Parliament's meagre contribution to the .Statute Book in the session just concluded provoked Mr. W. J. Holdsworth to indulgence in sardonic humour at the last meeting of the executive of the Auckland Town-Planning Association. A member suggested that congratulations should be extended to the Minister- of Internal Affairs (the Hon. P. A. de la Perrelle) and the director of town-plan-ning (Mr. J. W. Mawson) on the passage of the Town-Planning Amendment Act. In concurring in the suggestion, Mr. Holdsworth said that so little had been put through last session that it seemed well worth while taking notiee of the Act under discussion. Amid laughter Ik added : “This Act and the fact, that you can now marry your deceased’s wife niece were. I think, about the only two things ol moment to go through.”
