LETTERS, Page 6FREEDOM!
"And now East Germany. Who says the domino theory is baloney?"
Amy T. Henasey
Whitehall, Pa.
Communist leaders are at last getting the idea that all people
have an abiding taste for freedom (WORLD, Nov. 20) and that it
is more costly to guard whole populations like prisoners than to
let them choose their own path. As the liberating winds bring
historic changes, the world becomes a safer place.
Doug Wittmer
Topeka
The Iron Curtain is turning into a wisp of gauze.
Phyllis T. Kernick
Pittsburgh
An open Wall does not have to mean the two countries must be
reunited. I would be happy if there were one Germany, but I would
like to see if the East Germans are able to create real socialism
based on true democracy. The Western system is not all gold.
Dominik Finhelde
Berlin
There is one fundamental law that the East German government
and other Communist countries should recognize. As a college
professor once taught me, "Freedom remembered is always the first
step toward freedom regained."
Jon Tunberg
Moline, Ill.
Our efforts to contain Communism have not been in vain, nor
will they ever be. We may have had a difficult time proving to the
rest of the world the morals and values of freedom. But in the long
run, results speak for themselves.
Joey Monteyro
Billerica, Mass.
