LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
(1) Letters to be considered for this column must not exceed 150 words. They should be on only one side of the paper; preferably typewritten, otherwise clearly written in ink; and ample margins and space between lines should be left for convenience in sub-editing. (2) A legible signature and full address—not a P.O. Box number are required whether these are to be printed or not. (3) The correspondent must say whether the letter has been or is to be submitted elsewhere. (4) The editor cannot return or keep any letter not accepted for printing; nor does he undertake to acknowledge or enter into correspondence concerning letters, although an acknowledgement will be made where this seems to be necessary or helpfuL (5) As a general rule, correspondence on news items in other publications, or carried on radio and television, is not acceptable. R. C. Goldsborough.—No space for such a discussion. No More Permissiveness. No more space just now. N. G. Hay.—Too long. See rules above. M. Munro.—Noted. The device is useful in avoiding repetition and saving space. Edward Fardell and Warwick J. Robinson.—No space for such a discussion now. Septuagenarian.—No space for another correspondence now on cruelty to animals. Arthur L. Walker.—Your contention would not be supported by any analysis of printing and publishing costs. J.A.K.—The two viewpoints are well understood and we have no space for the- debate here. Peter Johnstone.—You should explain what you mean by ‘'opposing the department’s Policy.” Also, are the users * of the crossing to whom you refer the motorists or the pedestrians?
