It's September fourteenth, and on this day in 1957... Elvis Presley responded publicly to statements made by his longtime guitarist Scotty Moore, who had voiced frustration over financial matters in the *Memphis Press-Scimitar*. In an open letter published in the same paper, Elvis expressed disappointment that the issue had been taken to the press instead of being discussed privately. The exchange revealed growing tension within the band and marked a rare moment when Elvis directly addressed internal conflict in a public forum.
