The Mail

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

... I did not claim that political support for the Freedom Budget would be gathered by "convincing" in an elitist way local "church groups and political clubs" to support it. I said that at the local level Freedom Budget supporters plan person-to-person work in '68 to counteract the backlash among low-income white voters by showing that racist appeals are used by reactionaries as a cover-up for anti-labor conservative social and economics policies. I also added that a supplementary effort would be made with "religious groups and community political organizations," not "political clubs" like Tammany Hall or the Daley machine. Steven Kelman '70
