NATIONAL ATTITUDES
Sir,-With reference to the recent talk of personal relationships I would like to ask; when will the intellectual Kiwi accept his wingless existence? They say complacency and smugness are well worn themes. Surely the analysing of national attitudes is yet another variation.

habitat.
