REVOLT IN LABOUR PARTY. MR. SAVAGE’S COMMENT. [Per Press Association]. WELLINGTON, December 14. Rt. Hon. M. J. Savage, emphatically denied a suggestion made in a provincial newspaper to the effect that a revolt had occurred in the Labour Party, which would shortly result in the formation of a definite group with Mr. J. A. Lee as its leader. Mr. Savage said that no one could find a more helpful combination than the Labour Members of Parliament. “The man who plays the game knows more about it than the spectator,” he added. “There would be nobody more surprised than I if anything of this nature happened, because I am looking to the 55 members of the Party to do big things for New Zealand. If anyone wants to know what they think of me, or of the ment, let him say something in the opposite direction, and see how he gets on in the presence of these fellows who are supposed to be in revolt,”
