S. Cawtheray.—Referred to N.Z.B.C. for comment. Cherchez la Verite. —You must chercher within 150 words. See rules above. Charles H. Nicholson.—No space for another correspondence on apartheid just now. T. —Does not comply with rules set out above. Our views on vandalism and on traffic offences have been expressed frequently; and you should address yourself to facts rather than to your suppositions about them. John F. Reid (Nelson). —The 150word limit is primarily for our own convenience, although it also has the merit of giving a larger number of correspondents access to our columns. However, we make no apology for the occasional failure to count the words. A correspondent has only one letter to count; we have to deal with 20 or 30 in an evening.
