Dear Friend Cap:
Enclosed is letter from a friend
of mine, which l think is we'll worth
publishing If you so see fit. You can
use my name at the heading and sign
it anonymous.
Yours very truly,
E. B. COOLIDGE.
The letter follows:
Salt Lake City, Utah

Dear Sir and Friend:
Having second class mail relayed
| Is so bothersome l skip it and 80 am
unfamiliar with what is going on up
there, but anyway thought I ought to
at least say hello and how are you.
While l was still getting other than
LIST class mail forwarded, l received
The Voice a few times, fortunately
getting the numbers in which you ex-
changed a little fancy grammar with
the Kentucky Blundered" And you
not only told him plenty but the truth
also, and that really Is all that counts.
I ache to get at some of the rats up
there again but too many were and
are merely band of self-interested
sons-of----- and who that goes for
are all too numerous to mention here.
l went to work here at my trade,
electrician, at the Utah Ordnance
Plant the 18th of November and
haven't lost a day, Sundays, holidays
or what not since I started. Had a
hell of time getting stiffened into
it but now that I'm unlimbered it's a
treat to be in there and earning suffi-
cient to be amply secure from one
week to the next without begging
from anyone.
Whenever this work plays out I'll
but likely that will not be for some
time as there are numerous projects
over the country soon to be needing
men like myself and as long as there
is a yellow Jap alive that anyone
wants to lick l want to do my part
to help lick them.
This plant will be about completed
so far as electrical work is concerned,
early in March, and I'll be on my way
again; just which project I'll tackle
next l don't know yet but there are
lots of them, Houston, Fort Worth,
Kansas City, Wahoo, Neb., Las Vegas
and many to choose from.
Best wishes personally to you and
yours and regards to Doc if you hap
pen to see him; but the rest of 'em,
to hell with them, and If they close
gambling SO tight the joints are all
starved out it will serve them right;
fostered an out for them and worked
like hell to get no place.

Wheelerism, like a noxious weed,
destroys everything with which it
comes in contact. 1t is an ego-phobia
of hatred, feeding on racial and re-
ligious intolerance. It's followers
have shared the platform with enemy
agents and public traitors. They
have repeated and circulated, at pub
lie expense, enemy propaganda at
tempting to spread fear and distrust
among our people. Up to December
7th they were enjoying a common
shelter with honest but deluded iso-
lationists. Then, still determined and
active, they became individual snip
ers. Now they are finding new
shelter under the old King Fish-Ku
Klux banner. Still preaching racial
hatred, intolerance and abuse, they
are attempting to destroy faith in our
constitutional leaders and disrupt the
unity of our allies. Their end and
purpose is to prepare America for a
program Of appeasement. They have
little faith in the ideals of democracy.
The dignity of man as an individual,
possessing a soul which can unite him
In brotherhood and fellowship with
his God, are tenants which are wasted
on their deaf ears. Today these peo-
pie would enslave civilization for
thousands of years that the fires of
their political hatreds and their eco
nomic greed might be satisfied. These
