Editors,

Recently an anti-war group in my region was refusing to use American flag stamps on their mailings. Pro-war, anti-peace nationalists have a knack for confiscating the flag and turning it into a symbol of belligerence and divisiveness and "I'm-more-American-than-thouness." But the No-War Patriots have to take back their flag. Wave it. Wave bigger ones. Drape themselves and their movement with it. This picture in your "Keeping Track" section illustrates my point.
