DR. VALINTINE.
TO THE I.DITOR OF TUB FKESC' Sir, —It is very surprising that there lias not been stronger protest regarding this £SOO which it is proposed to grant as a retiring allowance to Dr. Valintine. Why should lie get it? He was .well:paid for a number of years, thereforo hati the opportunity of providing for his old ago; also could join a superannuation fund. The poor old tax-payer these days is "fed" up." ■ If you know of any list .the Writer could put his name on for a' £SOO retiring''allowance it is';on. In the meantime, liis chief job is to find and pay taxation, which is altogether oppressive.—Fours, etc., HARD UP. September 13th, 1930. [We refer to this letter in our leader columns.—Ed-', The Pitusg.]
