"TELL NEW ZEALAND CAMPAIGN"
TO THE EDITOR OT THE PRESS.
Sir,-Thanking you for your permtesibn to conclude this "korero, I will be brief. "Old Age Pensioner 1 wrongfully considers himself the only Sfdual using this .pen-name and has not grasped the point I wished to express. S He also must be. an exceptional pensioner, not agreeing that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush," and stating that any other Government would treat him as well as the one we already have. I am not an old age pensioner, although past the span, and not likely to gain any benefit from the Government's superannuation • project. Nevertheless . I know there are many thousands in New Zealand who have not been m the political picture at all under previous Governments who will now know they are something to be considered and thought of. . The rest of "Old Age Pensioners letter is as cumbersome and unwieldy as the old worn-out monetary system that made him an old age pensioner instead of a participant in the wealth that he and all other workers in the country have produced and are ]ustly entitled to.-Yours k et., sEYMOuß>
[This correspondence is now closed.— Ed., "The Press."]
