Letter xo the Editor THE approaching date of issue of the of the Tokelau Islands’ postage stamps prompts me to write in sup port of Mr. McKay’s letter in the Novem ber issue of “PIM.”

The revenue accruing from the sale of the stamps will not enrich “some New Zealand Department,” but will enrich the Tokelau Islands Account a very good

way of doing so, in my opinion (I speak as a stamp collector). Better than calling upon the NZ taxpayer to foot the bill for all services rendered to the Tokelau people.

I am, etc,,
