DOHERTY Editor, The Citizen: , This is the first-time, 1 have ter, but this one, which appeared “A Few Remarks”, made so many inaccurate statements that I am not surprised about why the writ- er was ashamed to sign his name i. He calls himself a distin- terested resident, but if this be true why did he write this let- ter? 2. He describes himself as one who is tired of reading about the matter. If this be true may I ask why he does not stop these articles, comments, and let- ters about the liquor ordinances? 3. He goes on to say, “I have a few remarks to make’ ’and then proceeds to write almost an en tire column. 4. He then refers to Rev. Doh erty. Therefore I beg to remind PEOPLE’S FORUM ever replied to’an anonymous Ie+ | in your paper under the caption, ! reading | but I have not seen much sign of such repentance by the majoriiy of the city commission. ‘When these amateur politicians started this invasion of the churches we served notice on them that if they came across ‘the 300-foot line they would’ have & real fight on their hands; so ‘this is it.
