* Regarding “President Picks Up Where ‘The Jungle’ Author Sinclair Left Off in 1906,” July 7:
For the record, Upton Sinclair did not run for governor of California “on the ticket of his socialist End Poverty in California (EPIC) Party in 1934.” He registered as a Democrat, won the Democratic primary, and ran as a Democrat. EPIC was his program for economic recovery, not a socialist political party.
