LABOUR CANDIDATE
MR. J. JONES'S CAMPAIGN. ACTIVITY IN COUNTRY DISTRICTS Mr. J. Jones, the official Labour candidate, has been speaking at Kaitangaweka on Saturday afternoon and at Mokauiti, Waitanguru, MairOa, Moeatoa and Kiritehere during the week.

Could legislation such as the Mortgage Corporation remedy this disparity?
