Dear Editor:
Over and over again your newspaper
continues to serve with integrity.
The people of our community
are indeed fortunate in
having the " Independent Voice
of Farmingdale" bring to light
problems of vital concern to
them.
Our most powerful asset inthe
battle against organizations
which see fit to violate our laws
with impunity and those officials
of government who seek to avoid
enforcement and allow these violations
to go unchallenged, is an
aroused, informed and insistent
public.
In reporting fearlessly on the
long years of illegal operation
of the Morris Karp Fertilizer
Plant and on the responsibility
of Village officials to enforce
our laws and ordinances against:
all violators regardless of their
status in our community, you have
shown all of us that you are
carrying on in the very best
tradition of a free press, namely,
" Your typewriter is a public
t r u s t"
Once again, thank you for your
dedication to the task of serving
the people of our community
