Is opposed to being open for "Business as Usual"
on Sunday.
Penney’s
Believes that Sunday should be preserved as a
Family Day — Free of all non-essential business
activities.
Penney’s
Sincerely hopes that the Nebraska State Legisla
ture will move to protect Sunday as the tradition
al day of rest.
Penney’s
Hopes that it will not be necessary to reconsider
our position on Sunday openings due to competi
tive conditions.
