Salient. Victoria University Student Newspaper. Vol. 37, No. 6. April 10, 1974

Sallies are okay

Sallies are okay

Dear Sir,

To David Cunningham—irresponsibly the originator of that flatulent verbal outburst concerned with the Salvation Army—crap!

To castigate a charitable body for accepting monies from an organisation, in this case a nationwide brewery chain, whatever the supposed motives of the latter, when, we, the people of the bloody country support such an organisation in the whole-hearted manner we do, is to display at best incredible naivety or else sensation worthy of our fine Sunday papers.

The Salvation Army is possibly one of the most worthy charitable groups at work in the country today. If you're going to head shit—knock the head off before you plaster the hand attempting to repair the ravages of the overeating.
