NATIONAL PARTY POLICY
Sir,—Mr Holland. Leader of the Opposition. has again been discussing his party s. policy—that is, the portion deemed advisable to publish—and has again been obediently and prominently quoted by the press. Certain controls will be lifted, and the land sales " reviewed,” enabling his masters to regain their stranglehold on the producing public. His masters grip can be so tightened that toe need will be imposed to squeeze 5001 b of wool into a pack, with no thought at all for the handlers in store or wharf. The large, fat men around wool stores are not toe handlers of wool bales. Workers compensation will be handed back to tne private profit vultures. ' Mr Holland, as Prime Minister (spare toe thought), will not be placed in the position Mr Fraser is now in in the question of defence. Mr Holland’s. way. is.not to consult the people .on whom he has depended to provide him with a job. If Mr Holland"' wants it he will have it—or else. Of course, he Is not a dictator, nor will he be dictated to. In fact, the wrecker will wreck all the workers have struggled for, given toe opportunity. “ Matilda ” and other -professional scribes may pounce on this letter and endeavour to explain away these outbursts of their idol. Would that someone wtlb do so and give us some idea of • toe National Party policy. Or is that Policy, I S am S , elr 8 * suspected ' Ex n . o s^San.''
