And he Xi« "square*" He can be trusted I In normal times he goes quietly about his business, doing a fair day's work Jor a fair day's pay. In times of stress and difficulty he puts his back into the work ' pi straightening things out. In time of war he laiid down his tools and got himself to the Work of subduing the monster; that threatened his country and his home. He can be trusted I „ C-v \ I\/ET the Bigot and the Crank are screaming from the house-tops that the New ZeaI land worker must not be trusted. He may not even be allowed to choose his own food and drink. They will tell him what is good for him. They are to Prohibit .this and Permit that. The efficiency and morals of the worker are their especial 'care. They know exactly how he should be fed, clothed, and housed, and they consider themselves particularly fitted to prescribe and regulate his pleasures. Gradually the New Zealand worker's "welfare" is becoming the business of a class of patronising faddists, who would — if they could — direct and control him ieven as a similar class m the older countries "patronises" and "manages" the workers. It is a survival of feudalism — the almighty condescension of the Great to the Humble! HPHE Prohibitionist is the individual who has carried this spirit of interference to its \ extreme. He would prohibit first of all the worker's drink, but be assured success m that would not satisfy him. He would proceed to the abolition of tobacco, of racing, of dancing— and of many either of the harmless indulgences which he regards as "vices." Already m Free America there are States where it is a crime to possess a cigarette; . " ' ■ I The New Zealand Worker can be trusted.
