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.

Look Up.—Not open for discussion here. R.B.M.—Comparison is a little far-fetched. White Rose.—Rhodesia not now open for discussion. Paul Mating.—No space for another discussion on pasteurised milk. No "Lout, Beatnik, or Troublemaker.’’—We do not print open letters. Ths Walrus.—We cannot allow you to assume two Identities on the same subject. Percy L. McMillan.—lf you will state the facts as you understand them, we shall seek official comment. But you must withhold your own comment until the facts are confirmed. D. Vicars.—Rhodesia not now open for discussion here. The papers you mentioned are not the only ones that appeared with blank columns after the censor had been at work. Patrick Neary and Quiet Please.—You do him less than justice as, up to a point, he is on your side. The discussion would be academic and our space is under pressure. Ratepayer.—On the contrary, it is the duty of the president of such an organisation to promote the interests of the community as a whole. The personal references are irrelevant and unacceptable. Mr Dollar.—The manager of the branch says that all the bank’s current forms are printed for either currency and have no signs either for £ s d or dollars and cents. He does not know how the "strangers” came to be there.
