2 I am telling you all this so that you may know that I am not a continuous critic of your school. But I must add that unless you take some positive action in this card burning case, you will loose your claim to the support of many solid citizens in this state. Your dean has answered in the paper at least that the policy of the University is to "wait and see." You surely have enough evidence to suspend this student while you "wait and see." A firm stand will put out this fire. Are you going to "wait and see" until it draws in the whole student body? again- I wish to say- I am amazed at your silence. The people of Iowa are taking your measure right now. Yours Freely S. J. Melson
