Fishing Limits
Sir, —The big red bogy has really bitten L. G. W. who has obviously succumbed to the massive doses of propaganda that we are subjected to. Hasn’t he heard that the “peril” has had a colour transformation—from red to yellow? As for our esteemed Government’s backdown to Japan over our 12-mile limit: would it be, perhaps, because a large percentage of the Japanese vessels fishing in close proxim'ty to New Zealand are, in fact, based on Western Samoa and are supplying their catches to the big canning concerns there? These canneries are owned and operated by businessmen
from the nation which is posing the greatest threat to New Zealand’s independence —the U.S.A.—Yours, etc., AWAKE. April 9, 1967.
