D night

Sir: One expects city editors to get their facts right. Patrick Hutber (I December) says that the Observer's business pages on Devaluation Sunday referred to devaluation only as a possibility. Just not so. Look again, Mr Hutber. It was in fact the Sunday Telegraph that ended the night with a main leader-page article still referring to de- valuation only as a possibility—and an unlikely one at that.
