VICTORIAN STATE ELECTION

* FOR MEDIA WEDNESDAY, 10 FEBRUARY 1982
VICTORIAN STATE ELECTION
April 3 will obviously be an enormously important day
for Victoria. It is a State with many achievements.
Victorians will be choosing whether they are going to
stay with the Party and the Government which has given
them the highest household incomes of any state, the
highest home ownership of any state, the highest
savings bank savings of any state and much more reliable
power than New South Wales; or whether they are
going to turn to the very doubtful quantity of
John Cain and the Socialist Left.
. One thing Victorians will need to understand over
the next few weeks is that the State Labor Party is
controlled by the Socialist Left. They put Mr Cain
in power as Leader of the opposition, and if anyone
thinks Mr Cain would not jump when they told him
what tc: do, then they would be taking a grave risk.
