If the Oill-Du^ont tactics continue the non who are doing so much will stop in disgust. The notoroads to Sen Diego and the convention plans are in n healthy condition. If a second end bigger motorcade can now go across the OS? invaluable fraternity and cooperation will result. Sincerely, ’-H: :B Harral Ayres, Managing Hi rotor
