    It's time to get on the horn and start the wheels of politics
rolling.

    Call Congressman EDWARD P. BOLAND, (202) 225-5601.  He is Chairman
of the House Appropriations committee, which makes him rather
influential.  Ask him to support FULL FUNDING FOR A PERMANENTLY MANNED
SPACE STATION.

    We have until the end of business hours on Tuesday, May 8 to get
our voices in.  CALL NOW.  If it is after Tuesday, call him anyway.
ANY statement of support will help.

    I called his office at 10:40 EDT this morning, and they had already
logged 50 calls.  This is what is known, in political circles, as a
groundswell, and it will not be ignored IF WE KEEP IT UP.

    Phone today, it will make the future a much better place to live in.

    That's CONGRESSMAN EDWARD P. BOLAND  (202) 225-5601.  Do it.
