DAYLIGHT SAVING.
ONE HOUR OR HALF-HOUR ? OBJECTION TO INCREASE. .MR. SIDEY CONSIDERING PLANS.. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this clay. Having circularised members of Parliament and received replies from 1110-t of them, Mr. T. K. Sidey is not hopeful of having the clock advanced one full hour next summer, but there lias been no serious objection to an advance of half an hour being made again. Mr. Sidey is considering the attitude he will take, and an annoiinc ■mint will be made in the course of a f w week-. There is a proposal that in ' winter the clock should be put back halt an hour. He has never advocated such a change himself, and thinks that any saving of daylight in the morning would probably be more than counter-balanced in the evenings, and that in some cases it would accentuate the peak load of the power stations.
