Press Association—By Telegraph —Copyright.
LONDON, January 12. (Received January 13, at noon.) Lord Jellicoe was the guest of the New Zealand luncheon Club at the invitation of the new "overseas section of the Forum Club. In welcoming overseas women visitors Lord Jellicoe paid a tribute to New Zealand’s outstanding loyalty. He said it was always the first to respond whenever Britain asked for assistance in emergencies. Referring to New Zealand’s sporting instincts, he said it probably had more racecourses in proportion to the population than apywhere else in the world, but fortunately it had not started dog racing. New Zealand was recovering from the economic depression. He urged Britain to help by buying New Zealand produce. Anyone in Britain buying Danish butter ought to be shot.
