READERS OF the News Chronicle have recently been enlightened on

various aspects of Liberal policy. I am privileged to bring this enlighter ment to a different audience.

The 1.,*b*r*1 leader answers your queries on party policy.

Ask 3* Gem*nd What is the 1-013•141 policy on Free Love?-- (Mrs.) Ethel Grundy.

We stand foursquare for Freedom, against the monolithic tyranny of the two big party machines. We also stand for Love. Whether or not we believe in Free Love, however, must de- pend on circumstances. The American President Garfield said that 'Free Trade can be reached 'only through protection.' We Liberals agree and think it may only be possible to attain Free Love through Marriage. We deplore the failure of the other two parties to make their position clear on this vital issue. Of course the Tories only believe in Free Love for the rich and the Socialists be- lieve in Welfare Love with controls. In any case

you can rely upon us to show the utmost sym- pathy with your attitude, and at Weston-super- Mare, where this problem is acute, readers may be assured that our guidance is freely available to all who seek it.
