MR NASH’S SYSTEM
Sir,—ln reference to your leading article of March 3, seeing the way the world is drifting Mr Nash’s system should have your support. Is it not the capitalists who control money for profit and place profit before the people's needs and suffering who are driving the nations to Communism? They are looking for a way out and they go the extreme way. We in New Zealand are enjoying a democratic form of Socialism, and while we have such a system working we need not fear Communism. Private enterprise and the press should work side by side and improve the system instead of trying to put us back on a capitalist system. We know Mr Nash’s system cannot work without taxation, but is it not better to be taxed for these benefits we are having in New Zealand than to have a capitalist system working which is driving the most of the nations to the extreme and allowing Communism in?—l am, etc.. Socialism.
