DOCTORS NOT ON STRIKE
MR HAMILTON CONDEMNS SUGGESTION. PROVISION FOR VOLUNTARY AGREEMENT. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WHANGAREI, This Day. Speaking of the attitude of doctors regarding the maternity service contracts, the Leader of the Opposition (the Hon. A. Hamilton) said this morning that it was grossly unfair that anyone should convey by innuendo or suggestion that in not accepting what the Government suggested, , doctors were on strike or were defying the law. "The fact is that as the law is written in the Social Security Act, doctors are to be brought into the scheme by voluntary arrangement between the Government and themselves." Mr Hamilton observed. He emphasised that he was not grinding any axe in making this statement, the purpose of which was to correct an unfair conception which his tour had convinced him had developed.
