News Media And “Protection”
i ; Sir, —1 agree with and support the statements by Mrs Kirk. All news media sup-; ; port and are the friends of the National Party. My days are drawing to a close. It! is my duty to enlighten! young New Zealanders, not: mislead them like your correspondent, “West Coast.” At| the outbreak of World War: I, also World War 11, only a! few thousand volunteered tor serve overseas. The Govern- 1 I ments of the day were forced Ito bring in conscription. All jour brave nurses, and every member of the famous Maori I Battalion, were volunteers. j Some Labour members of Par- ' lliament objected to serving overseas during World War ! I as the then Government i conscripted lives but not • wealth.—Yours, etc., : FLEMING ROSS MILLER. , October 14, 1969. I
