t-Tht lgulm wwWeefcly .JjertfarQIX., Thuradey, May H, 1977 rV , .. ..... - ...... , Letters From Oar Readers: Editor's Mailbag Sovereignty Is At Stake TO THE EDITOR: While thousands flail the branches of evil, only a few of us practice preventive medicine by chewing the roots. Because all dictatorships are inherently evil, standing eyeball to eyeball with proof that power corrupts and that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty will enable us to celebrate our Constitution's Bicentennial with confidence and ensure that our grandchildren will be free to celebrate our Tricentennial. Self respect being the foundation for our social contract, at least half of us are qualified to serve in our Congress. Amending our Constitution to limit the number of terms any one of us can serve in our Congress to three in our Senate and six in our House of Representatives will main tain stability, reduce the potential for corruption and im prove the performance of our Congress. Each of us can take control of our personal sovereignty and demonstrate our self respect by mailing copies of this letter with our personal comments to those of us we elected to lead. HUGH D.

Sheriff Winslow was train ing there at Fort Worth when Castle ; stalled his aeroplane in an effort to avoid colliding with a stu dent flyer who was just tak ing off from the field. His plane crashed and Castle died almost instantly, the student who was riding with Castle, however, survived. The Sheriff also has pictures of the crash and other photographs of Castle. He happened to be loafing near by on the Fort Worth field when the crash occured. Castle was a member of the Royal Flying Corps, and along with many other Canadian aviators was in the United States giving fly-, ing instructions. The crash, as Sheriff Winslow remembers it, took place in either February or January of 1918. There were so many fatal crashes on the field in Texas that it is hard to remember each one separately.
