The Matching Funds Offer. Correspondence

By Bradley R. Smith ∙ November 1, 1995

Last updated on

In September an Indiana supporter contributed $2,000 to a “matching funds” offer, and in October a California man committed another $1,000 to the offer. This was intended to pay down my Discover Card debt, which a couple months ago stood at $4,880. Thanks to those of you who contributed directly to this fund, the debt (after paying two months interest on the card) is down to $2,915.

There is $850 left in the (total of $3,000 ) matching funds offer. Contributions of $150 (or more), marked directly to “matching funds” could produce $1,700. The full amount of your matching funds check will go directly to Discover Card.

Correspondence I read everything sent me but regretfully can not reply to that which is not of great immediate importance. All correspondence received is considered public domain unless specifically and plainly marked otherwise. If you do not want to be identified by name in SR, please say so in writing.

Because SR is a newsletter, not a magazine, there is not enough space to publish long letters in full. That should be obvious even to my friends. Letters of more than 800 words, which is about one page in SR, become very problematical.

Till next month …

  • Bradley R. Smith

    Bradley R. Smith was born in Los Angeles on February 18, 1930. At 18 he joined the army and in 1951 served with the infantry in Korea where he was twice wounded. After three decades of a variety of professional activities, it suddenly hit him: In 1979 he read a leaflet by Professor Robert Faurisson, "The Problem of the Gas Chambers." Then, Arthur Butz’s The Hoax of the Twentieth Century did it for him. He understood from the beginning that he would address the censorship, the suppression of independent thought, the taboo against publishing and debating revisionist arguments—not the arguments themselves. That has remained his position. In 1989, Smith founded Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODOH) dedicated to defending free speech and free inquiry into the Holocaust question. He handed over CODOH's helm in late 2014. He passed away on his 86th birthday, February 18, 2016. Read a series of obituaries here.

    Smith's Report relates the adventures of the author as he tries, against the better judgement and bitter condemnation of all the best people in America, to encourage open debate on the gas chamber controversy.
