Hats off to Aaron Feuerstein

By Martin L. Lebowitz, YI Member

Regarding the April 4 Business article "Out in the Cold?": Too many CEO's have opted to fill their wallets with obscene salaries at the expense of their workers.

It's refreshing and inspiring to read about Aaron Feuerstein, president and CEO of Malden Mills, swimming against that tide and demonstrating a deep-seated responsibility to his workers and community by doing what's right!

It would be a shame if this outstanding role model were forced out of the company his grandfather founded more than 100 years ago. I say to his creditors, be patient. And to his admires I say, buy Polartec fleece fabric!
