Notes	This was one of a number of serious, issue-oriented stories the title did in the early '70s, turning Mr. Smythe into a sort of Archie Bunker character. Smythe even uses racist epithets to describe the neighbors, and other characters refer to him as a "bigot." Art identifiable as Gus LeMoine due to the style (see http://www.toonopedia.com/fastwill.htm) Script identifiable as Dick Malmgren due to his distinctive writing style.
