Warning Against N.Z. Hypnotist
(Received 1.30 p.m.) SYDNEY, This Day
The Premier of New South Wales, Mr. B. S. Stevens, speaking in the Hurstville by-election, said that in the face of the latest reports of building activity in New South Wales, it was difficult -to understand why some building trade employees were .prepared to go to New Zealand.
Mr. Stevens claimed that the New South Wales Government had in operation the most active and compre' hensive hox’sing , policy ever introduced in this or . any other Australian State.
He added: “I hope those who may go to New Zealand will satisfy themselves, if they want to send any money across to relatives or friends in Australia, that ‘they can procure the necessary exchange.” Mr. Stevens said he did not object to the Labour Party in this election saying that they should follow the example of New Zealand. , , “In New Zealand today the price of bricks at 'die kiln is 113/ per thousand, as against 68/ in New South Wales. “If you are going to copy New Zealand as an example, then copy it. Don’t just pick the eyes out of it. “Use New Zealand as the authority for the fantastic theory that all workers should be carried free on Government vehicles, and that wages and the cost of living should be fixed by Parliament and not by judicial tribunals.”
