ADDITIONAL PENSIONS.
To the Editor. Sir, —In your answer to correspondent I "Reservist," Oakura, you say: "The widow could apply for an additional pension of 15s a week if the amount received did not enable her to live a<s cording to her pre-war standard." If so, the sooner there is a general election to enable electors to return a government that would ensure that the charwomen of this colony shall derive th» same benefit from the taxpayer as a member of the mock aristocracy, the better.—l am, etc., E. 0. M. Korito, 22nd May.
