THE MONEY SYSTEM
MR. WESTON'S REMARKS REPLY BY PRIME MINISTER [BY TELEGRAPII —PRESB ASSOCIATION] WELLINGTON, Wednesday "Mr. Weston may know something about argument in the Law Courts, but he has a lot to learn about the money system," said the Prime Minister, Mr. Savage, replying in an interview this evening to recent references by 'the president of the New Zealand National Party, Mr. C. H. Weston, to Mr. Savage's claim that ho means "to make New Zealand's purchasing power equivalent to her production." "Our plain case," Mr. Savage said, "is that New Zealand is a long way from bankruptcy. Our production has broken all records. As long as I occupy the position of Prime Minister no one is going to go short, as was the case before we came into office. "We are going ahead by lea.ps and bounds," Mr. Savage said. "New Zealand will pay her way at home and abroad. I do not know bow much more anyone can expect."
