WELLINGTON WEST

Mr. C, M. Bowden (National), speaking in the Parish Hall, Karori, last evening, traversed the main .points of the National Party's policy and in p.-irtieiilar said that it would retain all social security benefits, use every effort to prosecute the war and rehabilitation, give justice to the Civil Service, provide houses, revise taxation on lower incomes, abolish controls and endeavour to reduce the cost of living, lie said that the policy of the Labour Government was to bring control to bear on the community, section by section. following lhe now familiar practice of “divide and conquer.” whereiinler eventually all would become serfs of the State. The National Party offered full opportunity for the exercise of individual initiative ami enterprise. That, the Labour Party had departed from its original conceptions and tiolicv was proved by the

defections of many of the original members, while at the same time the Communist element bad thrown in their lot with the Government, who apparently were glad to have them iu an endeavour to retain office. In reply to an interjector at the Aro Street Alission last evening, Airs. Stewart (Labour) said that the old-age benefits were greater today than at any time iu the history of New Zealand and, given the opportunity, Labour would do even better. The candidate stated that motherhood endowments were introduced by her Government in the form of family allowances. COMING MEETINGS Hun. W. Nash, Labour, Hutt. Oildfellows’ Hall.
