952 Walnut St.

Allentown, PA 18102 August 14, 1979 The Hon. Jimmy Carter The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Washington, D.C.

Dear president Carter:

I imagine you get many letters from thousands of p'eople giving their opinions, so even though you may never read my letter I feel I must write and give my deep concern for what I believe.

For months and months you were figuring out the problems of Sadat and Begin.

On and on it went.

Meeting after meeting.

To myself, I thoucht, Wouldn't it be great if our President and Congress worried about the American people that much?

One night I was watching TV and you and Mrs. Carter emerged from the plane and your meeting overseas with Begin and Sadat.

The door of the plane flew open.

There you stood, arms outstretched, smiling, happy and confident.

So then I thought, Now maybe our President will finally worry about us, the American people.

The next day I picked up the newspaper and, to my astonish-ment, you gave billions and billions to these two men for " peace."

I could not believe my ears.

I thought you were just a nice go-between.

But you gave away billions, not millions.

One question, Sir:

"Whose peace?"

You seem to be a very religious man (that's what I gather from the newspapers) so when people do things I can' t get the connec-tion of religion and what they do.

Let us say, Sir, you were God and you went on the same trip over to Sadat and Begin.

Would you selfishly give:

1. Billions of Americans' hard-earned money without at least asking.

Give less?

Or any?

2. How come you can give away our money so fast to other nations, but your Congress and big business can never lower prices, keep the elderly or do anything for the Americans?
3. What about the other nations you turned your back on--

was that a Godly act?

OPEC nations.

=...

.e

You, President Carter, satisfied a few and to me increased the oil crisis with bad feelings around the world.

That was a self-ish move and we must suffer as well as other nations.

I wonder what God would have done?

This act seemed to me like running into Johnny Carson's home and very excitedly explaining to him:

" Johnny, I figured out all of New York City's problems.

1 just gave them all of your money. "

Then, to add insult to injury, Rosalyn, your wife, went on a tour around the country a day or two after your trip to tell the Americans to conserve energy.

One day when Mrs. Carter was on the Phil Donahue show she

said, Americam should be grateful to have Jimmy, because Jimmy is a nuclee. expert."

What is a nuclear expert, Sir?

1.

Is a nuclear expert the fact that 44,000 school chil-dren in the Midwest were eating radioactive food?

2.

All drinking water and food are polluted.

3. Cancer is on the increase.

~

4. Young children have no future.

5.

The NASA team is fouling up the atmosphere.

I see American people on TV crying and begging not to have nuclear plants built, not to bury or burn waste in the earth, only to face nuclear committees' expressionless faces with computer minds.

Their begging is futile and not heard.

There definitely must be a lot of money being made and I do hope you all live to enjoy it.

But you must remember, Sir, this is the only planet with humans on it and THE EXPERTS ARE FAST RUINING IT.

Many people today consider Hitler insane and maybe he was.

But today, unfortunately, we cannot blame one man for our troubles because it's like a long chain and each man is a link who, together, are far more deadly than Hitler ever was.

But then the experts in this country are going to make what Hitler did a tea party.

What Hitler did was a horror to say the least, and the American people have paid over and over for that mistake.

God said to Adam, "I will give,you this beautiful Land of Eden and I will give you a woman named Eve.

You may have all this beauty, but don't eat the apple.

Well, as the story goes, the apple was eaten.

m

_-.o.-

.m-s-.

o God--if there is one--was kind enough to lend us this planet Earth (the only planet with lif e), for us to enjoy the beauty for our life-span.

We who were born were fortunate.

But many greedy Americans experts have birten the apple and insist on going to outer space, to the moon, Jupiter, Mars, and that, my dear Sir, THAT IS THE APPLE!

You've Experts have ruined the atmosphere of the world.

ruined the beauty of the land, the wa er, - and C e food, but most of all you' re killing the children with nore cancer and they have no future.

The creation of a newborn baby is still the greatest inven-tion and their first day cn earth that beautiful creation must be fed contaminated food.

Some experts in this country are far more insecure than Hitler ever was and I am sure in those days men close to Hitler thought him a great man:

Hitler wanted power and money, just like the men in America want today, and they will leave no stone unturned to reach their senseless heights.

The first selfish act an American did was arrive in America and push the Indians back and those in ena.ge have been pushing pecple ever since then, through the years.

In Washington big business, oil companies, and Senators live in a Happy Bubble and you fly high above us.

You want to grab is all today--you forget about tomorrow.

