To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

Your Tuesday editorial "No More Bricks" exhibits the most unbelievable shortsightness. Your claim is that Radcliffe should spend no more money on new dormitories because students today demand off-campus housing. This is merely a thinly cloaked desire to drive away many low income families from the Cambridge area since cartels of Harvard and Radcliffe students are willing to pay exorbitant rents that no working family man can afford. On the contrary, Radcliffe should continue its dormitory building program, and should require that students live on campus.

What hypocrites you are if you write on the first page of the CRIMSON of your seeming concern to get more scholarships for low income students, and on the second page of your desire to drive all low income groups from Cambridge! Peter Valberg
