MISSING MACHINE GUN
NEW LYNN INVESTIGATION.
CREEK TO BE DRAGGED.
No trace has yet been found of the Viekers machine gun which was stolen from St. Andrew's Presbyterian Hall, New Lynn, last week. This afternoon detectivee were investigating the matter at New Lynn.
In eome quarters it is considered that the machine gun was removed to annoy the Defence Department, as in the past a section of people has shown some hostility, to the periodical drills and parades held in the borough. A nearby creek and lagoon is to be dragged in the hope that the miesing weapon will be found beneath the water.
