LABOUR HAS CUT ■ETjI YOUR WAGES NOT IN THE AMOUNT YOU EARN... How really well off are you today? It may be true that the amount of wages is higher, but the test is what does it buy? Just work it out for yourself. If you get £8 a week, that will buy only what £4/13/4 would buy in 1939. The Govern, ment Statistician corifirms this position in his official figures. A man on £5/16/8 in 1939 needs £lO per week now to break even. As the Labour Government issues more and more “paper money” so your £ buys less and less. You have been the victim of a confidence trick. You have been given more but it buys less. Your wages have been robbed of their real value by Labour’s policy of deliberate inflation. fan NATIONAL N.Z. NATIONAL PARTY 428 Bo not tail I to use jour vote f 8 NATIONAL COUNCIL OF LICENSED TRADE
