Kalimpong Where No One Seems To Care

You’d meet those people...ordinary
people like us. There are lots of them.
Then too you’d see places like Burma,
Malaya and Indo-China. You’d see all
those places that are now twisted and torn
by the violence of war. May be then
you would see more. You’d find out
that those same people now fighting and
dying are people like ourselves. People
who lived peacefully in all those places.
People who at one time—just like you
people here in Kalimpong today—never
jealized what Communism really stood
for. No one seemed to care. They
care now.
