SERVICE PERSONNEL
POLITICAL RESTRICTIONS
Reference to an order of the day posted in military establishments imposing certain political restrictions on men in uniform was made in the House of Representatives yesterday afternoon by Mr. H. S. S. Kyle (Independent, Riccarton). Mr. Kyle gave notice to ask the Prime Minister whether this order of the day applied also to all women in uniform, members of the Home Guard, and soldiers on active service abroad. "Should not these regulations, now being strictly enforced by the Government and which are antiquated, be removed so that no unfair distinction between civilians and soldiers will obtain in a wartime election?" he asked.
"There periodic outbreaks of white butterfly are interesting us considerably as they indicate that the pupal parasite which is so well established does not continuously maintain control, although it will eventually reduce any periodic outbreak as has occurred in the last season," stated a letter from the Cawthron Institute received at a meeting of the Ashburton County Council. "Our second parasite, the one attacking the caterpillar, which we have well established in Nelson, will eventually be distributed throughout New Zealand. In the Nelson district, where the pupal parasite and the caterpillar parasite are well established, the white butterfly is at no time common."
