POLITICAL UNITY
LEADERS' NEGOTIATIONS
SPEEDY CONCLUSION URGED (P.A.) WELLINGTON, this day. Telegrams have been sent by Mr. James Crisp, of Cambridge, president of the People's movement, to the Prime Minister, Mr. Fraser, and the Leader of the Opposition, Mr. Holland, appealing for a speedy conclusion to their negotiations for the purpose of strengthening the war administration, and avoiding political conflicts. The telegram to Mr. Fraser expresses anxiety over the protracted nature of the negotiations, and assures the loyal co-operation of the People's movement in the objectives at which the efforts are aimed. The telegram to Mr. Holland expresses the view that the war effort will be enormously strengthened if an agreement is reached with Mr. fraser. Both telegrams assert that public opinion favours political unity in war administration, and the maximum utilisation of the national resources for war.
