THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES
Socialistic Luahnixgs. The Kent Restriction Act is ail excellent example of the modern politician's delusion that social happiness can be achieved, and the fundamental laws of social life circumvented, by Socialistic legislation, and especially by that kind of Socialistic legislation which amounts to the confiscation of one man’s property for the benefit of other people. The Government, it would appear, is not likely—in this case, at any rate—to he moved by an apiveal to resist and combat this delusion, for Sir Francis Bell, in "'hiding iij; the debate, said, according to one report, that he is “not ashamed of being called a “Socialist.” Tf this ii the feeling of the Government, the outlook for the Dominion, which is suffering increasing injury from Socialistic policies, is black indeed. —-Christchurch Press.
