Palmer Hoyt Letter Signed as Editor and Publisher of The Denver Post. One page, 10 1/2" x 7 1/4"; July 28, 1953.

Letter written to Paul C. Smith, President of the Crowell-Collier Publishing Company.

Hoyt writes, in part:

"Thanks for your encouraging words about my recent uncomplimentary and sincere remarks anent the junior senator from Wisconsin (Joseph McCarthy). You will be interested to know that I received more mail as a result of this speech than I have had on any other public expression. It wan about three favorable letters out of every five. The unfavorables constituted a sad collection, only about three of them being from serious-thinking men, and the rest being just about what you'd expect from blind followers of mccarthyism (sic)."
