Initial confusion

Sir: May I complain, and then explain, and finally ask for support? Last week (City and suburban, 5 September), Christopher Fiides supported Brian Pearse's disband- ment of committees at the Midland Bank under the headline `NABC' (Not Another Bloody Committee). As a vice- chairman of the National Association of Boys' Clubs, I Was perturbed to see our initials appearing in. this rather surprising manner. Compa- nies that follow these two eminent gentle- men's advice and abandon their committee structures might consider passing some of the savings achieved towards the good work of the NABC.
