A candidate for Parliament who ventured recently to express the opinion that the "high cost of living' 'might be explained by the '/cost of high living" was promptly rebuked by a Liberal paper for his coldbloodedness. Another Liberal paper, however, the Auckland Star, commenting on the volume of totalisator investments at the Takapuna races, says: —"At a time when the high cost of living is being given prominence on every election platform it may not be out of place to reflect on what this means. The candidate bemoans the high cost of living, but might he not say a good.deal with at least equal justice about the cost of high living, which certainly enters very largely into the problem with which the average household is confronted to-day. There is much to be said for the contention that people, while grumbling at the high cost of existence, are at the same time failing to observe that reasonable economy which the situation demands."

THE N.Z. WELFARE LEAGUE. DECLARATION FOR CONSTITUTIONAL LABOUR. The National Executive of the New Zealand Welfare League makes the following declaration to the Electors of New Zealand, which it feels sure will be endorsed by all reasonable-minded people throughout the Dominion. TO THE ELECTORS, In connection with the Election now before us we desire it to be known by all, that our League desires to see a just and fair representation of Constitutional Labour in Parliament. During the war period such men as Mr. -W. A. Veitch, Wanganui, and Mr. S. G. Smith, New Plymouth, have shown their loyalty to the Dominion and the Empire, and have repeatedly demonstrated the fact that they are entirely opposed to the destructive and revolutionary methods of the misguided Labour Party as at present constituted and led by Mr. H. Holland. The two men above referred to are men of broad minds, possessed of much practical knowledge, and are constructive politicians, such as are much needed for the welfare of our Country. Men and women of all shades of political opinion who are loyal citizens— Reformers, Liberals and Independents, have said many times over that "If faie Labour men were of the stamp of Mr. W. A. Veitch and Mr. S. G. Smith, moderate, reasonable men, they would support them." We say it now! The Labour problems of our time are so serious that we require all the help we can get from sound Labour men who have had considerable perience, and are not swayed by abstract theories of a Revolutionary Socialistic cast. We respectfully urge upon the electors that in considering the claims of these sensible Labour men they put aside party considerations and give them all the support they possibly can. We urge this not on the ground of party at all, but on the higher ground, which all earnest minded citizens will respect, of what is best for the general, welfare and the interests of the Dominion as a Nation. ' R. W. D. ROBERTSON, National Secretary, N.Z. WELFARE LEAGUE. TO THE ELECTORS OP PATEA. FINAL MESSAGE FROM MR. MASSEY. (MEMO.) Invercargill, 29th November, 1919. Q. V. PEARCE, Esq., M.P., Kakaramea. With reference to the approaching 1 election for the Patea seat you have my authority for stating that you are the Government candidate for Patea. I hope the electors of Patea will avoid vote-splitting, and, bearing1 in mind the serious position of the country owing to the possibility of the revolutionaries being able to secure the balance of power, I trust the supporters of the Reform Party will unite to return the man who has served them loyally and faithfully during" the past eleven years. (Signed) W. P.
