Make The Malefactors Pay

Orlando Reporter-Star: "Malefac-
tors OF Great Wealth" was a title civ
en- several years ago by 4 popular
president to those who made money in
great heaps and oOdles with the aid Of
corrupt legislators, and others in po-
Sltlons of power. The phrase is one
OF the most apt ever coined by that
! person who coined it and he has been
more prolific in the coinage of terms
that caught the popular ear, fitted the
tongue of public speakers and filled
out the paragraphs of newspaper
scrlbes than any other of his era.
Let 1t stand as he maefactors

It Is gi2ltng fact that little has beel
