  • EDITORIAL COMMENT Editorials are from the Editor's desk unless otherwise indicated by the writer's initials. Opinions expressed by the columnists do not necessarily reflect those of the administration, the newsj-aper staff, or toe student body. Nixon's Address... Old Hat We viewed President Nixon's address to the nation last night with anticipation and interest, By the long advance notice of the speech, we felt as did many others, that some far-reaching announcement would be made. This, however, was not the case. His address revealed no new change in U. S. commitment in Southeast Asia. In essence, Nixon's speech was a low-keyed plea for support and unity. We could not help but reminisce (hiring the address. Throughout his campaign, Nixon often spoke about a secret plan to end the war. He promised at that time to settle for nothing less than a just and honorable peace. Since assuming office, under the pressures of the war, it appears that his means of obtaining this just and honorable peace have shifted if not collapsed. Thus, Nixon becomes the fourth American president to be engulfed in the political quagmire of Vietnam both at home and abroad. The Vietnam War is the longest conflict in which this country has ever been engaged. No end is in sight. The American people daily grow more and more impatient with the war. Even so any thinking citizen would have to agree with the President's broad sweeping statements about the desirability of peace. Even in a previously secret letter to late President Ho Chi Mien, Nixon only states the obvious that peace is a desirable end. We are all aware of this. The country does not need statements of this nature. We need, rather, more positive moves toward obtaining that desirable peace. Many feel as though some definite announcements on U. S. policy will be forthcoming, probably before the December 15 deadline for the removal of 60,000 troops. At one point Mr. Nixon turned his address toward the concerned youth of our country. He stated he respected the idealism of this group and reiterated his former statements that U. S. foreign policy would not be dicated from the streets of our country. Mr. Nixon seems to lose sight of the fact that the organization toward which these statements are made, the Moratorium movement, has been the most orderly, most peaceful, and most widely supported demonstration of discontent this nation has undergone. The concerned youth of this country are not rioting in streets to end the Vietnam War but are exercising their constitutional rights to petition and make their voice heard by the nation's leaders. He also seems to ignore the fact that the minory he speaks of as being opposed to the war is only a few percentage points below being the majority. We hope Mr. Nixon will consider there important facts in his future decisions. The President, as his policies seem to show, is seeking a way out of our involvement. He also ■ seems to be placing upmost importance on policies which would prevent future Vietnams. We feel this is an admirable and proper direction toward which to move our country. Although last night's address did not present striking new avenues, we> do feel it displayed the President's attitudes more convincingly than has been done in the past. We continue to look for more powerful announcements from the White House. We join with young people across the United States in the hope that they will be made surely and quickly to bring an end to this horrid conflict, "The world cannot continue to wage war like physical giants and to seek peace like intellectual pygmies."

Letters To The Editor Dear Editor: The war in Vietnam lias caused a great dual of human suffering. Men of good will may differ in their understanding of the root causes of this war or dispute the course that American foreign policy should follow, but there can be no disagreement on the plight of the refugees and other war victims in Vietnam. Medical missionaries of many different denominations are working in Vietnam, feeding the hungry, treating the wounded, and attempting toheal the sick. By making a contribution to their efforts, each of us at Western Carolina University could in some small way share in their ministry of compassion and concern for victims of war everywhere. In the hope that a large number of individuals and campus organizations would be willing to collect money for this work between the present day and the Thanksgiving recess, I would be glad to supply the names and addresses of medical missionaries and their spon- soring boards to anyone interested in this project. Sincerely, Richard J. McMaster Assistant Professor Dear Editor: Thank you so much for the kind remarks you made at the Alumni business meeting'last Saturday night. I especially commend you for the editorial that appeared in the newspaper. I personally think that the Homecoming, 1969. was the finest that I have ever attended It was a real joy to appear on the campus, and, of course, the football victory was the highlight of the occasion, How= ever, I noticed certain other things on the campus that were in some respects, and I would The Western Carolinian EDITOR-IN-CHIEF BUSINESS MANAGER DAVID ROCK WHITTEN FRED GLENN CAUSBY MANAGING EDITOR W.

I have had the occasion to visit on several college and university cam- puses this fall, and I must say that the appearance and attitude of the students at Western Caro- lina University excelled that of all the other campuses i have appeared upon. During the course of the day I had occasion to engage in casual conversation with many of the students. Without exception, I found these students to be warm and cordial, with a friendly and courteous attitude toward the Alumni. This is a bit of an unusual atmosphere to find on a college campus in this day and time. It was most pleasing to me and I think the student body is to be commended. Second, the general atmosphere of sportsmanship that permeated the stadium during the ball game was very noticeable and pleasing. The students conducted themselves with great poise and dignity. Here again, this is a bit of deviation from the norm that exists on many of our campuses in this State today. Lastly, I noticed a certain esprit de corps that seemed to be present throughout the student body. This, of course, is that intangible factor that is hard to define with particularity, but is something that one can usually sense upon making an appearance at a college or university campus. If my judgment is correct, the students at Western Carolina University seem to show a sense of purpose that is delightfully healthy and wholesome. Please forgive me for the length of this letter, but it is simply an attempt to convey to you what I observed on the campus during, this Homecoming visit, and what I think is a tribute to toe students of the University. With kindest personal regards. Sincerely yours, C. Edwin Allman NOTE: Mr. C. Edwin Allman, of Winston-Salem, served during the past year as president of the WCU Alumni Association.
