PASSED BY COUNCIL.
LITTLE COMMENT HEARD. WELLINGTON, this day. . The Legislative Council received the Public Safety Conservation Bill from the House this morning. In moving the second reading, Sir James Parr said the bill had been rendered necessary by the Auckland disturbance and by other facts which had come to the knowledge of the Government. The Government could not stand still while acts of sabotage went on. The Hon. G. J. Smith said the measure should be put on the Statute Book at the earliest opportunity. The Hon. G. Witty said the genuine unemployed had not been responsible for the disturbance. He criticised certain reports, saying they were exaggerated. The bill was put through all stages in lees than three-quarters of an hour.
