A COUNTERBLAST
TO LABOUR LEADER
LORD BLEDISLOE DEFENDED.
SOUTHERN H.B. FARMERS SPEAK OUT.
By Telegraph—Press Association Dannevirke, Oct. 7. The following resolutions were passed by the executive of the Southern Hawke’s Bay Farmers’ Union: “(1) This meeting of Southern Hawke’s Bay farmers wishes to associate itself with the remarks of Lord Bleuisloe on the Ottawa Conference. As regards the recent attack on His Excellency by the leader of the Labour Party, this was merely an expression of the opinion of a few thousands of employees enjoying the benefits of highly protected industries at ruinous cost to the whole State.
‘ ‘ (2) That until members of the Parliamentary Labour Party who defended in Parliament the dastardly outrages at Auckland and elsewhere against life and property are unconditionally expelled this meeting, representing the small farmers of Southern Hawke’s Bay, utterly refutes the opinions expressed by Mr. W. J. Jordan, M.P., which were intended to prove that a rift has occurred in the Farmers’ Union over the Town v. Country controversy. ’ ’
