Additional Description

General

Letter. Three priests and 11 others were imprisoned for invading a draft board and destroying records. Zahn supports the individuals in their protest but argues with their means of carrying it out. Regardless, the bail of $25,000 to $30,000 is excessive and an abuse of judicial power.
