POLITICS IN NEW ZEALAND
(To the Editor.) Sir, —I wish to thank. Mr T. E Simpson for his long and interesting reply especially his admission in the first paragraph that Liberalism is the ideal. In his second and third paragraphs he states that nothing is static in this universe except apparently the absence of the Liberal IParty from New Zealand politics. In the next paragraph he admits that in time unless we exterminate ourselves first we will come to a centre path. The fifth paragraph contains a crack at Churchill (irrelevant except to prove that even Winston is changing). Incidentally Mr Churchill had 1 his greatest triumphs when following a path acceptable to both right and left. Finally, Mr Simpson sums' up by dividing electors into left or right, ignoring that increasingly large section who prefer a temperate zone to either a frigid or torrid zone. An MF. speaking at New Plymouth several months ago predicted the advent of a new party composed' of members of both major parties.—l am, etc., A.R.D.
