dealership here in Cheyenne to have a door
repaired. Several weeks earlier, I had broken an air-

asked if the air-conditioner switch had come

replaced. The charges for replacing the air-
were $149.55. Inall fairness, the price of

Letter to the Editor:
The Equal Rights Amendment does not mean 'equal pay
for equal work'. That aspect has already been covered by the
Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972 and equal credit
opportunities for women are covered by the Equal Credit
Opportunity Act of 1974.
So what will the Equal Rights Amendment do? It will
abolish a woman's right to child support and alimony. It will
allow homosexual marriages and probably child adoption by
these people. It will make your daughters subject to the draft.
It will, of course, do even more damage than this.
Happy and well-adjusted women believe in laws which
protect the family. Why should we lower ourselves to 'equal
rights' when we already have the status of 'special
priviledge'?
Dedicated women libbers are waging a total assault on the
family, on marriage and on children. They are anti-family,
anti-children and pro-abortion. Many of them reject marriage
and motherhood. 'l?mt's their priviledge, but let's not allow
them to get away with pretending to speak for the rest of us.
Let's not permit this minority to degrade the role that most
women prefer.
Sen. Neal Stafford and Pep. Pen Micheli are sponsoring
bills to Rescind the ERA in Wyoming. Let your voice be
heard. Contact the Senators and Representatives from your
county, (Capitol Building, Cheyenne} and request that they
vote to Rescind the Equal Rights Amendment. Time is short,
so do it today!
