AGE BENEFIT
Sir.—The amounts stated by your correspondent “Fiat Lux” as extra that he has to pay yearly since the advent of the National Party to power are simply ridiculous. Take one item only, bread. £5 4s. If bread has gone up a pennv a loaf—and I doubt it—that means he and his wife eat 1248 loaves a year. Enough said.—Yours, etc., 40 YEARS A WORKER. September 15, 1953.
