Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria College, Wellington, N.Z. Vol. 5, No. 5. July 2, 1942

[Letter to Salient from Too Little and Too Light, July 2, 1942]

Sir,—Surely [unclear: the] Alcoholic Reform Association is too modest in its platform. I suggest that they further (a) urge the Government to reduce the fizz content of lemonade, (b) urge the Government to strictly enforce the laws regarding the tendering of correct change in trams, (c) urge the Government to follow Australia's lead and reduce the manufacture of nail files, (d) urge the Government to reduce the hours of the sale of oyster patties by closing pastrycooks' shops for a quarter of an hour on Tuesday mornings.

Such steps, if carried out, would certainly weld the nation more closely into that [unclear: unity] and efficiency which the milk-swilling association is striving for.

—Yours, etc.,

Too Little and Too Light
