Editor World: You insist through your edl-
lal columns that "classes" do not exist In the
United states. Again and again you have writ
ten editorials which are for the express pur-

political personality and not economic welfare.
Your editorials have an immediate value for
foreigners other than those who arc Interested

Your editorial of August 80 entitled "A Lit

nary good common sense and human lnten-
tions. This penntess Nazarene, who lived
nineteen hundred years ago, and the acknowl-
edged saviour Of mankind, through his word
