Gentlemen; Years ago, when I attended [redacted] I was high school in [redacted] shocked to learn of secret German "Bund" meetings. The very thought that people of German descent were more loyal to "the Fatherland," than they were to America, was revolting. I was told that [redacted] and others, held these "meetings" in cellars and secret places. And, in retrospect, they were undoubtedly the same kind of people who today will buy a Stihl chain saw, or S.I.P., or a Volkswagon. (To a traitor, it would be of no criteria, that S.I.P. is distributed by the Mafia!) But you would think, that "time" would diminish these "German superior" people! You'd think that the rise and fall of the "Third Reich,"

"gratifying" to "superior types" "people." The withholding of commission money- -the false juggling of books and records - the charging of an item even though the item is withheld, or not delivered - the reservation of a vehicle or merchandise, and then the refusal when it's tendered - the charging of one certain price to one individual but to someone else a different price. And these are the reasons I am forced to work 7 days a week, 14 hrs a day, for only #20.00 (Yes, I know to many in the community, I'm the "village idiot." But these deadheads don't know what consp- -iracy can do to a man!) In a few days, I'll write and tell you how to find "D.B. Cooper." But in the meantime, don't forget
