[To the Editor of THE SPECTATOR] SIR,—I am writing to

endorse Mr. Douglas Reed's letter. I am afraid I still regard the case for wholesale refugee- immigration to be non-proven. However, as you maintain that the immigrants will prove a blessing to the country, you will surely agree that one of the first proofs of their bona fides would have been to volunteer for National Service. It would be interesting to know what proportion of them have done so up to date.—I remain, Sir, yours faithfully, BERYL SAVAGE.
