Thoughts For The Times
Mn Massey on the Financial Outlook.
■ Asked as to the general financial outlook lor 1921 by the representative of a southern journal recently, the Prime .Minister was not as pessimistic as the bankers. ‘‘l do not see why New Zealand should not go ahead in the coming year,'’ he said •‘though of course we cannot expect to have the prosperity that wo had from the huge sums oi money paid into the country by the Imperial Government during the war for the produce they bought from us. We aire still enjoying the prosperity bought about by the millions we received in that way, but sooner or later that must come to an end, and we must be prepared to take wliat price wo can get in the markets of the world. But on the whole I think the financial outlook is reasonably good, anil there has been an improvement to some extent of late, although perhaps that would hardly he admitted by financial authorities.”
