LABOUR POLITICS.
(To the Editor.) Sir, —In reply to my so-called “duplicate” letter another correspondent, “Li.ttlo Sister,” takes me to task for advocating the use of a horse paddock for “thinking” people to air their views, and draws my attention to the fact that, many years past, Labour leaders were driven off the streets and suffered indignity. The late General W. Booth is included. “Little Sister” states the Salvation Army encircles the earth. She omits to state that neither the Salvation Army nor the Labour Party would even be allowed a horse paddock in Russia to air their views. I have no desire to reflect on “Little Sister’s” lack of knowledge, for I have no doubt that, as she develops physically, so will she mentally. Re the Modern Committee Labour Party, I wonder who told “Little Sister” that such existed, as the child of to day does not believe fairy tales". “Little Sister” the “bunch” you refer to have pitched their tent on foreign soil long ago. —I am, etc., ONE IN THE KNOW.
