Accuses Kent of 'Hate.Monserins'

= Accuses Kent of Hate. .Monserins'
To the Editor Of The Star:
Your columnist Frank Kent Is . nice one to
write about telling "the undiluted truth SO
soon after he twisted the remarks OF Mr.
James A. Farley to suit his own purpose, that
is, his laate-mongering against the greatest
man of our generation, the late President
Roosevelt.
Also, only two weeks ago MIR. Kent wrote
"most polls and tests seem to show that
the Republicans have the popular side Of this
Oabor) controversy" yet earlier in the same
day the Gallup Poll had released the response
to their poll on the Taft-Hartley Law, showing
the following:
DisapproVe
And, believe it or not, the Republicans inter-
rogated showed only 53% approving the law.
What poll did Mr.. Kent use? challenge him
to name recognized unbiased poll to back up
his statements!
What "sappish big businessmen" were
taken in by Elliott Roosevelt and his late
father? I challenge him to name them, with
facts to back up his statements.
Mr. Kent sinks to new low when he cites
the statements of one of the most notorious
hate-mongers in America, and respectfully
submit that it is time to call a halt on hate
mongering in this Nation, and the distortions,
falsehoods and msinformation Of hate
mongers. FIRM

Oh, SO the lights popped on and off.
The engineer put on a large size

signaled the studio actors to start.
In a little while he had the show

BY JOYCE SCOTT
For years l have dreamed of
being a reporter. But little did
! think I would make my en-
trance into the fourth estate via
radio. Yesterday afternoon 1
decided to take a trip to station
WMFD, or the Castle Hayne road,
to satisfy my curiosity as to just
how radio works. Well, you can
imagine my surprise, when arriv-
ing al the station, l found that it
was operating on what Harold
Jones, the engineer On dhty, de-
scribed as auxiliary power.
Auxiliary power? What in the
world DO you mean? Why, l
thought the radio was like a tele-
phone All, me, the things a gal
can learn in this world of ours.
It seems as though the radio is
