FORGET THE FRONTIERS
ithe Editor, New Zealand Listener. Sir,-To me your publication fills a long-felt want in that it sets out in concise form what is on the air. . ... One thing I would like to impress upon you-keep the publication free from cheap journalese. Keep it free from the vicibus criticism, buffoonery, cartoonery, and sneers against good peoples of the world who happen to be of a different opinion from ourselves. There is no nationality in music and art so far as New Zealand is concerned, so let us be generous to our opponents by showing in at least one journal an appreciation of all peoples as potential friends. . « Don’t pander to the mob psychologist who delights in guffawing with the rest of the herd. In other words keep the journal an unbiased entertainment guide, and nothing else. We get enough propaganda in the daily press. Yours, etc.,
Palmerston North.
