Also, picket-

let agitators go
without opposing them, they will
be able to build up a greater
following. We must do some-
thing to stop these persons from
spreading hatred. Picketing
would help.

MARION FREEMAN, 3416 Edi-

Definitely not! Picketing would
only serve to bring the agitators
to the attention of the public.
This would
arouse the pub-
lic's curiosity,
and more peo-
ple would turn
out to hear the
speakers in fu-

We should
not ignore these
agitators c n -

that the Jew-

er agencies keep an eye on the
activities of these men. They are
always ready to keep agitators
in check.

I think picketing might serve

a useful purpose but only if it
is done by large, well-known

Jewish organi-
zations such as
Bnai Brith and
the Jewish War
Veterans.
If every
s m a 11 Jewish
group took it
upon itself to
picket, only
confusion
would result.
But if influ-
ential organizations did the pick-
eting, the public would sit up
and take notice. People would
be inclined to side in with the
organization in combating the
agitators.
