THE WAR CABINET
wno WILL REPRESENT NEW ZEALAND? Some announcement should bo uiado in the course of a few weeks as to who is to represent this country at the next meeting of tho Imperial War Cabinet, to lie held in April of next year. It is «ell understood that Mr. Massey is not going out of New Zealand to atteud it, bo that if New Zealand is to be represented it will havo to be by another Minister, or perhaps by other Ministers. Tho opinion is held that Sir Joseph Ward may go, and that possibly Sir James Allen will accompany him. If another Minister is to accompany Sir Joseph Ward it will almost certainly be the Defence Minister, partly because ho holds this important portfolio, and partly because he is not unknown to tho gentlemen he will havo to meet at the Imperial Cabinet table. Defeneo administration required so much of the attention of the Minister some time ago that it would not porhnps havo been possible for the Government to have allowed Sir James Allen to go, but it should not noit be impossible for another Minister to carry on the work.
