LAND OF OPPORTUNITY
Once upon a time New Zealanders used to think proudly of our country as a Land of Opportunity. Can the Dominion be so described today? It pan—provided the road is left clear for the men of ideas, initiative, and enterprise to go into action and perform constructive work for the upbuilding of New Zealand.
How will New Zealand look to our soldiers, sailors, and airmen when the war is over? They are likely to be appalled at the amount of restrictions and red tape that confronts them. In their off-duty hours at the front they have dreamed and planned for the future. Will they be allowed the freedom to put their plans into action—to engage in new enterprises, create their own homes, and to make New Zealand a better land for their children? The National Party sees the postwar era as a golden scheme to make New Zealand a land of unrivalled opportunity. Congenial and constructive work for all at good wages—a home for every family.—closer settlement of the land—improvement of rural amenities —promotion of good health, rather than cure of disease —better citizenship —security for all and help for everyone in need. Vote National for an inspiring national Government.—Advt.
