SIR: Having just received several election leaflets from both candidates of the main parties, I was appalled to see the personal attack on the Labour Candidate. Mr Crausby has been a gentleman in this election and has maintained his dignity throughout many personal insults and I would condemn the leaflet received from the Conservative Party.

If Mr Wilson can stoop so low as to create malicious remarks, he does not deserve the support of this town. I would ask him not to put his junk through my door ever again.

I was prepared to listen to his arguments but certainly not to listen to offensive trash.

D Perry (Mrs)
