‘The Circus Is in Town--Again’

I am appalled at your scurrilous editorial (Sept. 5), “The Circus Is in Town--Again,” against one of the most courageous, committed public servants we have. I refer to Harold Ezell, Western District director of the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

Your self-serving, pro-illegal stance is well known but not supported by the public in general. Perhaps you are not a victim of job displacement, crime, your children in overcrowded schools, or seeing any savings you try to accrue from your salary check dissipate in oppressive taxes.

Your power used to threaten the position of Harold Ezell is reprehensible. The only decent thing to do is a public apology to him. Your editorial received top rating for a new low in misusing the power of the press to threaten an individual.
