EMERGENCY SUBSCRIPTION RATES IN order to economise paper, the quantity

of news- papers and other journals supplied to newsagents on the usual sale-or-return basis has now to be seriously restricted. Readers of The Spectator are therefore urged to place a regular order for the paper with a newsagent or bookstall or with the Publishing Office, 99 Gower Street, London, W.C. 1. Subscription rates for copies ordered from the office are 6s. 6d., 13s. and Li 6s., post free for 3 months, 6 months and 12 months respectively.
