Cynicism

Sirs,—Your columnist "Cynic" thinks it odd that I asked Mr. Gager to stand for the post of Publications Officer. Would he believe that I simply think he is the best man available for the job? I can't see that politics come into such a matter—but rather that we must have the best possible administration of a portfolio which controls contracts worth over $14,000 per year.

To tag me as a "conservative" is an ill considered and inaccurate generalisation. I had hoped the new writer of "Cynic" might avoid the pitfalls of brevity and sensationalism which the first writer of "Insight" so often fell into.
