dishonesty i t we will without impairing the efficiency of our armed forces correct the appalling inefficiencies in the administration of the department of national defence we wiff provide the nation with an administration whose attitude towards the spending of public monies will be one of prudence and common sense a new government in itself will mean substantial savings to the taxpayer it will replace a government whose arrogant indifference to economy was best expressed by mr howes scornful remark whats a million or if they need a goldplated piano it is our duty to buy it we will reduce or eliminate countless hidden indirect taxes which grossly inflate the cost of consumer goods add to the grievous cost of living increase the price of homes beyond the capacity of most of our people to
