POINTS FROM OTHER LETTERS
(Mrs) R. Dunkln asks why an age pensioner and widow who has resided in New Zealand for 25 years cannot have the pension transferred to England. The writer says the widow has been offered a heme in England with her brothers, but they cannot help her financially. “Farmer” wants someone to explain the "enormous difference" between motor-car tyre prices in Australia and in New Zealand. The writer says that he recently had to pay £9 19s for a tyre of a similar type to tyres sold for £5 12s in Australia. “Progress in Peace" objects to the use of a strap with four tails in a district high school, which the writer describes as "a heathen practice.”
