COMPLETE COURSE--The Home Nursing Programmed Course sponsored by the American Red Cross is a relatively new approach to learning the care of the sick and injured. The program is interesting and effective, not only in how to care for the sick and injured at home, but also to assist with the care of people in emergency disaster situations. Participants learn by doing, there fore each class not only consists of work in the student's work manual but demonstrations are given to the students, and the same work is demonstrated by the students to the instructor. A movie is shown each week pertaining to the week's lesson. This is a 12 hour course, consisting of

six weeks. The lessons are Maintaining Health, Recognizing Illness, Body Mechanics, Personal Services for the Bed Patients, Bedmaking,and Medicines and Simple Treatments. Participating in the Courses and pictured above along with Registered Nurse Peggy Saucerman and Red Cross representative Mrs. Margaret Nelson and Betty Foxx, Mary Beams, Hazel Baker, Marjorie Beck, Grace McKeehan, Ina Kemmeling, Biryl Derr, Doris Day, Jeanne Hammond, Donna Eppelheimer, Juanita Austin, Dorothy Edwards, Patty Sutherlin, and Helen Crum.Not Pictured are Carol Shrader and Florence Murphy.

To the editor; It is indeed tragic that Amer. lean missionaries in Vietnam die by terror, but Americans should also realize that the Vietnamese are people and not let their viewpoint obscure the fact that it is more tragic that 24,000 innocent Vietnamese civilians were killed last year. These are United States Army figures which also said there were 100,000 civilian casualties. The greatest share of this earnage has unfortunately been borne by the United States. During the beginning of the recent Tet offensive, one half of the civilian casualties were caused by the Viet Cong and the other half by the United States and South Vietnam. But when the United States began to counterattack, it began to account for almost all of the casualties. (Newsweek, Feb. 19, 1968) This is what happens when we destroy a village to “save it.” Guerrilla warfare theory recognizes the problem of terror. The Guevara wrote in his book “Guerrilla Warfare” that “it is necessary to distinguish clearly between sabotage, a revolutionary and highly effective method of warfare, and terrorism, a measure that is generally ineffective and indiscriminate in its results, since it often makes victims of innocent people...The killing of persons of small importance in never advisable, since it brings on an increase of reprisals, including death.” In Vietnam the Viet Cong have been more selective in their use of terror than have the United States and her allies. A knife used to slit the throat of a village chief is tar more selective than napaiming or bombing an entire village. The use of napalm and bombing is counter-productive because we cannot “win the hearts and minds of the people” by destroying their —Heloise Now my Bible looks nice again. I can hardly believe it, Heloise. This can be done with any well-read and worn book. Dixie * * * DEAR HELOISE: You know these net bags that we get grapes, some fruits and stuff in?

I’ll bet. Heloise

homes. Indiscriminate terror is incompatible with support from the people upon which the Viet Cong rely. Missionaries are not usually victims. This sad easels the exception rather than the rule. However, American use of napalm and bombing is the rule rather than the exception. The American attitude toward the Vietnamese people is sometimes less than desirable. Many Americans care deeply about these people and respect them, but this attitude is not the only one held by Americans. One Army sergeant when asked whether civilians weren’t occasionally killed in the bombings .answered, with a laugh, “What does it matter? They’re all Vietnamese.” (The Village of Ben Sue .Jonathan Schell) This book is an excellent case study of what happens in a “ search and destroy” operation. Ben Sue was bull-dozed over and then bombed for good measure. The people were to be sent to homes in relocation centers that did not exist. Americans should realize the plight of the Vietnamese people who are being destroyed. Our American outlook is too often distorted. As Senator Fulbright said in “ The Arrogance of Power,” “ We see the Viet Cong who cut the throats of village chiefs as savage murderers but American flyers who incinerate unseen women and children with napalm as valiant fighters for freedom; we see Viet Cong defections as the rejection of communism but the much greater number of defections from the Saigon Army as expressions of a simple desire to return to the farm; we see the puritan deci- / pline of life in Hanoi as enslavement but the chaos and corruption of life in Saigon as liberty; we see Ho Chi Minh as a hated tyrant but Nguyen Cao Ky as the defender of freedom; we see the Viet Cong as Hanoi’s puppet and Hanoi as China’s puppet but we see the Saigon government as America’s stalwart ally; and finally, we see China, with no troops in South Vietnam, as the real aggressor while we, with hundreds of thousands of men, are resisting foreign intervention.” Indeed, the American viewpoint is perverted. If it is not changed, the Vietnamese people will be destroyed for a cause in which they do not believe.
