YIPL Number 9 - March-April '72We've got something rather special this month (or months) and you can find it inside. This article ahs, to our knowlege never been published with details for use. It is so good, that it is not worth our getting hassled for printing it if you readers don't suporrt our action by reprinting it and giving it out. Here's how to do this and make it effective; Mail it to people and places far away from YOU as well as in your own community. Have a stock of Xeroxed copies so when you pick up yippies hitching you can lay them onto it, and they will then spread the news . Papers should print it, and radio station people should tell listeners to write to them for a copy. In the next letter you write to anyone you know, include a copy of this article. We are really pushing this for several reasons, but mostly because it can seriously affect Ma Bells profits and therefore policy if it goes into widespread use, & it should. It is wrong to assume that they can easily change the system and
render the device ineffective, because it would take much time
wherever they did it, people, it would have to be done by people
, who need the work anyway- Build them and sell them, but not for
more than five bucks. The parts are cheap, maybe two dollars. READ THISThe Boston Peoples Yellow Pages is $1 and well worth it. Write to dem at 351 Broadway, Cambridge,Ma. 02139. Or write to People Yellow Pages at Emmaus House, 241 E. 116 St.,NY,NY 10029. It's free but they need contributions to stay alive so help them out, OK? While you're doing that, you'll want to have a PYP in your own community if you don't already. Write to the above about forming one, or just do it, or if one is forming, help. But make sure to publicise YIPL and some of our articles in it, and write us if you need publicity or our back issues. There are so many radio stations and papers in your community that need feature articles on things like YIPL that it isn't funny. Go to these places and tell them you'll prepare a show on phone politics and technology. If you receive this, you are hereby authorized to represent YIPL in your community and should start doing so immediately. Its absolutely legal, but that shouldn't stop you. Dear YIP Line people,We urge you to organize with us a massive telephone campaign in your home community aimed at reaching as many households and businesses as possible. We suggest using the following method to once again make the war a public issue. our major method will be a phone calling campaign consisting simply of the following: "Hello, I called to ask you to think about whether Nixon lied about ending the war. Thank you." We believe that putting the message in the form of a non-rhetorical question is both more thought provoking and less alienating. This campaign will include newpaper ads and media involvement carrying the simple message: That Nixon lied about ending the war. Please join us.
