ST. HELENA PRISONERS
WITHIN a matter of days, final steps must be taken if the legal proceedings on behalf of the Bahraini prisoners unjustly and illegally detained on St. Helena are to be continued. Though the generosity of many Spectator readers has been very great (some have given twice already), the Appeal Committee (Woodrow Wyatt, MP, Jeremy Thorpe, MP, John Stonehouse, MP, Donald Chesworth, LCC, and Bernard Levin) ask for further contributions to be sent as a matter of urgency to Bernard Levin at the Spectator, 99 Gower Street, W.C.2. For the case to be abandoned now, within sight of victory, would be doubly tragic, and it is earnestly hoped that a large enough sum will be forthcoming as a result of this appeal to make final success pos- sible. Cheques and postal orders should be made payable to 'St. Helena Prisoners Defence Fund.' and all contributions, how- ever large or small, will be most gratefully received, and their receipt acknowledged.