Where else but America.do experts put a skylab up and can't get it down?

When Three-Mile Island happened, I could not believe my ears how many nuclear plants were built all over America and ' ab road.

That was done very quietly.

You men have ruined all God's beauty and I think as a woman, it's sadistic.

t I think having a President that is for nuclear power so strongly is dangerous.

When a bill finally comes up to cenefit the American peopl--

and THERE ARS FEW--Senators seem to dance around like Rockettes, looking for < loopholes not.to pass it.

Take, for instance, the health plan.

You write up one plan, but Ted Kennedy always has a better plan.

So we get no plan.

You two remind me of the Laurel and Hardy team of Washington.

Mr. Kennedy is very handsome, very rich, and like many does a lot of talking but does nothing.

  • ~

--m,ma

The biggest worry for the Senators in Washington today, and the least beneficial to us, is, "Who is going to be President in 1980?"

Personally, I don't care, but do something.in 1979.

I know ti.at is Senator Jackson's, big worry right now.

Since charity begins at home, try to straighten out Vietnam so the Boat People stay in Vietnam.

Please don't keep asking Congress for more of our money to bring them here.

The Vietnamese who are already here write to the ones left behind and tell them how great they have it.

I, too, would like to be supported by the U.S. with no worries.

I'd like a nice warm climate like California.

If you or the Senators are obligated to someone for the Vietnamese,isend them to Plains, Georgia, and you keep them.

YOU HAVE TOO MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE AND IT S ALL OUR MONEY.

Tell Joan Bae: and all the do-gooder Americans to support them for life and please give us Americans a break.

I don't know if-you are aware of the fact that there are not enough decent jobs for the young now.

You're also making hard feelings in Vietnam and they must be made to take care of their own people.

Let's try minding our own

- business.

Leave people alone.

We're not here to save the world and-I aM sure Vietnam would appreciate that respect.

Every time you're on TV you seem to need another committee and billions for a new committec.

Soon we will have committees watching committees.

Thank God we had Harry Truman, but there will never be an-other.

Today we must pad hands and padding gets like links on a chain and so our great leader gets so consumed in satisfying the links and so the chain gets more deadly to our earth than Hitler ever was.

Please, please don't raise the Social Security age or use that money for some foreign country or some foolish venture.

We working Americans are tired and--if you all don't blow up the world--

I'd like to collect mine.

I think eliminating the Senate completely would be a great idea.

I think the House of Representatives could do both jobs equally well.

To have or not to have electoral voting should have been the people's Choice, not Congress'.

If possible, I'd like this read in Congress.

I'd like to make one comment about the Department of Justice:

I don't think a psychiatrist belongs in Court when there's a murder.

If a man is guilty of killing, whether he is insane or sane,

^"

e 4

o he killed and should be punished, especially in mass murders.

Psychiatrists are great but not in Court.

They immediately free a murderer of responsibility.

Please keep Laetril in this country--let Americans have their choice.

When you have terminal cancer you're going to die anyway.

Be fair.

The AMA should be grateful for all the money and power they have access to and they should now give the chiropractors a break.

There's room for both and a need 'for both.

Let's quit being so selfish.

What would God do?

Voting machines are used one day a year so they have 364 days to tamper with them.

I think our voting system should be changed for a more accurate count.

So, President Carter, I am frightened for the earth 4 and more afraid of the people running the world.

A good motto is, "If you were God today, what decisions would you make?"

I think oil companies and Big Business in America that make good livings, 200 or 300%--should get down on their knces and count their blessings, and start thinking and acting more kindly to the working American.

I saw on the news where the Russians have just exploded their 6th underground nuclear bomb in a year.

Maybe the American experts and the Russians and Chinese are ready to wipe humanity off the earth, but, believe me, I am frightened.

Ralph Nader is one great man.

He's trying hard to save the Earth, but no one listens to him, do they, Mr. President?

Why?

I know Congress gives cur money to idiotic research like the study of monkeys and numerous other money wasting ventures, like "Why do teenagers in America get pregnant?"

I think it's cheaper to send Congress and HEW a book on the birds and the bees.

Ever since 3-Mile Island I have a premonition.

I feel that within 5 years something ugly is going to happen to our earth and it won't 's a near miss.

I feel that otr American experts are going to cause och destruction that it is going to make Hitler's Holacaust look lil a tea party.

Sincerely, Rita Wla elek P.S.

Please don't let the chemical companies shoot the waste into outer space.
