BACK TO THE LAND
There is no room for a privileged class* in. the Dominion, and certainly State servants who have been retired should have no- exceptional advantages over the- ordinary individual who has had a greater struggle to survive than the •person the Government is taking bo much care of. We feel for the Givi] servants whose servioes have been dispensed with, but that sympathy does .not overshadow the fact that there are others who stand more in need of practical sympathy that is a material help in time of trouble. It is not unlikely that the Government's misplaced sympathy will be wasted on retrenched Givi! servants,, for few of them will take 1 advantage of the offer that was specially made to suit them, and that those more entitled to it are shut out from participating in.—“oiorth Otago Times.”
