It is done prinagdiy in two.ways. First, ‘rroretins a public image of my father as a confused parent who has done all he can to meet the demands for his dauqhter’s kihappers and now waits “3 the time for his daughter's release. In fact, the SLA demands - have not even been approximated and they made it very clear that until the good faith gesture is completed, negotiations for my release will not begin. Second, immediate and complete cooperation with my parents have created a public image of me as a helpless, innocent girl, who was supposed to have been abducted by two terrible blacks, escaped convicts. I am a strong woman and I resent being used in this way. I've been hearing reports about the food program and so far it sounds like you and your advisor have managed to turn it into a real disaster. I hear that only 16,000 people received food in the first two weeks and that most of them, only about $8 worth. It sounds like most of the food is of low quality, no one has received anything of value. Anyway, it certainly didn't (unintelligible word). The SLA wanted this program to be over in one month. They wanted each person to get $70 worth of good food all at once. If you had-just done vhat the SLA wanted for the food program, the month is almost over and I would be ready to get out of here. What you have done is tell people in need to start off this program (unintelligible - word) it's really discouraging thing to the people who need it. Dad, I know that you get most of the food donated for People in _Need and you have put very little money at all into the proxam. Mom, I can‘t believe that you agreed to the “out of my hands" part of the program. I just wish that you could be stronger and
