Blackwell Times Record: There is CON
siderable talk among the admirers ~
Dennis FINN n different parts Of Ok
iahoma concerning tho presentation 10
him of one or more FREQ homes Ne
admire the sentiment that prompts 18th
talk. but we vigorously protest against
such action. Dennis Flynn aid oniy hss
duty in the free homes matter. All al
though he did probably what ,sw asfer
men could have done. he did Il without
hope OF reward, other than the gratitude
OF his constituents. and we believe that
the offeT Of any other reward would be
embarrassing and unacceptable TO him.
