but i for found the picture and its caption the writer suggests that things of this nature should be replaced by a police report maybe i am in the minority but after a hard Day at work the last things i want to read about Are the and Auto thefts that she thinks i should be aware last of the writer devoted consider Able space to what appears to be her which is License it sounds like License plates

husband and i Are stationed in we dont have any serious License plate problems and we Arent interested in read ing about any other crimes committed in i doubt if people stationed in Are interested Carbonneau Spain i usually turn to the comics Section of the stars and stripes when i have an urge to be while Reading a letter in a recent i broke into convulsive fits of the writer was complaining of a recent a published she went on to state the photo consuming about 40 Square inches of was she also stated that it was a blatant insult to most readers for the Pic Ture to be i tried repeatedly to let the picture in sult my i was not insulted i was impressed with the con Gressmann wife showing the world that the stereotype of the old lady in a five official explains housing policy Why Doest Usa eur allow a family which has just arrived to move into recently vacated quarters this would eliminate the need for temporary lodging if Usa eur knows a family is command Why int there housing for them Stop command sponsoring for six months and fill in housing and Start a new Patterson Berlin editors note Richard Chapman engineering and housing he replies i appreciate the Opportunity to provide information to the writer concerning government housing for families of the army in we would like to be Able to give a government House to All families As soon As they in most communities this is not we do not have enough family housing units to be Able to do our goal is to see that All married service members have suitable housing for their to do this we first have to rely on Homes located on the Economy because department of the army department of defense and con Gressional guidance All state that the preferred method of housing the Soldier and family is on the any time we request army construction or government leasing we Are required to show that its not possible to obtain Economy units for private this limits the number of on Post and government leased houses that we can All e4 and above who have dependents Are eligible for assign ment to a government managed since we do not have enough houses we must use a system that is fair to our this is Why we establish waiting lists for government controlled houses for those who want to live in government when a family becomes 1 on the waiting list they Are before a newly arrived to the next vacant we believe that although la pay ments May this policy is the fairest for All although immediate assignment to government housing May not be possible our goal is to have sufficient both Economy and on hand by fiscal year 1990 to be

astonished and amazed with the writers ability to keep track of How Many License plates Are out of Regula Tion during a 10month the information was totally irrelevant to the subject of the she complained of the picture con suming about 40 Square inches of news i wasted a couple of minutes calculating that her letter consumed about 608 words Worth of this was Actu ally an essay concerning a rather insignificant subject to most i feel the writer should be Given a weekly column for the sole purpose of keeping everyone informed of the proper Way to mount a License after nobody likes being under informed during a crisis situation such As the one she in she should be Given front Page cover this is much More important than the threat of global warfare or a famine Tom Edwards Germany a recent writer stated that your paper wasted valuable space printing a picture of a congressman wife rather than information More beneficial to the 1  agree think there arc Many More items that could have been used rather than this particular the suggestion is a sound one that should have been acknowledged by a response by the stars and stripes i am challenging you dear either respond with a yes
