We wish to draw the special attention of our readers
to two items in this issue. In our leading columns we print an account of conversations between a member of our staff and representatives of the Board of Lunacy Control. We wish to hear both sides in the important and painful question of the treatment of lunatics, but it must not be considered that our relations with the Board have in any way led us to recede from the position we took up in a leading article some weeks ago. Rather we feel that the system as described by the members of the Board is such that all the evils it is charged with might be inferred directly without need of all the wealth of corroborative evidence that exists. The second item is Mr. Evelyn Wrench's description of the growing American protests against our accepted policy under the Colonial Office of restricting the rubber output of the Empire.
