PERIODICALS FOR THE NAVY
SIR,—We cordially agree with Mr. Latham in his opinion that a wide distribution of periodicals like The Spectator would be a help to men in all branches of the Armed Forces. Since early 1940 we have enlisted the help of hundreds of friends who have sent newspapers to service men in all parts of the world ; but we have always been in need of more to send well balanced weekly publications. In many cases helpful correspondence has taken place between senders and receivers ; and although there have been difficulties due to quickly changing addresses, loss of life and so on, there is no doubt the scheme has brought great benefits and pleasure to all concerned.
If any of your readers would care to promise to send such publications as The Spectator we would gladly try to provide names and addresses of Naval, Army or Air Force personnel who would be glad to receive
them.—I am, Sir, yours faithfully, (Miss) A. HAMILTON.
