CAMPAIGN URGED.
TO HELP RECRUITING.
WAIRARAPA OPINION.
MINISTER SHOULD OPEjN IT.
(By Telegrapb—Freaa Association)
MASTERTOX, this day.
"That this meeting' of local body representatives in the Wairarapa district is of opinion that the campaign for voluntary enlistment should be opened by the Minister of Defence by means of a public address and that, thereafter, local bodies would willingly assist by all means in their power," was the motion passed yesterday by a meeting of local body representatives in the Wairarapa.
The view- was expressed that the personal appearance of the Minister was desirable. Two of the representatives recorded their votes against the resolution, stating # that it was against their principles to assist the Government in connection with voluntary enlistment, as they regarded compulsory service as the only fair method.
