SAB S REIDI sit HERE'S A MAN IN FLATBUSH who sende me & couple of hard ones He writes: WURRA WURRA: 4 1 see that some would-be humorist hae offered @ reward for the re covery of the Gaynor boom for the Prestdeney. Now I don't see any humor in that. I think it wae @ tragedy that the Mayor didn’t get the nomination, and I'd Uke you te give the reason for not placing bis name properly before the convention, se that he could show hie reel strength instead of getting one vote. Algo, why 40 you make éun of Flatbush? I don't think we are funny. We're dead earnest. Thanking you in advange, I am, yours for intelll- gence. JOSEPH J. FERRIS, Beveriy Road, Piatbus!

So wasn't it to be ’ expected that the boom would die? And doeen't it look natural? | ‘Ae to your megond query, why do I makg fun of Fiatbush? I have to say T don't, T take Flatbush. very seriounly.
