SOLDIERS IN ALL PARISES
LABOUR REQUEST FOR VOTES CENSURED [Peis United Puess Association.] WELLINGTON, November 24. . “ The iittentiou of the headquarters of the Now Zealand Returned Soldiers’ Association has been drawn to a circular issued by Mr J. A. Lee, in collaboration with Mr W. J. Jordan and Mr W. E. Barnard, exhorting returned soldiers to vote for the Labour Party at the forthcoming election,” states the Hon. W. Perry, president of the association. “ Headquarters regrets that three ex-soldier members of Parliament should endeavour to .seek the votes of returned soldiers for their particular party.” _ “ Individual ex-soldiers are standing for every party,” Mr Perry points out, “ and none of them have circularised the returned soldiers to vote for their particular party. Headquarters urges all ex-soldiers to preserve inviolate the principle that the New Zealand Returned Soldiers’ Association is strictly a non-party political organisation.”
