THE 'DAILY SKETCH' AND THE ANZIO CRASH

SIR,—As a professional journalist working in Fleet Street, 1 would like to assure you that Pharos's eossr, ment on the Daily Sketch editorial on the death 0`. its representatives in the Anzio air crash reflected the reaction of fellow newspapermen with whom I d'5, cussed it far more accurately than Mr. Stain"4' Nicholson's letter. Mr. Nicholson's eagerness to defend the edittlt of the Daily Sketch, who also happens to be the president of his organisation, is understandable, buit it does not qualify him to speak for 'professions journalists everywhere.'—Yours faithfully,
