ARDENT FREE TRADER

ADMITS HIS ERROR, MUST FACE REALITIES Speaking at tho annual meeting of the New Zealand Society held at London last month, Lord Islington said he had still a very vivid recollection of all he did in New Zealand. He had a feeline: of affection for the Dominion, where he had enjoyed three very happy years. He learned to regard its people with deep affection, an affection which be had held ever since. This year, they hoped, was going to see the commencement of a really active movement to promote greater commercial intercourse as between the Dominions, tho colonies and the Homeland. This had been talked about for a good many years. “I never was an opponent to it,” said Lord Islington. “I was an ardent free trader, but, like many others, .1 have seen tho error of my ways. You have got to face the realities of life.”
