To The Editor:</</b>p>

Replete with inaccuracies designed to make a point, columnist Karen Lee Torre’s article (“No To ABA, Yes To CBA,” Aug. 10) presents anything but a balanced view. Yes, the ABA takes positions that its members bring forward. Any member may propose a position to be taken – whether liberal or conservative – and any member may advocate his or her views to convince the 555-member House of Delegates to adopt that view as policy. The Connecticut bar has seats and presents its views as do all of the other state and local bars in the country.
