I had hoped we as caring human beings had advanced beyond such bigotry. To dis guise it in a hometown history paper is even worse. I can only hope that the local people feel as 1 do by asking that this newspaper and its edi tor be stopped before our/their children read such trash. "Freedom of the press" is not meant to be used in this unfeel ing, hateful way. 1 don't know if this will be welcomed in your newspaper, but I just had to write and enlist my "Right to Freedom of Speech".
