SIR,—May I suggest to the Senior Censor of Christ Church

that the specially chosen lesson in the cathedral would more appropriately have been Matthew vii, 3-5?

Whatever differences may exist in Oxford about whether a road through Christ Church

Meadows is desirable, we all share a common view on one question. All responsible opinion in Oxford from the City and the University loins in condemning Mr. Blake's college for its action in destroying amenity and increasing traffic congestion by encouraging the ex-. tension of chain-store activity in the Corn- market at this time.—Yours faithfully,

29 Bainton Road, Oxford
