WORK YET TO BE DONE.
PROMISES FULFILLED. (By Telegraph.—Parliamentary Reporter.) WELLINGTON, Tuesday. "A record worthy of some of our earlier statesmen" was the claim which Mr. Nash made wlien he summarised the extent of the fulfilment of the promises which the Labour Government placed before tlie electors, in concluding his Budget speech to-night. "But it is not enough—legislation is insufficient—much work has still to be done," he added. "The accomplishments will not be recognised until later. We may succeed, we may fail—l think we will succeed. I do know that in the words of a great church leader, 'Hard indeed is t'ne task set before us, and well we know that from this side, and that from the higher social classes and from the lower very many difficulties and obstacles will present themselves to be overcome, but we will not for all that lose heart, nor allow ourselves to be turned from our resolutions.'"
