SOCIALISTIC REFORMS
A CANDID CRITIC. LONDON, January 7. The Standard publishes an interview with Mr E. G. Jellicoe, barrister, who has recently arrived from New Zealand. Mr Jellicoe says that all his political views had been falsified by the actual working of socialistic reforms. Individual thrift and enterprise in New Zealand were substantially annihilated, and New Zealand was almost on the brink of ruin. The Arbitration Acts were spurious attempts at reform, and had resulted in the creation of a host of well-paid officials who live by harassing trade and industry. A similar mad socialistic wave had also overtaken Australia.
