Miss Howard Does Not Talk Of Floor Polishers
NEW PLYMOUTH, August 1 (P.A.). —“Friends of Opunake, I don’t think we will talk of polishers today; everyone hopes I will lake away pleasant memories of this day, so I won’t speak of polishers,” said the Minister of Health (Miss M. B. Howard) at an official reception before she opened the new Plunket rooms at Opunake today. The Minister said she had been to Taranaki more times than to any other place in her work as a Minister. “I don’t know what the reason for it is, nor how it has happened, but this is not a Labour stronghold,” she added. Miss Howard said the sight of_ Mount Egmont gave her . pleasure’ every time she saw it. “It is an inspiration and seems to take away nasty little things like polish,” she added.
