Sir, —With the enemy hammering hard knocks on all our fronts, and our leaders pleading for a united effort Iron: young and old alike to stem the hordes of evil before us, what do we find Tuesday afternoon at one of the Hutt Valley golf links? No less than 40 private motor-cars parked there and the occupants very busy engaged in other than war work. , How do these patriots obtain petrol for such purposes? Why does not the. Manpower Board watch such places of amusement and conscript people with so little to do during working days (Tuesday)? Why cannot such valuable areas of country be taken over and ploughed for potatoes, etc., aud so help the position confronting us today?—l am. Jlte., CADDIE. . . Wellington, August 26.
