s.o.s. s.o.s. CALLING ALL VOTERS! ELECTION “STATISTICS." (Corrected Version) (With SINCERE APOLOGIES lor previous version, mutilated during longdistance transmission.) (Please Read Again!) “Pops” on the Air! WELLINGTON CENTRAL: * 1 Pops ' ’ W. Appleton (Nat.) Nil P. Eraser (Lab.) 3 W. J. Hyde (Ind.) Nil C. G. Scrimgeour (Ind.) .... Nil Total “pops” on the Air 3 Would “Scrim.” like his “pop”? (You're telling me!) Appleton declared: “As a candidate I am just as much entitled to broadcast over the Air as Mr. Eraser.' ' (He's Telling You!) (Strange to say (!) the British Constitution (vide, inter alia, the Bill of Rights, 1689 which ensures candidates exactly equal rights and opportunities at the Polls (thus protecting them from Party domination) entirely supports Appleton's unreasonable (.???) assertion!) (N.B. —This is the ONLY authentic Bill of Rights, dated 1659.) Hyde? (With the “Air-jam” on we can't hear what he has to say. He may be the best of the lot for all we know!) Has there, perchance, been an “unholy” Alliance, between Labour, the “Nats.”, and Lee, to turn our Elections, vital to us all, into a musichall “show” in which they, as the “more mature actresses” jealously keep the limelight to themselves, at our expense, fearing greatly the appearance of younger and more attractive “performers” on the stage? Do we want our Elections turned into a “vaudeville show” for the benefit of the old guard? Fraser (Armed with OUR 16-incli broadcasting “guns”) forces his 3 “salvoes” the length and breadth of the land. By this means he solicits the aid of say, 100,000 voters. (And our votes, remember, may well be considered our most precious gifts to bestow! They may be our passport to Freedom!—our passport to—whatever else we may prefer!) Appleton, “Scrim.” and Hyde, having been denied the use of one of OUR “big guns” each, are forced to fight with THEIR OWN “pea-shooter.” (Is that how wo treat minorities in New Zealand?) There’s a 50/50 for you?? There's British fair play?? Is that the British Constitution?? Air-space for all or no air at all!! That's the British way!! (N.B. —There’s still plenty of Air for all, and to spare.) Vote ONLY for Candidates denied Access to the Airl All Newspapers Please Copy. (Inserted by P. A. Elder, Apiti.) S.O.S. • S.O.S.
