DAIRY BOARD ELECTION
MR. COBBE COMMENTS. (il TILIORATH— ntn AMOCUtHW.) TE AWAMUTU, This Day. In connection with the Dairy Control Board election,' Mr. Richard Cobbe has received legal advice that there is no power to compel the Minister to issue the roll; the Act makes no such provision, so the Minister can give or withhold. This, Mr. Cobbe contends, virtually places tho Minister in a position to elect any board by his favours. Thi3 serious condition was surely not contemplated by Parliament. A present or future political party should not possess these wide powers, as they put the board under the political control of whatever Government is holding office.
