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.

Proverbs VIII;l-9. —Hardly the point. Not One-sided. —We have space only to comment on the leading competitors. Veteran.—You may discuss land prices if you wish; but you should not attempt to relate the subject either to religion or Army service. O. G. Moody.—lrrelevant to the purpose of the letter, which was to correct our report of Mr White's address. We have no space here for a discussion of spiritualism. Varian J. Wilson.—" Editorial policy" is expressed only in our leading articles. The selection of news is in the hands of a staff whom we believe to be competent and objective. Pat Anderson (Patumahoe). — Nonsense. We have printed many articles giving the South Africans’ side of the apartheid question and the South African Government Information Service has availed itself of our offer to allow reasonable space In our columns to answer criticism.
