LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.Kudos to Jasper I wish to express my gratitude to THE NEW AMERICAN for having such a fine staff of writers. Writers whom we can depend upon for their accuracy. With truth as our only weapon, it is wonderful to have it in the form of THE NEW AMERICAN. My most sincere appreciation for William F. Jasper. The article "High and Dry in the Klamath Basin The Klamath Basin is the region in the U.S. states of Oregon and California drained by the Klamath River. It contains most of Klamath County and parts of Lake and Jackson Counties in Oregon, and parts of Del Norte, Humboldt, Modoc, Siskiyou, and Trinity Counties in California. " (September 10th issue) is greatly appreciated by many, and will provide many with solid information. It was my great honor to meet William Jasper William Jasper (c. 1750 – October 9, 1779) was a noted American soldier in the Revolutionary War. He was a sergeant in the 2nd South Carolina Regiment. Jasper first distinguished himself in the defense of Fort Moultrie on June 28, 1776. at Klamath. He did not just compile an article and then leave town. He spent lots of time and energy speaking with many, many people, after the article was completed. Bill brought a large box of outdated issues of THE NEW AMERICAN and The John Birch Society John Birch Society, ultraconservative, anti-Communist organization in the United States. It was founded in Dec., 1958, by manufacturer Robert Welch and named after John Birch, an American intelligence officer killed by Communists in China (Aug., 1945). Bulletin for distribution. He also provided many copies of his just-finished article on the Klamath Basin. People were very pleased to receive these copies. I joined him in handing out all but a very few bulletins that afternoon. The people at the Klamath rally were eager to receive the articles, magazines, and bulletins. It presented a wonderful opportunity to tell people about the magazine and its reliability and about the John Birch Society. Bill Jasper's writing and his work among the people were quite inspirational. He is indeed, in my book, a "New American" hero.

[1] Selma is located at (42.279167, -123. Required Reading Thank you so much for your recently completed "Our Legacy of Liberty" series. You have rendered an invaluable service in providing these fundamental yet essential history lessons in America's heritage of freedom. It is sadly true that freedom is lost not so much from overt external force as from our taking it for granted, being ignorant of its foundations, and so easily forgetting the risks and high cost our Founding Fathers paid in securing it, thus enabling us to reap its untold benefits and blessings. As Thomas Jefferson once wisely observed: "If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be." That statement couldn't be more true if it were uttered today. This important series of articles should be required reading for all high school and college students enrolled in American history, government, and/or civic classes. Compilation of these articles into a single volume would make an excellent textbook. WAYNE T.

America's ruling class has long been at war with our Creator and with the Natural Law which is His creation. The U.S. Supreme Court led the way many years ago with its decision outlawing prayer in the public schools. Alas, this was not followed by any public outcry. Senator Dirksen was the only public figure to denounce it, but he received no support from the churches. A series of vicious decisions followed. Nude dancing was held to be a constitutionally protected exercise of free speech. Sexual activity was held to be protected by a new constitutional right of privacy. Finally, it was held in 1973 that a woman has a constitutionally protected right to kill the child within her womb.

They need cheap labor, and they need to mask the disastrous results of their anti-life policies. Your other articles all point in the same direction. Our government would not lie to us or steal from us if the rulers believed in God, nor would they permit the killing of innocent children if they believed in God, now and in eternity. JUAN J.
