Its summit of adherence to eip for Viet Nam War JAMAE MYERS Seton The purpose of taxation is to give our government the money it needs to preserve our freedom. Now we are in a war. Our country is fighting to preserve the freedom of another country, that it may be better equipped to save our own. If the taxes must be raised to help guard the land we love, then, yes, most emphatically yes, the taxes should be raised.

RON SHROPSHIRE Highland Yes, I feel a small taxation increase would be a great attribute to the winning of the Viet Nam war. The possibility of a tax increase on perfumes, cigarettes, and other luxuries would raise the necessary amount to meet the governmental demands in Viet Nam. I am sure the American people will accept this taxation to again obtain world peace. Twenty-two senior girls were nominated by clubs and organizations for homecoming queen. Four of the 22 girls were elected candidates for queen, They are Judy Chiaramonte, Judy Freeman, Jeanie Lynch and Debbie Mickey.

This would be a good act, as it would stop the spread of communism. But I do think that there should be a certain extent to which people of the United States should pay for the Viet Nam war. LOIS 3IAKINEN TF South Yes, if the money will be used to win the war right now. If it takes added money to win, then as taxpayers, we should be willing to spend the money for a victory over the communists. However, if the war will not be stepped up, there is no purpose in putting an additional tax burden on the taxpayers.

I v'SJ PETE KARNISKY Yes, I believe by. raising taxes, two problems could be taken care of. The Viet Nam war costs could be at least partially taken care of by raising taxes. The problem of inflation could also be dealt with by taking money out of citizens' hands and using it for federal expenditures. PHIL LENGYEL Minister By al means IF this is the necessary ingredient to get the job done WELL in Viet Nam.

I don't feel taxes should be raised unnecessarily because of silly excuses or of the Viet Nam war.

More money would get more and better equipment to our soldiers and give them a better chance to end the war and come out of it alive. Our servicemen should have the best they can get. ANTE CALLAHAN Thornton I feel that taxes should be raised to cover the cost of the war. The government of the people entered our country in this war. Thousands of men are fighting and dying, in the war.

They are fighting in the interests of South Viet Nam, and for American and it's people. If our freedom must be retained by blood, I think we can pay more money to cover the cost of the war.
