COST OF LIVING.
We can blame the Labour Government for the high price of board, the cheap quality of food served and the restricted meal hours we endure. Our landlady cannot afford better with every expense item, from rates to rump steak, rising ever higher and higher, caused by the economic waste of this 'Tabourers' Government." We are ajl paying for the wicked extravagance and waste of monev going on all over the country in regard to the thousands "putting in time" at a pound a day, to give an appcarance of reduced unemployment for Mr. Armstrong. My advice to Mr. Semple is to disguise himself as a commercial traveller and drive round his spendthrift works, where he would see the greatest "loaf of all time being enacted. The present Government arc still the "agitators*' thev always were. They are sapping the manhood of our real New Zealanders. creatin? a generation of spineless things, and causing untold worry to all who carry any responsibility whatsoever.
