At Least Have Earned Respect
GOVERNMENT’S DESIRE TO GET COUNTRY PROSPEROUS More than once during his address in Palmerston North yesterday, Hon. J. G. Coates emphasised the desire of the Government to sec the country rehabilitated as quickly as possible. “Let me tell you this,” ho said. “Some of you believe that the administrators ot this country go to Wellington and legislate without recognising the conditions under which the various sections of the people arc living. Of course we recognise them. What do you think we are striving for? Our one object is to bring about rehabilitation so that our peoplo might once again move into industry. We are prepared to be unpopular in certain directions but we bring our measures down only because wo believe them escntial. What would you think of a Government that did nothing? You at least can say we have not taken our hands off the plough (applause) and wo have, I think, earned and arc entitled to your respect. (Aplausc.)
