              COMMENTARY
The war has gone on long enough
held sacred for years, now
to be closer to reality than at any
ttme since the war began. A massive march on San Francisco and
Washington, D.C. will indicate to
Nixon and his henchmen In the
Pentagon that the war has gone
on long enough, and that the people
will take lt no longer.
Nixon, whose Idea of winding
down the war ts to Invade every
country tn Southeast Asia, must
be shown that he no longer has
the support of the people of this
country in this war. Although he
has been told over and over that
the nation Is sick of the fighting
and wants out, he refuses toobey
the mandate of the people who
elected htm, and continues In-
' stead In supporting the corrupt
regime of Thleu and Ky for many
The People's Peace Treaty,
which can be found on this page,
ts one way you can Indicate your
opposition to the war, and your
support for those who will be
marching on April 24. Your signature on the treaty, added to the
thousands of others who have already Indicated their support for
the treaty, will provide another
nail ln Nixon's war coffin.

Government 'top-heavy'
, We have allowed our government In America to become top-
heavy, both through a burgeoning
bureaucracy and a continuous
Involvement In foreign wars that
bear no rational relationship to
our true self-interest. We have
created authoritarian and militaristic agencies to protect the
government from those who
strongly disfavor those poitcie*.
The older gener;
ustful  c
their seemingly eccentric II
styles and values. Yet what, the
young are really telling the old
is that the value of creative
individualism which early Amer
icans possessed has somehow
been lost by the babbitry and materialism  of their descendents.
In this context, the "greening
of A merlca. * the social phenomenon so well described by Charles
Reich, represents In fact a return to an earlier and meaningful
Americanism, ln which Individuals were free to *do their own
thing* for themselves and their
families.
Early Americans were acutely
aware of the very principle upon
which the young people today are
basing their actions: that no government or system has a right
to control the lives or Individual
destinies of the people within It.

(Continued from Page 2)
The young people are telling
their parents that America Is itself In danger of following the
path of totalitarianism, and that
they will not allow it to become
another Nazi Germany, Soviet
Russia, or Communist China,
where tens of millions of people
were systematically exterminated or" forced Into communes.
Despite their good Intentions,
the older generation and the present power structure has mistakenly seen-fit to plan the suppression of minority and revolutionary rebellions, bringing about the
very totalitarianism they think
they oppose. And they have exhausted considerable resources
and lives in fighting revolutionary
movements ln other parts of the
No one wants to follow Jerry
Rubin's command to 'kill your
parents.' What all of us want Is
to sit down and discuss our differences with our parents, and to
help each other adjust to one another's views, Just as we need to
negotiate and settle our differences  wllh  the North Viet-Na-
What is universally needed Is
not a negation, but a reaffirmation of the American revolution
and the principles of'life; liberty
and tbe pursuit of happiness* tor
which lt stood.
