Subject: We who are without sin...

Chief Scout Garth Morrison has it backward ("We're not prepared to
salute adulterer", June 12).  It will actually do scouts harm if the
governing council were to scrap the oath of loyalty to the monarch
just because Prince Charles has admitted aldultery.  Doing so would
give scouts the impression that if it were not for the sin revealed in
that brave confession, the monarchy would be guiltless.  If they are
going to question loyalty to the monarch, they are obliged to do it
for substantial reasons -- of which there are many.
