Two letters discuss public safety and national policy. The Reverend John L. Cowart calls for city ordinances to cap train speeds to 20 mph to avoid disaster similar to Crescent City. Joe Ramsey from Alpine defends Vietnam War policy, criticizes media, and argues for sustained U.S. involvement with a focus on national security and freedom of speech.
