Sentiment and Fact
"MORTGAGOR".
Sir, — During his recent broadcast address Mr Nash made a remark which cannot go unchallenged. He appealed to farmers' wives to remember 1935 when, uncertain as to the price they were to receive for their produce, they were compelled to beg solicitors to use their influences with mortgagees to prevent the latter foreclosing. Mr Nasli would do well to remember that even a sentimental appeal should have some basis on fact. In 1935 tlie mortgageo could not foreclose because mortgagors had. only to appeal for the protection of the Court under the Mortgagors Adjustment Act. Incidentally the mortgagor, under the Labour Government's mortgage legislation, has no more advantage than he had under tlie previous Act. — Yours, etc..
Hastings, September 1, 1937.
