STATE ADVANCES
(To the Editor.) Sir, —I would like to voice a strong complaint and at the same time support your , correspondent, "This Year, 8om» Time," in regard to Government loans. I have now been waiting twenty months for a Government loan, arid can give at least one,instance of a loan being granted to the purchaser of a Government section within four months, who was a single man and not in need of same, when it was granted. I can prove this statement. The State Advances Department can >hardly argue that this particular case was a necessitous one. With. , this going on, it practically amounts to the Government dictating to people where they should live, and had I known when I applied for the loan that this state of affairs existed, I certainly would not have lodged my application. I trust that something will be done immediately to have fair treatment meted out to those workers who are in urgent need of the loans but who have not bought Government sections.—l am, etc., ' ' A WORKER.
