He has even, through an editorial in the local Catholic newspaper, given his tacit approval. Milwaukee Mayor Henry Maier and at least one judge have quietly dropped Eagle membership since Groppi began his crusade, and last week some 40 other clergymen, from nearly every faith, joined him in opposing the discriminatory clause...
