DISINHERITANCE
MATTER AGAIN RAISED BY MR. DOIDGE (P.A.) Dunedin, April 10. In the course of an address by Mr. F. W. Doidge, M.P. for Tauranga, last night, a charge that the Labour Party, in spite of the vigorous denials of various Ministers, had considered the question of the right of inheritance, was repeated. Mr. Doidge said that the Labour Party conference in 1935 had considered such a remit from the Dunedin North branch and that the Ministerial denials showed what short memories those Ministers had. “Why all these indignant denials about inheritance?” Mr. Doidge asked. “Is not the first plank of the Labour Party the nationalisation of the means of production, distribution and exchange? If that is so, how can there be any inheritance anyway? Is the Government to reassure the people by saying that little Red Riding Hood must not have any fear of the big, kind wolf?”
