Newspapers Prohibited
Northern Ireland is the latest country to be added to the list of those to which New Zealanders are not permitted to send newspapers. The preparation of such a list is for the benefit of censors, freeing them from the protracted task of reading everything in mailed newspapers and enabling them to devote the time saved to letters and other tynes of mail. Troop mail is not affected by the prohibitions. The countries and territories now on the prohibited list for newspapers are:— Northern Ireland. Eire, Afghanistan, Andorra, China, Egypt, Iceland, Irak, Iran, Liberia, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tangier, Tibet, Turkey, Russia, Vatican City, Yemen, the Persian Gulf ports of Bahrein, Dubai, Kuwait, Muscat and Suarja. In addition to these any dependencies of any of these territories, or of Denmark, Belgium and France are prohibited.
