These boys insulted, spat, beat and kicked my son into the gutter because he was, as they sneerlngly said: 'A Jew.' "Ironically enough my son was coming home from a Boy Scout meeting a meeting at which one of the watchwords, I believe, is: 'A scout is reverent, he is rever ent toward others, he is faithful in his relgious duties and respec's the convictions of others In mat ters of custom and religion.' "May be if he had run away he would have been spared a beat ing. But, being the son of a vet eran, killed in the service of his country, he could do no less than stick It out against unfair odds and strike out against injustice, even as his father did before him. "Perhaps if such incidents were brought to the attention of the public there would be fewer heart breaks, like the one I mention. Maybe then, too, I would know the right answer to give my son when he asks: 'Why did my dad dy have to die?"
