    BE"USE OF THE BRUTAL AND "&RESSIVE WAR
    the United Sbtes government is conducting
    a~ahst V;etnam, the amount of the tederal excise
    
    ........bx, S.~ , has been deduoted from my pay-
    
    ment of this bill. I have opposed this war and
    protested against it in many ways. Now I must
    testity to my opposition by refusing to pay this tax.
    
    The telephone excise tax was raised in April,
    1966, only in order to help psy for the war in
    Vietnam. Paying the tax means helping to pay
    for outright atrocities, for the murder of inno-
    cent women and chi~ren. It msans helping to psy
    for the indiseriminate bombing and napalming
    of defenseless villages. It means helping to fin-
    ance tbe shipping Of American boys half way
    around the world to die defending an unpopular
    totali~rian and corrupt regime.
    
    I am sorry tor any inconvenience my tax refusal
    may cause your office and hope you will under-
    stand that this protest is not directed against the
    telephone company. I hope also that you will
    soon ioin me and the many others who have de-
    cided that it ~s now necessary to oppose the war
    by refusing to psy the telephone excise tax that
    helps finance it.
    
    Sincarely in peace,
