LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

1. Letters sent to the Editor for printing should preferably be typed, otherwise they must be written in ink on one side of the paper only. A legible signature and full address are required, whether these are to be published or not. A P.O box number is not a sufficient address. 2 Writers must say clearly whether or not their letters are being or have been sent to other papers. 3. The Editor cannot return or keep any letter which, for any reason, is unsuitable for printing; nor can he acknowledge unsuitable letters, although this will be done where it seems to be needful, or enter into any correspondence. 4. Letters must not be of more than 150 words.

We Will Remember Them. —No space to repeat the recent correspondence on Anzac Day. H.S.—The winter months of June, July, and August last year were the coldest since 1951, according to the meteorological office at Christchurch Airport. Taking into account not only temperature but rainfall and wind, last winter was the worst for 18 years. The weather in July last year was the worst for that month for 25 years. Manhandled.—The Chief Superintendent of Police (Mr G. C. Urquhart) comments: “There was an arrest in the Square where two women were involved and also a man. They were charged with obstructing the police in the execution of their duty and were subsequently convicted and fined. The matter was fully ventilated in court and the allegations outlined by the writer are not in accord with what actually transpired.”
