This is one of many letters written to Arnold Beckman in response to his speech on the topic of education. George Spencer Wice writes of his disapproval of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce’s apparent apathy about the composition of the Board of Education. He also warns that communists are infiltrating American churches, including the Fullerton Methodist Church.
