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.

Harbour Swimmer. —Your criticisms and questions should have been raised at the inquiry. Tongue-in-cheek Socialist. —You fail to explain “the power this merger could give the welfare state.” Murray D. Olds.—The “seating arrangements” at the Paris peace talks are the outward recognition of the standing of each party “seated” at the conference table. Spare the Rod.—Publication of names might hurt the children more than the parents.
