Translation from the January 20, 1966 issue                                                  

To the Editors:

As a retort to Mr. Nabokov, I may quote another French couplet:

Cet animal a parfois tort.
Il faut le gronder quand il mord.

A version in Belorussian will follow as soon as I have mastered that dialect.
