"THE SPECTATOR" IN GERMANY

Sta,—I cannot say that my letter is one of your usual readers, and I will not answer to any article or problem written in your colums. A young German student I know your newspaper but since the end of the war, and I can read it only occasionally in reading-rooms (if it is not already occupied by other people). And it is " not for sale." But I am estimating your newspaper and would like to become a regular reader instead of one dependent on chance. As reported recently by radio, English publishers now are allowed to send their newspapers to Germany. English friends may order them. But here is the difficulty for me. And that is the reason I am addressing myself to you: I don't know anybody, who would do it for me. I would like to correspond with a young Englishman, perhaps a student too. That is the best way—in my opinion—to contribute to more understanding between our countries. To-day it is more necessary than formerly. Can you help me on this way?—Yours faithfully,
