FERRARA, CHAVEZ, AND HARVARD UNIONS

THE MAIL

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

To The Editors of The Crimson:

Peter Ferrara has the distinction of being the first Crimson contributor whose work ("Is Chavez Fooling Harvard,"Crimson, Oct. 21) is hanging in the Chelsea market. By the time he gets his grapeskin he may make the Fulton market: if he had his way, there's still be scab products around a couple of years from now.

What a loss to everyone that Ferrara was too young to be in college during the Farah strike: the strikers would have found out how soft they were living; the world could have blissfully worn its (then) scab pants; and the Crimson could have gotten all that income from scab advertising.

I wonder how soon Ferrara will write a full page article explaining why the Harvard workers really don't need to unionize after all. And how much faith do the workers in the Yard have any more in the Crimson's support for their unionization efforts?
