H. A. will not finance us a home because we cannot qualify. I am a taxpayer. and built my own modest home myself. and must pay $27 a month to the various merchants who furnished the materials. but what have I done to be thus disowned by my country. and especially the administration which we voted for and so earnestly believed would solve our problems. and now we stand idly by and see others take the jobs that we by every right should have a share of. and at the same time uncounted thousands of migrants from other States are crowding in here. and the (our) Government 1- quick to feed. clothe. and shelter them and give them money and work. To those who have not the wherewithal to buy the barest necessities goes our tax money. and we reflect with grim humor when we read of our Honorable MARTIN DIES attempting to stamp out "Isms." supposedly coming from other countries. when it is here in our own America where communism. fascism. and naziism is being bred. Let him look no further than our own shores.
