DOUGLAS SOCIAL CREDIT
Sir.—Tim cxcuso for a veply by the Auckland Douglas Social Credit Association to my two simple questions is worse than weak. These folk utterly condemn our present monetary system —many of them in most unmeasured terms —and repeatedly insist that money has no value and amounts only to "tickets." It will not take much space to answer "yes" or "no" to my first essential question: Under Douglas Social Credit is gold abolished as the basis of currency and credit or is it not? And, if it is to be abolished, surely the public is entitled to know what words (they cannot be very many) are to be printed on these tickets—to know what value they represent or purport to represent. If the advocates of this allegedly wonderful reform cannot reply to these fundamental questions it stands condemned. Want of space is an excuse as valueless as I believe their pappr currency would be. Student.
