ONLY ONE TO SUFFER:
"For the past nine, years I haye sat in this House, and during that time 2^ havo only known of two private members' Bills that have been passed," said Mr. .W. J. Jordan (Labour, Manukau) in the House of Eepresentativos last night. "One was the Daylight Saving Bill, and the other was a Bill permitting a man to marry his deceased wife's niece. Well, if I wanted to marry my deceased wife's niece I would do so and not know it was illegal. And I am sure that nobody would mind —except, perhaps, my deceased wife's niece." (Loud laughter.)
