Box 1005, Christcurch.
A. W.R., M.J.A;—Your letters referred for comment. B. Would reopen correspondence on a wider subject. P.G. —A previous correspondent said this some time ago. J.D.O’R. —You attribute motives to the writer which he does not hold. P.S.—No address given. If you supply an address, we will seek comment. C. Insufficient address. Anyway, it has already been said that New Zealand is most unlikely to do this. S.H. —As the story on which your letter was based was in another publication, you should send your letter to it. V.W.-Y.—Somewhat obscure. Our readers would not know what type of meeting or what subjects were being discussed. D. Surely you would admit there is a good balance here. We were not devious enough to hide the advertisement on another page. Nor did we suppress views which were critical of the product of an advertiser.
