A FAIR DEAL? (To the Editor.) Sir. —Being one of the forty-odd sinners may I enter my protest against the fines levied on us for our crime? My hose was forgotten till 12 past 7, when I turned it off and as I nave neither lawns nor flower gardens and am trying to obey the injunction to "grow more vegetables.” my use of the water is never wasteful. The Turncock’s words to me, eight in number only, were spoken some time after the water was turned off and I did not know who the man was till later on when a neighbour told me. He did not speak to me while the hose was on and I have been told that, legally, this should be done. Can you enlighten me? We were given nearly two months to worry over our sins and I, for one, could not go to the Court and am now faced with a “demand” notice for £1 10s 6d. Probably this is a fair deal, but I fail to see it. Thank you.—l am, etc., ONE OF THE SINNERS.
