Puts All Blame On Salisbury To the Editor of The Sun—Sir: The headline in today's issue of The Sun is grossly inaccurate and libelous. It is not borne out by the facts contained in the body of the article. This was notja "Shore mob," as there is no evidence that the various elements which took part in this ghastly affair came from any other place than the town which was the scene of the lynching, or the immediate environs, Salisbury is a very small portion of the 6,000 square miles comprised by the Shore. A. Jay Bybd. Dreka, Va„ Dec. 5, 1931.
