THE COUNTRY QUOTA
"Is it true that the Government is going to do away with the country quota?" was a question put to Mr. T. H. McCombs at his meeting at West Lyttelton on Thursday night, says "The Press."
"Not if I have any say in it," replied the candidate.

"The way things are arranged alt present suits the Labour Government," he concluded.
