AIMS OF LABOUR.
•A correspondent in our :esue of to-day appears deeply concerned at the prospect of the Massey Government being i ■aibJo to do n'nything for the worker, j He seems to think 'that without a La•bouir Government the whole scheme.of legislation 'must fail. The fallacy of 'this (belief is revealed by history. During the last twenty years Labour has pVawtioally ruled the rooist in New Zealand, with the result that the position. of the wo-rkcr iw worse now than it was in the beginning. It is aibout time that 'the warfare between Capital and Labour in this Dominion wore to cease. .Give Capital fair play, and it will produce an abundance of Labour. Cripple .it, and Labour is ruined. If the Massey Government can succeed 'im restoring the confidenc eof those having money to invelst, i:t will do more, ifor tlhe worker than all tho enactments ,that- ha ve been placed upon' the Statute Book since the inception of constitutional government.
