JOHN HAMILTON,
Sir, - After years of deviousness and cynical mismanagement by politicians and officials at both county and State levels, I am at a loss to comprehend why the ruling regime appears, yet again, to be in sight of even a slim majority at the forthcoming general election.
Could it be that both Government and now, apparently, one element of Christendom, have combined to so blunt the tolerance and morality of the plain people of Ireland that these too no longer know right from wrong? - Yours, etc.,
JOHN HAMILTON, Clover Hill, Killorglin, Co Kerry.
