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 spr 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.

D. Smith.—Too long. See rules above. Alison Neale. —We will put the question. Seth Newell. —Hardly relevant until our roads are widened. B. P. Lilburn.—-Vietnam not at present open for discussion here. Not Proof-Read.—Not the proofreader but the reporter, who has been reprimanded. 82-Year-Old Pensioner. Your generalisation is too sweeping, and probably unfair to many union secretaries. Wondering.—Our motoring correspondent says lack of a suitable car was the problem this season. There has been no mention of retirement, or of competing overseas.
