page 8 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- MAILING MUSINGS THOSE CC PUBS: Are still the most hilariouslyfunny things in the mailing, largely because they are not supposed to be funny at all. THE WORKS: Nice newcomes, with some veddy interersting reading all through it. Wollheim's and Lewndos' articles on NFFF especially appreciated by this reviewer...One gathers the impression that the editor of this new mag considers himself frightfully blasé. THE FANTASY AMATEUR; Good to hear from Sam Youd. I wonder, tho, if he quite realizes the difference between English and American Unionism. While both have the same ends in view, it is sad to relate that some American Unions are little better than rackets -- a situation I do not think the English would tolerate......I voted. EPHEMERON: Congratulations on your marriage, Elarcy, and I sincerly wish you and wour wife all of the best of everything. YHOS: Lucky Art, to get stationed so near home...This business of Hunches is interesting, at least. I'm still trying to figure out the "whys" thereof. THanks for the additional data, all of you. POLL KITTEN #1: I voted. On the Sleep Question, however, I would like to amplify. I stated I needed 8 hours, and usually get 6. That is, I usually get 6 unless we have a fangab going on; a poker gamel some of our Army guests; or I have insomnia. Since two or more of those situations usually obtain -- Am I drowsy? FAN TODS: Rapidly becoming one of the best FAPAzines..."Yesterday's 10,000 Years" bring back nostalgic memories of those famous Alphabet wars...In your search for stinkeroos, why go back so far? What about Amazing's "The Sheriff of Thorium Gulch"? Ouch!...I still think an International "Parliament" could be worked out,with the individual countries still maintaining their own right to govern themselves as they see fit. The Natinals would handle those problems purely national; the International those that concerned the peace and security of everybody in the whole world. It is no other country's business if we wish to be wet or dry; have unifrom marriange and divorce laws; elects Officials or have Kings. But our right to make and sell munitions of war to other countries is NOT a national affair, but an international one. We would have a right to run all the airlines within our boundaries that we wished; but to run them in other countries would be an international aggair, (as would it be if our air-lines were convertible into Fortresses) and would need the consent of the other countries involved. But I will readily admit that it is a tremendous problem, and one that requires far more brains for the solving than I possess. BANSHEE: Design for Fanmags has some good points therein. A very throughfully written article....Superfan's Perfect Day was wunnerful, heh, heh! TOWARD TOMORROW: Neat, migthy near. Booful cover, cute inside pic. Yorke's effort --- no comment. "Ethics" article fine and I
