To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
Your article reporting that Allard Lowenstein "kicked off the Anti-war Vietnam Moratorium" rankles just a bit. At least, it rankles those who are concerned with the historical record. People in this community and elsewhere should know that all through the summer, he agitated among students and peace-minded Democrats against the October 15 Moratorium. Sam Brown and David Hawk, the organizers of this activity, found Lowenstein to be a source of constant obstruction. He has come around now that he has no other choice, lest he be outflanked by Senator Harris. The press created the myth that Lowenstein drove Johnson out of office, and it should not be allowed to similarly distort the facts about October 15.
