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

[Letter to Salient from Anti-Wowser, July 2, 1942]

Sir,—

Congratulations to the Executive on scotching the presumptuous suggestions of those Hamilton women, to the secretary on the letter he wrote them, and to yourself on publishing the correspondence. Of course complete prohibition, at which such impertinent female [unclear: tiSjpfeim,] ensured a good living for many American boys when they returned from World War I, and would do so for our boys after they have won this war. But though I hope our soldiers return to the best jobs possible, I don't think that carrying a gun for bootleggers is a desirable profession.

—Yours, etc.,

Anti-Wowser
