Modification of welfare state?
That there might have to he some modification of the welfare state was suggested by Mr L. A. Cameron, managing director of the Gear Meat Company, when he spoke at the seminar on costs beyond the farm gate at Lincoln College last week. Mr Cameron said that he had seen the development of the welfare state and 99 per cent of New Zealand-
ers would have agreed that it was necessary, but he suggested that the stage had now been reached where resources had to be transferred and people had to be persuaded to look after themselves more. He reminded his listeners that welfare states were not found in underdeveloped countries and where the economies would not support them. “What 1 am pleading for is that you do not throw the baby out with the water,” he said.
