ADDRESS BY MR. NASH, M.P.

A political address was delivered by Mr. W. Nash, M.P., in the King George Concert Chamber, Lower Hutt, last evening. Mr. W. Jarvio, vice-president o£ the Hutt branch of the Labour Party, presided, and there was a fair attendance. Mr. Nash explained the nature of the Bills passed last session, and said that the most profound questions for consideration wore the faults in the present economic'system with the resultant unemployment, distress, and proposed restriction of exports. Mr. Nash detailed proposals which, if carried out, would, he contended, give an immediate measure of relief to all the unemployed. He believed that the first essential for all good government was a guarantee to everyone willing to work that so long as the resources of the Dominion would provide it they and their dependants should have an income sufficient to provide food, clothing, and a home. Maintenance in the fullest sense, said Mr. Nash, was the first principle. When it had been provided, the Government, Parliament, and economists could work out plans to remove the faults of the present economic system.
