MAGAZINE CEASES PUBLICATION
POLICE PAY VISIT TO PRINTER
(United Press Association)
CHRISTCHURCH, June 13,
The fortnightly paper Tomorrow has cease,d publication. A statement on the decision of the controllers of the paper is made in a circular letter to subscribers signed by the editor, Mr Kennaway Henderson, of Christchurch. The statement says:— “It is with regret that we announce to our many subscribers that we have temporarily ceased publication. The reason for this is that last week the superintendent of police visited our printer and warned him of the risk he was running in continuing to print tomorrow. The superintendent pointed out that the police have the power to seize any printing press and they would not hesitate to use this power if any subversive article were printed. The editor was similarly warned. After the visit our printer informed us that he was not prepared to print any further issues.”
