Slaughter's support solid To the editor: In a recent letter I said that one could judge a man by his opponents, meaning that the opposition to D. French Slaughter Jr. by a liberal organization made him all the more suitable for reelection. If Lee Bird had agreed with my statement I would have had to go back to the drawing board and restate the whole thing. His opponent’s lack of any kind of qualifications solidifies the support for Rep. Slaughter. JESSE POND Sperryville
