Exchange between Heath and Rev. Dr. Howard E. Kershner Christian Freedom Foundation, Inc., 26 West 58^th Street, New York 19, New York

September 19, 1955

 

 

Dear Dr. Kershner:

 

The other day my grandson read to me your beautiful Sermonette in the September 6 issue of “Christian Economics”. In fact, he read it twice to me, and only just now I have had him read it to me again.

 

     I think it is one of the finest expressions of its kind that I have ever seen or known. It only confirms my strong belief in the great good you are doing not only in the economic way but in those things which we consider higher than food and raiment and towards which we all aspire.

 

Sincerely yours,

ENC: “The Trojan Horse of Land Reform”

Dear Mr. Heath:                       September 27, 1955

 

Thanks for the kind words in your letter of September 19. It is such expressions that give us the courage to continue.

     I have read “The Trojan Horse of Land Reform.” It is the best statement I have seen setting forth the truth about the whole land program. The Henry George people have not made much headway in this country, and it does not seem to be a critical issue at this time. If it should become so, we have filed your statement for possible use.

     The Sermonettes are now used in about 660 churches for a total of 110,000. Your approval of this one effort is highly encouraging.

     With all good wishes, I am

Most sincerely yours,

/s/ Howard E. Kershner
