Corso decision
Sir, — If I had an organisation with three or four partners and 3500,000 income out of which I spent §200,000 on salaries, free travel within and outside New Zealand and somebody called me a capitalist exploiter I would have to agree. After all I do not ac-
tually produce anything to add to the wealth of the nation so I live on the fat of our exploited workers. In my defence I point out that I distribute $300,000 to the needy I found while whizzing overseas and thus I do Government work. Alternatively, I say that I teach our people. If someone said that any social studies teacher does the same I rely on my la.? line of defence: I teach them that we should eliminate capitalism. It is still not very efficient because for $500,000 we could buy some 10M issues of our official S.U.P. newspaper. — Yours, etc.,
C. E. FIELD October 1, 1979.
