No sorrowing family will ever be deprived of service because of financial circumstances." Four generations have found that at Backs, Troutman & Kaulbaum costs no more to have the finest.

Releasing results of the survey is Congressman Craig Hosmer of California. The survey follows: The following public opinions are based on a poll taken by mail. Approximately 24,000 questionnaires were mailed and over 8,000 returned, a response rate of approximately one-third. These are preliminary tabulations, but final results are expected to vary only slightly. In releasing these results, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the many thousands of thoughtful citizens who conscientiously cooperated in this effort. The area polled was California's 18th Congressional District which I have the honor to postal deficit. In our poll 68 percent of the people asked this question responded "Yes"; only 27 percent "No"; and 5 percent "don't know." However, there was almost universally some very strong reservations. In return the people want the Post Office Department run efficiently and demand higher rates for other than first-class mail, particularly magazines which they appear to regard as "getting away with murder" by paying almost "giveaway" postal rates. The same attitude prevails, possibly even more strongly, as regards to junk mail advertising matter, which is far less popular than ants at a picnic. FEDERAL AID TO EDUCATION Of the over 8,000 persons answering the questionnaire, just about half favored Federal aid for school construction and just less than half wanted no Federal aid at all. Only 28 percent favored Federal aid for work, to say if necessary. United States are thorow cause alms passed unministration swers have the question do for you.

ANAHEIM FEDERAL AID TO EDUCATION Of the over 8,000 persons answering the questionnaire, just about half favored Federal aid for school construction and just less than half wanted no Federal aid at all. Only 28 percent favored Federal aid for teachers' salaries; 58 percent were opposed on the salary issue; while 14 percent expressed no opinion. CUBA, COMMUNISM AND COLD WAR Over half the people of the United States favor sending U.S. Armed Forces right now to Cuba to get rid of Castro and communism. Fifty-seven percent of the persons asked this question gave a firm "Yes" in reply; 34 percent said "No," and 9 percent were undecided. So many hundreds of respondents volunteered comments relating to this subject that they deserve summation: It is, There is a definite and decided belief among the American people that the United States must properly police the Western Hemisphere. The people of the country appear to be far ahead of the Kennedy administration in their inherent belief that positive U. S. action is necessary not only in the Americas, but worldwide, to halt the flow of communism. In this poll opinion was practically unanimous over 90 percent on these points: First, the United States is in a nonmilitary war with international communism which could result in total victory for either side without firing a shot. In metropolitan areas, our program free of antagonists as illicit lowing questions. Should the port program tirely? Resume no, 23 percent.

Rusk and U.S. negotiator at the Geneva test ban talks, Arthur H. Dean. Both have been receiving large quantities of mail from "bleeding-heart" sources and "front groups" which may have got them out of tune with these true feelings of the American people they are supposed to represent in international negotiations. However, Americans see some value in keeping the talks going so long as the self-imposed U.S. moratorium on nuclear testing, declared in 1958 by then President Eisenhower, is lifted promptly. Only three in five would call off the talks altogether, while one-third believe they should continue. Seven percent voiced no opinion. RED CHINA POLICY On the proposition of admitting Red China to the United Nations, our poll showed: For, 10 percent; against, 85 percent; don't know, 5 percent. A slightly easier attitude was expressed on U.S. diplomatic recognition of Red China: For, 18 percent; against 74 percent; don't know, 8 percent. POSTAL RATES Over two-thirds of American letter-writers are willing to pay 5 cents instead of 4 cents to send their mail to help end the worldwide, to halt the flow of communism. In this poll opinion was practically unanimous over 90 percent on these points: First, the United States is in a nonmilitary war with international communism which could result in total victory for either side without firing a shot. Second, Americans collectively, through their government, do not grasp that we are actually fighting such a war. Third, our Government has not yet properly organized itself to fight it effectively. Fourth, we are not putting enough skill and effort into the cold war. Fifth, we are losing it. Over two-thirds believe winning is going to take higher taxes and foregoing many desirable domestic programs to keep communism from taking over the world and they are impatient to get on with the job. The demand is clear for U.S. leaders to stop pussyfooting and to back up bold speeches with bold actions. The American mood of frustration with the Eisenhower administration for not coming to grips with these basic problems is rapidly being transferred to the Kennedy administration. When people our poll if they "a good idea heard of Trip," 55 percent 41 percent were in Then asked come of the t U.S. and Policy In our poll 68 the people asked this responded "Yes"; only "No"; and 5 percent w.

