"MORE KICKS THAN HA'PENCE"
"You may take it from me that the National' Party will not practise victimisation of civil servants as Mrs. Dreaver proposes because of their political opinions," said Mr. J. J. Maher (National, Wairarapa), speaking' at Carterton. "The National Party is interested in a civil servant's ability to do his job, not in his political opinions. Personally, I have the highest regard for the Civil Service, who get more kicks than ha'pence. The Labour Government is just like any man who has made a fool of himself —he dislikes the people who have tried to stop him from being foolish. That is why the Labour Party dislikes civil servants, as was demonstrated by Mrs. Dreaver."
