I do not think that your editorial lauding Big Business will appeal to many who, like myself, have lived through the Hoover days when Big Business was running the country and thousands starving. As I recall, the only help that Big Business offered at the time was the advice: to get a tin bill and go out chickens. and pick with the and We witnessed with glee a little bit of apprehension the wrecking of the Indian recreation area shed between Motor Parts and the old San Juan Electric building on Main Street.
