THE LIFT AND THE RISK

Members of the Farmers’ Union who do not like the new legislation have taken up a peculiar attitude and have successfully sought the aid of the Dominion: executive in getting , back at tile ’Third Party Risk. At . its conference last week in "Welling- I ton the executive of the New Zealand Farmers’ Union passed a remit; j “That any person accepting a. ireo | ride in another person’s car shall do • so only at his or her own risk, with (jut any liability on the owner of flic car.” But of course many farrnars will go on giving their friends and enemies and other folks lifts along the road, just as they' have an way s fed the hungry and other ■ swaggers toiling along tlie high way of life. Fife is full! of risks besides that of the third party and the: good natured will over take them whether j it is an art union ticket- or haejiking , a bill for a friend.
