POINTS FROM LETTERS
"Popeye" (Christchurch ), warts to know why men in the "Senior Service" get the lowest rates of pay. Although they are all volunteers, he says, they do not get enough to enable them to see round when they are on leave im other countries, or to save against the day of their discharge in their own country. "I can see a number of voters, especially the young women, turning in the opposite direction at the coming election unless these men in the navy are paid enough to enable them to marry when they come home."
