NEW POLITICAL PARTY.
DIVERSE OPINIONS.. TWO BODIES OF KEFORMEKS. THE CHOICE OF LEADER. (By Telegraph.— Special to "Star.") WELLINGTON, this day. While Reform opinion evidenced by the "Dominion" hails the new Welfare League approvingly and as deserving of the support of all cane, reasonable people, and as likely to have made a wide field for educative effort, the "New Zealand Times" characterises it as "a landslide affecting Reform foundations." It suggests that there are two bodies of Reformers, who agree on the main issue that there must be a change of leader. Referring to the reported personnel ot tlie Welfare League promoters, tlie "Times"' cays: "What people are mostly dissatisfied ivith at the present moment is the profiteering that has been going on, and the existing unnecessarily liiiili cost of living, but when the name;; of the promoters of this movement are re viewed, it will be found that some of them are m>n who are coneidered to haw profited very much by the hisih prices that have prevailed' during the four years of war. It will be interesting to ccc what proposals they are prepared to make to meet the prevailing discontent."
