Bishop VIM. NJ. Brown. the former

Dear Sir
There recently came to my attention
a book bearing the title "CC.nmunisln
and Christianism," written by William
Montgomery Brown, and published by
your company.
The book is the most I'm American
piece of literature that has ever come
to my attention, and | am TODAY an.
pealing to the Acknowledgement of the
united States to stop its publication.
| want to appeal to you to stop the
publication of this book without making
1t necessary for the forces in This
country which propose to protect the
nation, to expose your company and YOU
and the author of the book. You NAV
as well realize that such books as the
one to which | refer cannot be printed
and distributed in this country, and Won
may as well direct the energies of YOUR
company to something constructive. The
intelligence of William Montgomery
Brown is too good to be used in de.
structive manner.
Yours very truly,

Manager.
