WELLINGTON, June 11. ,'
In. reply to a question put to him to-day by a reporter, the Minister 0: (Defence said that he had received a report upon the experiment made recently in allowing hotels to'remain open when a, troopship arrived. The report wa.s not very definite: In some places the result wfts said to be good, while in others it was bad. ,He had decided to leave things as they were for the present. One point ."which.- required to be made clear was with respect to the regulations' forbidding the supply of liquor to soldiers travelling on troop trains, and the regulations applied also to soktiers who alighted from a troop train at a railway .station. If they got off a train and went across to an hotel they cannot he served with liquor, as they are ■still travelling on a tr^p train.
