It marked the passage of five empty years since the assas- slnatlon of John Lennon. That same night Variety Clubs of America honored Ronnie Reagan with a televiston spe, cial, and Charlton Heston placed him in the same league as Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt. (Personally, I think Larry, Curley and Moe would have been more ap- propriate company.) And, ChrIstmas Is fast approach- mg. Don't get me wrong. I love Christmas. My brother has all his presents wrapped, and an electric candelabra flashes red and green in his room continously. My father brought home the worst tree that I have ever seen (he has since bought another), but he silenced my complaints by reminding me about the time I brought home the tree with the huge baId-spot. The oven Is ready to go, and my moth- er is eagerly preparing her Christmas cookie schedule. Yet, as I was sitting In my house with heat and roof that doesn't leak (except for the breezeway In torrential rains) I watched "60 MInutes" profl· Ie a town In Mississippi that practices segregation actively and I was appalled at the abo ject poverty that exists. Mo- rely Safer walked Into a house where a black woman lived with her ten (yes, TEN) children, and there was no toilet, the plumbing was a pipe In the floor and there were roaches crawling all over the walls and food. Immediately after that I watched President and Mrs. Reagan, dressed to the nines, • enjoy fine wine and food while they were surrounded and saluted by other "Beauti- ful People:' "God· Bless America" was played by the orchestra, and Reagan claim- ed that "God had shed his grace on Amerfca." r wished that someone would relay that fact to the woman in Mississippi. and I wondered what kind of Christmas she would have in comparison to Reagan. . The disparity between the rich and the poor in this coun- try becomes painfully and blatantly clear -durmg the holidays. Three years ago, in the midst of the Christmas shopping season. I got In line behind a woman at the gro- cery store whom the season's good cheer had Ignored. In her cart were 22 cans of cat- food and two boxes of crack- ers, which she paid for with food stamps. Judging from her dress. which was tatter- ed, and her cleanliness. which was lacking, I doubt that she was thinking of her pets. In reality, that was probably her week's .diet, and that, juxta- posed with a retail Christmas atmosphere. was unforgetta- ble. I shudder to think where she is today. I hope that everyone who has enough to eat and a place to sleep this Christmas w1ll take a few minutes to remem- ber those people who have to eat Christmas dinner at the .missions and sleep In the street. To them, "Auld Lang Syne" means finding a warmer place to escape the freezing temperatures of a midwestern winter. I would also urge people. While they are buying their gifts, to give a dollar to the members of the charitable or- ganizations that stand In the cold outside department stores. And. as they do, I hope they think of the man In Washington who has - done nothing to help these people, .and who has. in fact. helped them increase their ranks . He'll be eating gourmet food off fine china in sunny warm California - he's in a great position to say Ihat God's grace has been shed on America. Others are not so lucky, and they're cold and hungry. Presley says "thanks" To the Editor: I'd like to extend a thank- you to Jim Neibaur for his kind review of my book "Elvis and Me/' His evalua- tion of what I was trying to accomplish gives me a great satisfaction that it did come across and that four years of writing was well worth it. Again, my best to you. Sincerely, Priscilla Presley RANGEn "" \ l ,. "THE UN CELEBRATION OF ITS AGREEMENT.
