SPIRIT OF UNITY
EMPLOYERS AND WORKERS
In all directions there was State interference, said Mr. K. J. Holyoake (National, Pahiatua), speaking in the Budget debate in the House of Repre-, sentatives last night. That was not the National Party's idea. It stood for competition. Mr. Holyoake said the Government now taike'd of establishing a State monopoly of civil aviation transport. There was exchange control and import selection and now the country was informed that the State had decided to purchase the private shares in the Bank of New Zealand. The Government was setting out to establish a monopolistic totalitarian State. There was room for co-operation between the State and private enterprise in the direction of research, education, the establishment of new industries and in exploration for new markets. Mr. Holyoake said it should be regarded as sedition to incite class against class. Class warfare was still being waged in the Dominion. The people should be united. The Opposition favoured the establishment of a bureau of industrial harmony to encourage employers and employees to come together. ~ -. > ■
