Buller By-Election
Sir,—“B. Constant” asserts that the National Government serves all electors. The workers are being fleeced to pay for services that were provided by Labour, not for profit, but to be within reach of the income of the workers. Uneconomic secondary industries? What nonsense, as full employment is far better than mass unemployment. This Government is the highest borrower and taxgatherer in our history, but still they are bankrupt and trust to lnc t and ‘‘easy does it” methods of economic policy. Pernaps ‘‘B. Constant” could tell me why the Government changed its mind on closing several railway lines in once safe Tory seats.— Yours, etc., DISILLUSIONED NATIONALIST. June 7, 1962.
