Letter writers weigh Passman and Kennon endorsements
Readers critique Congressman Passman for backing McKeithen and for past influence in the Fifth District. They question if his endorsement altered Kennon’s results, urge him to declare policy stands on taxes, agriculture, civil rights, and foreign aid, and urge respect for the late president’s memory while cautioning on federal control issues. The second letter echoes concern about postwar federal power and UN involvement, urging careful consideration of tax cuts and civil rights legislation.
