Fair Enough By Weatbrook Pegler 1947 Commentary
An opinion piece critiques a New York City scandal involving a young woman and police action on Park Avenue. It contrasts juvenile delinquency amid democracy debates with moral discipline, praising character and personal honor over sensational publicity. It then shifts to a long anecdotal diversional tale of a boy from Alaska to Colorado, portraying resilience behind a harsh early life and pathways to becoming a respected citizen, before returning to a broad critique of societal values. The piece ends by noting a New Zealand epidemic sweeping Auckland and the north island, with rising case counts.
