...crime stories, it exposes such eccentrics as the colonel who was able to commit an enlisted man to a psychiatric ward because the man had defended his friends at courtsmartial. Or the officers who punished two G.I.s by tying them together and leading them around like dogs on a leash. Not to mention former Major General Edwin Walker, who was discovered by the Weekly back in 1961 to be indoctrinating his troops with John Birch Society propaganda...
While most of the queries deal with issues of national significance, some are inconsequential ("Do you favor a leash law for dogs?"), frivolous ("Do you like long hair on boys?") or merely vague ("Have we failed our founding fathers?").

A Soviet field marshal commands East Germany's 200,000-man army, its 600-plane air force and its 200-ship navy. The Soviet ambassador frequently sits in on meetings of Ulbricht's Politburo. More than 72% of East Germany...
...televiewers know, is an anonymous little giggle merchant who looks like a slight defect in the wallpaper pattern and makes funnies that are so far out they sink before the slow boats get there. One day, for instance, he appeared in public leading his pet ant on a leash. On other occasions he wondered evilly if Memorial Day poppies contain opium, tsked sympathetically about a resolutely modern painter who cut off his ear with an electric razor, revealed regretfully that he once owned a silver mine but it tarnished...
