs of the newspaper and radio station. We in the Brevard Unit con sider ourselves fortunate indeed to have your so-often demonstrated support as well as the continued backing of so many of our fellow Brevard and Transylvania citizens. Best wishes for the continued success and growth of The “Times” and Radio Sta tion WPNF. Sincerely, Lt. J. C. Rowe Brevard Unit, Transylvania Rescue Squad April 7, 1971 Mr. John Anderson, Editor The Transylvania Times Brevard, N. C. 28712 Dear Mr. Anderson: I am a senior at Brevard Senior High School and 1 would like to ask where Mrs. Roy DeLong acquired the idea that stud ents are “heathen robots, unable to read, write or cipher.” Could she have judged all students by one youth? If so, then she is as acceptable to revolutionary agitation and biassed opinion as she claims the stud ents are. Has she ever seen a classromm in ac tion? I am sure that if she took a few hours of her time one day, she could gain a valu able education herself. Mrs. DeLong has Insulted all students and their teachers which I consider to be an unfair act. Would you also think religious teachers unquali fied since they too teach? limes have changed and education needs to change also. North Carolina is low enough on the education ladder compared to other states. Would the anarchical move of not paying school taxes help the fate of the students? Mrs. DeLong’s re sults would be a generation of uneducated persons who could be swayed by any demagogue that happens by. Is this what you want Mrs. DeLong? Sincerely, Robert E. Johnson 100 Minor St. Brevard, N. C. 18712 April 5th, 1971 Dear Mr. Anderson: I was never so disgusted in all my life as I was when they returned a verdict to Lt. William Calley. It made me sick to think he went over there under their com mand and serve their country to fight for the freedom of those who turn right around and take freedom from him. It disturbs me to think that our boys’ life isn’t valued no more than that. ■ I have a son in combat in Vietnam Tnow- No one knows the feeling of having I love ones over there no more than me. FSo please I am asking everybody, whether they have loved ones over there or not, if they haven’t already written our President a letter of support for Lt. William [Calley to do so. Please do so today. Please don’t stand back and let our boys be disgraced and de stroyed when they have offered every thing for all of us, even their life. They wear their uniform proudly. Please | don’t stand back and let them down when they have done so much for you and me. i The least we can do is stand up for them which isn’t nothing compared to what | they are doing for us.

EiTAiumiD T»*4 insurance Senator Sam (Continued from Paso Two) to take pictures of the other persons present and to record the speeches made. The major problem encountered by the agents, according to one wit ness, was the fact that they were unable to tape the pro ceedings because five Army helicopters flew so low over the meeting that it was, im possible to hear.! the speeches. It is important to note that the Army was not the sole fo cus of this Senate investigation. The Subcommittee is deeply concerned about the overall use of surveillance by the Fed eral Government. The Subcom mittee, when ft began its in quiry into this matter, request ed all Federal departments to reveal what laws and rules govern their demands for per sonal information. Much of the testimony re ceived by the Subcommittee in dicates that the guidelines which go down through the bureaucracy and which govern surveillance are somewhat meager and often pave the way for autocratic interpretations of the data gathered. Also, it is safe to say, that much of this Federal information gathering about beliefs, habits, and as sociations is of limited value to the government. Even sov what ever intelligence is gathered and analyzed may go into a da ta bank, and once there, it can stay forever. An unwise deed or word, that in bygone years would have been forgotten, now is preserved for whatever purposes may suit the govern ment in some future era. Far beyond the consequences of the moment, the frightening part of it all is the potential for Big Brotherism, and that is why it matters now.

New York ranks a close second with 112 carriers, and Los Angeles is third with 99. )J What Is This Thing Called Justice? if (Continued From Page Two) count, sentenced him to a total of two years in prison and recommended that he be given psychiatric help. Case No. 2. On Sept. 28, 1969, a 40-year-old man was arrested by a city policeman and ( charged with driving under the influence. He blew .32. Had he scored three points higher he would have taken him to Memo rial Hospital to have his stomach pumped. He pleaded not guilty in District Court on Oct. 28th, but was found guilty and fined $100. The man put up a $100 cash bond and appealed to Superior Court In late November his case was nolle prossed with leave—dismissed. His attorney, H. Edward Knox, remem bers the case. Knox told The News that his client had a “totally clear record,” that he drove about 50,000 miles a year and that he need ed a driver’s license in his work. WHEN THE CASE was appealed to J‘ Superior Court Knox said that Elliott M.“ Schwartz, who was solicitor at that time,? agreed to accept a plea to reckless driving.! Conviction in a drunken driving easel carries an automatic one year license revo- * cation; conviction in a reckless driving .] case does not. Knox said Schwartz told the judge that he wanted to take a plea to reckless driving but Knox said the judge, without looking ! at the case, refused to accept the plea. Knox said Schwartz then told the judge, if that was his (the judge’s) policy, then he (Schwartz) would handle it. KNOX SAID it was his understanding that the case was to have been redocketed in Superior Court at a later date. He said Schwartz’s father was ill at that time and that the case may have slipped Schwart’s mind. Schwartz told The News that he did not remember the case, but he said if he did take a nolle pros, he did it with the intention of putting the case back on the icourt calender at a later date. After his father’s death earlier this year, [Schwartz resigned from office to take over [the family business. He told The News that he would ask [Interim Solicitor Jerry W. Whitley to re [open the case. Case No. 3. A woman stopped her car to make a left hand turn last Dec. 23rd and was hit from behind by a car diven by a 47-year-old man. He had been drinking heavily, accord ing to the police officer who arrested him. He was charged with driving under the influence, public drunkenness, and failing kto reduce speed to avoid an accident. “I EXPECT if he had blown into that tube (the breathalyzer) I would have had to take him to the hospital,” the officer told The News. “He would have read .35 at least. He was way out.” The officer said that he and his part ner took him to jail and called two at torneys for him. The man refused to take [the breathalyzer test. “The only reason that I kept up with the case is because he told me, ’You’ll never! ktry me for drunk driving.’ And 1 didn’t!" The man was scheduled for trial in District Court on Jan. 19, 1970. The woman who was driving the car he was accused of hitting was suboenaed to testify, but the tcase was postponed. It was rescheduled for Feb. 12th, the woman was subpoenaed, but again it was postponed. It was rescheduled for Feb. 26th and postponed, and for March 3rd and postpon ed. Both times the woman was subpoenaed. * On March 17th the man who said he would not be tried for drunken driving pleaded guilty to reckless driving, fined $50 and set free. The officer was not notified of the trial, he said, and court records show the woman was not subpoenaed to testify. The officer, who is a veteran of eight years on the force, said he understood. “The more money a man’s got the less chance you’ve got of convicting him,” he said. ‘The less money he’s got, the more chance you’ve got of convicting him. Just depends on what kind of people you're arresting and what kind of pull they’ve got.” t TRY TIMES CLASSIFIED ADS FOR RESULTS LTD Country Squlr* No.1 favorite of Carolina swingers, the Ford TeanVs 3-way tailgate.
