LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

(1) Letters to be considered tor this column must not exceed 150 words. They should be on only one side of the paper: preferably typwritten, otherwise dearly written in ink; end ample margins and space between lines should be left for convenience in sub-editing. (2) A legible signature mid 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. On Both Sides Now.—Neither subject open at present Margaret Quantock.— Correspondence on Ireland recently closed. R. B. Tennent.—We doubt whether we can afford the space for such refinements. Caremorn Goose.—Not while the Royal Commission is investigating the matter. Patrick Neary,—No space to take the correspondence in to these by-ways. H. Kerkhofs.—We have no space to discuss the verdict on “Hair.” P. J. Saxby and Lest We Forget —Correspondence on Southwest Africa closed. Running Scared.—Bus drivers have no more right than other drivers to pull out from the kerb into a stream of traffic. But as a matter of courtesy motorists should try to help bus drivers in their far-froru-easy task.
