'lf the eWebbs were to win alround, as Mr MdNab appears to desire, the Defence Act would be swept off the. Statute Book, the flaxmills and other tries would be run by the State, privatte wealth would be confiscated) and the destiny of the Dominion would be placed in the Viands of a body of ruthless exploiters. ; Mr McNab will probably have realised, before now,' that he has irrevocably declared himself in sympathy with -the "Red Flagand that he can no longer, claim to.be exponent of "Liberal" views or a friend of the defence system.
