TRIBUTES TOMORROW
NEXT WEEK'S BUSINESS
Following the customary procedure, Parliament will meet at 2.30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and tributes will be paid to members and ex-members of the General Assembly who have died during the recess. These formalities over, the House will adjourn until 2.30 p.m. on Tuesday, when the usual routine of business will be observed. It is probable that immediately this is disposed of the Imprest Supply Bill, making financial provision for the conduct of the country's services up to a certain period, will be introduced. This measure opens up opportu. ties for discussion on practically any subject, and long argument is almost certain to take place. For this reason, the Prime Minister (the Rt. Hon. M. J Savage) is anxious to have the measure i -.troduced as early as possible. "We don't want to continue -sitting into the early hours of the morning if we have time in the afternoon to spare," he remarked today. Ordinary business will be transacted on Wednesday afternoon, and on Wednesday evening the debate on the Address in Reply will be opened by Mr. J. Thorn (Thames), the mover, and Mr. J. G. Barclay- (Marsden), the seconder. Proceedings will be limited to these two speakers, and the Leader of the ipposition (the Hon Adam Hamilton) will reply on the following day.
