Three-year Parliament
Sir,—-Does "Ajax” realise that in his haste to criticise my opinion, he has paid the Labour Party a wonderful tribute? He admits Mr. Hamilton included his party in the appeal for "serious politics” as he ("Ajax”) states Mr. Hamilton "did not only refer to the National Party." Then we have the statement that for “donkey's years” (a term happily chosen by “Ajax” as being in keeping with the period when the Nationalists were in power) the Labour Party were the onlyones to take politics seriously. If “Ajax” moves in a circle which has had a “certain lofty contempt” for the management of the Dominion, then his outlook leaves much to be desired, and, like the National Party, he has been left so far behind (through not taking politics seriously enough in the past) that a complete understanding of to-day's- political requirements is not evident. — I am, etc., OBSERVER. Wanganui, March 16.