GENERAL AID EDUCATION Over 8,000 persons the questionnaire, half favored Federal construction and half wanted no at all. Only 28 perFederal aid for The people are willing to work, to sacrifice, and to fight, if necessary, to preserve the United States of America. They are thoroughly discouraged because almost 6 months have passed under the Kennedy administration and no solid answers have yet been given to the question: "What can you do for your country?" LABOR AND BUSINESS Labor unions have earned a very poor public image and business a good one, according to poll results on the following two questions: In general, do you feel there are enough laws restraining business? Results: yes, 79 percent; no, 16 percent; do not know, 5 percent. In general, do you feel there are enough laws restraining labor unions? Results: yes, 13 percent; no, 83 percent; do not know, 4 percent.

FARMERS In metropolitan, nonfarm areas, our poll shows a high degree of antagonism to farm subsidies as illustrated by the following questions and answers: Should the farm price support program be scraped entirely? Results: yes, 69 percent; no, 23 percent; do not know, 8 percent. MEDICAL CARE FOR THE AGED AND DIVIDEND WITHHOLDING TAX A rather interesting contrast in opinions on medical care for the aged and the dividend withholding tax proposal was revealed in our poll by the following two questions: Should there be a withholding tax on corporate dividends and savings account interest? Results: Yes, 19 percent; no, 67 percent; August party for multiple sclerosis patients, beside the new therapeutic pool at the Orange County Crippled Children and Adults Rehabilitation Center, Orange.

Local Clubs Back Anti-Red School Session The Union Oil Company today confirmed executive and employee participation in the Southern California School of Anti-Communism to be held in the Los Angeles Sports Arena, beginning August 28 through September 1, sponsored by the Christian Anti-Communism Crusade. Dr. Terrell Root, Newport Beach, a co-chairman of the citizens committee coordinating Orange County attendance at the anti-Red seminar, reports that Union Oil officials purchased large blocks of tickets for their employees. Dr. Root revealed that the Automobile Dealers of Orange County have today officially endorsed the Southern California School of Anti-Communism and are encouraging local attendance. The co-chairman also stated that the Fullerton Rotary and Klwanis Clubs of Anaheim and Fullerton have each announced their endorsement and are now reserving tickets for their members and families. "Our ticket chairman was guaranteed a minimum attendance of 100 Union Oil employees for each of the five days." Root said. "They have reserved 700 one-day tickets, 25 full-session tickets, and indicated that with the growing interest they may need even more." Purpose of the short-term seminar, under the direction of Dr. Fred Schwarz, is public appraisal of the tactics and goals of the Red Conspiracy, in the U.S.A., Dr. Schwarz and his authoritative staff believe that "Americans can defend themselves successfully from Communism only when they learn to recognize the methods of Red subversion." Information and tickets can be obtained by calling TR 1-7600 or MI 6-8888 (beach).

SUMMITRY and KENNEDY'S SPECIAL RECOMMENDA-TIONS TO CONGRESS President Kennedy's Vienna trip to meet Krushchev was a public relations bust, his efforts to glamorize summit flopped in a big way and more than half of his recommendations in a special message to Congress before he left for Europe fell on deaf public ears according to our findings. When people were asked in our poll if they thought it was "a good idea" when they first heard of President Kennedy's trip, 55 percent answered "no," 41 percent "yes," and 4 percent were in doubt. Then asked about the outcome of the trip "now that the tickets for their employees. Dr. Root revealed that the Automobile Dealers of Orange County have today officially endorsed the Southern California School of Anti-Communism and are encouraging local at during the next year. Two to one against setting up an enlarged disarmament administration. Three to two against giving Mr. Kennedy a $250-million contingency fund for additional foreign aid spending. Mr. Kennedy had a clear win, with almost everybody behind him, in his call to beef up Army and Marine Corps strength to meet brush fire wars. Only about 10 percent of persons polled were against this proposition. After reading thousands of comments penned and penciled on these questionnaires by Americans obviously and patriotically concerned with the safety and welfare of their country I have come to this conclusion: The American people instinctively know that strength, not frills, is the way to stop the Kremlin menace; they are right, and they expect their government to start acting accordingly.
